    Plants regularly face adverse growth conditions, such as drought, salinity, chilling, freezing, and high temperatures. These stresses can delay growth and development, reduce productivity, and, in extreme cases, cause plant death. Plant stress responses are dynamic and involve complex cross-talk between different regulatory levels, including adjustment of metabolism and gene expression for physiological and morphological adaptation. In this review, information about metabolic changes in response to drought, extreme temperature, and salinity stress were summarized.

    The ANL adenylating enzymes contains acyl- and aryl-CoA synthetases, firefly luciferase, and the adenylation domains of the modular non-ribosomal peptide synthetases(NRPSs). Members of this family catalyze a two-step reaction :the initial adenylation of a carboxylate to form an acyl-AMP intermediate, the second step commonly for formation of a thioester. With more members of the adenylateforming family of enzymes being identified, 10 conserved and important sequence motifs for catalytic activity have been revealed. The comprehensive studies of the structures and kinetics provide insight into the role of the rotation of the C-terminal sub-domain in the catalytic cycle. Such a rotation, a common strategy used by ANL adenylating enzymes, can present different conformation of the active sites to catalyze different partial reactions. In this paper,we describe the three types of ANL adenylating enzymes and summarize the research course of the ANL superfamily enzymes,conserved regions and conformational dynamics of enzymes in the process of the enzymatic reactions.

    A cDNA was cloned from Eutrema halophilum(Shangdong ecotype)using in silico cloning and RT-PCR methods. This gene was predict coding β-ketoacyl-CoA reductase, named as EhKCR1, with GenBank accession number JQ389855. The full length is 1 152 bp and contains a complete ORF with 954 bp encoding 318 amino acid. The conservative domain, hydrophobicity and second structure of EhKC1 protein were predicted by bioinformatic analysis. EhKCR1 has the putative NADH binding motif[G(X)3GXG(X)3A(X)3A(X)2G]and the essential catalytic motif(Y(X)3K). Alignment of predicted amino acid sequence of EhKCR1 with other plants and phylogenetic analysis of various EhKCR1 homologues found that EhKCR1 was very close to that from Arabidopsis thaliana and Brassica napus, but far from to EhKCR1 of monocotyledon. The results of Real-time PCR indicated that EhKCR1 was induced by ABA and drought. Therefore EhKCR1 may be connected with the strong stress tolerence of Eutrema halophilum.

    According to some identified cDNA sequence of the polyneuridine aldehyde esterase(PNAE) gene in plant species on the NCBI,pairs of primers were designed,and the partial intermediate sequence of the PNAE cDNA was obtained using RT-PCR technique in Rauvolfia yunnanensis’ fresh leaves,and then by the technique called rapid-amplification of cDNA ends( RACE),the sequence in both two flanks of the known sequence was acquired. The full length sequence of the cDNA of PNAE in Rauvolfia yunnanensis was 1 004 bp and that included an open reading frame(ORF)which encoded 264 amino acids. Sequence analysis showed that for PNAE gene the homologies of amino acid sequence among each species was a little low ranging from 40% to 60%,demonstrating PNAE gene wasn’t a gene that its complete sequence is relatively conservative. The further analysis of all the known PNAE in plant species found that there are two conservative domains in amino acid sequence,revealing that PNAE gene has two highly conserved domains among different plant species.

    RNA editing highly occurs in Takakia lepidozioides chloroplast. The reason underlying the phenominon remains unclear. In this study, with comparative genomic approach, we analized the sequences of the gene accD and its protein products in mosses Physcomitrella patens, Syntrichia ruralis, and Takakia lepidozioides. We find that RNA editing restores mutations in the gene accD of T. lepidozioides, T. lepidozioides aquires the same amino acid sequence as its homologs in Physcomitrella patens and Syntrichia ruralis. The high occurrence of RNA editing in T. lepidozioides chloroplast is an important stratigy to restore DNA mutations. RNA editing enhences T. lepidozioides the adaptation to survive under the high radiation enviroment.

