3.Nonconserved hinge in Baeyer-Villiger monooxygenase affects catalytic activity and stereoselectivity.
Chinese Journal of Biotechnology 2015;31(3):361-374
Baeyer-Villiger monooxygenases (BVMOs) are important biocatalysts to synthesize a series of valuable esters and lactones. Based on protein sequence alignment and crystal structure analysis, a nonconserved hinge which linked NADPH domain and FAD domain was speculated to play an important role in substrate recognition and catalytic oxidation process. Cyclohexanone monooxygenase (CHMO) was selected as a model. Mutants obtained by homologous replacement of the whole hinge almost completely lost its original catalytic activity, demonstrating that the overall hinge structure was of great importance. Some significant sites were identified to greatly affect the catalytic activity and stereoselectivity by alanine scanning mutagenesis, accompanied by enzyme activity assessments and chiral kinetic resolutions. Altering K153 decreased the activity of the enzyme but enhanced the stereoselectivity. Changing L143 site reduced stereoselectivity but had little effect on enzyme activity. Mutation at L144 site dramatically weakened both activity and stereoselectivity. Subsequently, these corresponding sites in phenylacetone monooxygenase were also illustrated to follow a similar rule, revealing a universal importance of these sites in the BVMO family. These results expanded our understanding of the structure-activity relationship of these enzymes and provided more proofs for future directed evolution of BVMOs.

4.Clinical efficacy of external counterpulsation in the treatment of non-proliferative diabetic retinopathy
Chinese Journal of Ocular Fundus Diseases 2016;32(2):144-148
Objective To observe the clinical efficacy of enhanced external counterpulsation (ECP) in the treatment of non-proliferative diabetic retinopathy (NPDR).Methods It was a case-control study.83 patients (166 eyes) of NPDR were randomly divided into ECP treatment group (ECP group) and conventional therapy group (drug group) by date of visit odd and even number,each with 42 patients of 84 eyes and 41 patients of 82 eyes respectively.The blood glucose,glycated hemoglobin (HbAlc),low-density lipoprotein (LDL-C),corrected visual acuity,stages of diabetic retinopathy (DR) and hemodynamic index such as peak systolic velocity (PSV),diastolic velocity (EDV),resistance index (RI) of ophthalmic artery (OA) and central retinal artery (CRA) were not statistically different between these two groups (P> 0.05).All patients were regularly educated for lifestyle management and diabetes mellitus.The following parameters were controlled by drugs including blood glucose<8.0 mmol/L,HbA1c<7.5 %,blood pressure <140/90 mmHg (1 mmHg=0.133 kPa) and LDL-C<3.1 mmol/L.The ECP group received both ECP and medical treatments.The ECP parameters were gasbag pressure 0.35-0.45 kg/cm2,40 min/each time,1 time/d.35 days of ECP was one course,one course each year for 3 years.The treatment effectiveness was determined at the end of follow-up after 3 years of treatment.The blood glucose,HbA1c,blood pressure,LDL-C,visual acuity,fundus changes and hemodynamic index of OA and CRA before and after treatment were comparatively analyzed.Improved or stable visual acuity and fundus condition was judged as effective treatment.Results At latest follow up,the differences of blood glucose,HbA1c,blood pressure and LDL-C were not statistically significant (P>0.05).Compared to drug group,the PSV and EDV of OA and CRA were increased,but RI of OA and CRA was decreased in ECP group (P<0.05).The vision effective ratio was 91.67% and 30.49% in ECP group and drug group respectively with a significant different (x2 =65.56,P<0.05).The fundus effective ratio was 92.86% and 48.78% in ECP group and drug group respectively with a significant different (x2 =43.38,P< 0.05).During follow-up,1 eye (1.19%) progressed to proliferative DR (PDR) in ECP group,while 6 eyes (7.32%) progressed to PDR in drug group.The difference of PDR incidence rate between two groups was significant (x2 =3.87,P< 0.05).During the ECP treatment,there were 2 patients with small blisters in the skin of lower limb and cured finally.There were no other treatment-related complications.Conclusion ECP in the treatment for NPDR can improve PSV and EDV,reduce RI of OA and CRA;improve vision and fundus state,reduce the incidence of PDR.

Objective To explore the preference of emotional memory in different cognitive style of undergraduates.Methods A 2 cognitive style (field independent style / field dependent style) * 3 facial expressions (positive/neutral/negative faces) mixed designs were adopted to compare the reaction time,which in the condition of stimuli presentation time 500 ms in field independent and dependent participants (n =25,respectively).E-Prime program was used to present the stimulus and to record the reaction time and accuracy to stimuli of all subjects.Repeated Measurement ANOVA was used in the research,facial expressions (positive/neutral/negative faces) as the within group factor,and groups (stress/non stress) as between group factor.Both the main effect of each variable and the interaction effect of variables were tested.Results There were a significant difference of response time and accuracy between the field independent and field dependent college students.It was shown by repeated measurement A NOVA that the main effect(F(2,47) =4.321,P< 0.05)in facial expressions properties and the interaction effect(F(2.47) =3.299,P< 0.05)between groups and facial expressions properties were found.Further analysis showed that the reaction time to detect stimulus of positive((610.71 ± 11.26)ms)and neutral ((606.24 ± 18.27) ms) facial expression was shorter than negative ((653.17 ± 20.91) ms) faces for field independent participants (P<0.05).Interestingly,for field dependent group,the neutral faces ((675.67 ± 21.01) ms)were faster than others (P < 0.05).Conclusion Field independent students had significant advantages over field dependent students in emotional memory.

Objective To explore the best position in bed for the patients who have under the operation of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and then used heparin sodium within 24 hours. Methods The 159 patients were divided into two groups randomly:the experimental group and the control group. After the PCI, the subjects in these two groups will rest in bed by two ways. Using McGill′s present Pain Index to evaluate hematoma, using the PPI to evaluate the pain of back, using the STAI to evaluate the condition of anxiety, write the number of patient who have anuresises. Results There are no significant difference between two groups in wound blooding, while the difference of back pain, anxiety and the anuresises are significant between two groups. Conclusion The position of half-lie is safe and comfortable for the patients who have under the operation of PCI.
