The TGF-β superfamily members have important roles in controlling patterning and tissue formation in both invertebrates and vertebrates. Two types of signal transducers, receptors and Smads, mediate the signaling to regulate expression of their target genes. Despite of the relatively simple signal transduction pathway, many modulators have been found to contribute to a tight regulation of this pathway in a variety of mechanisms. This article reviews the negative regulation of TGF-β signaling with focus on its roles in vertebrate development.

The development of synapses is an important question in neurobiology. We employ patchclamp technique to record MEPCs and EPCs of myoballs in Xenopus cell culture. The rate of EPC/MEPC is related with synapses maturation. Accordingly, we define the mature synapses as those whose rate of presynaptic membrane’s EPC to MEPC is more than 8. The process of maturation needs about 2-5 h after neurites contact with myoballs. We divide the development of synapses into three stages: young, developing and mature. The neurotransmitters stack gradually and increase by hundreds of times along with young synapses growing into maturity. So the process of synapses maturation should include presynaptic membrane specialization, postsynaptic membrane specialization and neurotransmitters stack.

Microarray technology has been widely used to analyze the gene expression levels by detecting fluorescence intensity in a high throughput fashion. However, since the measurement error produced from various sources in microarray experiments is heterogeneous and too large to be ignored, we propose here a measurement error model for microarray data processing, by which the standard deviation of the measurement error is demonstrated to be linearly increased with fluorescence intensity. A robust algorithm, which estimates the parameters of the measurement error model from a single microarray without replicated spots, is provided. The model and algorithm for estimating of the parameters from a given data set are tested on both the real data set and the simulated data set, and the result has been proven satisfactory. And, combining the measurement error model with traditional Z-test method, a full statistical model has been developed It can significantly improve the statistical inference for identifying differentially expressed genes.

The expression of inducible genes in plants is regulated by specific transcription factors at the transcrip-tional level. A typical transcription factor usually contains a DNA-binding domain, a transcription regulation domain, a dimerization site and a nuclear localization domain. These functional domains define the characteristic, localization and regulatory role of a transcription factor. Transcription factors recognize and bind to specific cis-acting elements or interact with other proteins, and then activate or repress the transcription of target genes by their functional domains. In recent years, elucidation on the structure and function of transcription factors has become an important subject in plant molecular biology.

Drought, high salt and cold are three different kinds of environment stresses that severely influence the growth, development and productivity of crops. They all decrease the water state of plant cells, and consequently result in the harm of plant from water deficit. Several genes encoding protein kinases and induced by drought, high salt and low temperature have been isolated from Arabidopsis. These protein kinases include receptor protein kinase (RPK), MAP kinases, ribosomal-protein kinases and transcription-regulation protein kinase. The expression features of these genes and the regulatory roles of these protein kinases in stress response and signal transduction are discussed.

Burrs (exit failure), being one of the important factors influencing the final precision of workpiece, have been widely studied. Today, with the development of manufacturing technology, the depth of cut falls into the range of nanometer or subnanometer, there may be some different disciplines dominating the burrs generation process. Molecular dynamics (MD) emthod, which is different from continuous mechanics, plays an important role in describing microscopic world. Take the example of single crystal copper, this paper carries out MD analysis micro-mechanism of burrs generation process. The results show that the burrs geometry depends on the type of workpiece (ductile or brittle). The depth of cut is decreased in the case of positive burrs generation process while the depth of cut is increased in case of negative burrs generation process. keywords burr - molecular dynamics - micro-mechanism Supported by china Postdoctor Science Foundation (Grant No. 20060390458)

The synaptic vesicle protein synaptotagminⅠ (sytⅠ) is a vesicle transmembrane protein present in synap-tic vesicles, which has been proposed as the Ca2+ sensor that regulates secretion. The C2A domain is the membrane proximal part of its cytoplasmic domain. The interaction between C2A and lipid bilayer has been considered to be essential for triggering neurotransmitter release. In the pre-sent work, the measurements of membrane surface tension and surface concentration showed that the C2A domain of sytⅠexhibited two membrane-bound states: the surface adsorption state and the membrane insertion state. The sur-face absorption state formed in a Ca2+-independent manner with lower affinity, while the membrane insertion state formed with high affinity was only found in the presence of Ca2+. Both the Ca2+-independent and Ca2+-dependent sytⅠ- membrane interactions required anionic phospholipids, such as phosphatidylserine (PS). When expressed into rat pheo-chromocytoma (PC12. cells and human embryonic kidney (HEK-293) cells, as demonstrated by immunofluorescence staining and subcellular fractionation, most of the C2A was found at the plasma membrane, even when the cells were depleted of Ca2+ by incubation with EGTA. These results suggested a new molecular mechanism of sytⅠas a Ca2+ sensor in membrane fusion. Ca2+-independent surface ad-sorption might attach sytⅠto the release site during the docking or priming step. When intracellular Ca2+ increased, sytⅠtriggered the neurotransmitter release following the Ca2+-dependent penetration into the target membrane.
