[Method] The sampling data of soil copper from a county of Liaocheng, Shandong Province was set as the study objective. Kriging interpolation and sequential Gaussian simu- lation were used to simulate the spatial distribution of soil copper. And 30 sampling points were selected as the cross-validation data set to compare the two interpola- tion methods. [Result] Kriging method and Gaussian sequential simulation have their own advantages on simulating mean segment and extreme segment, therefore, re- searchers should choose the proper method based on the characteristics of test data and application purposes. [Conclusion] Analysis of soil heavy metal pollution is the prerequisite for soil management and ecological restoration. The result of this study is of important significance for choosing different interpolating and simulating methods to analyze soil heavy metal pollution based on different purposes.展开更多

DNA sequences flanking the T-DNA were analyzed with inverse PCR. Results showed that 65.4% of the T-DNA was integrated in different locations of rice genome, and some T-DNA flanking sequences were located on certain chromosomes. A number of T-DNA was found to have inserted into protein coding regions. In order to induce transposition of the inserted Ds elements, 354 crosses of Ac x Ds and Ds x Ac were constructed. The excision frequency of Ds element trans-activated by Ac transposase was 22.7% in the F-2 populations, and the transposition was confirmed with analyses of DNA sequences flanking the Ds elements. In addition to the transposition due to 'cut-paste' mechanism, Ds can replicate itself and integrate into a new locus, and inaccurate excisions were also found. A proportion of DNA segments flanking the Ds elements showed no homologies to sequences published in GenBank, of which two were registered under the accession numbers AF355153 and AF355770. The strategy of using transposon tagging for rice genomics study was discussed.展开更多

These vectors were transduced into target cells of PA317, C2C12, primary rabbit skin fibroblasts (RSF) and primary human skin fibroblasts (HSF). The expression level of mixed colonies are PA317/pKG5i’IX, 151 "g/106 cells/24h; PA317/GINaCi’IX, 308ng/106 cells/24 h; C2C12/G1 NaCi’IX, 186 ng/106 cells/24 h; RSF/GINaCi’IX, 1929 ng/106 cells/24 h; HSF/GlNaCi’IX, 1646 ng/106 cells/ 24 h. These results indicated that hFIX minigene with nitron 1 is able to increase the expression level to about 3 times of that of hFIX cDNA. Meanwhile, in order to study the application of hFIX minigene in the retroviral-mediated gene transfer system and refrain from nitron splicing during viral production, a retroviral vector GlNaCi’IXR with reversely inserted hFIX minigene expression cassette was constructed. The expression level of reverse constructor in PA317 cells was 390 ng/106 cells/24 h with 79% of bioactivity. PCR detection of HT/GlNaCi’IXR cells infected with PA317/ClNaCi’IXR supernatant confirmed the existence of nitron 1 sequence. These results suggested that expression vector with forward-inserted intronl-carrying hFIX expression cassette can be used in directed gene Human factor IX expression with nitron transfer, but when using the retroviral-mediated gene transfer system, reversely-inserted intronl-carrying hFIX expression cassette should be considered.展开更多

First, the authors give a fast B-Lex algorithm which has an explicit geometric interpretation to compute the minimal monomial interpolation basis under lexieographie order and the algorithm is in fact a generalization of lex game algorithm. In practice, people usually desire the lowest degree interpolation polynomial, so the interpolation problems need to be solved under, for example, graded monomial order instead of lexicographie order. However, there barely exist fast algorithms for the non- lexicographic order problem. Hence, the authors in addition provide a criterion to determine whether an n-variable Birkhoff interpolation problem has unique minimal monomial basis, which means it owns the same minimal monomial basis w.r.t, arbitrary monomial order. Thus, for problems in this case, the authors can easily get the minimal monomial basis with little computation cost w.r.t, arbitrary monomial order by using our fast B-Lex algorithm.展开更多
