The net CO2 exchange of forests was investigated to study net atmospheric impact of forest bioenergy production (BP) and utilization in Finnish boreal conditions. Net CO2 exchange was simulated with a life cycle assessment tool over a 90‐year period and over the whole Finland based on National Forest Inventory data. The difference in the net exchanges between the traditional timber production (TP) and BP regime was considered the net atmospheric impact of forest bioenergy utilization. According to the results, forests became net sources of CO2 after about 20 years of simulation, and the net exchange was higher in the BP regime than in the TP regime until the middle of the simulation period. From 2040 onwards, the net exchange started to decrease in both regimes and became higher in the TP regime, excluding the last decade of the simulation. The shift of forests to becoming a CO2 source reflected the decrease in CO2 sequestration due to the increasing share of recently harvested and seedling stands that are acting as sources of CO2, and an increase of emissions from degradation of wood products. When expressed in terms of radiative forcing, the net atmospheric impact was on average 19% less for bioenergy compared with that for coal energy over the whole simulation period. The results show the importance of time dependence when considering dynamic forest ecosystems in BP and climate change mitigation. Furthermore, the results emphasize the dualistic role and possibilities of forest management in controlling the build and release of carbon into and from the stocks and in controlling the rate of the build speed, i.e. growth. This information is needed in identifying the capability and possibilities of ecosystems to produce biomass for energy, alongside other products and ecosystem services (e.g. pulp wood and timber), and simultaneously to mitigate climate change. 相似文献

The ionic liquids 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium acetate [emim]OAc, N,N,N,N-tetramethylguanidium propionate [TMGH]EtCO(2), and N,N,N,N-tetramethylguanidium acetate [TMGH]OAc, and the traditional cellulose solvent N-methylmorpholine N-oxide NMMO were characterized for their Kamlet-Taft (KT) values at several water contents and temperatures. For the ionic liquids and NMMO, thresholds of regeneration of cellulose solutions by water were determined using nephelometry and rheometry. Regeneration from wet IL was found to be asymmetric compared to dissolution into wet IL. KT parameters were found to remain almost constant at temperatures, between 20-100 °C, even at different water contents. Among the KT parameters, the β value was found to change most drastically, with an almost linear decrease upon addition of water. The ability of the mixtures to dissolve cellulose was best explained by the difference β-α (net basicity), rather than β alone. Regeneration of cellulose starts at thresholds values of approximately β < 0.8 (β-α < 0.35) and displayed four phases. 相似文献

A specific condensed lignin substructure, dibenzodioxocin, was immunolocalized in differentiating cell walls of Norway spruce (Picea abies (L.) H. Karsten) and silver birch (Betula pendula Roth) xylem. A fluorescent probe, Alexa 488 was used as a marker on the dibenzodioxocin-specific secondary antibody. For the detection of this lignin substructure, 25-m cross-sections of xylem were viewed with a confocal laser-scanning microscope with fluorescein isothiocyanate fluorescence filters. In mature cells, fluorescence was detected in the S3 layer of the secondary wall in both tree species, but it was more intense in Norway spruce than in silver birch. In silver birch most of the signal was detected in vessel walls and less in fiber cell walls. In very young tracheids of Norway spruce and vessels and fibers of silver birch, where secondary cell wall layers were not yet formed, the presence of the dibenzodioxocin structure could not be shown.Abbreviation CLSM confocal laser-scanning fluorescence microscopy 相似文献

