mtDNA diversity in rhesus monkeys reveals overestimates of divergence time and paraphyly with neighboring species 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
Reconstructions of the human-African great ape phylogeny by using
mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) have been subject to considerable debate. One
confounding factor may be the lack of data on intraspecific variation. To
test this hypothesis, we examined the effect of intraspecific mtDNA
diversity on the phylogenetic reconstruction of another Plio- Pleistocene
radiation of higher primates, the fascicularis group of macaque (Macaca)
monkey species. Fifteen endonucleases were used to identify 10 haplotypes
of 40-47 restriction sites in M. mulatta, which were compared with similar
data for the other members of this species group. Interpopulational,
intraspecific mtDNA diversity was large (0.5%- 4.5%), and estimates of
divergence time and branching order incorporating this variation were
substantially different from those based on single representatives of each
species. We conclude that intraspecific mtDNA diversity is substantial in
at least some primate species. Consequently, without prior information on
the extent of genetic diversity within a particular species, intraspecific
variation must be assessed and accounted for when reconstructing primate
phylogenies. Further, we question the reliability of hominoid mtDNA
phylogenies, based as they are on one or a few representatives of each
species, in an already depauperate superfamily of primates.

Summary Specific glucose and xylose isomerases have been identified in cell-free culture filtrates of a Chainia species. Treatment with DEAE-cellulose selectively adsorbed xylose isomerase activity while only the glucose isomerase was adsorbed on CM-cellulose. Glucose isomerase was completely inhibited by xylose at 1.3 × 10-4 M concentration. The differential identity of the extracellular glucose and xylose isomerases, unique to Chainia, is discussed.(NCL Communication 3562) 相似文献

A simple apparatus for vertical.,in situ, polyacrylamide or agarose gel casting as well as for the subsequent electrophoresis is described. The apparatus is completely
leakproof and does not require any special device like clamps, O-rings, gaskets, grease etc. for sealing. Slab gels of various
thickness (0.04 to 1.0 cm) can be made and the apparatus can be used for analytical or preparative purposes. Gel rods can
also be cast and run in the device. Forward as well as reverse polarity electrophoresis of a sample can be run simultaneously
in the apparatus.

A strain of Basidiobolus (N.C.L. 97.1.1) was isolated from plant detritus which secreted alkaline protease optimally active at pH 10.0. It is the first report of a protease from Basidiobolus, which is stable to and active under high alkaline conditions. When incubated under stationary conditions in broth cultures containing salts such as ammonium chloride, 'darmform' morphogenesis was readily induced through enlargement and internal division of the hyphal segments. Secretion of high activity alkaline protease was obtained in cultures initiated with darmform morphogenesis whereas cultures initiated from mycelial inocula grew as large pellets in submerged cultures, with little or no protease secretion. Cultural conditions favoring alkaline protease secretion have been optimized and a preliminary characterization of the enzyme is presented. Compatibility of the alkaline protease with commercial detergents as well as its potential application in recovering silver from spent photographic films have also been investigated. 相似文献

A simple device is developed for mini-scale electrofocusing of proteins. The main apparatus consists of only two glass tubes
joined by a small tubing. No special cooling system, stopcocks, stands, etc., are needed. Even the need for a peristaltic
pump for fractionation is eliminated. The apparatus does not require very high voltages and the amount of Ampholines is drastically
reduced. The model can be used for analytical as well as semi-quantitative purposes. 相似文献

The Ser/Thr protein kinase PINK1 phosphorylates the well‐folded, globular protein ubiquitin (Ub) at a relatively protected site, Ser65. We previously showed that Ser65 phosphorylation results in a conformational change in which Ub adopts a dynamic equilibrium between the known, common Ub conformation and a distinct, second conformation wherein the last β‐strand is retracted to extend the Ser65 loop and shorten the C‐terminal tail. We show using chemical exchange saturation transfer (CEST) nuclear magnetic resonance experiments that a similar, C‐terminally retracted (Ub‐CR) conformation also exists at low population in wild‐type Ub. Point mutations in the moving β5 and neighbouring β‐strands shift the Ub/Ub‐CR equilibrium. This enabled functional studies of the two states, and we show that while the Ub‐CR conformation is defective for conjugation, it demonstrates improved binding to PINK1 through its extended Ser65 loop, and is a superior PINK1 substrate. Together our data suggest that PINK1 utilises a lowly populated yet more suitable Ub‐CR conformation of Ub for efficient phosphorylation. Our findings could be relevant for many kinases that phosphorylate residues in folded protein domains. 相似文献

Background
The Evidence-Based Practice (EBP) Project has been investigating the implementation of evidence-based mental health practices (Assertive Community Treatment, Family Psychoeducation, Integrated Dual Diagnosis Treatment, Illness Management and Recovery, and Supported Employment) in state public mental health systems in the United States since 2001. To date, Project findings have yielded valuable insights into implementation strategy characteristics and effectiveness. This paper reports results of an effort to identify and classify state-level implementation activities and strategies employed across the eight states participating in the Project.Methods
Content analysis and Greenhalgh et al's (2004) definition of innovation were used to identify and classify state-level activities employed during three phases of EBP implementation: Pre-Implementation, Initial Implementation and Sustainability Planning. Activities were coded from site visit reports created from documents and notes from key informant interviews conducted during two periods, Fall 2002 – Spring 2003, and Spring 2004. Frequency counts and rank-order analyses were used to examine patterns of implementation activities and strategies employed across the three phases of implementation.Results
One hundred and six discreet implementation activities and strategies were identified as innovative and were classified into five categories: 1) state infrastructure building and commitment, 2) stakeholder relationship building and communications, 3) financing, 4) continuous quality management, and 5) service delivery practices and training. Implementation activities from different categories were employed at different phases of implementation.Conclusion
Insights into effective strategies for implementing EBPs in mental health and other health sectors require qualitative and quantitative research that seeks to: a) empirically test the effects of tools and methods used to implement EBPs, and b) establish a stronger evidence-base from which to plan, implement and sustain such efforts. This paper offers a classification scheme and list of innovative implementation activities and strategies. The classification scheme offers potential value for future studies that seek to assess the effects of various implementation processes, and helps establish widely accepted standards and criteria that can be used to assess the value of innovative activities and strategies. 相似文献10.
A simple, inexpensive acrylate polymer which has a capacity to absorb 170 ml of water per g has been developed. It can be used to concentrate dilute solutions of macromolecules such as proteins, nucleic acids, and carbohydrates. The polymer absorbs only low-molecular-weight substances such as glucose, sucrose, and inorganic salts. It can replace the various conventional concentration methods. No special device or electricity is needed for the concentration. The inexpensive polymer, molded in the form of rods, can be very conveniently used as “disposable concentration sticks.” 相似文献
