Kruppel样因子15对脂肪沉积和肌纤维类型的影响及其可能机制

Kruppel样因子15(KLF15)是一种新发现的Kruppel样因子家族(KLFs)成员,为一种真核锌指蛋白转录因子。KLF15在动物体内呈现多组织表达特性,该基因过表达能促进动物脂肪沉积,且能影响肉质性状候选基因和Ⅰ型肌纤维基因的表达。因此,深入研究KLF15对脂肪沉积和肌纤维类型的影响及其可能机制,将为改善动物肉品质提供新的思路。本文综述了KLF15的发现、结构特征、表达规律及其与脂肪沉积和Ⅰ型肌纤维之间的关系。

热压温度对热压过程中板坯芯层温度变化影响的研究

纤维板热压过程中板坯芯层温度是否能迅速达到胶的固化温度是影响产品质量和生产率的重要因素之一。板坯热压过程中的传热速率受很多因素影响,如热压温度、板坯含水率、密度和厚度等,其中热压温度是生产中较易控制的工艺参数之一。通过探讨热压过程中板坯芯层温度变化规律与热压温度的关系,研究不同热压温度对板坯芯层温度变化的影响,为优化热压工艺条件提供理论依据。     

球磨-酶解法制备纳米竹纤维的结构表征

采用机械球磨对竹纤维进行预处理,再经纤维素酶水解制备纳米竹纤维。通过光学显微镜(OM)、透射电子显微镜(TEM)、傅立叶红外光谱仪(FTIR)和X射线衍射仪(XRD)对竹纤维的形貌、组成、光谱学性能以及晶体特性进行了表征。实验结果表明:球磨法和酶解法在一定程度上都可以细化竹纤维;球磨预处理有助于竹纤维的酶解过程,且球磨-酶解法制备的纳米竹纤维粒径在100 nm左右;所制备的纳米竹纤维仍然保持竹纤维的基本化学结构,但球磨处理破坏了纤维素的结晶结构,其结晶度由64.15%降低到了38.55%。     

骨骼肌纤维烟酰胺腺嘌呤二核苷酸四唑氧化还原酶组化染色的检测

本文应用烟酰胺腺嘌呤二核苷酸四唑氧化还原酶（NADH-TR）组化染色，将大鼠与家兔小腿胫前肌与腓肠肌的肌纤维型分成染色最深的快缩氧化FO型、染色较深的慢缩氧化SO型、染色浅的快缩氧化酵解FOG型及染色最浅的快缩酵解FG型纤维。这与定量分析结果相吻合。并对低温液氮保存骨骼肌标本进行观察，发现小块肌组织＋生理盐水和小块肌组织＋5％二甲基亚砜（DMSO）冷冻保护剂的玻璃化冻存一起浸入液氮制成切片，都未见冰晶形成；而在用5％二甲基亚砜玻璃化冻存大块肌组织切片见有少量冰晶出现；未使用5％二甲基亚砜玻璃化冻存大块肌组织切片见有大量冰晶出现。提示小块标本超快速浸入液氮内能减少冰晶形成，保证酶组化染色切片的质量。并进一步对烟酰胺腺嘌呤二核苷酸四唑氧化还原酶组化作用机理与孵育液的科学配制进行了探讨。     

Validation and application of real-time polymerase chain reaction assays for representative rumen bacteria

Real‐time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assays for 11 representative rumen bacterial species were validated. The sensitivity was tested by using the serially diluted target 16S rDNA from respective bacterial species. The recovery of the target DNA and the assay reproducibility were determined using DNA from rumen fluid spiked with different quantities of the target. Minimum detection levels for the target were 10–100 copies in pure culture. The recovery of the added target ranged from 82.4 to 116.6%. The intra‐ and inter‐assay variations of each assay were <9.4 and <12.6%, respectively. Therefore, the real‐time PCR assays evaluated in the present study are considered to be sufficiently reliable for monitoring all 11 bacterial species in the rumen. The assays were then applied to the monitoring of the bacterial species attached to ruminally incubated rice straw. Among the monitored fibrolytic species, Fibrobacter succinogenes was found to be the most dominant, accounting for 2.61% of total bacteria after 24 h incubation. Selenomonas ruminantium and Streptococcus bovis, non‐fibrolytics, were detected on the rice straw at 8.96% and 1.16% of total bacteria, respectively. Such high levels of non‐fibrolytics on the plant fiber suggest a synergistic relationship between fibrolytics and non‐fibrolytics.     

Bacteriophage OP1, lytic for Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae, changes its host range by duplication and deletion of the small domain in the deduced tail fiber gene

The entire genome of bacteriophage OP₁, lytic for Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae causing bacterial leaf blight of rice, and the partial genomes of related phages were sequenced and analyzed. The OP₁ genome comprises double-stranded, 4785-bp long DNA with 51.1% G + C content. Fifty-nine open reading frames (ORFs) were detected. ORF25 had similarity with the tail fiber gene of phages, whose product is related to host specificity. The ORF25 regions were amplified from four host-range mutants (OP_1h, OP_1hC, OP_1h2, and OP_1h2C) by polymerase chain reaction, and their deduced amino acid sequences were compared. Three mutants (OP_1hC, OP_1h2, OP_1h2C) had duplications of a small domain in the N-terminal portion, although there were slight differences in the position of the duplicated sequences. One mutant OP_1h had substituted amino acids in the duplication region. New mutants isolated in the laboratory (OP_1hC and OP_1h2C from OP₁ and OP_1h2) acquired the ability to lyse strain N5874 belonging to phagovar (lysotype) C. However, they rapidly lost this lytic ability when incubated with other phagovars. This loss was always accompanied by a loss of the characteristic repeats, suggesting that the host range of OP₁-related phages changed mainly through duplication and deletion of a small domain in ORF25. The nucleotide sequence data reported are available in the DDBJ/EMBL/GenBank databases under the accession numbers AP008979, AB214312 to AB214316
