Phosphorylation modification reverses the transcriptional inhibitory activity of CsMYB4a in tea plants(Camellia sinensis)

The members of the fourth subgroup of R2R3-MYB(Sg4 members)are well-known inhibitors of phenylpropanoid and lignin synthesis pathways.The C2 domain is closely related to the transcriptional inhibitory activity of Sg4 members.Phosphorylation modification enhances the transcriptional inhibitory activity of Sg4 members.Here,we identified a phosphorylation site on the C2 domain of Cs MYB4a from tea plants(Camellia sinensis).A mitogen-activated protein kinase(MAPK),named Cs MPK3-2,phosphorylated this site on the C2 domain of Cs MYB4a.Further experiments revealed that phosphorylation of Cs MYB4a weakened its ability to inhibit the gene expression of PAL,C4H,and 4CL in the phenylpropanoid pathway and activated the expression of transcription factor YABBY5,maintaining the adaxial-abaxial polarity of the leaf.Knocking out Nt YAB5 in Cs MYB4a transgenic tobacco partially repaired the leaf wrinkling phenotype caused by Cs MYB4a.The C1 domain exhibited an activation function when the C2 domain of Cs MYB4a was phosphorylated by Cs MPK3-2,causing this reversal phenomenon.These results enrich our understanding of the regulatory diversity of Sg4 members.

盐酸青藤碱抑制急性T淋巴细胞白血病CEM细胞株的作用及转录组学分析

背景:盐酸青藤碱有抗多种肿瘤的作用,但目前尚不清楚盐酸青藤碱对急性T淋巴细胞白血病的作用。目的:探讨盐酸青藤碱对急性T淋巴细胞白血病CEM细胞的抑制作用。方法:应用不同浓度(0.5,1,2,4 mmol/L)盐酸青藤碱处理CEM细胞,CCK-8检测细胞增殖抑制率并计算IC50;倒置显微镜和吉姆萨染色观察CEM细胞形态变化;利用RNA-Seq测序分析差异基因表达并进行生物信息学分析。结合转录组测序结果,流式细胞术检测不同浓度(1,2,4 mmol/L)盐酸青藤碱作用后CEM细胞凋亡率;Western blot检测不同浓度(1,2,4 mmol/L)盐酸青藤碱作用后CEM细胞中Bcl-2、Bax、Caspase-9蛋白的表达。结果与结论:①盐酸青藤碱呈剂量和时间依赖性地抑制CEM细胞生长;②盐酸青藤碱干预后CEM细胞数量下降,核固缩;③RNA-seq测序筛出53个异常表达基因,基因本体分析主要富集在细胞过程、细胞解剖实体与粘连关系等,信号通路分析与肿瘤相关的是细胞凋亡;④盐酸青藤碱呈剂量依赖性地促进CEM细胞凋亡;⑤盐酸青藤碱上调CEM细胞中Bax、Caspase-9蛋白表达,下调Bcl-2蛋白表达。由此可见,盐酸青藤碱可诱导CEM细胞凋亡从而抑制细胞增殖,可能与其上调Bax和Caspase-9蛋白表达,以及下调Bcl-2蛋白表达有关。

采用谐振电感复用的LCL-T/LLC谐振变换器

LLC谐振变换器有着转换效率高、软开关特性好等显著优点。但在储能系统充电的应用场合中,宽电压增益输出要求LLC谐振变换器工作频率在较大范围内变化,从而引起转换效率明显降低、磁性元件设计困难、轻载调节有限等问题。研究了一种采用谐振电感复用的LCL-T/LLC谐振变换器,可用于电动汽车的车载充电。将谐振电感置于变压器副边,构建LCL-T谐振腔使得变换器工作在恒流充电阶段,LCL-T谐振变换器的恒流特性可以显著减小变换器的工作频率范围;通过辅助开关改变谐振支路,该谐振电感也可参与LLC谐振,使变换器工作在恒压充电阶段,提供稳定的充电电压。由于谐振电感位于变压器副边,减少了死区时间内的磁芯损耗,提高了转换效率。详细分析了该变换器的工作模式和直流增益特性,给出了关键参数设计原则。最后,搭建了一台3.3 kW、400 V/330 V的实验样机,验证了变换器拓扑和控制方案的有效性。

Identification of the lysine and histidine transporter family in Camellia sinensis and the characterizations in nitrogen utilization

In plants,the lysine and histidine transporter(LHT)family represent a class of proteins that mediate the uptake,translocation,and utilization of amino acids.The tea plant(Camellia sinensis)is a perennial evergreen with a relatively high level of amino acids.However,systematic identification and molecular characterization of the LHT gene family has rarely been reported in tea plants.In this study,22 CsLHTs were identified from the‘Shuchazao’genome and classified into two groups.The modeled three-dimensional structure and the conserved domains presented a high similarity among the LHTs proteins.Moreover,it was predicted that a few genes were conserved through the analysis of the physiochemical characters,structures and cis-elements in promoters.The expression patterns in tea plants revealed that CsLHT7 was mainly expressed in the roots,and CsLHT4 and CsLHT11 exhibited relatively high expression in both the roots and leaves.Moreover,the expression of all three genes could be induced by organic nitrogen.Additionally,heterogeneous expression of CsLHT4,CsLHT7 and CsLHT11 in Arabidopsis thaliana decreased the aerial parts biomass compared with that in WT plants while significantly increased the rosette biomass only for CsLHT11transgenic plants versus WT plants.Overall,our results provide fundamental information about CsLHTs and potential genes in N utilization for further analysis in tea plants.

