[Method] Based on HSP70 sequence of Cyprinus carpio （AY120894）, one pair of primers was designed and synthesized, while the total RNA of liver tissues in Cyprinus carpio was extracted. Some cDNA fragments of Cyprinus carpio HSP70 were cloned by RT-PCR, and its differential expression in various tissues such as heart, intestine, mucus, gonad, swim bladder, gill and fin in Cyprinus carpio was also studied. [Result] The cDNA sequence of 480 bp was obtained from Cypdnus carpio HSPTO gene by RT-PCR amplification. Homology comparison between the deduced amino acid sequence after sequencing and that of other types of fish showed that the homology among Cyprinus carpio, Danio rerio, Ohcorhynehus mylciss, Paralichthys olivaceus, Xiphophoorus maculates and Carassius auratus was 96%, 98%, 98%, 96%, 98% and 96% respectively. The expression of HSP70 was detected in eight tissues of Cypnnus carpio. The expression was the highest in heart, followed by swim bladder and fin, but there was no significant difference between them （ P 〉 0.05 ）. There was no significant difference among the ex- pression in three tissues of intestine, mucus and fat （ P〉0.05）, but their expression was significantly higher than those in gonad and gill （ P〈 0.05）. [ Conclusion] HSPTO gene expression is a suitable criterion for monitoring the stress degree, stress capacity and healthy conditions in Cyprinus carpio breeding.展开更多

Kinetic and stoichiometric parameters for growth were determined. The cardinal temperatures of this yeast strain were 14 ℃, 33 ℃ and 41 ℃. C. utilis exhibited no absolute requirement for growth factors, although its maximum specific growth rate （μmax） was higher in the mineral salts medium with yeast extract than without, but its biomass yield coefficient （Yx/s） did not differ much in these two media. In the enzymatic hydrolysate, its Yx/s value on sugar was 0.44 with a μmax of 0.35 h^-1, whereas the corresponding values were 0.52 and 0.48 h^-1 in the acid hydrolysate and 0.50 and 0.37 h^-1 in the mineral salts medium without yeast extract. The crude protein content of biomass grown in the glucose medium and the acid and enzymatic hydrolysates were 47.5%, 49.1% and 56.7%, respectively. The amino acid profile of the yeast biomass compared favourably with the FAO standard. Cassava peel hydrolysate has potential as a cheap carbohydrate feedstock for the production of yeast single cell protein by using C. utilis.展开更多
