银额果蝇的B染色体研究 1: 昆明群体的Bs数目和频率

银额果蝇昆明群体有丝分裂中期核型中存在B染色体, 出现频率为69.1%在已 研究过的来自各个地区的银额果蝇中, 昆明群体的B染色体频率最高。B染色体 数目为1—6条。该群体内单雌系间的B染色体数目不同, 个体间和细胞间的B染色 体数目也不同。在核型中, B染色体最小, 形态稳定, 点状, C-带和G-带呈阳性 。 图版1图2表1参12

银额果蝇的B染色体研究2: 昆明群体的生活力和B染色体的关系

银额果蝇的B染色体在其生长和发育过程中具双重性调节作用。一方面, B染色体以单一的形式存在于单雌系核型中, 即1B或2Bs可刺激生长发育,增强生活力。另一方面, 在单雌系的细胞中存在多条B染色体, 并形成核型多态性, 似乎对生长发育有一定的抑制作用而减弱其生活力。图1表1参5

Stability and molecular modeling of triplex DNA inhibiting DNA binding protein binding to the core promoter of hepatitis B virus.

Two three-dimensional structure models of the 21nt oligodeoxyribonucleotides, CPI (G3TG-2TGT2G5TG2TGT) and CP3 (TGTG2TGST2GTG2TG3), were constructed by InsightII (MSI) software in IRIS Indigo2 (SGI) workstation using the crystal structure of TAT tripler formation as the template. The initial structures subsequently were minimized by molecular mechanics. The final structures were believed as the dominant conformation. The results showed that the energy of CP1 is lower than that of CP3, and the former is more stable than the latter. Moreover, the results further proved that the 21nt oligodeoxyribo-nucleotide CP1 stably combines with the core promoter (Cp) fragment of hepatitis B virus (HBV) to form a tripler DNA, and CP1 specifically inhibits a specific cellular factor (DNA binding protein) binding to Cp fragment. These results indicated that specific repression of gene transcription of HBV DNA might be possible by tripler-formation DNA.

Molecular phylogeny and biogeography of woolly flying squirrel (Rodentia : Sciuridae), inferred from mitochondrial cytochrome b gene sequences

To investigate the genetic diversity between the populations of woolly flying squirrels (Eupetaurus) from the eastern and western extremes of the Himalayas, partial mitochondrial cytochrome b gene sequences (390-810bp) that were determined from the museum specimens were analyzed using maximum parsimony (MP) and maximum likelihood (ML) methods. The molecular data reveal that the two specimens that were collected in northwestern Yunnan (China) are members of the genus Eupetaurus. Reconstructed phylogenetic relationships show that the populations of Eupetaurus in the eastern and western extremes of the Himalayas are two distinct species with significant genetic differences (12%) and diverged about 10.8 million years ago. Eupetaurus is significantly different from Petaurista and Pteromys. The level of estimated pairwise-sequence divergence observed between Eupetaurus and Petaurista or Pteromys is greater than that observed between Eupetaurus and Trogopterus, Belomys, Glaucomys, or Hylopetes. Considering the divergence time of the two Eupetaurus groups, the glaciations and the uplift of the Himalayas and Qinghai-Tibet plateau during the Pliocene-Pleistocene period might be the major factors affecting the present distribution of Eupetaurus along the Himalayas.

增强UV-B辐射下一氧化氮对小球藻氮素代谢和类囊体的保护作用

由于到达地球表面的紫外线B辐射不断加强,生物生长受到了威胁。UV-B的增强改变了生物体赖以生存的环境,影响了藻类生物生长,抑制了其光合作用。以BG11为培养基,在室内培养的条件是光照强度为60μmol·m-2s-(1昼夜比为12h∶12h),温度为26℃,研究了一氧化氮(NO)在增强UV-B(强度为0.2J·m-2s-1)辐射下的对小球藻的作用。测定了小球藻的硝酸还原酶(NR,nitrate reductase)、亚硝酸还原酶(NiR,nitrite reductase)、谷胱甘肽还原酶(GS,gluta

A subdivision-based implementation of the hierarchical b-spline finite element method

A novel technique is presented to facilitate the implementation of hierarchical b-splines and their interfacing with conventional finite element implementations. The discrete interpretation of the two-scale relation, as common in subdivision schemes, is used to establish algebraic relations between the basis functions and their coefficients on different levels of the hierarchical b-spline basis. The subdivision projection technique introduced allows us first to compute all element matrices and vectors using a fixed number of same-level basis functions. Their subsequent multiplication with subdivision matrices projects them, during the assembly stage, to the correct levels of the hierarchical b-spline basis. The proposed technique is applied to convergence studies of linear and geometrically nonlinear problems in one, two and three space dimensions. © 2012 Elsevier B.V.
