Ecological notes of the alien species Godiva quadricolor (Gastropoda: Nudibranchia) occurring in Faro Lake (Italy)

The first record from Sicily of the introduced facelinid nudibranch Godiva quadricolor allowed the detection of trophic relationships with the polycerid Polycera hedgpethi, another non-native nudibranch, and with two bryozoan species, namely the naturalized Cheilostomatida Bugula neritina and the cryptogenic Ctenostomatida Amathia verticillata. The settlement of both nudibranchs was presumably promoted by a trophic shift of P. hedgpethi from the natural prey B. neritina towards the largely available and not exploited A. verticillata. This short food web, without evident links with native fauna and having G. quadricolor as the top predator, is described. A DNA barcoding approach was used to confirm the identity of this facelinid species and to explore the possible genetic divergence occurring among the samples analysed.     

基于DNA-AuNCs的荧光传感新方法灵敏检测胰蛋白酶活性

以DNA模板金纳米簇(DNA-AuNCs)作为荧光探针,发展了一种灵敏检测胰蛋白酶活性的荧光分析新方法.在胰蛋白酶存在条件下,牛血清白蛋白水解成多肽片段,释放出游离的半胱氨酸残基.半胱氨酸残基与金纳米簇通过Au-S键形成非荧光的配合物,导致金纳米簇的荧光强度显著降低.该方法对胰蛋白酶的线性检测范围为0.1～2.0mg/L,检出限为20μg/L(R_(SN)=3).此外,该方法被成功应用于人血清样品中胰蛋白酶含量的测定.

Photosensitized splitting of cis-syn 1,3-dimethyluracil dimer by tryptophan and its peptides

Photosensitized splitting of cis-syn 1,3-dimethyluracil dimer by tryptophan (Trp) and its peptides (Trp-Tyr and Trp-Phe) is studied by fluorescence quenching experiments and irradiation experiments.It reveals that 1,3-dimethyluracil dimer is mainly split by e?-?aq resulting from two-photon ionization of Trp and its peptides under irradiation with light (λ>290 nm).Moreover,the excited singlet state of Trp and its peptides can transfer an electron to the dimer,which splits and gives two pyrimidines.In addition,because of its lower oxidative potential,the excited triplet state of Trp-Tyr can also split the dimer via transfering an electron to the dimer.     

基于DNA序列的信息隐藏

研究了以DNA序列为载体的信息隐藏,提出了一个信息隐藏算法.该算法首先将秘密信息经预处理、编码、调制变成一维随机DNA序列;然后由一个随机数序列决定隐藏信息在载体的高复杂性区域的位置;最后在隐藏信息的位置,秘密信息字符替代载体字符.由该算法实现的信息隐藏既具有一定的稳健性和安全性,又符合生物学意义.实验结果也证明了该算法的有效性.

Improving the thermal stability of lactate oxidase by directed evolution

Lactate oxidase is used in biosensors to measure the concentration of lactate in the blood and other body fluids. Increasing the thermostability of lactate oxidase can significantly prolong the lifetime of these biosensors. We have previously obtained a variant of lactate oxidase from Aerococcus viridans with two mutations (E160G/V198I) that is significantly more thermostable than the wild-type enzyme. Here we have attempted to further improve the thermostability of E160G/V198I lactate oxidase using directed evolution. We made a mutant lactate oxidase gene library by applying error-prone PCR and DNA shuffling, and screened for thermostable mutant lactate oxidase using a plate-based assay. After three rounds of screening we obtained a thermostable mutant lactate oxidase, which has six mutations (E160G/V198I/G36S/T103S/A232S/F277Y). The half-life of this lactate oxidase at 70 °C was about 2 times that of E160G/V198I and about 36 times that of the wild-type enzyme. The amino acid mutation process suggests that the combined neutral mutations are important in protein evolution.
