Troponin T (TnT) is one of the myofibrillar proteins that is easily degraded during postmortem aging of pork. In this study, we determined the N-terminal amino acid sequences of TnT degradation fragments produced during postmortem aging and by m-calpain hydrolysis. The N-terminal amino acid sequences of TnT fragments produced during postmortem aging were EVHEPEEKPRPKLTAP, EKPRPKLTAPKIPEG, and APKIPEGEKVDF. On the other hand, the N-terminal amino acid sequences of TnT fragments produced by the action of m-calpain were APPPPAEV, EVHEPEEK, and APK. These sequences of degradation fragments could be mapped on fast type TnT isoform 2. The peptide bonds of His37-Glu38 and Thr51-Ala52 in fTnT2 were cleaved during postmortem aging as well as by the calpain hydrolysis; therefore, calpain was concluded to have an important role in TnT degradation during postmortem aging. It was also found that the sourness-suppressing peptide APPPPAEVHEVHEEVH (Okumura et al. Biosci. Biotechnol. Biochem. 2004, 68, 1657-1662) derived from TnT degradation could be produced by the action of calpains on Glu21-Ala22 and His37-Glu38 sites. 相似文献

In this study, the plasma glucose concentrations of cows carrying a somatic cell clone fetus during late pregnancy and placental glucose transporter (GLUT) mRNA levels at parturition were examined. Parturition was induced using dexamethasone, prostaglandin F(2α) and estriol in cows bearing a clone (Clone) or a fetus fertilized in vivo as a control (DEX). Plasma glucose concentrations were measured in the cows (days 257 and 271 of pregnancy and at parturition) and newborn calves. Cotyledon and caruncle tissues removed just after parturition were used for mRNA extraction. Expression of mRNA was also analyzed in control cows that were induced to undergo parturition without dexamethasone (PG) or that spontaneously delivered (SP). The glucose concentrations of the Clone group were significantly low at all points examined, but those of the calves were normal. The increase in the maternal glucose concentration from day 257 to parturition was significantly lower in the Clone group. Glucose concentrations were negatively correlated with birth weight for clones (day 257; r=-0.584, day 271; r=-0.286, parturition; r=-0.549). There was no difference in mRNA levels in the cotyledons among the animals examined. In the caruncles, the Clone and PG groups showed significantly higher GLUT1 and GLUT3 mRNA levels than the SP group, and the GLUT3 mRNA level was significantly higher in the Clone group than in the DEX group. The glucocorticoid receptor α mRNA level was significantly lower in the SP group than in the DEX group. Although spontaneous parturition and administration of dexamethasone suppressed the placental GLUT mRNA levels, the action was not observed in clone pregnancy. These results raise the possibility of facilitation of glucose transportation through the placenta to meet increased nutritional requirements of overgrown clone fetuses. 相似文献

Plant growth requires mineral nutrients from soil environment. It is important for plant to develop its root to import mineral nutrient from environment. Both inorganic nitrogen source and plant hormone auxin influence the root system architecture (RSA). Previous study indicated that polar auxin transport is partly involved in ammonium-inhibition of primary root in an Arabidopsis ecotype, Columbia 0 (Col-0); however, the effect of auxin in other ecotypes remains unclear. The purpose of this study is to describe and examine the effect of TIBA, an inhibitor for the auxin polar transport, in ammonium supply-dependent changes of root development. Two Arabidopsis ecotypes, Col-0 and Landsberg erecta 2 (Ler-2), were used due to their different response to ammonium supply. The changes of the RSA in response to ammonium supply on vertical agar medium containing three levels of TIBA and four levels of ammonium were determined in two ecotypes. The primary root length of Ler-2 was markedly shortened by increasing ammonium concentration in the medium, while that of Col-0 was relatively insensitive to ammonium. Conversely, the lateral root length of Ler-2 was increased by ammonium supply. Both primary and lateral root of Col-0 were more sensitive to TIBA than those of Ler-2. ANOVA indicated the significant interaction of TIBA and ammonium in Col-0; however, no interaction in Ler-2. These results suggested the genetic diversity in the interactive effect of auxin and ammonium. 相似文献

