拟南芥U-box蛋白的研究进展

泛素-26s蛋白酶体途径（ubiquitin-26s proteosome pathway,UPP）是真核生物体内一种高度选择性的蛋白降解途径。U—box蛋白是该途径中决定底物特异性的一种泛素连接酶E3。U—box结构域大约由70个氨基酸残基构成,在酵母、植物和动物等真核生物中高度保守。植物U-box蛋白（plant U—box protein,PUB）的数目远多于其他生物,在植物的生长发育过程中起着重要作用。目前在拟南芥中已发现60多个PUB蛋白（Arabidopsis plant U-box protein,AtPUB）,成为近年来受到较多关注的一类蛋白。本文根据蛋白的结构特征和系统进化树比较,将61种AtPUB蛋白分为7大类。同时,对已报道AtPUB蛋白的功能进行了综述并提出了研究展望。     

基于MaxEnt模型的中国豚草潜在适生区预测分析

利用MaxEnt模型预测现代和未来气候背景下豚草在中国的潜在分布格局。研究结果表明：年平均气温和年平均降水量对豚草生存的影响呈先上升后下降趋势,豚草不适于特别炎热且干旱地区生存,最干月降水量和土壤盐基饱和度对豚草生存呈正影响;未来气候变化背景下豚草的高适生区质心移动轨迹为高纬度东北方向,有待重点监测和控制。     

甲基磺酸乙酯对草莓愈伤组织的生理效应

用不同浓度甲基磺酸乙酯对草莓愈伤组织进行诱变处理,测定了愈伤组织中的保护酶和氧化酶活性、总酚含量、MDA含量的变化以及愈伤组织的死亡率。结果表明,随着EMS处理浓度的增加和时间的延长,愈伤组织死亡率呈上升趋势;随着EMS处理浓度的增加,保护酶SOD,CAT和氧化酶PPO,POD活性升高,而后快速下降;随着处理时间的延长,SOD活性逐渐下降,CAT,PPO活性先上升后下降,POD活性则表现为先降后升再降;随着处理浓度的增加和时间的延长,总酚含量变化为先升后降,但上升和下降都比较缓慢,而MDA含量则逐渐上升;处理后的愈伤组织在培养过程中,PPO,POD活性迅速下降并维持在相对稳定的水平,总酚和MDA含量逐渐下降,而总酚含量与PPO,POD活性呈显著正相关。由此认为,在用EMS对草莓愈伤组织进行诱变时,较适宜的剂量为0.1%~0.2%浓度处理1.0~1.5 h,在处理完成后的前12 h培养中,应采取措施以减轻褐变。

Expression of phenylalanine ammonia-lyase cDNA from rice in E. coli BL21DE3

AIM: To study the expression and its kinetics of rice phenylalanine ammonia-lyase gene encoding into E. coli as the basis of treatment for phenylketouria. METHODS: The phenylalanine ammonia-lyase-1-cDNA(rPAL-1-cDNA) from rice was recombined into E. coli high expression vector pET-28c and transformed into E. coli host strain BL21DE3. Engineering bacteria was then inducted by isopropyl-β-D-thiogalactoside (IPTG) for 1, 3, 5, 7 hours, in order to obtain high level expression. RESULTS: After induction, the expression level of fusion protein was 21.40%, 30.60%, 35.40%, 35.43% respectively. The fusion protein exhibited a band of 78.6 kD on SDS-PAGE analysis, but was not found in controls.The target protein was mainly existed in the form of inclusion body. CONCLUSION:Rice PAL gene expressing E. coli was established by gentic engineering technique.     

Adhesion of bone marrow stromal cell in children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia

AIM and METHOD: The adhesion behavior of bone marrow stromal cells(BMSC) in children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia(ALL) to bone marrow mononuclear cells(BMMC) and Raji cells were investigated by MTT method. The expression of adhesion molecules ICAM-1 and VCAM-1 were detected by flow cytometry. RESULTS: The adhesion ability of BMSC in acute period of ALL to BMMC was lower than that of control group. The adhesion ability of BMSC in long term remission period of ALL to Raji cells higher than that of control group. The expression of ICAM-1 on the surface of BMSC in acute period of ALL is much lower than that of control group. CONCLUSIONS: The adhesion of BMSC to BMMC or tumor cells in children with ALL was abnormal. The abnormal adhesion behavior might be partially due to the changed expression of adhesion molecules on BMSC.     

Interleukin-1β inhibits AKT to down-regulate eNOS Ser1177 phosphorylation in human umbilical vein endothelial cells

AIM To investigate whether interleukin-1β （IL-1β） regulates endothelial nitric oxide synthase （eNOS） phosphorylation at Ser1177 site in human umbilical vein endothelial cells （HUVECs）, and to explore its possible mechanism. METHODS The HUVECs were randomly divided into normal control group, tumor necrosis factor-α （TNF-α） group, IL-1β group, IL-6 group, SC79 ［protein kinase B （PKB/AKT） specific agonist］ group and SC79+IL-1β group. Western blot was used to determine the protein levels of eNOS, p-eNOS-Ser1177, AKT and p-AKT-Ser473 in the HUVECs. Chemical colorimetry was used to detect the nitric oxide （NO） content in the culture medium of HUVECs. RESULTS No statistically significant difference of p-eNOS-Ser1177 level in HUVECs treated with TNF-α and IL-6 was observed as compared with normal control group （P>0.05）, while the protein level of p-eNOS-Ser1177 in the HUVECs and the content of NO in the culture medium of HUVECs decreased significantly in IL-1β group （P<0.05）, and the protein level of p-AKT-Ser473 in the HUVECs was decreased as compared with normal control group （P<0.05）. The AKT agonist SC79 blocked the down-regulation effect of IL-1β on p-eNOS-Ser1177 level in the HUVECs and NO content in the culture medium of HUVECs （P<0.05）. CONCLUSION IL-1β down-regulates the protein level of p-eNOS-Ser1177 in HUVECs and affects the activity of eNOS, which may be involved in AKT/eNOS signaling pathway.

环境基准值的科学研究与我国环境标准的修订

对环境基准和环境标准在概念上进行了辨析,论述了环境基准科学研究中需要把握的几个核心问题,其中最为关键的一步是不同类型生态受体的选取,因此环境基准值应该是基于不同保护对象的多目标函数或一个范围值。鉴于我国环境标准迫切需要修订这一实际,呼吁加强环境基准的研究,尤其是要开展一次国家层面上的土壤环境基准的系统研究。
