特异性抗菌i-RNA预防烫伤大鼠大肠杆菌感染的作用及机理研究

利用烧伤动物模型,探讨了特异性抗菌免疫核糖核酸(i-RNA)预防烫伤大鼠大肠杆菌感染的作用及机理。结果发现,治疗组经特异性抗菌i-RNA治疗后所测三项指标(痂下组织细菌定量、心血细菌培养及伤后10天内存活率)均明显优于对照组;并发现治疗组腹腔巨噬细胞(Mφ)吞噬功能、脾淋巴细胞转化率及IL-2渗生能力也显著高于对照组。提示特异性抗菌i-RNA对烧伤动物感染有一定的预防作用,可增强烧伤动物的免疫功能,促进其伤后受抑制的免疫功能尽早得以恢复。     

Dynamics of RNA with A6 bulge loop

In order to understand the behavior of RNAs with large bulges in solution, molecular dynamics was performed on the RNA molecule in water with A6 bulge. The result of simulation showed that nonstacked conformation is the main conformation in large bulges, and the backbone of large bulge is of great conformational flexibility, but bulges-induced bends are relatively rigid. The fluctuation in bulge has little influence on the bend angle of RNAs.     

Introduction of antisense waxy gene into main parent lines of indica hybrid rice

Amylose content in rice endosperm is one of thekey determinants of rice eating and cooking quality, and thepoor quality of indica hybrid rice is closely related to thehigh amylose level in rice grains. In order to improve thegrain quality of the indica hybrid rice by genetic engineering,an antisense fragment of rice waxy gene, driven by theintroduced into three major parent lines of indica hybrid rice,all contain a high amylose level in the grains, via Agrobacte-rium, and more than 100 hygromycin-resistant plants wereregenerated. The analysis of PCR amplification and South-ern blots indicated that the T-DNA containing the antisensewaxy gene had been integrated into the genome of transgenicrice plants. Most of the primary transgenic rice plants grewnormally, and the mature seeds from these transgenic plantswere performed for analysis of the amylose content. Theresults showed that the amylose content in the endosperm ofsome grains was reduced and the lowest reached 7.02% inone homozygous transgenic line, 72.4% lower than that ofthe wild type. The influence of the altered amylose contenton the gelatinization temperature and gel consistency wasalso observed in several homozygous transgenic rice plants.     

Establishment of a coupled expression system mediated by modified T7 RNA polymerase gene

A coupled expression system for plants wasmerase gene was modified by addition of the coding sequenceof nuclear location signal from SV40 large T antigen. Plantexpression vector pBBT7 was constructed with the modifiedT7 RNA polymerase gene under the control of CaMV35Spromoter. Another expression vector pBTG contained cas-sette of gusA controlled by T7 promoter. The two vectorswere co-transformed into tobacco via the Agrobecte-rium-mediated method. Results of GUS activity indicatedthat the co-transformed plant with pBBT7 and pBTGshowed a high level of GUS activity. The results demon-strated that the coupled expression system of T7 polymeraseand T7 promoter was workable in plants.     

草莓果实成熟变化的研究

“拉瑞特”草莓采后成熟期间,花青素快速累积,呼吸速率逐渐下降,成熟后期产生少量乙烯。虽然总游离氨基酸含量不断增加,但各成熟期果实中均未检出蛋氨酸的存在。采后三天的果实硬度下降二倍,纤维素含量减少50％,而纤维素酶活性上升二倍。标记尿嘧啶核苷酸和亮氨酸掺入RNA和蛋白质的量随成熟明显增加。本文讨论了草莓成熟变软与纤维素酶活性上升的关系以及成熟期间RNA和蛋白质代谢的变化规律。
