Streptomyces venezuelae GY1产聚乙烯醇降解酶的培养条件

放线菌StreptomycesvenezuelaeGY1产生的聚乙烯醇(PVA)降解酶是一种诱导酶.以4种不同类型的PVA为唯一碳源时,该菌株单位质量细胞产酶能力比以糖类物质为唯一碳源时提高10倍以上.聚合度和醇解度最高的PVA1799是该菌株产生PVA降解酶的适宜底物,其浓度为1gL-1时,PVA降解酶的产量为120u/g(细胞).培养基中PVA1799浓度由1gL-1上升到5gL-1时,该菌株单位质量细胞产酶能力下降73%,表明PVA1799浓度过高会抑制产酶.GY1菌株产酶的最适温度和pH分别为30℃和7.0.在GY1菌株生长过程中控制以下条件有利于产生PVA降解酶:(1)保持培养体系中较高的溶氧水平;(2)在氮源中补充NO-3;(3)在一定浓度范围内添加MgSO4·7H2O、CaCl2、MnSO4、BaCl2、ZnSO4、FeSO4·7H2O和CuSO4等金属盐.Pseudomonassp.产生的PVA降解酶能够作用伯醇或仲醇类化合物,以这些伯醇或仲醇类化合物代替培养基中的PVA,不能诱导GY1菌株产生PVA降解酶;而在培养基中有PVA存在时,再添加0.5gL-1的3戊醇和环己醇能够明显促进PVA降解酶的产生(单位质量细胞产酶能力分别提高了21%和32%).图8表1参10     

杂草对不同水稻品种化感作用的诱导效应

以高脚子粳稻、DV86、HG1和扬稻6号4个水稻品种和稗草、异型莎草、鸭舌草为材料，研究了不同水稻品种单栽或与杂草共栽时，水稻叶片水浸提液对稻田主要杂草稗草的化感作用。结果表明：在正常单栽条件下，高脚子粳稻抗稗草的化感潜力显著大于：HG1和DV86，三者的化感潜力均显著大于非化感品种扬稻6号。不同水稻品种与杂草共栽时，其化感作用均由不同程度的变化，HG1在与稗草共栽时，对稗草幼苗的生长抑制作用显著大于高脚子粳稻；DV86在与鸭舌草共栽时，对稗草幼苗的生长抑制最强。研究表明不同杂草对不同水稻品种的杂草化感作用的诱导效应存在显著差异。     

Milkweeds,monarch butterflies and the ecological significance of cardenolides

Summary The contribution of Miriam Rothschild to the monarch cardenolide story is reviewed in the light of the 1914 challenge by the evolutionary biologist, E.B. Poulton for North American chemists to explain the chemical basis of unpalatability in monarch butterflies and their milkweed host plants. This challenge had lain unaccepted for nearly 50 years until Miriam Rothschild took up the gauntlet and showed with the help of many able colleagues that monarchs are aposematically coloured because they sequester toxic cardenolides from milkweed host plants for use as a defence against predators. By virtue of Dr Rothschild's inspiration and industry, and subsequently that of Lincoln Brower and his colleagues, this tritrophic interaction has become a familiar paradigm for the evolution of chemical defences and warning colouration. We now know that the cardenolide contents of different milkweeds vary quantitatively, qualitatively and spatially, both within and among species and we are starting to appreciate the implications of such variation. However, as Dr Rothschild has pointed out in her publications, cardenolides have sometimes blinded us to reality and it is curious how little evidence there is for a defensive function to cardenolides in plants — especially against adapted specialists such as the monarch. Thus the review will conclude with a discussion of the significance of temporal variation and induction of cardenolide production in plants, the lethal plant defence paradox and an emphasis on the dynamics of the cardenolide-mediated interaction between milkweeds and monarch larvae.     