Activity of a number of enzymes related to lignin formation was measured in a Picea abies (L) Karsten suspension culture that is able to produce native-like lignin into the nutrient medium. This cell culture is an attractive model for studying lignin formation, as the process takes place independently of the complex macromolecular matrix of the native apoplast. Suspension culture proteins were fractionated into soluble cellular proteins, ionically and covalently bound cell wall proteins and nutrient medium proteins. The nutrient medium contained up to 5.3% of total coniferyl alcohol peroxidase (EC 1.11.1.7) activity and a significant NADH oxidase activity that is suggested to be responsible for hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) production. There also existed some malate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.37) activity in the apoplast of suspension culture cells (in ionically and covalently bound cell wall protein fractions), possibly for the regeneration of NADH that is needed for peroxidase-catalysed H2O2 production. However, there is no proof of the existence of NADH in the apoplast. Nutrient medium peroxidases could be classified into acidic, slightly basic and highly basic isoenzyme groups by isoelectric focusing. Only acidic peroxidases were found in the covalently bound cell wall protein fraction. Several peroxidase isoenzymes across the whole pI range were detected in the protein fraction ionically bound to cell walls and in the soluble cellular protein fraction. One laccase-like isoenzyme with pI of approximately 8.5 was found in the nutrient medium that was able to form dehydrogenation polymer from coniferyl alcohol in the absence of H2O2. The total activity of this oxidase towards coniferyl alcohol was, however, several orders of magnitude smaller than that of peroxidases in vitro. According to 2D 1H-13C correlation NMR spectra, most of the abundant structural units of native lignin and released suspension culture lignin are present in the oxidase produced dehydrogenation polymer but in somewhat different amounts compared to peroxidase derived synthetic lignin preparations. A coniferin beta-glucosidase (EC 3.2.1.21) was observed to be secreted into the culture medium. 相似文献

In this work, we studied the potentials offered by managed boreal forests and forestry to mitigate the climate change using forest‐based materials and energy in substituting fossil‐based materials (concrete and plastic) and energy (coal and oil). For this purpose, we calculated the net climate impacts (radiative forcing) of forest biomass production and utilization in the managed Finnish boreal forests (60°–70°N) over a 90‐year period based on integrated use forest ecosystem model simulations (on carbon sequestration and biomass production of forests) and life‐cycle assessment (LCA) tool. When studying the effects of management on the radiative forcing in a system integrating the carbon sink/sources dynamics in both biosystem and technosystem, the current forest management (baseline management) was used a reference management. Our results showed that the use of forest‐based materials and energy in substituting fossil‐based materials and energy would provide an effective option for mitigating climate change. The negative climate impacts could be further decreased by maintaining forest stocking higher over the rotation compared to the baseline management and by harvesting stumps and coarse roots in addition to logging residues in the final felling. However, the climate impacts varied substantially over time depending on the prevailing forest structure and biomass assortment (timber, energy biomass) used in substitution. 相似文献

F-spondin is a protein mainly associated with neuronal development. It attaches to the extracellular matrix and acts in the axon guidance of the developing nervous system. F-spondin consists of eight domains, six of which are TSR domains. The TSR domain family binds a wide range of targets. Here we present the NMR solution structures of TSR1 and TSR4. TSR domains have an unusual fold that is characterized by a long, nonglobular shape, consisting of two beta-strands and one irregular extended strand. Three disulfide bridges and stack of alternating tryptophan and arginine side-chains stabilize the structure. TSR1 and TSR4 structures are similar to each other and to the previously determined TSR domain X-ray structures from another protein, TSP, although TSR4 exhibits a mobile loop not seen in other structures. 相似文献

Nephrin is a signalling cell-cell adhesion protein of the Ig superfamily and the first identified component of the slit diaphragm that forms the critical and ultimate part of the glomerular ultrafiltration barrier. The extracellular domains of the nephrin molecules form a network of homophilic and heterophilic interactions building the structural scaffold of the slit diaphragm between the podocyte foot processes. The intracellular domain of nephrin is connected indirectly to the actin cytoskeleton, is tyrosine phosphorylated, and mediates signalling from the slit diaphragm into the podocytes. CD2AP, podocin, Fyn kinase, and phosphoinositide 3-kinase are reported intracellular interacting partners of nephrin, although the biological roles of these interactions are unclarified. To characterize the structural properties and protein-protein interactions of the nephrin intracellular domain, we produced a series of recombinant nephrin proteins. These were able to bind all previously identified ligands, although the interaction with CD2AP appeared to be of extremely low stoichiometry. Fyn phosphorylated nephrin proteins efficiently in vitro. This phosphorylation was required for the binding of phosphoinositide 3-kinase, and significantly enhanced binding of Fyn itself. A protein of 190 kDa was found to associate with the immobilized glutathione S-transferase-nephrin. Peptide mass fingerprinting and amino acid sequencing identified this protein as IQGAP1, an effector protein of small GTPases Rac1 and Cdc42 and a putative regulator of cell-cell adherens junctions. IQGAP1 is expressed in podocytes at significant levels, and could be found at the immediate vicinity of the slit diaphragm. However, further studies are needed to confirm the biological significance of this interaction and its occurrence in vivo. 相似文献
