革兰氏阴性杆菌发生过程控制的研究

本研究选择奇异变形杆菌和绿肿杆菌等作为实验体系，从群体发生发展过程的宏观表现上探讨了生物控制的时空表达及非线性问题。结果表明，杆菌发生过程的时相周期性可以表现为空间的波形靶图样，并具有分形的特征。实验结果表明，菌群在生长过程中的代谢产物是富含生物信息的控制中介机制。我们认为，生物系统局部存在着准平衡和准封闭的微生态环境，生物液晶的存在和相变是细菌群体发生过程的重要协同中介因素。

RNA-binding protein is involved in aggregation of light neurofilament protein and is implicated in the pathogenesis of motor neuron degeneration

Abnormal protein aggregation is emerging as a common theme in the pathogenesis of neurodegenerative disease. Our previous studies have shown that overexpression of untranslated light neurofilament (NF-L) RNA causes motor neuron degeneration in transgenic mice, leads to accumulation of ubiquitinated aggregates in degenerating cultured motor neurons and triggers aggregation of NF-L protein and co-aggregation of mutant SOD1 protein in neuronal cells. Here, we report that p190RhoGEF, an RNA-binding protein that binds to a destabilizing element in NF-L mRNA, is involved in aggregation of NF-L protein and is implicated in the pathogenesis of motor neuron degeneration. We show that p190RhoGEF co-aggregates with unassembled NF-L protein and that co-aggregation is associated with down-regulation of parent NF-L mRNA in neuronal cells. Co-expression of NF-M increases NF assembly and reduces RNA-triggered aggregation as well as loss of solubility of NF-L protein. siRNA-induced down-regulation of p190RhoGEF not only reduces aggregation and promotes assembly of NF-L and NF-M, but also causes reversal of aggregation and recovery of NF assembly in transfected cells. Examination of transgenic models of motor neuron disease shows that prominent aggregates of p190RhoGEF and NF-L and down-regulation of NF-L expression occur in degenerating motor neurons of mice expressing untranslated NF-L RNA or a G93A mutant SOD1 transgene. Moreover, aggregates of p190RhoGEF and NF-L appear as early pathological changes in presymptomatic G93A mutant SOD1 transgenic mice. Together, the findings indicate that p190RhoGEF is involved in aggregation of NF-L protein and support a working hypothesis that aggregation of p190RhoGEF and NF-L is an upstream event triggering neurotoxicity in motor neuron disease.

荧光原位杂交同时检测精子X和Y染色体的方法

用实验手段分离X和Y染色体精子或富集特定性别染色体精子．对于预防性连锁遗传病具有潜在应用价值。建立精子X和Y染色体鉴定方法对于评估分离或富集特定性别染色体效果至关重要。本文介绍采用CY3TM和FlourXTM探针作荧光原位杂交（FISH），同时检测精子Y和X染色体。10份正常精液标本分析结果显示：X染色体精子为50．23％，Y染色体精子为49．77％；有效杂交率达91．99％。FISH方法比传统的精子染色体核型分析和奎纳克林染色检查Y荧光小体更具有简易、特异和快速的优点。     

Breakpoint clusters of the PML gene in acute promyelocytic leukemia: Primary structure of the reciprocal products of the PML-RARA gene in a patient with t(15;17)

DNA studies of the translocation t(15;17) in acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) have shown that the retinoic acid receptor alpha (RARA) gene on chromosome 17 is juxtaposed to the promyelocytic leukemia (PML) gene on chromosome 15. The PML breakpoints have been mapped to 3 clusters: bcr1, bcr2, and bcr3. We have examined the PML breakpoint distribution in a series of 33 Chinese patients with APL Twenty-two patients fell within bcr1, 2 within bcr2, and 9 within bcr3. The primary structure of the reciprocal chromosome translocation joints of one patient and that of their normal counterparts have been determined and compared to those of 2 previously reported cases. These studies revealed possible topoisomerase II cleavage sites close to the breakpoints and suggested implications of DNA attachment sites to nuclear matrix. We propose that these features are relevant to the process of illegitimate recombination generating the translocation. © 1993 Wiley-Liss, Inc.
