Genetic analysis of all-fish growth hormone gene transferred carp (Cyprinus carpio L.) and its F-1 generation

Recombinant "all-fish" growth hormone gene (GH) was microinjected Into the fertilized eggs of carp. A comparison between the growth traits of transgenics and non-transgenics was carried out, and the transgenic individuals with significant "fast-growing" effect were successfully gained. A comparison on the reproductivities was also given out between the transgenics and their non-transgenic siblings, and showed that the reproductive capacity of transgenics was substantially equivalent to those of the non-transgenics. On the other hand, the genetic separation and the characteristic distribution of the F-1 generation were genetically analyzed, which gave solid evidence for the hypothesis that 2-3 chromosomes are integrated with transgene. In addition, the distinct biological effects for multisite-integrated transgenes were further discussed. The present study opens a door for the breeding of "fast-growing" transgenic fish.

Ion-channel sensing of ferricyanide anion based on a supported bilayer lipid membrane

Ferricyanide anion has usually been used as a marker of ion-channel sensors. In this work we first found that ferricyanide, itself, can act as a stimulus to regulate the permeability of sBLM prepared from didodecyldimethylammonium bromide (a kind of synthetic lipid) on a GC electrode. We used cyclic voltammetry and a.c. impedance to investigate this phenomenon. The interaction between sBLM and ferricyanide concerns time. Furthermore, we developed a sensor for ferricyanide anion. The ion-channel sensor is highly sensitive. It can detect ferricyanide concentration as low as 5 muM.

Expression, purification of recombinant flounder MRF4 protein in Escherichia coli and analysis of its polyclonal antibodies

MRF4 is one of muscle regulatory factors and plays critical roles during skeletal muscle development. The muscle development is important for the fish growth which is an important economic factor for the fish culture. To analyze the function of MRF4 in fish, the founder MRF4 antibody was prepared. The flounder MRF4 was cloned, ligated into prokaryotic expression vector pET-30b and expressed in strain E. coli BL21 (130). The recombinant flounder MRF4 fusion protein was soluble and purified with cobalt IMAC resins. To prepare MRF4 polyclonal antibodies, rabbits were immunized with the soluble protein and the increasing level of antibodies was determined by Western blot. Also, the endogenous flounder MRF4 was recognized by the anti-serum. The result further proved the existence of the anti-MRF4 antibody in the anti-serum, which will be useful for studies on the function of flounder MRF4.

东太平洋海隆13°N附近热液硫化物形成过程

东太平洋海隆13°N附近热液区构造环境上属于快速扩张中心，该区段洋中脊拉张速率达到了12cm/yr，轴部地堑平均水深2630m。本文即是对该研究区（103°54.41´W, 12°42.68´N）获得的热液烟囱体硫化物样品展开了研究。借助偏光显微镜观察了硫化物显微结构特征，并分析了硫化物中的矿物组合。东太平洋海隆13°N附近热液硫化物中常见矿物为Fe硫化物和Zn硫化物，并经历了由早期Fe硫化物为主转变为晚期成熟化以Zn硫化物为主的过程；根据观察到的显微结构，东太平洋海隆13ºN附近热液硫化物的形成至少可划分出四个阶段即黄铁矿阶段、黄铜矿阶段、黄铁矿-闪锌矿和闪锌矿阶段。 建立了热液硫化物样品中常、微量元素的测试方法，测定了东太平洋海隆13°N附近常、微量元素组成，并与有沉积物覆盖的北胡安德富卡脊Middle Valley烟囱体硫化物和弧后环境的北斐济盆地富Zn型烟囱体硫化物进行了对比。以Cu、Pb、Zn相对含量百分比划分，东太平洋海隆13ºN附近热液硫化物属富Zn型。 阐述了东太平洋海隆13ºN附近热液硫化物微量元素组成空间变化特征及元素比值在样品中的演化，并分析了常微量元素之间及元素/Cu值与1/Cu之间的相关性。Cd、Ga、In主要以类质同像的形式存在于Zn硫化物中，Co的主要寄主矿物是Zn硫化物。在东太平洋海隆13°N附近热液硫化物的形成过程中，常量元素Cu、微量元素Mo趋向于在高温(T>300℃)条件下自流体相沉淀。对东太平洋海隆13°N附近热液硫化物而言，硫化物样品中Cu含量、Cu/Pb及Mo/Pb值可以为形成硫化物的流体的温度变化提供指示性佐证；对应于形成硫化物的流体温度由高温至低温的演化，流体化学组成也相应地发生了演化，其中Sr、Ba、Au等微量元素按指数函数规律富集。对获取的硫化物样品进行了R型因子分析，旋转后获得的因子可以区分出形成硫化物的流体的温度和化学组成这两个因素的影响。 在热力学计算的基础上绘制了东太平洋海隆13°N附近热液Fe-S-H2O系统布拜图，据此阐明了实际情况下东太平洋海隆13°N附近热液流体由高温至低温的过程中，硫化物中优势矿物黄铁矿的稳定场的演化。在此基础上结合已有的动力学实验和硫同位素分馏的研究成果，揭示了沉淀硫化物的热液活动过程中形成优势矿物黄铁矿的可能的主要化学反应历程和形成硫化物的流体的温度变化对黄铁矿形成的热力学机制的影响。

