Molecular characterization of Ascaridia galli from Bangladesh and development of a PCR method for distinguishing A. galli from Heterakis spp.

We analyzed the nuclear ribosomal internal transcribed spacer (ITS) 1 and ITS2 sequences for Bangladesh isolates of Ascaridia galli, and we determined that the sequences were unreliable as molecular markers for distinguishing A. galli from other Ascaridia species, because the sequences showed high identity with that of A. columbae. However, the ITS1 sequences were available for designing PCR primers distinguishable between Ascaridia galli and Heterakis spp. Bangladesh isolates of A. galli constituted a monophyletic clade along with other geographical isolates in the cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI) phylogenetic tree, however, we could not clarify the phylogenetic relationships between A. galli and other Ascaridia spp., because their available sequences in GenBank were very few. The developed PCR method using DNA from A. galli and Heterakis spp. eggs would enable differential diagnosis of the individual infections in the future.     

拟南芥VHA-c基因在非生物胁迫响应中的作用

利用RT-PCR技术检测VHA-c基因对高盐、水和ABA胁迫的响应,结果表明所有的VHA-c基因都参与了V-ATPase的抗盐胁迫反应;在响应水胁迫的反应中VHA-c2、VHA-c4和VHA-c5基因的表达量增加;在ABA胁迫反应中VHA-c1,VHA-c2,VHA-c3和VHA-c4基因的表达水平均提高,但是VHA-c1和VHA-c3基因只在早期的ABA胁迫中增加其表达量。     

大肠杆菌k88ac菌毛蛋白亚基因的克隆、表达及亲和层析纯化

利用PCR技术,从E.coli C83902中扩增出不含信号肽序列的K88ac菌毛蛋白亚基基因片段,将其克隆到表达载体pQE-30中,构建了原核表达载体pQE30-K88ac,并转入E.coli XL1-Blue中。经IPTG诱导后,由T5启动子调控表达了氨基端带6个连续组氨酸残基的以包涵体形式存在的K88ac蛋白,在变性条件下对目的蛋白进行纯化,并获得了高纯度的融合蛋白。     

Metabarcoding of feces and intestinal contents to determine carnivorous diets in red-crowned cranes in eastern Hokkaido,Japan

The red-crowned crane Grus japonensis in Hokkaido, Japan forms a closed population as a residence that is independent of the mainland population. Based on observations of a limited number of individuals as well as cranes in captivity, red-crowned cranes are omnivores and eat fish, worms, insects and plants in their own territories except in winter, when they are fed with dent corn that is supplied in eastern Hokkaido. DNA metabarcoding based on high throughput sequencing was carried out using universal primer sets for cytochrome oxidase subunit I gene. Feces from 27 chicks collected in June and July in the period from 2016 to 2018 and intestinal contents from 33 adult and subadult cranes that were found dead almost throughout year in 2006–2013 in the field in eastern Hokkaido were used. Although compositions varied considerably in the cranes, both insects and fish were found in adults and subadults to the same extents, while insects were predominant in chicks. Both insects and fish were detected in all seasons for adults and subadults. Horse flies, scarab beetles and weevils accounted for the most of the insects regardless of the life stage. Dace, stickleback, flatfish and sculpin were the major fish species in adults, while chicks ate almost only stickleback. The results provide the first comprehensive data on carnivorous diets in wild red-crowned cranes in eastern Hokkaido as basis for conservation of red-crowned cranes, for which the life style and area continue to change.     

大豆(Glycine max) GmDREB5互作蛋白GmGβ1的筛选及鉴定

从大豆(Glycine max)中克隆了一个与抗逆相关的DREB (Dehydration Responsive Element Binding Protein) 基因GmDREB5。功能分析证明, GmDREB5基因能够显著提高烟草的抗旱性和耐盐性。为了筛选GmDREB5的互作蛋白, 采用酵母双杂交系统以GmDREB5蛋白73~226位氨基酸区段为诱饵筛选干旱处理的大豆cDNA文库, 发现一个互作蛋白含有保守的WD40结构域, 与棉花(Gossypium hirsutum)和水稻(Oryza sativa)的G蛋白β亚基分别具有61%和52%的同源性, 说明蛋白可能是一类新的大豆G蛋白β亚基, 将其定名为GmGβ1。将GmDREB5与GmGβ1共转化酵母菌株AH109, 转化的酵母能够在四营养缺陷型培养基上(SD/ trp- leu- his- ade-)正常生长, 而对照不能生长; 同时, 共转化的酵母能够激活LacZ报告基因的表达, 证明GmGβ1与GmDREB5之间存在相互作用。表达特性分析表明, GmGβ1基因受干旱、低温、高盐等胁迫和激素ABA处理的诱导而表达, 证明GmGβ1不仅参与植物对非生物胁迫的响应, 同时参与对GmDREB5蛋白水平的调控。
