ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:To determine the content of 17 amino acid in sarcocarp of northeast Empetrum nigrum simultaneous-ly. METHODS:HPLC-ELSD method was adopted. The determination was performed on Waters Symmetry C18 column with mobile phase consisted of 5.0 mmol/L heptafluorobutyric acid solution(containing 0.7% trifluoroacetic acid)-acetonitrile(gradient elution) at the flow rate of 2.0 L/min,the column temperature was 37 ℃,the drift tube temperature was set at 60 ℃. RESULTS:The line-ar ranges of glycine,serine,aminosuccinic acid,aminopropionic acid,threonine,glutamic acid,cystinol,diaminocaproic acid, histidine,arginine,proline,valine,methionine,oxyphenylaminopropionic acid,isoleucine,aminocaproic acid,phenylalanine were 0.0059-0.1877,0.0082-0.2628,0.0104-0.3328,0.0070-0.2227,0.0093-0.2978,0.0115-0.3678,0.0094-0.3004,0.0114-0.3655,0.0121-0.3880,0.0136-0.4355,0.0090-0.2878,0.0092-0.2930,0.0117-0.3730,0.0142-0.4530,0.0103-0.3280, 0.0103-0.3280 and 0.0129-0.4130 mg/mL(all r>0.9990). RSDs of precision,stability and repeatability tests were not all less than 2.0%. Recoveries were 98.0%-101.2%(RSD<2.0%,n=6). CONCLUSIONS:This method is simple,precision,stable and repeatable,and can be used for simultaneous determination of 17 amino acid in sarcocarp of northeast E. nigrum.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To obtain AP2/ERF genes from Brassica oleracea by using in silico cloning. Methods: AP2/ERF genes were cloned by retnieving the EST database and using the bioinformatics software with the Arabidopsis thaliana AP2/ERF as a querying probe. Results:Two AP2/ERF family transcriptional regulators (BoAP2/ERF1 and BoAP2/ERF2) were isolated from Brassica olera-cea by the in silico cloning method. Some characters of AP2/ERF protein were analyzed and predicted by the tools of bioinformatics in the following aspects including the composition of amino acid sequence, hydrophilicity and hydrophobicity, subcellular localization, secondary and tertiary structure of protein and function. Conclusion:Bioinformatical analysis shows BoAP2/ERF1 and BoAP2/ERF2 gene encode 40. 85kDa and 39. 44kDa protein with 371 and 352 amino acids. The domain is predicted to locate on nucleus. Sequence analysis indicates the protein may be involved in signaling transducer and stressing response roles in plantbiotic stresses.
