二化螟dsRNA降解酶基因的克隆与表达分析

为解析二化螟Chilo suppressalis体内参与降解双链RNA(double-stranded RNA,dsRNA)的关键核酸酶的功能,克隆二化螟不同的非专一性核酸酶（non-specific nuclease,NUC）基因,并对这些基因进行生物信息学分析和组织定量表达分析,同时对dsRNA降解酶（dsRNA degrading nuclease,dsRNase）活力的组织分布进行研究。结果显示,共克隆获得5个NUC基因,其中有4个编码dsRNase亚家族基因（CsdsRNase1～CsdsRNase4）和1个编码Endonuclease G亚家族基因（CsEndoG）。5个NUC基因的开放阅读框核苷酸序列长度范围为828～1 338 bp,编码275～445个氨基酸残基,其分子量大小为31.68～49.57 kD,预测等电点为5.48～9.42。CsdsRNase1和CsdsRNase2含有信号肽序列,两者相似度极高,且与家蚕Bombyx mori和斜纹夜蛾Spodoptera litura中具有dsRNA降解酶活力的dsRNase同源聚类;CsdsRNase1和CsdsRN...     

Serological Investigations of Leptospiral Deoxyribonucleases

Enzymoserological comparison of a selection of leptospira strains tested with sera from rabbits immunized with unpurified DNase of Leptospira interrogans, serotype canicola, indicates the production of DNase of serologically very similar properties by the serotypes canicola, autumnalis, icterohemorrhagiae and pomona. The DNase produced by serotype hyos was serologically different from the others, while the serotypes grippotyphosa and bataviae did not produce DNases at all. The method used made it possible to differentiate between leptospiral DNase and normally occurring DNases in the serum samples. Neither leptospira DNase nor specific leptospira-DNase-antibodies could be detected in dog sera with high agglutinationlysis titres after natural infection.

Rapid and Homogenous Detection of Apple stem pitting Virus by RT-PCR and a Fluorogenic 3' Minor Groove Binder-DNA Probe

Real-time PCR with fluorogenic hydrolysis probes (5' nuclease assay) is increasingly used for the detection of pathogens for diagnostic purposes. Nevertheless, the size of the probes, usually 25–40 nucleotides, might limit their use to detect pathogens with high genome variability between isolates, where an identical sequence cannot be found without multiple mismatches. In this report, we describe a 5' nuclease assay, to detect Apple stem pitting virus, based on the use of a shorter probe which is chemically modified with a minor groove binder in order to increase duplex stability and raise the melting temperature to a value suitable for real-time analysis. The short size of the probe, which is critical to target a conserved cluster sequence of 14 nucleotides in the RNA polymerase gene, circumvents the genome variability of the virus. The assay correlates at 96 percent with gel analysis and is more reliable than biological indexing to detect Apple stem pitting virus field isolates. It is fast and fully compatible with automation, and therefore particularly suitable for plant certification.