A simplified method has been developed for designing and calculating sprinkling systems by cutting lines across laterals at
points next to the first sprinkler with a view to divide the system into two separate parts; field and basic. Equations of
lateral pressure heads were used to express the relationship between inlet pressure head and velocity of the flow pumped to
laterals on the field part. The above equations were then used to set up calculating conditions for the Basic part by unsteady
flow method in order to define head and discharge at downstream end of the pipe in the Basic part. The forward step method
was used for determining distributions of the pressure head and the emitter discharge along each lateral. A calculating schema
on computer has been carried out in order to apply the method to any sprinkling system. The procedure of analysis and calculation
showed that this method is generally accurate, simple and rapid. 相似文献

A one-month male Greyhound dog presented with a swinging gait of the hindlimbs, and later developed muscular atrophy of the femoral region and hyperextension of hindlimbs. The dog had positive serum IFAT titers to Neospora caninum, but a negative titer in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). N. caninum-specific DNA was amplified from the CSF using a semi-nested polymerase chain reaction assay. Clusters of protozoa in biopsied muscle fibers were subsequently confirmed as N. caninum tachyzoites by immunohistochemical examination. Early recognition and treatment are necessary for effective recovery of clinical canine neosporosis, but antemortem diagnosis is difficult. We suggest that the detection of parasite deoxyribonucleic acid in the CSF is a useful antemortem diagnostic method in facilitating treatment of this disease. 相似文献

This study has focused on solute diffusing into cell walls in solution-impregnated wood under conditioning, process of evaporating solvent. The amount of the diffusion is known to be determined by the solute diffusivity and the solute-concentration difference between cell walls and cell cavities. Purpose of this paper was to clarify the effect of temperature only on the solute diffusivity that is directionally related to the thermal vibration of the solute molecule. The cross-cut block of hinoki (Chamaecyparis obtusa), polyethylene glycol (PEG1540), and water was employed as wood sample, solute, and solvent, respectively. The sample impregnated with a 20 mass% solution was conditioned at 20, 35, or 50 °C to finish the solute diffusion evaluated using the dimension of the sample that was conditioned followed by drying in a vacuum. To unify the solute-concentration difference, for all temperatures, the equilibrium moisture content was unified and the solvent-evaporation rate was controlled in three ways during conditioning. The solute diffusivity was higher in order of 35, 50, and 20 °C, which was evaluated by the solute diffusion at the same evaporation rate. It is clarified that the diffusivity increases with increasing the dimension of cell walls rather than with increasing the thermal vibration of solute molecule. 相似文献

Djungarian (Phodopus sungorus) and Chinese (Cricetulus griseus) hamster IFN-gamma genes were cloned and sequenced. The Djungarian and Chinese hamster genes were both 525bp nucleotides, resulting in 174 amino acids in full length with a predicted molecular weight (MW) of 19,560 dal and 19,775 dal, respectively. The first 23 amino terminal amino acids consisted of a hydrophobic signal sequence when cleavaged, which would result in a mature 151 amino acid polypeptide with a predicted MW of 17,115 dal in the Djungarian hamster IFN-gamma and 17,255 dal in the Chinese hamster one. 相似文献

The purpose of this study was to understand the mechanisms of persistent infection with Bartonella henselae in cats. Blood samples were collected from three naturally infected cats for 24 months. These cats were confirmed to be persistently infected with B. henselae by serological and bacteriological examination. Relapsing bacteremia was found in all three cats with intervals of 3-19 months. Following the peaks of bacteremia, increases of specific antibody titer were observed in these cats. To examine the genetic differences among the isolates derived from the first and following bacteremia, the genome DNA patterns of the restriction enzyme fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) of the isolates were examined by pulsed field gel electrophoresis. The isolates derived from the first bacteremia showed an identical RFLP pattern in each of the three cats. The isolates derived from the following peaks, however, showed 1-3 of different RFLP patterns in these cats. Furthermore, the isolates showing different RFLP patterns from those of the first bacteremia were also detected at the following bacteremic peaks in all three cats examined. The 16S ribosomal RNA (rRNA) gene type of all isolates was found to be 16S rRNA type I. The emergence of genetically distinct organisms at various peaks of bacteremia may contribute to the establishment of persistent infection in the naturally infected cats. 相似文献
