Abstract
Abstract:It is a potential valuable way using transgenic Cholrella as a bioreactor to produce alien proteins. In this paper, the vector containing the NP-1 gene under the control of the Ubiquitin promoter and two selective marker genes NPTII and nitrate reductase gene was constructed. The NP-1 gene was transformed into the nitrate reductase-deficient mutant nrm-4 of C. ellipsoidea via a protoplast transformation method. The transformed nrm-4 cells were screened on the medium with nitrate and G418. The transgenic lines were characterized by PCR amplification of both the NP-1 gene and NPTII genes from genomic DNA isolated from transformants. The transgenic nrm-4 was further cultured in the liquid medium with nitrate but without G418. In vitro assay results showed that the protein of the transgenic C. ellipsoidea had effective bacteria- resistance activities and it is stable without G418 selection stress. The research provided a new way to express alien genes in Chlorella, and the basis to largely produce NP-1.

Abstract
The teiR gene was amplified by PCR from the genomic DNA of C. testosteroni. The PCR products were cloned into plasmid pKtac2 (containing tac promoter)and pK18, constructing the recombinant plasmids pKtac2-teiR and pKteiR100.The two plasmids were transformed into Escherichia coli HB101 respectively. The total cell lysate of the host bacteria was extracted to detect the quantity of teiR using ELISA. The results showed that plasmid containing tac promoter (pKtac2-teiR) had a higher transcription level than plasmid pKteiR100. Meanwhile, the recombinant plasmids were respectively co-transformed into E. coli HB101 with plasmid p6 (containing 3a-HSD/CR gene).The total cell lysate of the host bacteria was extracted to detect the quantity of teiR and 3a-HSD/CR using ELISA. The results indicated that teiR could significantly promote the 3a-HSD/CR gene expression; and the teiR expression of pKtac2-teiR was higher than that of pKteiR100 after co-transformation with p6. But interestingly , the expression quantity of 3a-HSD/CR co-transformed with plasmids pKtac2-teiR and p6 was less than that co-transformed with plasmids pKteiR100 and p6.

Abstract
In our experiment, two E. coli expression vectors(pET28a(+)、pGEX-KG) with different translation intiation regions(TIR) and two E. coli expression strains(BL21(DE3)、Rossetta(DE3)) with different tRNA profiles had been used to obtain four bioengineered bacterium of fasG gene. The aim of the experiment was to examine the influence of secondary structures of TIR and the rare codens to the expression of fasG gene. The result of inducing expression of the bioengineered bacteriums showed that the secondary structures of TIR and the existence of rare codens can both influence the expression of target genes, optimizing either could both enhance the expression lever of target gene. The plasmid pKG-fasG had optimized the secondary structures of TIR and Rossetta(DE3) had overcome the rare condons’effects, so the expression lever of pKG-fasG Rossetta(DE3) achieved 16%, add to 100% in comparison with pET-fasG BL21(DE3)(8%). The result of this experiment indicated that the selection of appropriate expression vectors and strains was very important in the expressions of heterologous genes.

Abstract
Genetic diversity and genetic differentiation of Cryphonectria parasitica,which were from China, Japan, Italy and the USA, were analyzed using inter simple sequence repeat (ISSR) molecular technique. Using 11 primers filtrated from total 53 primers, ISSR amplification was conducted in 220 individuals from eleven Cryphonectria parasitica subpopulations which were from four countries, and 174 polymorphic loci were detected from total 177 loci. The percentage of polymorphic loci (P) of the total populations was 98.31%, while that at a subpopulation level averaged 20.43 %. Shannon’s Information index (I) and Nei’s gene diversity (h) of the fungus at the total populations level was 0.1769 and 0.7386, respectively. The mean of I and h at a subpopulation level was 0.0943 and 0.0614, respectively. It indicated that the genetic diversity of C. parasitica between the populations was relatively high. The genetic differentiation coefficient (Gst) among populations was 0.7386. The gene flow (Nm) among populations was low down to 0.1769. The mean of pair-wise genetic distance between eleven C. parasitica subpopulations was 0.2289. These eleven subpopulations could be clustered into three groups using unweighted pair group method with arithmetic mean (UPGMA).

