The topological configuration and conformational analysis of mRNA in translation

The theoretical model construction of mRNA hairpin structure and single-stranded structure as well as the simulation studies on RNA structure determined by the X-ray crystal diffraction and nuclear magnetic resonance revealed that in translation, after mRNA being unfolded into single-stranded structure, its topological configuration was closely correlative with the original hairpin structure. The conformational features of single-stranded mRNA appeared as helical regions alternating with curly regions to different extents, which might exert the influence on the folding of nascent polypeptide by various regulating effects including different translational rates.

Habitat degradation of Rhinopithecus bieti in Yunnan, China

Black-and-white snub-nosed monkeys (Rhinopithecus bieti) are endemic to the Trans-Himalayas in Northwest Yunnan and Southeast Tibet between the upper Yangtze and Mekong Rivers. Based on field surveys and previous reports, we identified the dark-coniferous forest, the mixed coniferous and broadleaf forest, and oak patches as suitable habitats (SH) for the monkeys. Summer grazing lands (SGL), which were made by local people cutting and burning the dark-coniferous forest at the high altitude belt, replaced SH. To have a general view of the status of the SH in Yunnan, we estimated the areas of SH and SGL from satellite images in 1997, and compared with areas estimated from aerial photo-based maps (ca. 1958). The work resulted in: 1) the area of SH was 4,169 km(2) in 1997; 2) SGL was 1,923 km(2); 3) during the past 40 years, the area of SH decreased by 31% (1,887 km(2)), and SGL increased by 204% (1,291 km(2)); and 4) the mean size of forest patches decreased from 15.6 to 5.4 km(2). In addition, the area of SGL is positively correlated to local human population (R-2 greater than or equal to0.53), implying that the reduction and fragmentation of habitat for Rhinopithecus bieti is a result of population growth of humans, who mostly employ traditional modes of production. Only 11 monkey groups remained in the changing habitat. Considering that forests at lower elevation were also encroached upon by farmlands in a similar way, the forest ecosystem is highly threatened. The destruction will continue unless there is a change in the mode of production in the region.

Experience using MEMS-based accelerometers in dynamic testing

Measurement of acceleration in dynamic tests is carried out routinely, and in most cases, piezoelectric accelerometers are used at present. However, a new class of instruments based on MEMS technology have become available and are gaining use in many applications due to their small size, low mass and low-cost. This paper describes a centrifuge lateral spreading experiment in which MEMS and piezoelectric accelerometers were placed at similar depths. Good agreement was obtained when the instruments were located in dense sands, but significant differences were observed in loose, liquefiable soils. It was found that the performance of the piezoelectric accelerometer is poor at low frequency, and that the relative phase difference between the piezoelectric and MEMS accelerometer varies significantly at low frequency. © 2010 Taylor & Francis Group, London.

微囊藻毒素LR诱导L-02细胞发生凋亡

目的了解微囊藻毒素(MC)LR对L-02细胞的毒性机制。方法以L-02细胞为材料,用不同浓度的MCLR处理该细胞,观察了细胞增殖能力、细胞形态改变、乳酸脱氢酶(LDH)泄漏、细胞凋亡率及凋亡相关基因等一系列指标的变化。结果 MTT细胞增殖实验可知,MCLR在24 h内对L-02细胞有轻微的抑制作用,随后却促进细胞增殖。48 h处理对 LDH泄漏没有显著影响,延时处理导致LDH泄漏发生,且MCLR浓度越高,LDH泄漏越严重,此结果显示发生了细胞氧化损伤。光镜下50μg/ml的毒素浓度在60 h处理后可造成明

饲养条件下白豚的游动及呼吸行为观察

１９９２年５月到１０月，我们对养于中国科学院水生生物研究所白豚馆的１头白豚进行了游动和呼吸及其昼夜节律的研究。根据游速测定将其游动分为慢速游、中速游和快速游３类。慢速游为最基本的游动方式，其１天中每小时所占的时间份额无明显的昼夜差异，而中、快速游则白天显著多于夜晚；因此，我们所观察到的白暨豚夜晚运动减缓的节律是中、快速游减少的结果。白豚１天中平均呼吸频率为１０６．０５次／ｈ（１．７７次／ｍｉｎ）。其平均呼吸间隔时间为３０．６２±２４．５５ｓ，范围１．０４—３１６ｓ。白豚的呼吸模式为１次长间隔呼吸之
