Methods\ Two oligonucleotide primers were synthesized according to the reported sequence of \%meq\% gene an ideal oncogenic candidate and our previously determined sequence of BamHI L fragment of Marek′s disease herpesvirus (MDV), respectively. Reverse transcriptase PCR(RT PCR) assay was performed by using these primers and the mRNA as a template which was isolated from visceral lymphoblastoid tumors obtained from chickens artificially infected with strain Beijing 1 of oncogenic MDV. Southern blot molecular hybridization was further carried out to detect the product of RT PCR with digoxigenin labeled nucleotide probe from BamHI I2 and L fragment in the gene library of MDV strain GA, respectively. Results\ Two probes could simultaneously hybridize this cDNA amplified by RT PCR with a length of about 730 bp. Conclusion\ It is suggested that \%meq\% transcription could extend from the right hand end of BamHI I2 to the adjacent BamHI L, and the BamHI L region was likely to be transcribed in MDV induced lymphoblastoid tumors.展开更多

[Method] The conventional biochemical methods and molecular biological identification method was used to do the isolation and identification of bacteria from H. maculates, and agar diffusion method was used for the susceptibility test and in vitro becteriostasis experiment. The toxins were detected using the plate method, and the intraperitoneal injection method was used to do animal experiments. [Result] Twelve strains of isolated bacteria were obtained, which could uniformly decompose glucose, maltose, but were unable to break down lactose, and they could reduce the nitrate, and were negative in hydrogen sulfide and indole. A clear band was found in 685 bp of the isolated bacteria. And the isolated bacterial all generated hemolysins. Some strains produced protease. The isolated bacterial were resistant to penicillin G, amoxicillin, but sensitive to gentamicin, ciprofloxacin, and could be inhibited by the Bacillus amyloliquefaciens. All experimental animals died within 12 hours. [Conclusion] The 12 isolates were Aeromonas veronii, Aeromonas caviae and Aeromonas hydrophila, respectively, and the deaths of H. maculates were caused by the mixed infection of Aeromonas veronii, Aeromonas caviae and Aeromonas hydrophila. The first choice drug for the treatment was ciprefloxacin, and Bacillus amyloliquefeciens could be used as the drug for ecological prevention and control.展开更多

The isolation, purification, and chemical structure of this toxin were studied. The NMR spectra, the uv spectra, and molar extinction coefficients, and the mass spectra of Flavotoxin A are in good agreement with those reported for bongkrekic acid. Therefore, Flavotoxin A and bongkrekic acid are the same organic chemical compound; the molecular formula is C_(28)H_(38)O_7. The oral LD_(50) of the purified Flavotoxin A in mice was 3.16mg/kg (1.53-6.15mg/kg). The existence of bongkrekic acid in toxic fermented corn samples collected during food poisoning outbreaks was also confirmed. It is concluded that bongkrekic acid has played an important role in the outbreaks of fermented corn poisoning. 1989 Academic Press, Inc.展开更多

We reported an iron-oxidizing bacterial strain HX3 from a municipal sludge that facilitates the formation of pure schwertmannite in cultures. Ferrous iron oxidation by the isolated strain HX3 was optimum at an initial pH of 2.0-3.3 and temperature of 28-35°C. Pure schwertmannite was found through bacterial oxidation of ferrous iron at an initial pH 2.8and temperature 28°C. Following 16 S rDNA gene sequence analysis the bacterial strain HX3 was identified as Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans. The arsenic-resistance A. ferrooxidans HX3 showed the potential of environmental application in arsenic removal from the As（Ⅲ）- and iron-rich acid sulfate waters directly by As（Ⅲ） adsorption or the formation of schwertmannite in the environment.展开更多

文摘To identify the member of the caspase family proteases involved in γ radiation induced apoptosis in HL 60 cells, using degenerated oligonucleotide primers encoding the highly conserved peptides, which were present in all known caspases, RT PCR was performed on poly (A) RNA from the γ radiation induced apoptotic HL 60 cells. Then, cloned and sequenced to identify the amplified DNA fragments. The results showed that the amplified DNA fragments were identified with a part of caspase 3 cDNA. It indicated that caspase 3 was involved in γ radiation induced apoptosis in HL 60 cells and may be the pivotal element of radiation induced apoptosis.

文摘In the introduction and propagation of red sandalwood （Pterocarpus santalinus）, a serious leaf disease of its seedlings in winter and spring seasons was found, but the name of the disease and its pathogen species have not been reported. The pathogen isolated from infected leaves of 18-month-old seedlings was identi- fied as Colletotrichum gloeosporioides by morphological characteristics of colony and conidium, and analysis results of rDNA-intemal transcribed spacer sequence （ITS） of the strain. Pathogenicity test results further confirmed that C. gloeosporioides was the pathogen responsible for the infected leaves symptoms of red sandal- wood. However, the disease belongs to an atypical anthraenose. Control of the leaf diseases of red sandalwood seedlings was discussed.
文摘This study was conducted in order to determine the fungi and bacteria associated with tomato plants at Cameron Highlands Malaysia. The fungi which have been isolated and detected from tomato plants were: Fusarium oxysporum, F. solani, F. acuminatum, Rhizoctonia solani, Colletotrichum boninense, C. acutatum and Phoma destructiva. The bacteria which have been isolated and detected from tomato plants were: Ralstonia solanacearum, Xanthomonas vesicatoria, X. gardneri and Pseudomonas syringae. While the most pathogenic fungi were C. boninense, P. destructive and F. oxysporum with the disease incidence (89.6%, 86.6%, 85.6%) respectively, the most pathogenic bacteria were X. vesicatoria and R. solanacearum with the disease incidence (96.6% and 87.6%) respectively.
文摘Collected from the broiler cecal contents, bacteria were isolated and purified. These isolated and purified Lactobacilli were detected by acidity and bile salt tolerant test, then three better tolerant strains were screened out. These three strains were conducted to observe the morphous through microscope, perform Gram stain, and to identify their physiological and biochemical characteristics. The results showed that L1 was L.casei, L2 was L.gasseri and L3 was L.graminis. With Oxford Cup method, these three Lactobacilli were detected for their bacteriostasis. Results showed that L1, L2 and L3 strains had strong antibacterial activities to E. coli and Salmonella.

文摘The centromere of eukaryotic chromosomes is the crucial locus responsible for sister chromatid cohesion and for correct segregation of chromosomes to daughter cells during cell division. In the structural genomics era, centromeres represent the last frontiers of higher eukaryotic genomes because of their densely methylated, highly repetitive and, heterochromatic DNA （Hall et al., 2004）. Although these functions are conserved among all eukaryotes, centromeric DNA sequences are evolving rapidly （Jiang et al., 2003）.
