电损毁海马CA3区及连合前穹窿对大鼠血浆胰岛素水平...

Bilateral electrical lesioning of the hippocampal CA3 region (HCA3-EL) or anterior commissura hippocampi (ACHF-EL) caused marked elevations in plasma basal levels of insulin. 2 weeks later, fasting blood glucose levels were also augmented with decreased glucose tolerance. In contrast, the secretory response of pancreatic B cells to glucose stimulation was markedly enhanced. Following intravenous glucose tolerance test (IVGTT), the relative amounts of glucagon-like and insulin-like immunoreactants were reduced in the pancreatic islets of both HCA3-EL and ACHF-EL rats in comparison with the controls. In the HCA3-EL group, the relative amounts of somatostatin-like immunoreactants and gross numbers of such immunostained cells in islets were also decreased as compared with the control. No difference was seen in pancreatic-polypeptide-like immunoreactivities as assessed by immunohistochemistry plus microphotometry method. The above results suggest strongly that HCA3 and ACHF exert a tonic inhibitory action on the insulin secretion in the rat.     

In vivo regulatory phosphorylation site in c(4)-leaf phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase from maize and sorghum

Reversible seryl-phosphorylation contributes to the light/dark regulation of C₄-leaf phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase (PEPC) activity in vivo. The specific regulatory residue that, upon in vitro phosphorylation by a maize-leaf protein-serine kinase(s), leads to an increase in catalytic activity and a decrease in malate-sensitivity of the target enzyme has been recently identified as Ser-15 in ³²P-phosphorylated/activated dark-form maize PEPC (J-A Jiao, R Chollet [1990] Arch Biochem Biophys 283: 300-305). In order to ascertain whether this N-terminal seryl residue is, indeed, the in vivo regulatory phosphorylation site, [³²P]phosphopeptides were isolated and purified from in vivo ³²P-labeled maize and sorghum leaf PEPC and subjected to automated Edman degradation analysis. The results show that purified light-form maize PEPC contains 14-fold more ³²P-radioactivity than the corresponding dark-form enzyme on an equal protein basis and, more notably, only a single N-terminal serine residue (Ser-15 in maize PEPC and its structural homolog, Ser-8, in the sorghum enzyme) was found to be ³²P-phosphorylated in the light or dark. These in vivo observations, combined with the results from our previous in vitro phosphorylation studies (J-A Jiao, R Chollet [1989] Arch Biochem Biophys 269: 526-535; [1990] Arch Biochem Biophys 283: 300-305), demonstrate that an N-terminal seryl residue in C₄ PEPC is, indeed, the regulatory site that undergoes light/dark changes in phosphorylation-status and, thus, plays a major, if not cardinal role in the light-induced changes in catalytic and regulatory properties of this cytoplasmic C₄-photosynthesis enzyme in vivo.

氯化镧对玉米根切段钾离子外渗影响的动力学研究

研究了氯化镧对玉米(Zea mays L.)“京早8号”根切段细胞膜透性及质子分泌的影响,并用动力学方法研究了钾离子外渗过程的变化。氯化镧处理可降低外渗液的电导率及K~ 和糖的外渗量,使质子分泌活动增强。用动力学方法分析玉米根切段K~ 外渗过程的结果表明:(1)应用于K~ 吸收研究的数学模型也能适应于K~ 外渗的研究;(2)在LaCl_3和(或)CaCl_2存在的条件下,最大吸收速度(V_(max))升高,而米氏常数(K_m)没有变化;(3)在LaCl_3和(或)CaCl_2存在的条件下,K~ 外渗量降低是由于最大吸收速度(V_(max))升高所致。

On line estimation of oxygen uptake rate for insect cells growing in a modified spinner flask

The simple design of traditional spinner flasks makes the on-line estimation of cellular metabolism impossible. An on-line estimation system has been developed and used for the monitoring of oxygen uptake rate (OUR) for insect cells growing in a modified spinner flask. Neglect of oxygen desorption from culture media is a common source of error in OUR measurements for Sf21 cells. Therefore, an algorithm was developed to compensate for the affect of such desorption process on the determination of OUR. A modified spinner flask was successfully used as a low-volume bioreactor for insect cell cultivation and the OUR measurement developed here is both convenient and reliable.

From ten genera and 146 bacterial strains, 22 strains producing alpha-amino acid ester hydrolase were selected. Among them, AS 1.586 and 41-2 were the best. The optimal conditions for synthesis of cephalexin by pseudomonas aeruginosa 1.204 were investigated. The optimal pH and temperature for enzymatic synthesis reaction was pH 6.8 and 25 degrees C, respectively. By using 1% 7-ADCA, 3% PGME and 4% biomass, about 70% of 7-ADCA was converted to cephalexin under the mentioned conditions.
