This sequence was amplified with the method of RT-PCR, false sequencing was corrected, and full length eDNA of the ferritin subunit from the Chinese sturgeon was obtained. After being submitted to the GenBank database, the sequence accession number EU348782 was assigned. With the length of 896 bp, this eDNA includes entire coding regions of 53 lbp, which encodes 176 amino acids (aa). The molecular weight was predicted to be 20339.9Mr and the theoretical isoelectric point 5.66. It shares 82.9% protein sequence homology with the ferritin of the Atlantic salmon. This gene is expressed in many organs of the Chinese sturgeon, for example, the liver, pancreas, muscle, brain, heart and gastric mucosa. The highest expression level was found in the pancreas and the heart, while the muscular tissue showed the lowest. Homology modeling was used to predict the 3-D structure of the protein, which included 5 alpha helices and 10 turns. The ferritin protein structure could be overlapped and showed high similarity with that of human, flog and bacteria. It was revealed that this kind of ferritin was highly conserved in structure and function.展开更多

[Method] A field experiment was conducted at two contrasting environments with three replicates and included a freezing sensitive variety (cv. Zhongshuang No. 11, ZS) and a freezing tolerant variety (cv. Ganyouza No. 1, GY). [Result] The concentrations of Ca, Mg and Fe were significantly increased in plants roots, and the concentrations of Ca and Mg were significantly decreased but the Fe concentration was significantly increased in plants shoots. In leaves, the Ca concentration stored in soluble fraction was significantly increased and the Ca concentration of organelle-contained fraction and cell wall-associated fraction were significantly decreased with experiment time. The Mg concentrations stored in soluble fraction, organelle-contained fraction and cell wall-associated fraction were decreased with time. In contrary, the Fe concentration stored in soluble fraction, organelle-contained fraction and cell wall associated-fraction was significantly increased with time. Meanwhile, the changes of these measures of ZS were much higher than those of GY during cold acclimatization, which might be due to the GY is a freezing tolerant variety but ZS is not. [Conclusion] These results suggested that increasing the concentrations of Ca, Mg and Fe in plants shoots might increase the cold resistance of oilseed rape.展开更多

The number, size and quality of crystals were significantly affected by either the concentration of precipitants and buffer or diffusion method. The longest sides of the largest crystal of DeltanifE Avl protein, which was obtained by vapor diffusion in the hanging drop method, were 0.12 and 0.13 mm, respectively.展开更多

[Method] The proteins were separated by ammonium sul-fates and ion-exchange chromatography. Purity of the proteins was assayed by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE). [Result] The results showed that the proteins were electrophoresis-pure. The specific activity of lysozyme was increased from 144.13 to 2 235 U/mg, and purification factor was 15-fold. Lysozyme recovery rate was estimated to be 15.76%. Bacteriostasis rate of ovotransferrin was 48.84%. [Conclusion] The procedure for separating lysozyme, ovotransferrin and ovalbumin from egg white was simple, fast, low-cost and suitable for industrilization.展开更多

Its acetylene reduction activity was remarkably recovered not only by incubation with the reconstituent solution composed of KMnO 4,ferric homocitrate, Na 2S and dithiothreitol, with O phenanthroline under air and chromatographying the incubated solution on Sephadex G 25 column, inactive MoFe protein could be obtained. Its acetylene reduction activity was remarkably recovered not only by incubation with the reconstituent solution composed of KMnO 4,ferric homocitrate, Na 2S and dithiothreitol, but also with a mixture of 4Fe∶4S clusters and another cluster which had two structure units of 1Mo∶3Fe∶4S bridged by three -OCH 3- at the Mo atoms. Neither the reconstituent solution nor the mixture could reactivate apo MoFe proteins from the mutants deleting nifE and nifH genes and from the mutant UW 45 , which could be reactivated by the FeMoco extracted from the MoFe protein. The results indicated that the FeMoco deficient MoFe proteins from these mutants seemed to be reconstituted only by the clusters which were probably structures only similar to FeMoco. The partially metallocluster deficient MoFe protein could be reconstituted by the clusters with a certain kind of structure and composition; and was changed into different nitrogenase proteins with the ability to fix nitrogen.展开更多

The possibility of crystallization, and number, size and quality of crystals were obviously dependent on concentrations of NaCl, MgCl2, PEG 8000,Tris and Hepes buffer and on methods for crystallization. PEG concentration affected on the shape of the crystals. The optimal, concentrations of the chemicals for crystallization of MnFe protein were slightly different from those for crystallization of Delta nifZ MoFe protein from a nifZ deleted strain of Azotobacter vinelandii. SDS-PAGE showed that the protein from the dissolved crystals was almost the same as MnFe protein before crystallization, indicating that the crystal was formed from MnFe protein.展开更多