    Primers for PCR cloning were designed according to the whole genome sequence of vibrio alginolyticus published in GenBank. The outer membrane protein H(OmpH)gene of V.alginolyticus strain HY9901 was amplified by PCR and cloned into pMD18-T vector to investigate the possibility of OmpH as a candidate antigen for vaccine production. Sequence analysis revealed that OmpH gene(GenBank Number :JX855924)is 573 bp and encodes a putative protein of 190 amino acids. The predicted molecular weight(MW)of OmpH was 21.1 kD with an estimated pI of 9.02. Using SignalP 4.0 and TMHMM Server 2.0 software, and it was predicted that the OmpH protein did not contain a signal peptide or a transmembranous region. This protein had one N-glycosylation site, six phosphorylation sites, one endoplasmic reticulum targeting sequence and three microbodies C-terminal targeting signals predicted by SoftBerry-Psite software. To further analyze the evolutionary relationship among OmpH, a molecular phylogenetic tree was constructed using MEGA5.0 software. In this tree, the OmpH protein showed high genetic relationship with Vibrio parahaemolyticus and Vibrio harveyi. Using bioinformatices softwares and methods, the B-cell preponderant epitopes of OmpH were localized in the regions of 5-10、106-110、120-125、158-163 and 175-180. The three-dimensional structure of OmpH was determined using SWISS-MODEL work-space and it had a similar structure with Skp protein of Escherichia coli. These results can provide a basis for further studies on the immunogenecity of OmpH and vaccine preparation.

    To compare the transcription activity of original promoter PGCW14 with other promoters, Candidn antarctic lipase B(CALB) was displayed on the cell surface of Pichia pastoris using PGCW14, PAOX1, PGAP and PTEF1 as promoter respectively. Anchor protein was a cell wall protein named Gcw14p, which was obtained originally from P. pastoris. In shake-flask cultivation, the activity of PGCW14 was equal to that of PAOX1.Under control of PGCW14 and PAOX1, the highest lipase hydrolytic activities of recombinant yeasts reached 694.8 U/g(Dry cell weight)and 684.3 U/g(Dry cell weight)after cultivation for 48 h and 120 h, respectively. The fermentation period of recombinant yeast using PGCW14 as promoter was shortened significantly. While the highest lipase hydrolytic activities of recombinant yeasts controlled by constitutive promoter PGAP and PTEF1 reached 266.7 U/g(Dry cell weight)and 449.2 U/g(Dry cell weight)respectively after cultivation for 48 h. This means that the activity of PGCW14 was higher than that of PGAP and PTEF1. Furthermore, replacing the α-factor with signal peptide from protein Gcw14p, the lipase hydrolytic activity increased about 4%.

    We used Macropanax rosthornii soil as research subject, and water as the stress factor. The experiment was tested 36 days under the following three different conditions:A just was waterlogged;B was waterlogged with new oxygen fertilizer;C was normally watered without new oxygen fertilizer. Amplifying 16S rDNA genes of bacteria by PCR, subsequently the products of PCR were analyzed by DGGE on the sixth, twelfth, eighteenth, twenty-fourth, thirtieth and thirty-sixth day. The results indicate that at the same stage, with the prolongation of processing time, condition A and condition B’s DGGE bands similarity are reduced ;on the twelfth, eighteenth and twenty fourth day, the DGGE bands of condition B are more and brighter than condition A. The Shannon index of B is higher than A, and the difference presents the trend of “low-highlow”. The DGGE bands of B and C owns lower similarity during the same period. The diversity of different conditions presents differently during the detection time. Under the condition A, the similarity of soil bacteria diversity is generally lower at each detection time. Under the condition B, the similarity of soil bacteria diversity is higher and stable at each detection time. Under the condition C, the similarity of soil bacteria diversity is lower at each detection time. The research reveals the new oxygen fertilizer has a significant effect on waterlogged soil bacterial diversity.

    Polyphasic taxonomy was adopted to determine the taxonomic status of two soil rhizobia from southern Tibet. Two Gramnegative, aerobic, rod-shaped bacteria, designated strains CNU8561007 and CNU85000012. The morphological studies demonstrated that the two test strains had similar features. The slight features differences between CNU8561007 and CNU85000012 might be related to the fact that they were isolated from different geographic regions. According to comparison of 16S rRNA gene sequences, strains CNU8561007 and CNU85000012 were identical and their closest phylogenetic relatives were Rhizobum yanglingense, R.loessense, R.mongolense and R.gallicum. Phylogenetic analysis based on four housekeeping genes(recA, atpD, glnII, and danK)which were in broad agreement with 16S rRNA gene sequence similarities indicated that the two isolates were closely related to Rhizobum yanglingense. The DNA G + C mol% and DNA -DNA hybridization provided supporting evidence that the two test strains belongs to the Rhizobum yanglingense and the BOX-PCR fingerprint profiles demonstrating that the two isolates were not clones of one strain.

