The effect of lincocin (a plastid protein synthesis inhibitor) treatment on the greening process of bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) leaves have been studied. In comparison with control leaves treated ones had a decreased rate of chloroplast development. They had a marked chlorophyll deficiency and a decreased chlorophyll a/b ratio. Some long and short wavelength forms of chlorophyll a were lacking as evidenced from the absorption spectra at 25°C and the fluorescence spectra at 77°K. The –14CO2 fixation was inhibited by 80–90% in treated leaves. The fluorescence induced by the measuring light was greater in the treated leaves than in the control ones, and the kinetics of the decline of the relative fluorescence intensity were also different. Electron microscopic studies showed macrogranum-like structures and incomplete membrane vesicles in the treated plastids. After longer treatment a destruction of membranes was observed. The results indicate some structural and functional membrane deficiencies and instability of the membranes. 相似文献

Summary The larval development of the ophiocomid ophiuroid Ophiomastix venosais described using SEM. The gastrula transforms into a uniformly ciliated early larva which progressively changes into a lecithotrophic late premetamorphic larva with a continuous bilateral ciliated band. This stage is short-lived and equivalent to a highly reduced ophiopluteus. Comparisons between O. venosa and other ophiuroid species whose development has been investigated suggest that, whatever the developmental mode (lecithotrophic or planktotrophic), a pluteus stage always occurs in ophiuroids with planktonic development. Two metamorphic stages were identified, the late metamorphic larva differing from the early one by the closure of the larval mouth. The appearance of the permanent mouth marks the end of the metamorphosis. The postlarva still possesses remnants of larval features. The transformation of the reduced ophiopluteus into a barrel-shaped metamorphic larva with transverse ciliated bands, a vitellaria larva, is followed. The possible occurrence of a unique type of metamorphic larva in non-brooding ophiuroids is discussed. Verification of this, however, needs further SEM investigations on metamorphic larva from species having “regular” planktotrophic development. 相似文献

These studies examined the importance of phospholipase Cbeta (PLCbeta) in the calcium responses of pituitary cells using PLCbeta3 knockout mice. Pituitary tissue from wild-type mice contained PLCbeta1 and PLCbeta3 but not PLCbeta2 or PLCbeta4. Both Galphaq/11 and Gbetagamma can activate PLCbeta3, whereas only Galphaq/11 activates PLCss1 effectively. In knockout mice, PLCbeta3 was absent, PLCbeta1 was not up-regulated, and PLCbeta2 and PLCbeta4 were not expressed. Since somatostatin inhibited influx of extracellular calcium in pituitary cells from wild-type and PLCbeta3 knockout mice, the somatostatin signal pathway was intact. However, somatostatin failed to increase intracellular calcium in pituitary cells from either wild-type or knockout mice under a variety of conditions, indicating that it did not stimulate PLCbeta3. In contrast, somatostatin increased intracellular calcium in aortic smooth muscle cells from wild-type mice, although it evoked no calcium response in cells from PLCbeta3 knockout animals These results show that somatostatin, like other Gi/Go-linked hormones, can stimulate a calcium transient by activating PLCbeta3 through Gbetagamma, but this response does not normally occur in pituitary cells. The densities of Gi and Go, as well as the relative concentrations of PLCbeta1 and PLCbeta3, were similar in cells that responded to somatostatin with an increase in calcium and pituitary cells. Calcium responses to 1 nM and 1 microM TRH and GnRH were identical in pituitary cells from wild-type and PLCbeta3 knockout mice, as were responses to other Gq-linked agonists. These results show that in pituitary cells, PLCbeta1 is sufficient to transmit signals from Gq-coupled hormones, whereas PLCbeta3 is required for the calcium-mobilizing actions of somatostatin observed in smooth muscle cells. 相似文献

Acceptor specificity of the human leukocyte alpha3 fucosyltransferase: role of FucT-VII in the generation of selectin ligands 总被引:2,自引:2,他引:0

The alpha3 fucosyltransferase, FucT-VII, is one of the key
glycosyltransferases involved in the biosynthesis of the sialyl Lewis X
(sLex) antigen on human leukocytes. The sialyl Lewis X antigen
(NeuAcalpha(2-3)Galbeta(1-4)[Fucalpha(1-3)]GlcNAc-R) is an essential
component of the recruitment of leukocytes to sites of inflammation,
mediating the primary interaction between circulating leukocytes and
activated endothelium. In order to characterize the enzymatic properties of
the leukocyte alpha3 fucosyltransferase FucT-VII, the enzyme has been
expressed in Trichoplusia ni insect cells. The enzyme is capable of
synthesizing both sLexand sialyl-dimeric-Lexstructures in vitro , from
3'-sialyl-lacNAc and VIM-2 structures, respectively, with only low levels
of fucose transfer observed to neutral or 3'-sulfated acceptors. Studies
using fucosylated NeuAcalpha(2-3)-(Galbeta(1- 4)GlcNAc)3-Me acceptors
demonstrate that FucT-VII is able to synthesize both di-fucosylated and
tri-fucosylated structures from mono- fucosylated precursors, but
preferentially fucosylates the distal GlcNAc within a polylactosamine
chain. Furthermore, the rate of fucosylation of the internal GlcNAc
residues is reduced once fucose has been added to the distal GlcNAc. These
results indicate that FucT-VII is capable of generating complex selectin
ligands, in vitro , however the order of fucose addition to the lactosamine
chain affects the rate of selectin ligand synthesis.
