Abstract
Overuse of sulfonamides in aquaculture and agriculture leads to residual drugs that cause serious pollution of the environment. However, the residues of sulfonamides in the environment are not unique, and the existing microbial degradation technology has a relatively low degradation rate of sulfonamides. Therefore, in this study, a Pseudomonas stutzeri strain (DLY-21) with the ability to degrade four common SAs was screened and isolated from aerobic compost. Under optimal conditions, the DLY-21 strain degraded four sulfonamides simultaneously within 48 h, and the degradation rates were all over 90%, with the average degradation rates of SAs being sulfoxide (SDM) ≈ sulfachloropyridazine (SCP) > sulfa quinoxaline (SQ) > sulfadiazine (SQ). In addition, the main compounds of the strain DLY-21-degrading SAs were identified by LC-MS analysis. On this basis, four detailed reaction pathways for SA degradation were deduced. This is the first report of the use of a P. stutzeri strain to degrade four sulfonamide antibiotics (SQ, SDM, SCP, and SM1), which can improve the removal efficiency of sulfonamide antibiotic pollutants and thus ameliorate environmental pollution. The results showed that DLY-21 had a good degradation effect on four SAs (SQ, SDM, SCP, and SM1).

Abstract
DNA methylation has been identified as one of the important causes of tumorigenesis, so it is important to develop some advanced methods for detecting and quantifying DNA methylation. In this study, a label-free and enzyme-free one-step rapid colorimetric detection of DNA methylation based on unmodified Au nanoparticles(Au NPs)has been proposed. This method can quickly, efficiently, economically and easily colorimetric detect methylated DNA only by the color change of unmodified Au NPs solution without the covalent modification of Au NPs in advance or complicated instruments for implementation with practical limitations or expensive biological enzymes or traditional organic dyes during the reaction. The strategy employed the difference in electrostatic attraction of single-stranded DNA and double-stranded DNA against salt-induced aggregation of Au NPs. The method has a DNA methylated detection limit of 8.47 nM and it is distinctly visible to detect methylated DNA with the naked eye as low as 20 nM. Furthermore, the strategy has an ability to detect methylated DNA in the presence of abundant unmethylated DNA with the detection limit of 0.13% and as low as 1% methylated DNA can be distinguished in heterogeneous samples with the naked eye. Also, the stratagem provides a convenient and rapid platform for methylated DNA detection of human serum samples in one step, which displays a huge potential for clinical diagnosis and treatment of oncological diseases.

Abstract
The hypermethylated tumor suppressor gene promoters are widely recognized as promising markers for cancer screening and ideal targets for cancer therapy, however, a major obstacle in their clinical study is highly sensitive screening. To address this limitation, we developed a novel bisulfite-microfluidic temperature gradient capillary electrophoresis (bisulfite-μTGCE) platform for gene methylation analysis by combining bisulfite treatment and slantwise radiative heating system-based μTGCE. Bisulfite-treated genomic DNA (gDNA) was amplified with universal primers for both methylated and unmethylated sequences, and introduced into glass microfluidic chip to perform electrophorectic separation under a continuous temperature gradient based on the formation of heteroduplexes. Eight CDKN2A promoter model fragments with different number and location of methylation sites were prepared and successfully analyzed according to their electrophoretic peak patterns, with high stability, picoliter-scale sample consumption, and significantly increased detection speed. The bisulfite-μTGCE could detect methylated gDNA with a detection limit of 7.5pg, and could distinguish as low as 0.1% methylation level in CDKN2A in an unmethylated background. Detection of seven colorectal cancer (CRC) cell lines with known and unknown methylation statuses of CDKN2A promoter and 20 tumor tissues derived from CRC patients demonstrated the capability of detecting hypermethylation in real-world samples. The wider adaptation of this platform was further supported by the detection of the CDKN2A and MLH1 promoters' methylation statuses in combination. This highly sensitive, fast, and low-consumption platform for methylation detection shows great potential for future clinical applications.

Abstract
An assay method for alpha-hemoglobin-stabilizing protein (AHSP) gene was established based on denaturing high performance liquid chromatography (DHPLC). The AHSP gene sequences are divided into six fragments. Because of one or two common single nucleotide polymorphism (SNPs) in the first, second, fourth and sixth fragments, all samples should be analyzed individually when the fragments were detected. The third and fifth fragments were detected by DHPLC technique combined with DNA pooling for no common SNP in the fragments. The six common SNPs in AHSP gene can be genotyped accurately by the established method. After analyzing AHSP gene of 40 samples by DHPLC detection and gene sequencing, it was found that the results of the two methods were completely consistent. After AHSP gene of 365 samples being analyzed by DHPLC, two rare SNPs (11,810 G > A and 12,802 C > T)were found. Two missense mutations (AHSP D29V and AHSP V56G) were also found. AHSP D29V mutation is a novel mutation. AHSP V56G is a rare mutation. It demonstrated that this method is suitable for the detection of alpha-hemoglobin-stabilizing protein gene.

