The oxidation-reduction properties,relative to the Fe(Ⅲ)/Fe(Ⅱ) conversion,of horseradish peroxidase(HRP)in surfactant films at edge-plane pyrolytic graphite(EPG)electrode have been investigated by using direct electrochemical methods.Cyclic voltammograms for DDAB/HRP/CME(chemically modified eelctrode),DMPC/HRP/CME,DHP/HRP/CME at 2V/s in phosnhate buffer solution (pH 7.O) show one pair of reversible,reproducible redox peaks. The redox potentials (E1/2) in DDAB/HRP/CME,DMPC/HRP/CME and DHP/HRP/CME are-0.212V,-0.330V,-0.381V respectively. Experimental result indicated that the membranes,especially the positively charged one,providing special film environment,might interfere in the protein-electrode electron transfer process. The electron transfer processes of HRP were described in the absence and in the presence of hydrogen peroxide.There are good linear relationships between the currents and the H2 O2 concentration using all the three CMEs.The results obtained are of potential value for basic and applied bioelectrochemistry and represent an opportunity to build the third generation of biosensors.

Objective To verify the genes screened by the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) chip of cell cycle. Methods The colon cancer cells SW480 were randomized into two groups, the test group (with gastrin stimulation) and con-trol group (without gastrin stimulation). The method of Western blot was used to detect the expression of calcylin binding pro-tein/Siah-1 interacting protein (Cacybp/SIP) before and after gastrin stimulation. The differential expression genes, cyclin de-pendent kinase 8 (CDK8) and cyclin dependent kinase subunit (CKS2), were verified by using real-time quantitative PCR (qRT-PCR). Results It was found that before the stimulation, CacyBP/SIP was located and expressed in cytoplasm, and then in both cytoplasm and nucleus after gastrin stimulation. The qRT-PCR results of CDK8 and CKS2 genes were consis-tent with those of microarray detection. The expressions of CDK8 and CKS2 were up-regulated (P < 0.05). Conclusion The stimulation of human gastrin can lead to the nuclear translocation of CacyBP/SIP. The results of microarray are reliable, and the differentially expressed genes screened through gene chip deserve further study.
