OBJECTIVE:To clone,prokaryotic express and characterize the TEM-type ?-lactamase produced by Enterobacter cloacae clinical isolate EC002. METHODS: The drug susceptibility of Enterobacter cloacae clinical isolate EC002 was detected by agar double dilution,double disk screening and confirmatory test were employed to detect the ESBLs. The isoelectric point (pI) of enzyme was detected by isoelectric focusing electrophoresis (IEF),the genes were coded by PCR amplification enzyme,and the prokaryotic expression and phenotype of the TEM-type ?-lactamase were detected. RESULTS: Enterobacter cloacae EC002 were resistant to most of the ?-lactamases. Positive results were noted for the phenotype identification and plasmid conjugation test. IEF showed that Enterobacter cloacae EC002 produced two ?-lactamases with pI value at 8.7 and 5.4 respectively,which were confirmed to be CTX-M-22 and a new TEM-subtype ?-lactamase by DNA sequencing,and the phenotype of the expressed enzyme of the cloned strains was non-ESBLs. The TEM-type ?-lactamase was named as TEM-141 by GenBank. CONCLUSION: The TEM-141 produced by Enterobacter cloacae EC002 was a new type of plasmid-mediated broad-spectrum ?-lactamase.

Receptors play a crucial role in determining the host specificity and tissue tropism of virus. Foot-and-mouth disease virus(FMDV)has been showed to use four integrins, ?v?1, ?v?3, ?v?6 and ?v?8 as receptors to initiate infection and ?v?6 functions as the major receptor.The cDNA encoding bactrian camel integrin ?6 from the lung tissue was cloned and sequenced. The 2367bp cDNA of bactrian camel integrin ?6 encodes a polypeptide of 788 amino acids consisting of a 26-residue putative signal peptide, a 681-residue ectodomain with 8 potential N-linked glycosylation sites and 58 cysteine residues, a 29-residue transmembrane domain, and a 52-residue cytoplasmic domain with a NPLY motif and 1 potential N-linked glycosylation site. The nucleotide sequence similarity of integrin ?6 between bactrian camel and cattle, pig, sheep, human, mouse, Norway rat is 91.1%、91.8%、90.6%、90.5%、83.7%、84.1%, and the amino acid sequence similarity is 94.3%、93.4%、93.4%、93.7%、88.7%、88.6%, respectively. The bactrian camel ?6 gene exhibited the higher sequence homology with the ?6 gene of cattle, pig and sheep, indicating their close genetic relationships. It is possible that host tropism of FMDV may related to divergence in ?6 receptors among different species.

OBJECTIVETo study the changes of urine metabolites in hypertension patients of ascendant hyperactivity of Gan yang syndrome (AHGYS), and to explore its essence in hypertension patients.
METHODSTen typical hypertension patients of AHGYS were recruited as the patient group, and the other twelve healthy volunteers were recruited as the normal group. The metabolite profiling in the urine were collected using by high performance liquid chromatography coupled with time of flight mass spectrometry (HPLC-TOFMS). The principal component analysis (PCA) and partial least-square discriminant analysis (PLS-DA) were analyzed using SIMCA-P Software. The differential metabolites in the urine were found out and identified. The possible relevant metabolic pathways were explained.
RESULTSThe data from the analysis by PCA in the urine samples of the patient group and the normal group showed, two sets of data could be obviously classified in the score plot. Compared with the normal group, significant changes happened to the body metabolism in the patient group. The metabolites relevant to hypertension patients of AHGYS were determined using the PLS-DA. Fifteen compounds of the structure and metabolic pathways had been confirmed through inquiring KEGG Database, mainly including amino acids, free fatty acids, sphingosine, and so on.
CONCLUSIONSThe hypertension patients of AHGYS were studied using HPLC-TOFMS combined with pattern recognition, thus finding out small molecular metabolic markers from the microscopic field, which was advantageous in probing the biological nature of Chinese medicine syndromes.
