We examined the biochemical and structural properties of oryzacystatin-II, a phytocystatin in rice (Oryza sativa L. japonica), under heat-stress conditions. The enzyme inhibitory reactivity of oryzacystatin-II was enhanced by heating in a temperature-dependent manner and reached a maximum level by heating at 65 degrees C for 10 min. Size-exclusion chromatography showed that oryzacystatin-II forms a homodimer at ambient temperature and that the enhancement of inhibitory reactivity is due to the conversion of the dimeric to a monomeric form. The monomeric form of oryzacystatin-II reverted to the dimer during storage at 4 degrees C, suggesting that dimerization is an intrinsic property of oryzacystatin-II. The affinity of the monomer for cysteine proteinases was significantly higher than that of the dimer. This is the first paper to describe the noncovalent dimerization for a cystatin under nonstress conditions. 相似文献

Summary Developmental stages during gametogenesis of rice were histologically examined in the period from differentiation of reproductive organs to anthesis. Plants were exposed to acute X-rays of 20 Gy. Radiosensitivity and mutation frequency were investigated in relation to the developmental stages of reproductive organs. The most radiosensitive stage, as measured by reduction of the M1 pollen-and seed-fertilities, was the last premeiotic interphase. Mutations induced at different developmental stages were scored in M3 strains. Sterility mutants and short-culm mutants were most frequently observed. Grain shape, panicle morphology, heading-date and endosperm character mutants were induced at a relatively low frequency. The overall mutation frequency varied with the developmental stage at the time of irradiation. The highest overall mutation frequency was observed when radiation was applied 10 days before anthesis, the late tetrad stage of microspores. Radiation exposure of florets at the late tetrad stage was found to be a more efficient method of inducing a large number of mutations than radiations applied to seeds and fertilized egg cells. 相似文献

We studied endothelin (ET) receptors and their subtypes on isolated bovine coronary arteries. Endothelin receptors that mediated contraction of isolated bovine coronary artery were characterized by the use of antagonists and agonists. Contractions induced by the nonselective agonist ET-1 (10-10-10-7 M) were not affected by the removal of the endothelium (pEC50: 8.52, maximal contraction: 105% of that induced by 60 mM KCl). BQ-123 (3 x 10-7 M) antagonized contractions of endothelium-denuded coronary rings induced by low concentrations of ET-1 (10-10 or 10-9 M), but potentiated the contractions induced by higher concentrations of ET-1 (3 x 10-8 and 10-7 M). BQ-788 (10-6 M) potentiated contractions induced by ET-1 (3 x 10-10 and 10-7 M). In the presence of BQ-788 (10-6 M), BQ-123 (3 x 10-8-3 x 10-6 M) concentration - dependently inhibited contractions induced by ET-1 (3 x 10-10 and 10-7 M) (pA2: 6.61). Sarafotoxin S6b (10-9-3 x 10-7 M) evoked contractions in the denuded coronary artery (pEC50: 8.49, maximal contraction: 139% of 60 mM KCl). The BQ-123 caused a concentration-dependent rightward shift of contractions induced by sarafotoxin S6b (pA2: 7.89). The present study indicates that ET-1 and sarafotoxin S6b contract the isolated bovine coronary artery by stimulating ETA receptors on smooth muscle cells, and that ETB receptors might suppress the ET-1-induced contractions. 相似文献

We used amplified-fragment-length polymorphism (AFLP) markers to evaluate genetic variation in a set of bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) landraces and improved materials. Landraces collected from different geographic and agro-ecological zones in Pakistan
in 1987, 1989 and 1991 were separated into two groups based on their geographic origins: northern (Himalaya) and south-western
(Balochistan) Pakistan. Six AFLP primer combinations detected 453 AFLP markers in the 43 landrace accessions and four high-yield
varieties (HYVs). Of these, 225 (49.67%) were rare (shared with < 5% of all accessions). Among these rare alleles, 23 (10.22%)
were common in the Himalaya (shared with > 10% of accessions collected there) but were not found in Balochistan. We conclude
that there is a higher probability of collecting rare alleles at overall, but which are in contrast locally common ones in
the Himalayan region. Gene diversity was 0.17 in the Himalayan group and 0.15 in the Balochistan group. Considerable genetic
variability was found in both groups. Accessions from different agro-ecological zones were indistinguishable by cluster analysis,
indicating intensive seed trading within the country. Cluster analysis indicated that the landraces and the HYVs are genetically
distinct; suggesting that genetic erosion of wheat landraces has been unlikely taken in place. This study provides an example
of how analysis of existing materials and data, can serve as a basis for future collection planning and conservation policies. 相似文献