2008, 16(4): 0-  | doi:  |  Full text (HTML) (1 KB)  | PDF   PDF   (0 KB)  ( 207 )
Abstract
The head kidney macrophages and peripheral blood granulocytes isolated from the head kidney of Cyprinus carpio were purified by means of Percoll gradient density centrifugation and were exposed to Lentinan in vitro. The effects of the polysaccharide on the peripheral blood granulocytes proliferation, respiratory burst of macrophage and IL-1βmRNA expression of macrophages were investigated by using MTT(3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyl tetrazolium bromide) ,NBT(nitroblue tetrazolium) reduction, Griess reagent coloration and Real time PCR respectively, to evaluate the immunostimulant of the polysaccharide and compare its immune activities with the control group. Results showed that Lentinan stimulated markedly the proliferation of the peripheral blood granulocytes and could induce superoxide anion in macrophages markedly. Lentinan had no conspicuous effect on nitrogen burst activity of macrophages, moreover it inhibited the nitrogen burst activity at higher doses. The polysaccharide stimulated IL-1βexpression in carp head kidney . It is suggested that Lentinan could modulate the immune response of Cyprinus carpio.

2008, 16(4): 0-  | doi:  |  Full text (HTML) (1 KB)  | PDF   PDF   (0 KB)  ( 281 )
Abstract
To obtain a recombinant Glycoprotein G1 of Akabane virus for diagnostic purpose, the gene fragment coding the high antigenic domain of AKAV G1 protein, was amplified from the AKAV genome by RT-PCR after analyzing glycoprotein G1 with bio-software. The amplified product was cloned into pMD18-T vector and sequenced. Then the gene fragment was subcloned into pET-28a (+) vector directionally. The recombinant plasmid was transformed into E. coli BL21 (DE3). SDS-PAGE and Western-blot analysis indicated that the fusion protein was insoluble and approximately 44 ku in molecular weight and had immunological activity. After purified by affinity chromatography, the concentration of purified protein was 2mg/ml and the purity was 92.6%. An indirect enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was developed using the purified recombinant protein. The optimal reaction conditions of ELISA were determined: the coating concentration of the purified recombinant protein was 20g/ ml; the dilution fold of the serum samples was 1:200. There was no cross reaction with positive sera of other six infectious diseases. Bovine serum samples from Yun Nan (77) and Inner Mongolia (70) had been detected by serum neutralizing (SN) test before were detected by this ELISA. In accordance with SN test, the positive threshold of the ELISA was determined as 0.493 and 0.488 in two districts respectively. Comparing to SN test, the speciality of the ELISA was 73% and 86.9% respectively. The agreement ratio between the two methods was 80%(52/65) and 85.9%(55/64) respectively.

2008, 16(4): 0-  | doi:  |  Full text (HTML) (1 KB)  | PDF   PDF   (0 KB)  ( 230 )
Abstract
With the Overlap-PCR methods, the 1 278 bp cds sequences of HCRTR1 gene in Qinchuan cattle was got. The fragments were cloned into the pMD18-T vector and the positive clone plasmids was sequenced. Results showed that the cloned fragments had 98% homology with the sequence of GenBank after being blasted. Digested the plasmid with BamHⅠand HindⅢ and the 1 278 bp was obtained. The obtained fragment was ligated with the longer fragment digested with the same restriction enzyme from the expression vector, pET32 a(+). The positive recombinated plasmid was transformed Bl21(DE3) and induced with IPTG. But the HCRTR1 gene cannot be expressed by E.coli. And the tranmembrane structure may explain why.

2008, 16(4): 0-  | doi:  |  Full text (HTML) (1 KB)  | PDF   PDF   (0 KB)  ( 276 )
Abstract
This study aimed to assess some factors effecting the formation of nuclear extrusion on demecolcine-induced bovine oocytes, including oocyes with or without the first polar body, different demecolcine treatment concentration and duration. The result demonstrated: treated with 0.5 μg/mL demecolcine, oocytes induced for 1 h (76.00%) gained higher rate of extrusion than those for 0.5 h (61.18%)、1.5 h (64.10%) and 2 h (63.46%). And in 1 h demecolcine-treatment, 0.4 μg/mL and 0.5 μg/mL demecolcine led to the higher rate of extrusion (75.24% and 77.31% respectively) compared to the 0.3 μg/mL (46.54%) and 0.6 μg/mL group (60.66%). In addition, there was no significant difference on the extrusion rate between oocytes with (83.24%) or without (77.54%) first polar body. To sum up, bovine oocytes induced with 0.4 μg/mL demecolcine for 1h can gain the higher rate of extrusion. And demecolcine can assist enucleation effectively in Nuclear Transfer.

