The Effects of Temperature on Blepharisma intermedium

SYNOPSIS. An initial rise in temperature increases the reproductive rate in Blepharisma intermedium; after it reaches the maximum, it gradually declines and finally fission is blocked. Cytochemical investigations made on Blepharisma acclimated to 28 C—the temperature at which the reproductive rate is maximum—show that conditions are optimum for cell division. Requisite quantities of glycogen, basic proteins, unsaturated lipids, enzymes alkaline and acid phosphatases are present. At 38 C the cell metabolism is altered, there is a decrease in the quantity of glycogen reserves, proteins and lipids, the enzyme activity diminishes, the free amino acid pattern changes and cell division is blocked. However, this block is transitory. Upon return to room temperature and when fresh culture medium is added, after a lag of 3 days, the cell metabolism becomes normal and the ciliates resume fission.     

光和GA_3诱导番茄种子萌发过程中内源ABA的变化

外源GA_3和红光都能有效地诱导台湾红番茄种子萌发;外源ABA对光诱导萌发有明显的抑制作用。白光和红光诱导萌发过程中内源ABA水平急剧降低,而在黑暗或远红光下则一直保持在与风干种子中原有的高水平。1 mol/L HCl酸化1h后加100 ppm GA_3诱导萌发时内源ABA含量也随培养时间的延续而明显下降。     

德巴利汉逊酵母的两个变种及其相关种的脉冲电泳核型比较分析

摘要:用CHEF(钳位均匀电场)脉冲电泳系统分析了德巴利汉逊酵母的两个变种及两个相关种的脉冲电泳核型。对每个分类群的染色体条数,染色体DNA的分子量大小范围及整个基因组大小作出了估算,结果如下:Debaryomyces hansenii(Zopf) Lodder et Kreger-van Rij var. hansenii具有6-7条染色体,分子量范围为1.2-2.6(个别3.5)Mb,整个基因组大小为I 0.6-14.9Mb;D. hansenii var. fabryi (Ota) Nakase et Suzuki具有7条染色体,分子量范围为0.7-2.4M b,整个基因组大小为12.0-12.7Mb;D. nepalensis Goto et Sugiyama具有6-8条染色体,分子量范围为(个别0.2)1.1-2.7Mb,整个基因组大小为10.6-11.0Mb;Candida saitoana Nakase et Suzuki具有10-11条染色体,分子量范围为0.6-3.6Mb,整个基因组大小为18.1-18.9Mb.本研究表明C. saitoana与上述德巴利酵母属的三个分类群在脉冲电泳核型上具有明显差异,而后三者之间在染色体DNA带型上却没有发现有价值的区别之处.

Modulation of Adenylylcyclase by Protein Kinase C in Human Neurotumor SK-N-MC Cells: Evidence that the α Isozyme Mediates Both Potentiation and Desensitization

Abstract: Exposure of human SK-N-MC neurotumor cells to 4β-phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) increased isoproterenol stimulation of cyclic AMP levels by severalfold. This potentiation was blocked by inhibitors of protein kinase C (PKC) and did not occur in cells in which PKC had been down-regulated. PMA treatment also enhanced the stimulation by dopamine, cholera toxin, and forskolin. Thus, the effect of PMA on the adenylylcyclase system was postreceptor and involved either the guanine nucleotide binding regulatory (G) proteins or the cyclase itself. As PMA treatment did not impair the inhibition of isoproterenol stimulation by neuropeptide Y, an involvement of the inhibitory G protein G_i was unlikely. Cholate extracts of membranes from control and PMA-treated cells were equally effective in the reconstitution of adenylylcyclase activity in S49 cyc^? membranes, which lack the stimulatory G protein subunit G_sα; thus, G_s did not appear to be the target of PMA action. Membranes from PMA-treated cells exhibited increased adenylylcyclase activity to all stimulators including Mn²⁺ and Mn²⁺ plus forskolin. In addition, activity was increased when control membranes were incubated with ATP and purified PKC from rat brain. This is consistent with a direct effect of PKC on the adenylylcyclase catalyst in SK-N-MC cells. PMA treatment also resulted in a shift to less sensitivity in the K_act for isoproterenol but not for dopamine or CGP-12177 (a β₃-adrenergic agonist) stimulation. Thus, the β₁ but not the D₁ or β₃ receptors were being desensitized by PKC activation. Analysis of SK-N-MC cells by western blotting with antibodies against different PKC isozymes revealed that both the α and ζ isozymes were present in these cells. Whereas PKC-α was activated and translocated from cytosol to membrane by phorbol esters, the ζ isozyme was not. Thus, PKC-α, which has been implicated in desensitization in other cell lines, also appears to potentiate adenylylcyclase activity.

Effect of host availability on reproduction and survival of the parasitoid wasp Trichogramma minutum

Abstract.

• 1 We tested the hypothesis that females of the egg parasitoid, Trichogramma minutum Riley (Hymenoptera: Trichogrammatidae), could adjust their fecundity schedule according to host availability and that there was a negative correlation between reproduction and survival in these wasps.
• 2 Newly-emerged females were provided with an unlimited or limited number of hosts in the first trial and with either unlimited, limited or zero hosts in the second trial.
• 3 When hosts were unlimited, wasps had the highest rate of reproduction in the first day, which decreased dramatically thereafter. When hosts were limited, wasps from the two trials differed in their response. In Trial I, females with limited hosts had lower first-day fecundity than, and the same subsequent-day fecundity as, those with unlimited hosts. However, in Trial II, females with limited host had a lower first-day but a higher subsequent-day fecundity than those with unlimited hosts. This indicates variation in Trichogramma's ability to shift its fecundity schedule in response to host availability.
• 4 There was a positive (rather than a negative) correlation between reproduction and survival. Wasps that oviposited (in host-unlimited treatment) had greater longevity than those that could not (in host-unavailable treatment).
• 5 The sex ratio of the progeny produced by wasps in both host-unlimited and limited treatments shifted gradually from a female to a male bias as the wasps aged.
• 6 We consider the ability of parasitoids to adjust their fecundity schedule as an adaptation to changing host resources and discuss our findings with regard to theories of life history evolution.

     

ε-聚赖氨酸抑菌性能的研究进展

ε-聚赖氨酸(ε-poly-L-lysine,ε-PL)是抑菌谱广泛的天然抑菌剂,由通过α-羧基与ε-氨基连接的25–35个赖氨酸聚合而成。ε-PL主要由白色链霉菌发酵生产所得,比化学生产更加高效和环保。ε-PL具有水溶性好、耐热和对环境无污染等特点,具有良好的应用前景。本文从发酵生产入手,着重综述了ε-PL对各种微生物抑菌性能、抑菌机制及抑菌机制模型的研究进展。推测ε-PL是通过对细胞膜的破坏而改变细胞的通透性,或者作用到细胞内引起活性氧(reactive oxygen species, ROS)胁迫而影响调节基因的表达,从而起到抑菌作用。根据这2种抑菌方式分别建立了相应的抑菌模型,即毡毯模型和ROS诱导细胞凋亡模型。本文可为ε-PL对微生物抑制性能的深入研究提供依据,同时也提出了ε-PL抑菌机制的新模型,为扩展ε-PL应用领域提供了一定的参考。