Flow cytometry and ultrastructure of cryopreserved red seabream (Pagrus major) sperm

The objectives were to assess motility, fertilizing capacity, structural integrity, and mitochondrial function in fresh versus frozen-thawed (15% DMSO was used as a cryoprotectant) sperm from red seabrearn (Pagrus major). Mean (+/- S.D.) rates of motility, fertilization and hatching of frozen-thawed sperm were 81.0 +/- 5.4, 92.8 +/- 1.9, and 91.8 +/- 5.2%, respectively; for fresh sperm, they were 87.5 +/- 7.7, 95.8 +/- 2.4, and 93.8 +/- 4.2%. Although motility was lower in frozen-thawed versus fresh sperm (P < 0.05), there was no effect (P > 0.05) of cryopreservation on fertilization or hatching. Based on scanning and transmission electron microscopy, 77.8 +/- 5.6% of fresh sperm had normal morphology, whereas for frozen-thawed sperm, 63.0 +/- 7.2% had normal morphology, 20.6 +/- 3.1% were slightly damaged (e.g. swelling or rupture of head, mid-piece and tail region as well as mitochondria), and 16.4 +/- 4.2% were severely damaged. Sperm were stained with propidium iodide and Rhodamine 123 to assess plasma membrane integrity and mitochondrial function, respectively, and examined with flow cytometry. For fresh sperm, 83.9% had an intact membrane and functional mitochondria, whereas for frozen-thawed sperm, 74.8% had an intact membrane and functional mitochondria, 12.7% had a damaged membrane, 9.9% had nonfunctional mitochondria, and 2.6% had both a damaged membrane and nonfunctional mitochondria. In conclusion, ultrastructure and flow cytometry were valuable for assessment of frozen-thawed sperm quality; cryopreservation damaged the sperm but fertilizing ability was not significantly decreased.

湖南、广西泥盆纪硅岩地球化学与沉积构造背景

During the Devonian, a complicated carbonate platform-basin configuration was created through transtensional rifting in the context of opening of Devonian South China Sea; extensive bedded chert, commonly interbedded with tuffaceous beds, occurred in the narrow, elongate interplatform basins (or troughs) in South China, where they occurred earlier (Early Devonian) in southern Guangxi and later (early Late Devonian) in northern Guangxi-south central Hunan. In order to unravel the origin and distribution of the bedded chert successions, and their relationships to basement faulting activities during the opening of the Devonian South China Sea, studies of element (major, minor and REE) geochemistry and Rb-Sr, Sm-Nd isotopic systematics are carried out upon the chert deposits. These chert deposits commonly have high SiO2 contents and (average 94.01%) and low TFe2O3 (average 0.55%), together with other geochemical parameters, suggestive of both biogenic and hydrothermal origins. However, Fe/Ti ratio are high along the elongate interplatform basins(troughs) to the northwest along Wuxiangling-Zhaisha-Chengbu, and to the southeast along Xiaodong-Mugui-Xinpu, suggesting relatively intense hydrothermal activities there. They generally contain very low total REE contents (∑REE average 31.21ug/g) with mediate negative Ce anomalies (mean Ce/Ce*=0.83) and low Lan/Cen values (average 1.64), indicating an overall continental margin basin where they precipitated. The northward increases in Ce/Ce* values, particularly along the elongate troughs bounded both to the east and west of the Guangxi-Huanan rift basin, suggest a northward enhancement of terrigenous influences, thereby reflecting a gradual northward propagation of open marine setting. Generally low positive Eu anomalies in the chert, except for the apparently high Eu anomalies in the chert from Chengbu (Eu/Eu* up to 4.6), suggest mild hydrothermal venting activities in general, except for those at Chengbu. The initial 87Sr/86Sr (0) ratios of chert generally vary from 0.712000 to 0.73000 , suggesting influences both from terrigenous influx and seawater. The Nd isotopic model ages (tDM or t2DM) and initial εNd (0) values of chert vary mostly from 1.5 to 2.1 Ga, and from –16 to –21, respectively, implying that the silica sources were derived from the provenances of the Palaeoproterozoic crust relics at depth. The high εNd (0) values of chert (-0.22 to 14.7) in some localities, mostly along the elongate troughs, suggest that silica sources may have been derived from deeper-seated mantle, being channeled through the interplate boundary fault zones extending downwards to the mantle. At Wuxiangling, Nanning, chert occurs extensively from the Emsian through the Frasnian strata, both U/Th ratios and tDM ages of chert reached up to a maximum in the early Frasnian corresponding to the extensive development of chert in South China, pointing to a maximum extensional stage of Devonian South China basin, which is supported by the Ce/Ce* values as is opposed to the previous datasets as the coeval minimum values.