Abstract
We report here the isolation and characterization of microsatellites, in Pelteobagrus fulvidraco using an enrichment protocol. The size-fractionated genomic library was screened with (AC)8、(CT)8、(AT)7、(GATA)8 and (GATT)7 oligonucleotide probes. A total of 38 clones were identified as having the microsatellite repeats, and specific 22 primer pairs were designed for 38 microsatellite loci. Of the 22 primer pairs, 18 amplified polymorphic loci in Pelteobagrus fulvidraco . At these polymorphic loci, the number of alleles per locus varied from 2 to 8(the average 3.78), the observed heterozygosities ranged from 0.2225 to 0.8101(the average 0.5755), and the polymorphism information content ranged from 0.3425 to 0.7900(the average0.5336). These 18 primer pairs were examined also in Pelteobagrus species and Siluriformes species.16 of the 18 primer pairs amplified the loci in the Pelteobagrus species,13 of the 18 primer pairs amplified the loci in the Siluriformes species. These results indicate that the microsatellites isolated in this study were highly informative and could be useful tools for genetic analysis in the Pelteobagrus species and the Siluriformes species.

2008, 16(4): 0-  | doi:  |  Full text (HTML) (1 KB)  | PDF   PDF   (0 KB)  ( 206 )
Abstract
The relative expression level of YUCAA1 gene and the amount of endogenous IAA both in RSV infected rice plants and rice suspension cells were investigated by real-time RT-PCR and high performance liquid chromatography respectively. In rice suspension cells, RSV infection resulted that the expression of YUCAA1 gene and the amount of endogenous IAA were increased 2.98 and 2.66 times respectively. Whereas in rice plants, RSV infection leaded to decrease 70% and 75% on the expression of YUCAA1 and the amount of endogenous IAA respectively. These results indicated that RSV infection could induce auxin signal transduction in rice. At the same time, the expression of RSV CP was increased 2.9 times in rice plant with KPSC buffer treatment after depleting endogenous auxins, and was decreased 45% with 30 μM IAA treatment. These suggested that auxin could regulate RSV replication in rice plant.

Abstract
Prolactin receptor(PRLR)gene was studied as a candidate gene for the prolificacy of Jining Grey goats. Eight pairs of primers were designed to detect single nucleotide polymorphisms of exon 3 to exon 9 and intron 9 of PRLR gene in both high fecundity breed (Jining Grey goat) and low fecundity breeds (Liaoning Cashmere goat and Angora goat) by PCR-SSCP. Only the products amplified by primer P8 amplifying the intron 9 displayed polymorphisms. For primer P8, only two genotypes (AA and AB) were detected in three goat breeds. Sequencing revealed one mutation (209A→G) of PRLR gene in the genotype AB in comparison to the genotype AA, and this mutation was situated in intron 9 of PRLR gene. The difference of the least squares means for litter size between AA and AB was non-significant (P>0.05) in Jining Grey goats. These results preliminarily showed that these detected loci of PRLR gene had no significant effect on prolificacy of Jining Grey goats.

Potential Commercialization of Genetically Modified Rice in China: Key Questions for Environmental Biosafety Assessments
2008, 16(4): 0-  | doi:  |  Full text (HTML) (1 KB)  | PDF   PDF   (0 KB)  ( 228 )
Abstract
The commercialization of genetically modified (GM) rice may arouse environmental biosafety concerns, including the impacts of transgenes on non-target organisms and biodiversity, transgene escape and its related ecological consequences, and transgenic influences on soil micro-fauna form extensive cultivation of GM rice. Science-based environmental biosafety assessments of GM rice will facilitate its safe and sustainable application in agriculture eco-systems. Based on the actual eco-systems and cultivation styles of rice, as well as the types of GM rice varieties that would be possibly commercially released in China, this paper presents a rational analysis of potential environmental biosafety consequences caused by the extensive commercial cultivation of the GM rice. Based on the principal of any risk assessment (risk% = hazards × exposure), the author particularly analyzed the direct and indirect influences of GM rice resistant to insects, diseases, and herbicides. Hopefully, the analysis based on the rational thinking will provide useful information for decision-making on GM rice commercialization and the relevant environmental biosafety assessments.

Abstract
Abstract: Biotic and abiotic stresses negatively influence the growth and development of plants and restrict the development of agriculture and forestry. Many transcription factors involve in the expression regulation of stress related genes by stress signal transduction,of which, DREB is one of the most important transcription factors. In this paper, the research progress on DREB in recent years was reviewed. The researches on DREB provided the important information to understand the molecular mechanism of plant stress resistance and the opportunity to develop stress resistant plants.
