Aim: To characterize enzymatic activity of severe acute respiratory syndrome(SARS) coronavirus (CoV) 3C-like protease (3CLpro) and its four site-directed mutants. Methods: Based on the fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET)principle using 5-[(2’-aminoethyl)-amino] naphthelenesulfonic acid (EDANS) and 4-[[4-(dimethylamino) phenyl] azo] benzoic acid (Dabcyl) as the energy transfer pair, one fluorogenic substrate was designed for the evaluation of SARS-CoV 3CLpro proteolytic activity. Results: The kinetic parameters of the fluorogenic substrate have been determined as Km=404 μmol.L-1, kcat=1.08 min-1, and kcat/Km=2.7 gered activity switches, and site-directed mutagenesis analysis of SARS-CoV 3CLpro revealed that substitutions of His41, Cys145, and His163 resulted in complete loss of enzymatic activity, while replacement of Met162 with Ala caused strongly increased activity. Conclusion: This present work has provided valuable information for understanding the catalytic mechanism of SARS-CoV 3CLpro. This FRET-based assay might supply an ideal approach for the exploration SARSCoV 3CLpro putative inhibitors.

水稻是重要的粮食作物之一。随着人民生活水平和国民需求的日益增长，人们对稻米品质提出了更高的要求，高产优质已成为作物育种的重要目标之一。稻米直链淀粉含量、胶稠度、糊化温度等蒸煮品质性状以及蛋白质含量等营养品质性状属于一些复杂的数量性状。影响稻米品质数量性状表现的遗传效应很复杂，控制品质性状表现的基因可以在三倍体胚乳核基因组中表达、也可以在二倍体母体植株核基因组中表达，或者同时在胚乳和母体植株核基因组