氯化镉对不同鼠肝肿瘤细胞的毒性及对金属硫蛋白的诱导研究

本文比较了氯化镉对两种去分化和五种分化的鼠肝肿瘤细胞株的细胞毒性以及对金属硫蛋白的诱导能力。结果表明,经2μM氯化镉处理18h后,90—95％的细胞浆中镉同金属硫蛋白结合,而只有5—10％的镉同高分子量部分相连。在IIE细胞中镉与金属硫蛋白的结合取决于氯化镉的浓度与处理时间。当氯化镉浓度高达20μM时对去分化细胞的存活率未见有明显影响,但当浓度为3—10μM时则对分化细胞的存活率有显著影响。这种细胞毒性似与高分子量部分结合的镉的量有关,且氯化镉对这两种细胞的金属硫蛋白有不同的诱导能力。     

假单胞菌No.66降解氯乙酸的研究

本文介绍从水稻土分离得一株可利用单氯乙酸和二氯乙酸作唯一碳源的假单胞菌No.66。该菌在二氯乙酸或单氯乙酸基质上生长时,会释放氯离子,并能使二氯乙酸为碳源的基质之pH值由7降至5以下。No.66菌适宜生长的氯乙酸浓度为0.4—0.5％,适宜脱氯的pH为6.0。所产生的脱氯酶与碳源种类有关。粗脱氯酶液在4℃进行聚丙烯酰胺凝胶(10.5％)电泳呈现一条酶活力带,该酶不仅能使单氯乙酸和二氯乙酸脱氯,而且也能使三氯乙酸脱氯。     

重金属复合污染对蚕豆性状影响的模糊聚类与性状代间分化的摄动分析

运用正交设计，经过４代的原位种植实验，获得了Ｐｂ~（２＋）、Ｃｄ~（２＋）、Ｈｇ~（２＋）、Ｚｎ~（２＋）复合污染对同一蚕豆（ＶｉｃｉａｆａｂａＬ．）种质在株高、首次开花时间、每株结豆荚数、单位豆荚豆粒数（每２０个豆荚）、种子的重量（５０粒）等数量性状的表型数据。利用模糊聚类和摄动分析方法，获得了２５种污染组合对蚕豆数量性状影响的聚类特征，考察了蚕豆代间分化的趋向。实验结果表明，重金属复会污染对蚕豆的毒害作用，不仅同元素的种类和各自的浓度有关，而且与金属离子相互之间的浓度比例密切相关；对于连续种植的蚕豆，其对金属污染的性状变化因世代条件不同而有差异，Ｐｂ~（２＋）、Ｃｄ~（２＋）、Ｈｇ~（２＋）污染条件下，随着代数的推移，性状逐步向正常条件下的数值方向恢复，而Ｚｎ~（２＋）仅在第二代时表现出毒害。本文还讨论了利用植物反应衡量污染物的毒性问题。     

The suitability of gastropods as biomarkers

The measurement and induction of mixed function oxyigenases (MFOs) of limnetic gastropods were investigated to estimate their suitability as biomarkers. A determination of MFO activities was performed through the measurement of ethoxyresorufin-O-dealkylase (EROD), pentoxy-(PROD) and benzoxyresorufin-O-dealkylase-activity (BROD). Optimal measuring conditions of these activities were investigated in preparations of the digestive gland of 4 species of limnetic gastropods. Results indicate that MFO-activity inhibiting substances are accumulating in the microsomal pellet, the fraction commonly used for the measurement of MFO-activities. Therefore, the fraction used for induction studies was the postmitochondrial supernatant (PMS). EROD, PROD, and BROD activity ofPlanorbis planorbis andPlanorbis carinatus were measured after a treatment with Aroclor 1254 for 1–17 days. Maximal induction of EROD and PROD were 6 and 10 times the value in the control group ofP. carinatus, respectively induction inP. planorbis was lower. BROD-activity could not been measured inP. planorbis. InP. carinatus, BROD-activity increased to a maximum of 2 times after traetment with Aroclor 1254. The level of induction of EROD-activity is comparable to results described in analog studies with fish.