多力场耦合条件下T型圆管通道内流体热混合机理研究

针对海洋动力平台和船舶动力装置中T型圆管通道内冷热流体间的热混合机理尚不清楚的问题,利用大涡模拟方法,对不同支管布置方式高温高压工况下(运行压力为10 MPa,进口流体温差为275 K,摇摆雷诺数为41 500)的多力场耦合T型圆管通道内流体热混合机理进行数值研究。利用提出的混合系数定量评价了不同布置方式下T型圆管通道内流体混合效果,利用均方根温度定量评价了不同布置方式下T型圆管通道管壁处温度脉动情况。结果表明:剪切层和尾迹区内涡结构与温度场存在时间和空间上的协同机制,且涡脱落频率和温度脉动频率基本相同,脱落频率为19.3 Hz;附加惯性力引起T型圆管通道内涡结构和温度场在时间和空间上周期性变化,加速了流体混合过程,削弱了浮升力和重力引起的热分层现象,同时增大了流体域内温度波动,长度约为10.2 D(D为主管内径);与对应的静止工况相比,支管竖直向上、水平和竖直向下布置时,摇摆条件下混合系数分别增大了10.8%、18.3%和27.8%;摇摆条件竖直向下布置时,管壁处温度均方根峰值最大为0.16,约为静止工况的2倍。因此,支管竖直向上布置时,热混合效果最好,热分层现象最弱,在实际应用中应被优先考虑。

Molecular cloning and functional analysis of two calcium associated cuticular protein genes in Neocaridina denticulata sinensis

The body surface of crustaceans is covered with a sturdy shell.The growth and development of crustaceans are realized through molting.Neocaridina denticulata sinensis is a suitable candidate for crustacean scientific research.Two calcium-associated cuticular protein genes,named NdCAP-1 and NdCAP-2,were obtained from N.denticulata sinensis.Molecular docking simulated the binding effect of both proteins and calcium ions.Semi-quantitative reverse transcription PCR results show that NdCAP-1 is expressed in D_(2-4) stage,NdCAP-2 expressed in D_(2-4) and A-B stages,and both were significantly expressed in the cephalothorax cuticle and pereiopods.Then,it was revealed that NdCAP-1 and NdCAP-2 are regulated by NdEcR-mediated 20 E signaling pathways.Knockdown of NdCAP-1 and NdCAP-2 was observed to cause surface defects.The recombinant proteins(rNdCAP-1 and rNdCAP-2),obtained by prokaryotic expression,had calcium-binding and chitin-binding ability,inhibited formation of calcium carbonate precipitate.These results show that calcium-associated cuticular proteins play important roles in cuticle formation and calcification.

Ankylosing spondylitis coexisting with Clonorchis sinensis infection: A case report

BACKGROUND Ankylosing spondylitis(AS)is a chronic immune-mediated inflammatory disease.The prevailing theory links AS onset to infections in susceptible individuals.Furthermore,infections may impair the immune responses.Numerous studies have investigated links between AS and various infections-bacterial,viral,fungal,and other microorganism infections.However,limited attention has been given to the association between AS and Clonorchis sinensis(C.sinensis)infection.CASE SUMMARY A 27-year-old male with a 10-yr history of AS presented to our hospital with inflammatory lower back pain as the primary manifestation.Ten years ago,the patient had achieved a stable condition after treatment with biological agents.However,he experienced a recurrence of lumbosacral pain with an unexplained cause 10 d before hospital admission.A lumbosacral magnetic resonance imaging(MRI)scan revealed bone marrow edema in the left sacroiliac joint,and laboratory indicators were elevated.Moreover,the presence of C.sinensis eggs was detected in the stool.The patient was prescribed praziquantel,resulting in the disap-pearance of C.sinensis eggs in subsequent routine stool tests and relief from lumbosacral pain.A follow-up MRI scan performed after 4 months revealed a reduction in bone marrow edema around the left sacroiliac joint.CONCLUSION C.sinensis infections could potentially trigger the exacerbation of AS.Clinicians should pay attention to investigating the presence of infections.INTRODUCTION Ankylosing spondylitis(AS)is a chronic inflammatory and rheumatic disease resulting from an imbalance between innate and acquired immune responses[1].While it can affect any part of the spine,its primary symptoms are persistent back pain and stiffness in the lower back and pelvis.The prevalence of AS per 10000 individuals is 23.8 in Europe,31.9 in North America,16.7 in Asia,10.2 in Latin America,and 7.4 in Africa[2].Infections commonly occur in the first 3 months and may act as potential triggers for the first symptoms of AS,often manifesting as gastrointestinal,urinary tract,and respiratory infections of microbiological origin[3,4].Clonorchis sinensis(C.sinensis)infection is a severe parasitic disease affecting millions globally,especially prevalent in China,South Korea,the Far East of Russia,and Vietnam,with an estimated 15 million cases[5].Transmission occurs through the consumption of undercooked freshwater fish containing metacercariae.Adult C.sinensis parasites then establish themselves within the human hepatobiliary system[6].C.sinensis infection triggers the activation of sphingosine 1-phosphate receptor 2,leading to the injury and fibrosis of the hepatobiliary[7].Recent research in a rat model found that C.sinensis infection increases the risk of hepatocellular carcinoma by stimulating hepatic progenitor cell proliferation[8].Complications of C.sinensis infection include cholestasis,cholangitis,biliary system fibrosis,and in severe cases,the development of cholangiocarcinoma[9].Consequently,the primary preventive measure is to abstain from consuming raw or undercooked freshwater fish.Praziquantel is the recommended and effective treatment for this infection[10].While there is existing literature on the coexistence of AS and parasitic infections,there is limited research specifically addressing the simultaneous presence of AS and C.sinensis infection.This case report details a rare scenario of AS coexisting with C.sinensis infection,underscoring the potential impact of C.sinensis infection on AS disease activity.

