A significant correlation for CAI values (codon adaptationindex) was observed at five nucleotide positions (-19, -18, -9, -4, +5), eight (-19, -18,-14, -9, -6, -4, -1, +5) for CPP (codon preference parameter), and seven (-18, -16, -15,-9, -7, -1, +6) for mRNA abundance in the flanking sequence of the initiator AUG codonrespectively, but a significantly positive correlation for both CAI and CPP at twopositions (-4 and +5), indicating that both those positions are evolutionally under thenatural selection constraint at the translational level. By site-directed mutagenesis atseven specific positions (-18, -16, -15, -9, -7, -1 and +6) for allergenic protein thathad the highest mRNA abundance in this study, its expression level decreased dramatically63.3 and 72.5% respectively, indicating the importance of those 7 positions for geneexpression. A highly positive correlation (r=0.625, P<0.01) between AUGCAI and GCcontent in the flanking sequence of the initiator AUG codon showed a more effectivehigher GC content on translation initiation efficiency. The strong preference for G orC at those 8 positions (-6, -5, -3, -2, -1, +4, +5 and +6) in the AUG context suggestedthat an important factor in modulation of the translation efficiency, as well assynonymous codon usage bias, particularly in highly expressed genes.展开更多
基于青岛市菜鸟驿站和含快递服务的中国邮政站点的兴趣点(point of interest,POI)数据,综合运用核密度估计、标准差椭圆、平均最近邻分析、缓冲区分析、相关性分析和主成分分析等方法,解析青岛市快递自提点的空间分布特征及影响因素。...基于青岛市菜鸟驿站和含快递服务的中国邮政站点的兴趣点(point of interest,POI)数据,综合运用核密度估计、标准差椭圆、平均最近邻分析、缓冲区分析、相关性分析和主成分分析等方法,解析青岛市快递自提点的空间分布特征及影响因素。研究结果表明:快递自提点空间分布不均衡,菜鸟驿站的站点分布比中国邮政更集中,集聚效应更明显;菜鸟驿站分布向东北-西南方向延伸,中国邮政站点呈南-北分布,密度均由内向外递减;经济、交通、人口和用地类型等是青岛市快递自提点空间分布差异的主要影响因素;从主成分分析的综合得分来看,黄岛区得分最高,快递自提点的布局较完善,城阳区、平度市、李沧区、崂山区和莱西市的综合得分小于0,快递自提站点布局存在较大改进空间。展开更多
