A 55-year-old man was admitted to the hospital for an elective herniorrhaphy. A significant past history of smoking and alcohol abuse was noted. The patient had no other complaints but a routine chest X-ray revealed an isolated left upper lobe mass. Laboratory tests were unrevealing and the impression was that the patient had a carcinoma. The surgical specimen consisted of a lobular mass containing multiple microabscesses. Grains consistent with actinomycosis were seen and the cultures grew out Actinomyces meyeri. There was no other evidence of disease. 相似文献

To identify structural characteristics of the closely related cell surface receptors for insulin and IGF-I that define their distinct physiological roles, we determined the complete primary structure of the human IGF-I receptor from cloned cDNA. The deduced sequence predicts a 1367 amino acid receptor precursor, including a 30-residue signal peptide, which is removed during translocation of the nascent polypeptide chain. The 1337 residue, unmodified proreceptor polypeptide has a predicted Mr of 151,869, which compares with the 180,000 Mr IGF-I receptor precursor. In analogy with the 152,784 Mr insulin receptor precursor, cleavage of the Arg-Lys-Arg-Arg sequence at position 707 of the IGF-I receptor precursor will generate alpha (80,423 Mr) and beta (70,866 Mr) subunits, which compare with approximately 135,000 Mr (alpha) and 90,000 Mr (beta) fully glycosylated subunits. 相似文献

OSIPP3 gene (coding for pectin methylesterase inhibitor protein) was isolated from a pre-pollinated inflorescence-specific cDNA library by differential screening of stage-specific libraries from Oryza sativa. OSIPP3 is present in the genome of rice as a single copy gene. OSIPP3 gene was expressed exclusively in the pre-pollinated spikelets of rice. Upstream regulatory region (URR) of OSIPP3 was isolated and a series of 5′-deletions were cloned upstream of GUS reporter gene and were used to transform Arabidopsis. OSIPP3_del1 and del2 transgenic plants showed GUS expression in root, anther and silique, while OSIPP3_del3 showed GUS activity only in anthers and siliques. Pollen-specific expression was observed in case of plants harboring OSIPP3_del4 construct. It can, therefore, be concluded that the OSIPP3 URR between ?178 and +108 bp is necessary for conferring pollen-specific expression in Arabidopsis. 相似文献

Computational modeling is employed to provide a plausible structural explanation for the experimentally-observed differential global genome repair (GGR) propensity of the ALII-N2-dG and ALII-N6-dA DNA adducts of aristolochic acid II. Our modeling studies suggest that an intrinsic twist at the carcinogen–purine linkage of ALII-N2-dG induces lesion site structural perturbations and conformational heterogeneity of damaged DNA. These structural characteristics correlate with the relative repair propensities of AA-adducts, where GGR recognition occurs for ALII-N2-dG, but is evaded for intrinsically planar ALII-N6-dA that minimally distorts DNA and restricts the conformational flexibility of the damaged duplex. The present analysis on the ALII adduct model systems will inspire future experimental studies on these adducts, and thereby may extend the list of structural factors that directly correlate with the propensity for GGR recognition. 相似文献

A trial was conducted to determine the efficacy of termiticidal dusts (arsenic trioxide, triflumuron, and Metarhizium anisopliae), a timber fumigant (dazomet) and liquid termiticides (bifenthrin, chlorfenapyr, chlorpyrifos, fipronil, and imidacloprid) for controlling subterranean termites (Isoptera: Rhinotermitidae) infesting in-service power poles in New South Wales, Australia. Dusts were applied to parts of the pole where termites were present. Fumigant was inserted into holes drilled into the base of the pole. Liquid termiticides were mixed with soil around the base of the pole and injected into internal voids if present. Poles were inspected for up to 5 yr, and the time taken for reinfestation to occur was recorded. Before the start of the trial, the major Australian pole owners were surveyed to obtain an estimate of the annual national cost of termite infestation to the power supply industry. The annual costs of termite treatment and replacing damaged poles were estimated at AU$2 million and AU$13 million, respectively. Infestation rates were lower for all treatments compared with controls within the first 12 mo of the study. Dazomet, arsenic trioxide, fipronil, and chlorpyrifos were the most efficacious treatments. Efficacy was positively related to the amount of termiticide applied and negatively related to the infestation severity but was unaffected by geographical location. Survival curves were calculated of the time elapsed before the recurrence of termite infestations (survival absence of reinfestation). Survival was highest for poles treated with liquid termiticides. 相似文献

Our earlier investigations culminated in the discovery of a unique membrane-bound enzyme Calreticulin transacetylase (CRTAase) in mammalian cells catalyzing the transfer of acetyl group from polyphenolic acetates (PAs) to certain functional proteins viz. Glutathione S-transferase (GST), NADPH Cytochrome c reductase and Nitric oxide synthase (NOS) resulting in the modulation of their biological activities. In order to develop SAR study, herein, we studied the influence of alkyl group at C-3 position of acetoxy coumarins on the CRTAase activity. The alkylated acetoxy coumarins lead to inhibition of catalytic activity of GST, and ADP induced platelet aggregation by the way of activation of platelet Nitric oxide synthase (NOS). Furthermore, the increase in size of the coumarin C-3 alkyl group was found to decrease the CRTAase activity. 相似文献

Small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) is a powerful method for obtaining quantitative structural information on the size and shape of proteins, and it is increasingly used in kinetic studies of folding and association reactions. In this minireview, we discuss recent developments in using SAXS to obtain structural information on the unfolded ensemble and early folding intermediates of proteins using continuous-flow mixing devices. Interfacing of these micromachined devices to SAXS beamlines has allowed access to the microsecond time regime. The experimental constraints in implementation of turbulence and laminar flow-based mixers with SAXS detection and a comparison of the two approaches are presented. Current improvements and future prospects of microsecond time-resolved SAXS and the synergy with ab initio structure prediction and molecular dynamics simulations are discussed. 相似文献

According to several epidemiological and clinical studies, the concentration of C-reactive protein (CRP) in blood is associated with the risk of coronary heart disease (CHD). However, these studies are limited in high incidence and prevalence area of North-West India. The present case control study investigated the contribution of three relevant CRP single nucleotide polymorphisms: ?717A>G located in the promoter region (rs2794521), +1059G>C on exon2 (rs1800947) and +1444C>T in the 3′ UTR (rs1130864) in 180 angiographically verified CHD cases and 175 control subjects. Minor allele frequencies (G, C and T) of rs2794521, rs1800947 and rs1130864 are observed to be 21.1, 11.7, 29.4 and 11.4, 10.0, 19.7 % in CHD cases and controls respectively. AA genotype of ?717A>G and TT genotype of +1444C>T were significantly associated (P = 0.02 & 0.03 respectively) with the risk of CHD whereas, +1059G and +1444T were found to be strongly related (P = 0.023 & P = 0.008 respectively) with multivariable adjusted CRP levels. AGT Haplotype was significantly associated with the adjusted CRP levels (P < 0.05). Disease association analysis revealed that haplotype AGT influences CHD risk (OR 2.4, 95 % CI 1.23–4.84, P = 0.006) which exacerbates after correcting the confounding effects of risk variables (OR 2.5, 95 % CI 1.27–4.99, P = 0.004). With the global index of Akaike information criterion, it has been observed that the carrying each single unit of this susceptibility haplotype increases CHD risk by a value of 2.41 ± 0.439 (β ± SE) in the recessive mode. 相似文献