Genome-Wide Identification of ABCC Gene Subfamily Members and Functional Analysis of CsABCC11 in Camellia sinensis

The ATP-binding cassette(ABC)transporter is a gene superfamily in plants.ATP-binding cassette subfamily C(ABCC)protein is a multidrug resistance-associated(MRP)transporter.They play various roles in plant growth,development,and secondary metabolite transport.However,there are few studies on ABCC transporters in tea plants.In this study,genome-wide association study(GWAS)analysis of epigallocatechin gallate(EGCG)content in 108 strains of Kingbird revealed that CsABCCs may be involved in EGCG transport.We identified 25 CsABCC genes at the genomic level of the tea plant,their phylogenetic tree,gene structure,targeted miRNA and other bioinformatics were analyzed.The expression patterns of CsABCCs in eight different tissues and abiotic stress indicate that they have potential roles in regulating the growth,development,and defense of tea plants.The correlation analysis revealed that the expression of the CsABCC11 gene was closely related to the EGCG content in tea buds of 108 strains of the Kingbird,and the subcellular localization experiments in tobacco showed that CsABCC11 protein was localized on the plasma membrane.The virus-induced gene silencing(VIGS)strategy in tea plants further verified that CsABCC11 was involved in EGCG accumulation.Our study laid a foundation for studying the biological function of CsABCC and provided a new candidate molecular marker gene for further EGCG-related variety breeding,which will be of great interest to breeders.

Genetic analyses of ancient tea trees provide insights into the breeding history and dissemination of Chinese Assam tea(Camellia sinensis var.assamica)

Chinese Assam tea(Camellia sinensis var.assamica)is an important tea crop with a long history of cultivation in Yunnan,China.Despite its potential value as a genetic resource,its genetic diversity and domestication/breeding history remain unclear.To address this issue,we genotyped 469 ancient tea plant trees representing 26 C.sinensis var.assamica populations,plus two of its wild relatives(six and three populations of C.taliensis and C.crassicolumna,respectively)using 16 nuclear microsatellite loci.Results showed that Chinese Assam tea has a relatively high,but comparatively lower gene diversity(H_(S)=0.638)than the wild relative C.crassicolumna(H_S=0.658).Clustering in STRUCTURE indicated that Chinese Assam tea and its two wild relatives formed distinct genetic groups,with considerable interspecific introgression.The Chinese Assam tea accessions clustered into three gene pools,corresponding well with their geographic distribution.However,New Hybrids analysis indicated that 68.48%of ancient Chinese Assam tea plants from Xishuangbanna were genetic intermediates between the Puer and Lincang gene pools.In addition,10%of the ancient Chinese Assam tea individuals were found to be hybrids between Chinese Assam tea and C.taliensis.Our results suggest that Chinese Assam tea was domesticated separately in three gene pools(Puer,Lincang and Xishuangbanna)in the Mekong River valley and that the hybrids were subsequently selected during the domestication process.Although the domestication history of Chinese Assam tea in southwestern Yunnan remains complex,our results will help to identify valuable genetic resources that may be useful in future tea breeding programs.

基于镜像T矩阵法的楔形波导中有限长圆柱声散射研究

针对楔形波导中两端带球帽的有限长圆柱声散射问题,提出了一种镜像T矩阵法进行求解。该方法是一种半解析方法,能够根据镜像原理将楔形波导中点声源入射下有限长圆柱声散射等效为无界域中多点源入射下多目标声散射问题,再结合球谐函数的平移加法定理和旋转加法定理获得楔形波导中有限长圆柱的转换矩阵(T矩阵),即可计算出楔形波导中有限长圆柱声散射半解析解。通过数值计算研究了点声源相对位置、有限长圆柱的空间姿态、浸没深度和波导倾角对楔形波导中有限长圆柱背向散射以及散射声场空间分布的影响。该工作可推广至浅海波导中多目标声散射问题研究。
