Enzyme electrophoresis was employed to ascertain the number of loci encoding plastid phosphoglucose isomerase (PGI) in species representing all sections of North American Coreopsis. Several species from each of the closely related genera Bidens, Coreocarpus, Cosmos, and Thelesperma were also examined. Species in nine of the 11 sections of North American Coreopsis have two isozymes for plastid PGI, and nearly all species examined in the four other genera also have two (one species has three) isozymes. Since most diploid vascular plants have one plastid PGI isozyme, a gene duplication probably occurred in an ancestor that is common to Coreopsis and the other four genera. That is, two isozymes represent the ancestral number for Coreopsis. The two sections (Electra and Anathysana) apparently lacking the duplication are closely related woody plants restricted largely to Mexico. One gene encoding plastid PGI ostensibly was silenced in a common ancestor of these two sections. This is concordant with other data suggesting a close relationship between the two sections, i.e., they appear to represent a monophyletic group. The electrophoretic data also indicate that 1) the enigmatic monotypic section Silphidium is more closely related to eastern North American sections and not derived from section Electra; and 2) section Anathysana is not ancestral to the three California sections Leptosyne, Pugiopappus, and Tuckermannia; rather, it represents a terminal element closely related to and possibly derived from section Electra. 相似文献

Background
Prostate cancer (PCa) and colorectal cancer (CRC) are the most commonly diagnosed cancers and cancer-related causes of death in Poland. To date, numerous single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) associated with susceptibility to both cancer types have been identified, but their effect on disease risk may differ among populations.Methods
To identify new SNPs associated with PCa and CRC in the Polish population, a genome-wide association study (GWAS) was performed using DNA sample pools on Affymetrix Genome-Wide Human SNP 6.0 arrays. A total of 135 PCa patients and 270 healthy men (PCa sub-study) and 525 patients with adenoma (AD), 630 patients with CRC and 690 controls (AD/CRC sub-study) were included in the analysis. Allele frequency distributions were compared with t-tests and χ2-tests. Only those significantly associated SNPs with a proxy SNP (p<0.001; distance of 100 kb; r2>0.7) were selected. GWAS marker selection was conducted using PLINK. The study was replicated using extended cohorts of patients and controls. The association with previously reported PCa and CRC susceptibility variants was also examined. Individual patients were genotyped using TaqMan SNP Genotyping Assays.Results
The GWAS selected six and 24 new candidate SNPs associated with PCa and CRC susceptibility, respectively. In the replication study, 17 of these associations were confirmed as significant in additive model of inheritance. Seven of them remained significant after correction for multiple hypothesis testing. Additionally, 17 previously reported risk variants have been identified, five of which remained significant after correction.Conclusion
Pooled-DNA GWAS enabled the identification of new susceptibility loci for CRC in the Polish population. Previously reported CRC and PCa predisposition variants were also identified, validating the global nature of their associations. Further independent replication studies are required to confirm significance of the newly uncovered candidate susceptibility loci. 相似文献5.

Pathogenicity of eight Bacillus strains to seedlings of four cotton cultivars was evaluated under greenhouse conditions. Each of the tested cultivars was individually treated with powdered inoculum of each bacterial strain. Untreated seeds were planted as control treatments in autoclaved soil. Effects of the tested strains on levels and activities of some biochemical components of the infected seedlings were also assayed. The biochemical components included total soluble sugars, total soluble proteins, total free amino acids, peroxidase, polyphenol oxidase, phenols, and lipid peroxidation. ANOVA showed that Bacillus strain (B) was a very highly significant source of variation in damping-off and dry weight. Cotton cultivar (V) was a nonsignificant source of variation in damping-off while it was a significant source of variation in dry weight. B × V interaction was a significant source of variation in damping- off and a nonsignificant source of variation in dry weight. Bacillus strain was the most important source of variation as it accounted for 59.36 and 64.99% of the explained (model) variation in damping-off and dry weight, respectively. The lack of significant correlation between levels and activities of the assayed biochemical components and incidence of damping-off clearly demonstrated that these biochemical components were not involved in the pathogenicity of the tested strains. Therefore, it was hypothesized that the pathogenicity of the tested strains could be due to the effect of cell wall degrading enzymes of pathogenic toxins. Based on the results of the present study, Bacillus strains should be considered in studying the etiology of cotton seedling damping-off. 相似文献

Nitrogen fixation by the unicellular cyanobacterium Gloeothece. Nitrogenase synthesis is only transiently repressed by oxygen 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

