[Method] Specific primers were designed according to NCBI database information and the conserved sequences of cry gene were amplified by PCR from Bt transgenic cotton. Then recombinant plasmids were constructed and expressed in E. coil strain Rosetta （DE3）. Finally, the effects of different concentrations and inducing time of IPTG on the expression level of protein were investigated. [Result] Two conserved sequences （304 and 853 bp respectively） of cry gene were amplified. The result of SDS-PAGE confirmed that the recombinant plasmids pGEX-4t-I-304 and pGEX-4t-1-853 could express fusion proteins by IPTG induction and the molecular weight of protein products was 39 and 62.4 kDa respectively, which was in accordance with predicted result. The optimal protein ex- pression conditions were confirmed as induction with 0.15 mmol/L IPTG for 7 h. [Conclusion] This study prepared the ground for the further detection of Bt transgenic crops.展开更多

The structural parameters and properties of Nb and Mo characteristic atoms sequences and corresponding characteristic crystals sequences were determined in Nb-Mo alloys system. The electronic structure and physical properties of disordered Nb（1-x）Mox alloys system were calculated according to concentration of characteristic atoms of disordered alloys. The change trend of physical properties is the same as that of electronic structure.展开更多

[Method] The template cDNA which was reversely transcribed from total RNA of sheep liver tissue, was subjected to polymerase chain reaction （PCR） using specific primers of ActRIIB. The ful-length cDNA of ovine ActRIIB was obtained by pMD18-T cloning and sequencing for bioinformatics analysis. Ovine ActRIIB encoding sequence was subcloned into prokaryotic expression vector pET41a with restriction sites BamHl/Notl, and then transformed into BL21 （DE3）. The induced products by lPTG were analyzed with SDS-PAGE and Western Blot. [Result] The amplified ful-length cDNA of ovine Ac-tRllB gene was 1 564 bp in length （Genbank accession number： JX422071.1） with an open reading frame of 1 539 bp, encoding 512 amino acides. Ovine ActRllB shared the highest homology （99.6%） with bovine ActRllB. ActRllB had highly ho-mologous C-terminal domains and belonged to the TGFβ family. After prokaryotic expression, an approximately 92 kD His-tagged ActRllB recombinant protein was obtained, which was consistent with the excepted result. [Conclusion] Cloning and successful expression of ovine ActRIIB laid solid foundation for further investigation of its biological function.展开更多

Results indicated that tran-scription factor WRKY35 harbors a WRKYGQK core domain and a Cys2His2 or Cys2His/Cys zinc finger in the 5’ end without transmembrane domain. After PCR amplification and restriction digestion, WRKY35 gene fragment was ligated to prokaryotic expression vector PET28. This study provided basis for expression anal-ysis of WRKY35 protein and subsequent functional identification of WRKY35 gene.展开更多

All lines showed a chromosome number of 2n = 42, five of them carried both a pair of wheat-rye (Triticum aestivum-Secale cereal) 1BL/1RS translocation chromosomes and a pair of Agropyron intermedium (Ai) chromosomes, three carried a pair of Ai chromosomes only, three others carried a pair of 1BL/1RS chromosomes only, and one carried neither 1BL/1BS nor Ai chromosome. Further identification revealed that the identical Ai chromosome in these germplasm lines substituted the chromosome 2D of common wheat (T aestivum L.), designated as 2Ai. The genetic implication and further utilization of 2Ai in wheat improvement were also discussed.展开更多

[Method] The cDNA sequence of GnRHR gene was amplified from Apis cerana cerana by using RT-PCR techniques. It was conducted with bioinformatics analysis and the in situ hybridization histochemistry of its expression products was studied. [Result] The sequence analy- sis showed that the full cDNA sequence was 1 050 bp with the open reading frame of 1 050 bp, and it encoded 349 amino acid residues. The deduced amino sequence included 7 transmembrane regions, and the predicted molecular mass and isoelectric point were 40.6 kD and 9.54, respectively. The cluster analysis showed that the GnRHR from ＇,4. cerana cerana had close relationship to the GnRHR II from other insects. In situ hybridization showed that Bee-GnRHR staining was specifically localized to the brain, intestine, fat body and testis. [Conclusion] The results indicated that the GnRHR provided molecular bond for the reproduction and metabolism for insects, and suggested a functional role for bee-GnRHR signaling in the coupling of reproduction activities and environment conditions.展开更多

The performances of these catalysts for propane dehydrogenation were investigated. The test results indicated that the addition of Ga not only could improve the catalytic stability and propene selectivity, but also could effectively prevent the catalysts from coking. It was found that the PtSnNaGa(0.5 m%)/ZSM-5 catalyst exhibited the best performance in terms of propene selectivity and propane conversion. The high catalytic performance was most probably attributed to the presence of Ga that could strength- en the interaction between metals and the support to stabilize the catalytic active sites.展开更多

Methods： Tumor tissue samples of lung cancers and paired non-tumor tissues of the lung were obtaimed from 31 lung cancer patients. Total RNA was extracted and cDNA was synthesized. Nested polymernse chain reaction amplification using MAGE-A3 specific primer was performed to detect the expression of MAGE-A3. The 10 clones of 5 samples of MAGE-A3 mRNA positive PCR products were DNA sequenced by using DNAs sequencer （PE-377）. Results： Of 31 lung cancers, 26 （83.9%） expressed MACE-A3 mRNA. The expression of MAGE-A3 gene was not detectable in the adjacent lung tissues. The DNA sequencing confirmed that the target gene fragment in all 5 samples of PCR products was MACE-A3 cDNA. Point nmtations occurred in 4 samples （8 clones） detected （C^2773→T^2773; G^2807→A^2807） resulting in alternation of amino acid residue in one position （E^143→K）. Conclusion： （1） The MAGE-A3 gene was expressed exclusively in tumor tissues of the patients with lung cancer in China. This tumor rejection antigen may have potential to be used as a new peptide vaccine for immunotherapy for lung eancers. （2） There are two point mutations of MAGE-A3 gene sequence in some Chinese lung cancer patients.展开更多
