The bacterium Streptomyces peucetius produces doxorubicin and daunorubicin,and the two widely used anticancer antibiotics.Two open reading frames,drrA and drrB,were proposed to encode for an ABC (ATP-binding cassette) type of permease that carries out export of the antibiotic ABC (ATP binding cassette)-type transporter for the exportation of these two antibiotics.In this paper,the structure,expression and interaction of DrrA and DrrB protein and the research progress of the assembly and multi drug efflux function of DrrAB are briefly reviewed.

Objective To analyze the thin-section CT features of fissure-attached nodules in asymptomatic patients.Methods The baseline and follow-up CT images of 120 asymptomatic patients with fissure-attached nodules were retrospectively analyzed.The thin-section CT findings include size,shape,density,interface,and the relationship with pulmonary fissure.Results There were 1 67 fissure-attached nodules of the 120 patients.The mean length of nodules was 5.46 mm±2.276 mm (2 - 1 5 mm).104(104/1 67,61.1%)nodules were less than 5 mm in length.1 63 (1 63/1 67,97.6%)nodules were typical and 4 (4/1 67,2.4%)nodules were atypical.All these nodules manifested as homogenous,solid,smooth interface,and widely adjacent to the fissure on CT ima-ges.Among those nodules,1 64(1 64/1 67,98.2%)nodules were triangular(88/1 67,52.7%)or oval(76/1 67,45.5%).126(126/1 67, 75.4%)nodules were abutting the major fissure.The angle between nodule and fissure was obtuse in 1 64(1 64/1 67,98.2%)fissure-attached nodules.During follow-up,4(4/1 67,2.4%)nodules increased in size and the corresponding volume doubling time (VDT) range was 863-4 228 days.However,no obvious malignant signs were found.Conclusion The thin-section CT images of fissure-attached nodules in asymptomatic patients showed the benign characteristics,most of which less than 5 mm and demonstrated trian-gle or oval,smooth interface and homogenous solid density.

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.

Objective To investigate the diagnostic value of multiplanar reformation (MPR)reconstruction for the detection of traumatic diaphragmatic rupture (TDR) in multi-slice CT examination.Methods Thirty six cases with thoracoabdominal trauma, including 21 cases with and 15 cases without TDR confirmed by surgery, received multi-slice CT examination. They were enrolled in this study. Three experienced radiologists retrospectively analyzed the axial and MPR images. The diagnostic criteria for TDR included abnormally elevated hemidiaphragm, diaphragmatic discontinuity, the "collar sign" or "dependent viscera "sign. Referenced to surgical results, the sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, negative predictive value and accuracy of axial and MPR images in detection of TDR were calculated. The McNemar was used to investigate the differences between axial and MPR images in the detection of diaphragmatic discontinuity and "collar sign", and the differences between axial and MPR images of these two signs in TDR diagnosis. Results The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, negative predictive value and accuracy of axial images in detection of TDR were 71% ( 15/21 ), 80% ( 12/15 ), 83% ( 15/18 ),67% ( 12/18 ) and 75% ( 27/36 ), respectively; of MPR images, they were 86% ( 18/21 ), 93%(14/15), 95% ( 18/19 ), 82% ( 14/17 ) and 89% ( 32/36), respectively. By axial images, twelve diaphragmatic defects or interrupts were identified in nine cases, and "collar sign" was identified in six cases. By MPR, 20 diaphragmatic defects or interrupts were identified in 15 cases ( P = 0.125 ), and "collar sign" was identified in 14 cases (P =0.021 ). The sensitivity and specificity of diaphragmatic defects or interrupts for TDR diagnosis in axial images were 43% (9/21) and 80% ( 12/15 ), respectively;in MPRimages, they were71% (15/21) (P=0.125)and93% (14/15) (P=0.500), respectively.The sensitivity and specificity of "collar sign" for TDR diagnosis in axial images were 29% (6/21) and 100% ( 15/15), respectively; in MPR images, they were 67% ( 14/21 ) (P =0. 021 ) and 100% (15/15)( P = 1.000), respectively. Conclusions MSCT presented good sensitivity, specificity and accuracy for the diagnosis of TDR. MPR images were useful supplements for axial images in TDR diagnosis which improved the diagnosis.