Abstract
The sarco/endoplasmatic reticulum calcium-ATPase (SERCA) translocates Ca(2+) from cytosol to the lumen of the ER and thus regulates Ca(2+) homeostasis, perturbations of which have been suggested to contribute to cancer. We have previously detected an increased number of alterations in the ATP2A2 gene in various cancer types and in the ATP2A3 gene in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma. Here, we further analyzed the ATP2A3 gene in colon, lung, and CNS cancers. We identified a statistically significant increase of alterations in each (colon cancer, p=0.0052, lung cancer, p=0.0026, CNS tumors, p=0.0045) cancer type, and all 3 types together (p=0.0016). Epigenetic study of the ATP2A3 gene indicated an unchanged methylation status, whereas expression of the ATP2A3 gene was normal for exon 14 mutations and reduced in connection with a nucleotide change in intron VI in all studied cancer types. Identification of a significant number of alterations in cancer patients suggests that ATP2A3 is involved in increased cancer susceptibility in humans. The mostly normal expression and methylation status of the ATP2A3 gene, as well as the absence of somatic alterations, further suggest that the ATP2A3 gene may not act as a classical tumor suppressor gene, but rather haplo-insufficiency of this gene may be enough to change the cell and tissue environment in such a way to predispose to cancer development.

Abstract
Prader-Willi syndrome (PWS) and Angelman syndrome (AS) are neurodevelopmental disorders caused by loss of expression of imprinted genes from the 15q11-q13 region. They arise from similar defects in the region but differ in parent of origin. There are two recognized typical 15q11-q13 deletions depending on size and several diagnostic assays are available but each has limitations. We evaluated the usefulness of a methylation-specific multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification (MLPA) kit consisting of 43 probes to detect copy number changes and methylation status in the region. We used the MLPA kit to genotype 82 subjects with chromosome 15 abnormalities (62 PWS, 10 AS and 10 individuals with other chromosome 15 abnormalities) and 13 with normal cytogenetic findings. We developed an algorithm for MLPA probe analysis which correctly identified methylation abnormalities associated with PWS and AS and accurately determined copy number in previously assigned genetic subtypes including microdeletions of the imprinting center. Furthermore, MLPA analysis identified copy number changes in those with distal 15q deletions and ring 15s. MLPA is a relatively simple, cost-effective technique found to be useful and accurate for methylation status, copy number and analysis of genetic subtype in PWS and AS, as well as other chromosome 15 abnormalities.

Abstract
Inactivation of p16 by methylation of CpG islands is a frequent early event in gastric carcinogenesis. The positive relationship between p16 methylation and the clinical characteristics of gastric carcinomas (GC) has not been reported to date. In the present study, a DHPLC assay to quantify p16 methylation was established (detection limit by fluorescence detector: 1:255 (Methlyated vs Unmethylated)). The proportion of methylated p16 in the representative samples was confirmed and standardized by clone sequencing. Then, the DHPLC and two regular methylation-specific PCR (MSP) assays were used to detect p16 methylation in 82 paired, resected GCs and their adjacent normal tissues. Results showed that the average proportion of methylated p16 in GCs was significantly higher than that in their adjacent samples (12.90 vs 0.63%; t-test P=0.005). A much higher proportion of methylated p16 was detected in GCs with metastases (local or distant) than without metastases (14.76 vs 2.61%; t-test P=0.014). A proportional relationship was observed between clinical stages and positive rates of p16 methylation in GCs and/or adjacent tissues: 27.3, 37.5, and 58.8% (by DHPLC) for stage-I, -II, -III-IV of GCs, respectively (two-sided Fisher's exact test P=0.016). To confirm the data obtained by DHPLC, two MSP primer sets (p16-M and p16-M2) were also used to analyze p16 methylation in the same set of samples simultaneously. Data of MSP assay using the primer set p16-M2, but not p16-M, correlated with that of DHPLC. These results imply that the primer set p16-M2 might be more suitable than p16-M to detect p16 methylation in gastric tissues. In conclusion, the present data indicates that p16 methylation correlates with progression of GCs significantly.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Approximately 99% of Prader-Willi syndrome (PWS) and 80% of Angelman syndrome (AS) cases have deletions at a common region in chromosome 15q11.2-q13, uniparental disomy for chromosome 15 (UPD15), or imprinting center defects affecting gene expression in this region. The resulting clinical phenotype (PWS or AS) in each class of genomic abnormalities depends on the parent of origin. Both disorders are characterized at the molecular level by abnormal methylation of imprinted regions at 15q11.2-q13. Other rare chromosome 15 rearrangements and a few smaller atypical deletions associated with abnormal methylation patterns also have symptoms overlapping with either PWS or AS. METHODS We designed a methylation-specific melting analysis (MS-MA) method for a rapid screening of PWS/AS and evaluated methylation-specific multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification (MS-MLPA) for diagnosis of PWS/AS associated with deletions, UPD15, or rare duplications. Forty-nine previously genotyped samples were tested by MS-MA. We also tested 26 MS-MA genotyped samples and 1 additional sample with rare duplication of chromosome region 15q11-q12. RESULTS PWS/AS genotyping results obtained by MS-MA and by MS-MLPA were fully concordant. In addition, MS-MLPA was superior in detecting deletions/rare duplications, possible UPD15, or imprinting center defects, which were usually determined by a laborious fluorescence in situ hybridization method or by chromosomal segregation analysis for the parental-origin using short-tandem repeat makers. CONCLUSIONS MS-MA appears to be an efficient primary method to diagnose PWS/AS, and use of the quantitative MS-MLPA method provides detailed information about deletions, rare duplications, and possibly UPD.
