It has earlier been shown that multiple positioning of nucleosomes on mouse satellite DNA is determined by its nucleotide sequence. To clarify whether other factors, such as boundary ones, can affect the positionings, we modified the environment of satellite DNA monomer by inserting it into a yeast plasmid between inducible GalCyc promoter and a structural region of the yeast FLP gene. We have revealed that the positions of nucleosomes on satellite DNA are identical to those detected upon reconstruction in vitro. The positioning signal (GAAAAA sequence) of satellite DNA governs nucleosome location at the adjacent nucleotide sequence as well. Upon promoter induction the nucleosome, translationally positioned on the GalCyc promoter, transfers to the satellite DNA and its location follows the positioning signal of the latter. Thus, the alternatives of positioning of a nucleosome on satellite DNA are controlled by its nucleotide sequence, though the choice of one of them is determined by the adjacent nucleosome. 相似文献

Changes in chromatin structure at different stages of differentiation of human spermatids were studied. It was shown that,
in nuclei of early spermatids, chromatin is loosely packed and its structural element is an 8-nm fiber. This “elementary”
fiber is predominant at the initial stages of differentiation; in the course of maturation, it is replaced by globular elements
approximately 60 nm in diameter. In intermediate spermatids, these globules start to condense into fibrillar aggregates and
reduce their diameter to 30–40 nm. At all stages of spermatid maturation, except the final stages, these globules are convergence
centers for elementary fibers. This remodelling process is vectored and directed from the apical (acrosomal) to the basal
pole of the nucleus. In mature spermatids, the elementary 8-nm fibers are almost absent and the major components are 40-nm
fibrillar aggregates. The nuclei of mature spermatids are structurally identical with the nuclei of spermatozoa with the so-called
“immature chromatin,” which are commonly found in a low proportion in sperm samples from healthy donors and may prevail over
the normal cells in spermiogenetic disorders. The cause of this differentiation blockade remains unknown. Possibly, the formation
of intermolecular bonds between protamines, which are required for the final stages of chromatin condensation, is blocked
in a part of spermatids. The results of this study are discussed in comparison with the known models of nucleoprotamine chromatin
organization in human spermatozoa. 相似文献

Typical preparation of seed samples for infrared (IR) microspectroscopy involves imbibition of the seed for varying time periods followed by cryosectioning. Imbibition, however, may initiate germination even at 4° C with associated changes in the chemistry of the sample. We have found that it is possible to section seeds that are sufficiently hard, such as soybeans, on a standard laboratory microtome without imbibition. The use of dry sectioning of unimbibed seeds is reported here, as well as a comparison of different mounting media and modes of analysis. Glycerol, Tissue-Tek, and ethanol were used as mounting media, and the quality of the resulting spectra was assessed. Ethanol was the preferred mountant, because it dried quickly with no residue and thus did not interfere with the spectrum of interest. Analysis in transmission mode using barium fluoride windows to hold the samples was compared with transmission-reflection analysis with sections mounted on special infrared-reflecting slides. The two modes of analysis performed well in different regions of the spectrum. The mode of analysis (transmission vs. transmission-reflection) should be based on the components of greatest interest in the sample. 相似文献

Background
Theracyte is a polytetrafluoroethylene membrane macroencapsulation system designed to induce neovascularization at the tissue interface, protecting the cells from host's immune rejection, thereby circumventing the problem of limited half-life and variation in circulating levels. Endostatin is a potent inhibitor of angiogenesis and tumor growth. Continuous delivery of endostatin improves the efficacy and potency of the antitumoral therapy. The purpose of this study was to determine whether recombinant fibroblasts expressing endostatin encapsulated in Theracyte immunoisolation devices can be used for delivery of this therapeutic protein for treatment of mice bearing B16F10 melanoma and Ehrlich tumors. 相似文献6.
