Effect of shrimp head protein hydrolysates on the state of water and denaturation of fish myofibrils during dehydration

ABSTRACT:   To utilize fisheries waste products as food materials with functional properties, shrimp head protein hydrolysates (SHPH) from three species of shrimp, that is, Northern pink shrimp ( Pandalus eous ), Endeavour shrimp ( Metapenaeus endeavouri ) and Black tiger shrimp ( Penaeus monodon ), were produced by enzymatic hydrolysis using endopeptidase derived from Bacillus subtilis and exopeptidase derived from Aspergillus oryzae at a level of 0.1% (w/w). SHPH were rich in protein (90–91%) and amino acids (71–84%) but little fat (0.01–0.02%). The average molecular weight of SHPH was 300–1400. The effect of 5% SHPH (dry basis) addition on the state of water and denaturation of lizard fish myofibrils (Mf) during the dehydration process was evaluated by the desorption isotherm and the Ca-ATPase activity, and compared with the effect of sodium glutamate (Na-Glu). SHPH decreased the water activity and the Ca-ATPase inactivation, and increased monolayer sorbed water and multilayer sorbed water of Mf, although these effects of SHPH were smaller than those of Na-Glu. These findings suggest that the SHPH suppressed dehydration-induced denaturation of myofibrillar protein by stabilizing the hydrated water surrounding myofibrils.     

中华绒螯蟹血淋巴和肝胰腺的总蛋白含量与性早熟的关系

中华绒螯蟹扣蟹性腺发育与肝胰腺和血淋巴的蛋白质浓度相关.性早熟前后,雌雄扣蟹肝胰腺总蛋白浓度分别由(121.17±44.50)mg@g-1和(89.43±21.86)mg@g-1下降至(81.08±5.84)mg@g-1和(70.58±9.90)mg@g-1,雌性扣蟹的肝胰腺占体重的比值也由8.18%降至3.90%.血淋巴总蛋白浓度正常发育的雌性扣蟹为(99.55±12.06)mg@mL-1,明显高于性早熟雌性扣蟹的(72.26±17.87)mg@mL-1;而雄性扣蟹性早熟前后的血淋巴总蛋白浓度无显著差异.肝胰腺总蛋白浓度二秋龄雌蟹高于性早熟雌性扣蟹,但它们之间的血淋巴总蛋白浓度没有显著差异.二秋龄雄蟹的血淋巴和肝胰腺总蛋白浓度与性早熟雄性扣蟹相当,差异不显著.

巴西橡胶树橡胶粒子中2个含RicinB_Lectin_2结构域蛋白质研究初报

采用不同提取液,从洗涤过的巴西橡胶树橡胶粒子中提取蛋白质,并对其进行电泳分离与质谱鉴定。分离鉴定了2个含RicinB_Lectin_2结构域的糖基识别蛋白质,分别命名为HbRBLLP-1和HbRBLLP-2。这2个蛋白质可能是橡胶粒子膜蛋白质或是与橡胶粒子有较强的相互作用的蛋白质。对HbRBLLP-1及HbRBLLP-2进行生物信息学分析,结果表明它们的RicinB_Lectin_2结构域均仅有1个Q-x-W模体,而非蓖麻毒素B链所具有的(Q-x-W)3模体。

以巴西橡胶树花药为外植体,研究了巴西橡胶树花药体胚发生过程中抗氧化酶活性和某些生理参数的变化。结果表明,橡胶树花药体胚发生过程中,SOD活性变化表现在培养30 d达到最高值,而后下降平缓;丙二醛(MDA)含量在第60天达到最高。生理参数的变化表现为可溶性蛋白含量0 d含量最高,可溶性糖的含量在50 d达到最高,据此认为,SOD和MDA对橡胶树花药体胚的诱导起主导作用,可溶性蛋白含量与不定芽的发生密切相关。     

稻瘟病菌MoYpt5蛋白互作网络预测

稻瘟病菌(Magnaporthe oryzae)共有11个假定的Rab蛋白家族成员,本文选取了MoYpt51(MGG_06241)和MoYpt52(MGG_01185)进行了生物信息学分析。通过搜索多个大型蛋白互作数据库和文献,共得到数百个与核心蛋白互作的蛋白和互作对。利用信息处理技术和高效制图平台将这些蛋白互作对构建成互作网络,得到若干个具有生物学意义的模块。结果表明,筛选得到的互作蛋白中,有的参与了蛋白降解的泛素途径(MGG_04053等)、囊泡介导的蛋白胞内运输(MGG_01238等),有的在蛋白、染色体的组装和修饰等过程(MGG_03677等)起重要作用。大部分假定互作蛋白定位于细胞质和质膜上,为其与目标蛋白互作提供了空间可能性。