We developed PCR-based markers for genotyping Waxy genes in common millet (Panicum miliaceum L.) and proposed a new hypothesis on the origin and dispersal of waxy type of Japanese landraces. I2-K staining indicated that almost all the Japanese landraces had waxy endosperm. Based on the PCR and dCAPs analyses of two waxy loci on different genomes we concluded that there were at least two possible lineages in Asian continent that had independent dispersal pathways into Japan. Most Japanese common millet had the similar genotypes with those in Korean Peninsula but a few particularly from northern part of Japan had common genotypes in northeastern China and Primorskaya Province of Russia. 相似文献

To elucidate diversity and evolution of the Waxy gene in foxtail millet, Setaria italica, we analyzed sequence polymorphism of Waxy gene in 83 foxtail millet landraces collected from various regions covering the entire geographical distribution of this millet in Europe and Asia. We found a unique geographic distribution pattern at the sequence level of gene haplotypes and also found a large diversity in East Asian landraces. We also found a higher degree of genetic polymorphism in a non-waxy phenotype than in other low amylose types, supporting the hypothesis that low amylose types recently originated from non-waxy type. 相似文献

The present work was undertaken from the standpoint of radical-capturing ability with regard to the antioxidative ability of flavonoids, especially flavonols distributed widely in woody plants. In regard to the flavonols, six methyl derivatives were initially prepared from quercetin and its litinoside. Their radical-capturing constants were determined strictly by the stopped-flow spectroscopic method. It was proved that the radical-capturing ability of quercetin mainly involves the vicinal C3. and C4, hydroxyl groups and the C3 hydroxyl group. To clarify the reaction mechanism begun at the C3 hydroxyl group of quercetin, 5,7,3,4-tetramethylquercetin (TMQ), flavon-3-ol (F30) and so on were treated with 2,2-azo-bis-(2,4-dimethylvaleronitrile) (AMVN). Six products (1–6) containing one depside and its two hydrolytic products, two valeronitrile adducts, and others were isolated from the reaction mixture of TMQ and their structures determined by instrumental analyses. Similarly, F30 gave four products, 7–10, which corresponded to the above products 1–3 and 5 (one depside, its two hydrolytic products, and one adduct), respectively. 3,5,7,3,4-Pentamethylquercetin (PMQ) and flavon-3-O-methylate (F3M) gave no products. The quantitative change of the products with reaction time was determined spectroscopically. An initial reaction pathway for the radical-capturing reaction of flavon-3-ols with AMVN was proposed based on the products and their amounts. The main route — formation of depside and its hydrolytic products via ketohydroperoxide (3) or ketohydroperoxy radical (4) - was similar to that of the oxidation reaction of quercetin with quercetinase and light.Part of this paper was presented at the 46th and 47th annual meetings of the Japan Wood Research Society, Kumamoto and Kouchi, April 1996 and 1997 相似文献

Direct printing of functional electronic materials may provide a new route to low-cost fabrication of integrated circuits. However, to be useful it must allow continuous manufacturing of all circuit components by successive solution deposition and printing steps in the same environment. We demonstrate direct inkjet printing of complete transistor circuits, including via-hole interconnections based on solution-processed polymer conductors, insulators, and self-organizing semiconductors. We show that the use of substrate surface energy patterning to direct the flow of water-based conducting polymer inkjet droplets enables high-resolution definition of practical channel lengths of 5 micrometers. High mobilities of 0.02 square centimeters per volt second and on-off current switching ratios of 10(5) were achieved. 相似文献
