In the present study, we identified and characterized the full-length Dna J c DNA sequence from expressed sequence tags of Pyropia yezoensis( Py Dna J) via rapid identification of c DNA ends. This c DNA encoded a protein of 429 amino acids, which shared high sequence similarity with other identified Dna J proteins, such as a heat shock protein 40/Dna J from Pyropia haitanensis. The relative m RNA expression level of Py Dna J was investigated using real-time PCR to determine its specific expression during the algal life cycle and during desiccation. The relative m RNA expression level in sporophytes was higher than that in gametophytes and significantly increased during the whole desiccation process. These results indicate that Py Dna J is an authentic member of the Dna J family in plants and red algae and might play a pivotal role in mitigating damage to P. yezoensis during desiccation.展开更多

Gels with different drying control chemical additives(DCCAs) and polyvinylpyrrolidone(PVP) as spinning assistant were dried at several temperatures. The influences of temperature, DCCAs and PVP in the drying process were investigated. N,N-dimethylformamide(DMF) was the optimum DCCA at 70℃ in the drying process. PVP decreased the solvent volatilization speed and prevented gel crack to a certain extent. FTIR results revealed that free water, ethanol, and isopropanol were completely removed by the drying procedure.展开更多