Abstract The extent of recovery of nitrogenase activity of Gloeothece transferred from an atmosphere of O2 to air depended on the duration of exposure to O2 . Activity recovered at increasing rates after up to 24 h exposure to O2 and a lag before detection of activity, present after short (1 h) exposure times, disappeared with longer exposures. Synthesis of nitrogenase de novo was implicated, since chloramphenicol, tetracycline, or repressive levels of NH+ 4 , prevented recovery of activity. Specific radioimmunoassay of the rate of synthesis of the MoFe protein of nitrogenase under O2 correlated well with the activity measurements, and indicate that a shift from air to O2 only transiently represses nitrogenase synthesis. 相似文献

Structure and dynamics in DNA looped domains: CAG triplet repeat sequence dynamics probed by 2-aminopurine fluorescence 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
The triplet repeat sequence (CAG)n and related triplet repeats are associated with dynamic DNA mutations implicated in a number of debilitating human diseases. To gain insight into the dynamics of the (CAG)n repeat, we have substituted a single 2-aminopurine (2AP) fluorescent base for adenine at select positions within the 18 base looped domain of a (GC)3(CAG)6(GC)3 hairpin oligonucleotide. Using temperature-dependent steady-state fluorescence measurements in combination with time correlated photon counting spectroscopy, we show the conformation and dynamics of the C2APG domains to be strongly dependent on the position of the probe in the looped region. In other words, rather than being a uniform, single stranded loop, the (CAG)6 triplet repeat looped domain exhibits order and dynamics that are position dependent. The 2AP fluorescence dynamics within the C2APG repeat are well described by a 4 component exponential decay model, with lifetimes ranging from 5 ps to 4 ns. Differences in global DNA conformation (duplex, hairpin, single strand), as well as the local position of the probe within the loop of a given hairpin, predominantly are reflected in the relative amplitude rather than the lifetime of the probe. The time dependent 2AP anisotropy in the hairpin (CAG)n loops is sensitive to the position of the fluorescent base, with the fluorescence depolarization of a centrally located 2AP probe within the loop proceeding significantly more slowly than 2AP positioned at the 5'- or 3'-end of the repeat sequence near the loop-stem junction. These results are consistent with segmental motions of the CAG repeat, while also suggesting that the 2AP probe is significantly stacked, possibly even hydrogen bonded, within the partially structured CAG looped domain. Our results characterize the position-dependent and conformation-dependent dynamics and order within (CAG)n triplet repeat DNAs, properties of relevance to the biological mechanisms by which such domains can lead to disease states. 相似文献

1. Within a region with common climatic conditions, lake thermal variables should exhibit coherent variability patterns to the extent to which they are not influenced by lake specific features such as morphometry and water clarity. We tested the degree of temporal coherence in interannual variability for climatic variables (air temperature and solar radiation) among four lake districts in the Upper Great Lakes Region. We also tested the degree of coherence of lake thermal variables (near‐surface temperature, eplimnetic temperature, hypolimnetic temperature and thermocline depth) for lakes within these districts. 2. Our four lake districts included the Experimental Lakes Area in north‐western Ontario, the Dorset Research Centre area north of Toronto, Ontario, the Northern Highland Lake District in northern Wisconsin, and the Yahara Lakes near Madison in southern Wisconsin. Seventeen lakes were analyzed for lake thermal variables dependent on stratification. Another five lakes were added for the analysis of near‐surface temperature. 3. The analysis tested whether for monthly and summer means, the climate (air temperature and solar radiation) across the four lake districts was coherent interannually and whether variables which measure the thermal structure of the lakes were coherent interannually among lakes within each lake district and across the four lake districts. 4. Temporal coherence was estimated by the correlation between lake districts for meteorological variables and between lake pairs for lake thermal variables. Mean coherence and the percentage of correlations exceeding the 5% significance level were derived both within and between lake districts for lake thermal variables. 5. Across the four lake districts, summer mean air temperature was highly coherent while summer solar radiation was less coherent. Approximately 60–80% of the interannual variation in mean summer air temperature at a site occurred across the entire region. Less than 45% of the variation in solar radiation occurred across sites. 6. Epilimnetic temperature and the near‐surface temperature were highly coherent both within and between lake districts. The coherence of thermocline depth within and between lake districts was weaker. Hypolimnetic temperature was not coherent between lake districts for most lake pairs. It was coherent among lakes within some lake districts. 7. The influences of local weather and differences among lakes in water clarity are discussed in the context of differences in levels of coherence among lake thermal variables and among lake pairs for a given variable. 相似文献
