一个简单高效的甘蓝转化系统的建立

将苗龄为５－７天的甘蓝子叶柄下胚轴分别培养于再生率很高的两个培养其中。当培养７－１０天时，通过基因枪轰击，进行ＧＵＳ基因的转移，结果表有，ＧＵＳ基因导入了甘蓝细胞并进行了瞬间表达。     

钝齿棒杆菌YL_1基因文库的建立及异亮氨酸基因在大肠杆菌中的克隆表达

以ｐＵＣ１９质粒为载体建立了异亮氨酸产生菌钝齿棒杆菌（Ｃｏｒｙｍｅｂａｃｔｅｒｉｕｍｃｒｅｎａｔｕｍ）ＹＬｌ的基因文库，并通过酶切重组子、斑点杂交得到证实．共筛选５８００个重组子，一个特定ＤＮＡ片断在库中存在的可靠性达９９．９９％．从中克隆重组了带有ｉｌｖＡ基因片断的重组质粒ｐＹＩ９４，转化ＡＨＶ的大肠杆菌ＥＤ８６５４－５，使本来不产Ｉｌｅ的大肠杆菌可以积累Ｉｌｅ１．５ｇ／Ｌ，为进一步高效表达构建工程菌创造了条件．     

电击基因转移系统的研究

插入Tn21质粒的分离和链霉素抗性基因质粒的组建

在携带R100.1和pSO101质粒的Lc2640细胞中分离到重组质粒pXZ2712,该质粒对链霉素、氯化汞、磺胺和四环索有抗性。用仅带有Tn21两个末端的质粒pXZ2作为探针进行分子杂交,发现两者有同源性,说明质粒pXZ2712是由Tn21插入质粒pSC101所组成的。以pXZ2712质粒中分离到的带有链霉素抗性基因的片段,组建了带有抗链霉素基因的pXZ6(14.5kb)、pYP1(9.7kb)、pYP22(9.1kb)和pYP4(4.0kb)等质粒载体。     

Butyrate-induced reactivation of the fetal globin genes: A molecular treatment for theβ-hemoglobinophaties

The inherited -hemoglobinopathies (sickle cell disease and thalassemia) are the result of a mutation in the adult () globin gene. The fetal globin chain, encoded by the globin genes, can substitute for the mutated or defective globin chain, but expression of the globin gene is developmentally inactivated prior to birth. Reinducing expression of the normal fetal globin genes is a preferred method of ameliorating sickle cell disease and the thalassemias. Stimulation of as little as 4–8% fetal globin synthesis in the bone marrow can produce >20% fetal hemoglobin in the peripheral circulation, due to enhanced survival of red blood cells containing both sickle and fetal hemoglobin, compared to those containing sickle hemoglobin alone. Butyric acid and butyrate derivatives are generally safe compounds which induce fetal hemoglobin production by stimulating the promoter of the fetal globin genes. An initial trial with the parent compound, delivered as Arginine Butyrate, has demonstrated rapid stimulation of fetal globin expression to levels that have been shown to ameliorate these conditions. Phase 1 trials of an oral butyrate derivative with a long plasma half-life have just begun. These agents now provide a specific new apporach for ameliorating these classic molecular disorders and merit further investigation in larger patient populations.     

B12基因在小鼠部分肝切除后的表达差异分析

B12是一种受TNF-α诱导的蛋白．利用肝脏部分切除小鼠模型以及核酸酶保护反应研究了B12基因在肝脏部分切除后不同时间的表达差异，发现在受损后28h，B12的表达开始增强，到36h表达一直呈上升趋势，推测该基因可能与肝脏修复过程中DNA的复制有关，为B12基因的进一步的功能研究提供了理论基础．     

扬子鳄DMRT1基因DM保守区的克隆及序列分析

DMRT1基因是DMRT基因家族的一个重要成员,在动物性别决定过程中发挥重要作用.本文参照人DMRT1基因DM保守区及有关文献,设计了一对简并引物,扩增了扬子鳄的DMRT1基因,并对扩增产物进行了亚克隆与测序.结果在雌雄扬子鳄个体中各获得一个预期的基因片段,长度为140bp,序列无性别差异性,命名为扬子鳄AsDMRT1基因.序列同源性分析表明,扬子鳄DMRT1基因DM盒区核苷酸序列与人和鼠相应基因的同源性分别为87%、86%;编码的氨基酸序列与人和鼠相应基因编码序列的同源性分别为95%、97%.充分显示了DMRT1基因在进化上的高度保守性.