    In this paper, the methane-, butane- and alkane-oxidizing bacteria contents in oil and gas field soil was determined by the established real-time quantitative PCR(qPCR)technologies targeting the pmoA, bmoX and alkB gene respectively, and the background field soils were compared as the control. The pmoA and alkB gene copies decreased by 1-2 orders of magnitude with the sampling depth increased. The gene quantification results of DNA samples extracted by manual method indicated the pmoA and alkB gene copies in oil and gas field soils were slightly higher than in background field soils. The bmoX gene copies in gas field soils was 2.75×105copies/g, which was 0.5-1 order of magnitude higher than that in background and oil field soils. The results of DNA samples extracted by kit method showed the pmoA and alkB gene copies in oil field soils were 3.09×104 and 2.56×106 copies/g, respectively, which were higher than that of gas and background field. The bmoX gene copies in gas field soils is 1 order of magnitude higher than that of background field soils, and 0.5 order of magnitude higher than that of oil field soils. It is concluded that the established qPCR method of the three oil and gas indicating bacteria provided new detection means for microbial prospecting of oil and gas.

    Common carp(Cyprinus carpio)is one of the most important aquaculture species in China and with certain alkalisaline tolerance. In order to understand the common carp genes expression in different alkali-saline water, we studied the candidate ammonia excretion related genes :Rh(Rhesus blood group-associated glycoprotein), AQP(Aquaporin), PRL(Prolactin), CA(Carbonic Anhydrase), NKA(Na+/K+ transporting ATPase), NHE(Sodium Hydrogen Exchanger)expression at a rising carbonate alkalinity gradient in a certain pH value by quantitative PCR method. Results showed that with the rise of carbonate alkalinity value, the overall expression of these genes in gill, kidney and intestine are up-regulated compared with freshwater controls. And AQP3A, PRLRA, NHE7 are mainly expressed in gill ;PRL are mainly expressed in kidney ;RHAG, RHBG2, RHCG1 are mainly expressed in intestine under the stress of carbonate alkalinity. The changes of these genes expression in different level of carbonate alkalinity can provide insights into the mechanism of osmotic regulation for fish.

    Protein A affinity chromatography was used to purify immunoglobulin IgM from grass carp serum, and the purity and molecular weight of the product was analyzed by SDS-PAGE. Rabbit polyclonal antibodies of the purified grass carp IgM were prepared and detected by ELISA. The results showed that molecular weights of the light chain and heavy chain of the purified grass carp IgM were about 25 kD and 75 kD, respectively, and high titers of rabbit anti-grass carp IgM antiserum was obtained. Horseradish peroxidase was used to label the rabbit anti-grass carp IgM antibody. The labeled antibody was used to detect the antibody levels in serum of grass carp after immunizing by capsid protein VP4 and VP5 of grass carp hemorrhage virus isolated from Guangdong province(GCRV-GD108). The results revealed that the labeled anti-grass carp IgM antibody could be used for the rapid detection of the IgM levels in grass carp serum. In this study, method to detect IgM levels in grass carp serum was established, which would provide a convenient method of serological testing for further study of pathogen invasion mechanism, grass carp immune defense mechanism and evaluation of grass carp vaccine effectiveness.

    Loss of heterozygosity of the short arm of chromosome 12 is a frequently observed in a wide variety of haematological malignancies and solid tumours, suggesting the presence of tumour suppressor genes in this region. LOH12CR1 is one of the genes identified in 12p12. To explore the normal function of LOH1CR12, yeast two-hybrid system was used to screen proteins interacting with LOH1CR12, and the transcriptional regulator GPS2 was identified as a LOH1CR12- interacting protein. Furthermore, GPS2 was confirmed to interact with LOH1CR12 in vivo in HEK-293 cell by co-immunoprecipitation, and the co-localization of GPS2 and LOH1CR12 in nucleus was observed by immunofluorescent co-localization.

    A novel “signal-on” assay for sensitive and selective detection of Hg2+ in aqueous solution based on mercury-specific DNA and a molecular light switch complex, SYBR GREEN I, was reported in the present work. This Hg2+ specific sensor system composed of two labelfree DNA probes with five T-T mis-matches, which could form stable DNA duplexes by thymine-Hg2+-thymine(T-Hg2+-T)in the presence of Hg2+. The fluorescence of SYBR GREEN I is weak in aqueous solution, and significant fluorescence can be observed when intercalating into DNA duplexes. By monitoring Hg2+-dependent fluorescence intensity enhancement, highly sensitive and selective determination of Hg2+ has been achieved. Under the optimum conditions, the fluorescence intensity was proportional to the concentration of Hg2+ in the range of 5-100 nmol/L. A detection limit of 2 nmol/L Hg2+ was achieved. The presence of other metal ions did not interfere with the detection of Hg2+. This approach is simple and rapid, which can be used to monitor the Hg2+ concentration in drinking water.
