Yangmai 158) leaves during dark-induced senescence was performed. It was found that there was much higher endoproteolytic activity in dark-induced wheat leaves than in control. Six endopeptidase isoenzymes (EP1-EP6) were identified by natural gradient-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE) co-polymerized gelatin in the gel, five of which (EP1, EP2, EP4, EP5 and EP6) were only detected in senescing leaves. Treatment with 6-benzyl aminopurine (6-BA) delayed the expression of these EP isoenzymes and abscisic acid (ABA) accelerated it. The activity of EP3 could be detected at a wider range of pH and temperature levels while EP4, EP5 and EP 6 could be only detected at pH 4-5 and 30 -45 degreesC, EP1 and EP2 at pH 3-5 and 30-45 degreesC. All of the EP isoenzymes showed high thermal stability, especially EP3, EP5 and EP6 which still had activitiy even by incubation at 55 degreesC for 1 h. By using different class-specific inhibitors, EP1 and EP2 were characterized as metal-dependent cysteine-proteases, EP4 as a serine-protease.展开更多

The transcription of WRN1 mRNA was down-regulated by natural- and dark-induced senescence. But it was not senile-tissue-specific. As the two key histidine residues were replaced, WRN1 may not be active as RNase. Southern blotting analysis showed that WRN1 exists as one of a small gene family in common wheat genome.展开更多

In this new approach, a corrected periodic gravitational coupling constant arises and plays the role of periodic damping term acting on the theory. It is found that it is achievable to have an oscillating universe dominated by dark energy and expanding aceeleratedly in time.展开更多

It is further tested to be consistent with the famousthreshold-value-oriented method for rather larger distances.

An excellent agreement is obtained withthe theoretical predictions based on the nonlinear Schrddinger equation.

The effects of diborane concentration, thickness and substrate temperature on the growth and properties of B-doped layers and the performance of solar cells with high deposited rate i-layers are investigated. With the optimum p-layer deposition parameters, a higher efficiency of 5.5% is obtained with 0.78nm/s deposited i-layers. In addition, the carriers transport mechanism of p-type μc-Si： H films is discussed.展开更多
