Abstract
In order to understand the structural characteristics of squalene synthase genes in the triterpenoids biosynthesis pathway of Crataegus pinnatifida, the squalene synthase genes of C. pinnatifida was cloned and analyzed by bioinformatics and prokaryotic expression. Two squalene synthase genes CpSQS1 and CpSQS2 were cloned from C. pinnatifida fruit by RT-PCR. The ORF length of CpSQS1 and CpSQS2 were 1 239 bp and 1 233 bp respectively, encoding 412 aa and 410 aa respectively. CpSQS1 and CpSQS2 were predicted to be stable acidic proteins by online tools. The secondary structure was mainly composed of α-helix structure, and the tertiary structure was predicted by homology modeling. Structural functional domain analysis showed that 35-367 aa of CpSQS1 and CpSQS2 cDNA containing conserved trans-isoprenyl pyrophosphate synthase domains. Transmembrane domain analysis predicted that two transmembrane domains were founded in CpSQS1 and CpSQS2. The squalene synthase amino sequence of C. pinnatifida had higher homology with the known SQS of Salvia miltiorrhiza and Glycyrrhiza glabra. Phylogenetic tree analysis showed that CpSQS1 and CpSQS2 were clustered into one branch of MdSQS1 and MdSQS2, which were consistent with the phylogenetic rule. Prokaryotic expression vector pGEX-4 T-1-CpSQS1 and pGEX-4 T-1-CpSQS2 were transformed into Escherichia coli Transetta(DE3) for induction, and the target protein was successfully expressed at 65 kDa. The expression levels of CpSQS2 were significantly higher than that of CpSQS1 in three different developmental stages of C. pinnatifida. In this study, the full-length cDNA sequences of C. pinnatifida SQS1 and SQS2 were cloned and analyzed for the first time, which provided the foundation for further study on the metabolic pathway of C. pinnatifida triterpenoids.

Abstract
To establish a DNA molecular markers method for identification of Corydalis yanhusuo,C. turtschaninovii and C. decumbens,the mat K,trn G and psb A-trn H sequences of 56 samples from 14 species of C. yanhusuo,C. turtschaninovii,C. decumbens and their related species were obtained by sequencing. The SNP loci were obtained by Bio Edit 7. 2. 2 software. The primers for AS-PCR identification were designed based on the mutation sites,and the conditions of PCR were optimized to identify C. yanhusuo,C. turtschaninovii,and C. decumbens according to the specific bands. The results showed that the amount of template( 0. 6-1 200 ng)and annealing temperature( 42-60 ℃) had little influence on the amplification results,and the number of cycles had much influence on the amplification results. When the number of cycles was 20,the specific bands of 297 bp( mat K),353 bp( trn G) and 544 bp( mat K) were amplified from C. yanhusuo,C. turtschaninovii and C. decumbens,respectively. The method established in this study had a minimum detection limit of 6 ng for C. yanhusuo,60 ng for C. decumbens and less than 0. 6 ng for C. turtschaninovii. Thus,the allelespecific PCR method established in the research can specifically identify C. yanhusuo,C. turtschaninovii,and C. decumbens.

Abstract
"Xishuang" is a special phenomenon that chemical composition of medicinal materials crystallize on the surface exposed to air for a long time. We summarized Herbal textual research of "Xishuang" phenomenon of six herbs, such as Schisandrae Chinensis Fructus, Moutan Cortex, Atractylodis Rhizoma, Magnoliae Officinalis Cortex, dried persimmon frost and watermelon frost. From historical perspective, cream of Schisandrae Chinensis Fructus was firstly discovered in Lei Gong's Moxibustion Theory. Thereafter, dried persimmon frost was found in Song Dynasty, which was named "white persimmon" in Ben Cao Tu Jing and had become an independent medicine in Compendium of Materia Medica. Then, watermelon frost was found in Yang Yi Da Quan of the Qing Dynasty, and Moutan Cortex's "sand star" was recorded in Zeng Ding Wei Yao Tiao Bian of the Republic of China. After that, "Xishuang" phenomenon of Atractylodis Rhizomaand Magnoliae Officinalis Cortex were reported in 1950s and 1960s in succession. The pattern of "Xishuang" is divided into different type, natural "Xishuang" includes Schisandrae Chinensis Fructus, Moutan Cortex, Atractylodis Rhizoma and Magnoliae Officinalis Cortex, artificial "Xishuang" includes watermelon frost, and dried persimmon frost formed crystals by using artificial intervention. The above 6 kinds of herbs have different crystal structure and chemical composition. Therefore, according to traditional identification experience, "Xishuang" phenomenon is related to varieties and quality of medicinal herbs. These research provide herbalism basis for the modern study of "Xishuang" medicinal materials.

Abstract
To investigate the effects of a synthetic soybean isoflavone (ISF) on growth performance, meat quality, and antioxidation in male broilers, 1,500 birds that were 42 d old were allotted to 5 treatments with 6 replicates per treatment (50 birds per replicate). Birds were fed diets supplemented with 0, 10, 20, 40, or 80 mg of ISF/kg, respectively, for a period of 3 wk ad libitum. The results showed that dietary supplementations with 10 or 20 mg of ISF/kg increased weight gain by 13.6 and 16.2% (P < 0.01) and elevated feed intake by 7.37% (P < 0.05) and 11.2% (P < 0.01), respectively. Addition of 10 mg of ISF/kg decreased feed:gain by 5.5% (P < 0.05). Supplementation with 40 mg of ISF/kg in the diet slightly increased water-holding capacity by 17.24% (P < 0.1), and the addition of 20 or 40 mg/kg of ISF significantly increased the pH value of meat (P < 0.01), although adding 40 or 80 mg of ISF/kg increased the lightness of meat color (P < 0.05). Malondialdehyde production was slightly reduced in plasma of 20 mg of ISF/kg supplemented chickens (P < 0.1) and significantly decreased in breast muscles of 20, 40, or 80 mg of ISF/kg supplemented chickens (P < 0.01). The addition of 40 or 80 mg of ISF/kg significantly increased total antioxidant capability (P < 0.01) and slightly elevated total superoxide dismutase activity (P < 0.1) in plasma of chickens. The dose of 80 mg of ISF/kg slightly improved catalase activity in plasma (P < 0.06). In breast muscle, treatment of birds with 40 or 80 mg of ISF/kg caused an increase of total superoxide dismutase activity by 25.36% (P < 0.05) or 63.93% (P < 0.01). Catalase activity significantly increased by 70.61% by the supplemental ISF at the 40-mg level (P < 0.05). Also, 10, 20, or 40 mg doses of ISF/kg decreased lactic acid production (P < 0.05). The results of this study indicate that dietary ISF could improve growth performance and meat quality by decreasing lipid peroxidation and improving antioxidative status in male broilers.

Abstract
A new peptide named Martentoxin I and an analogue Martentoxin were purified and characterized from the venom of Buthus martensi Karch. Martentoxin I consisted of 36 amino acid residues with molecular mass as 3908.0 Da determined by matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization time-of-flight-MS. The amino acid sequence was determined as GLIDVKCFASSECWTACKKVTGSGQGKCQNNQCRCY by Edman degradation. Martentoxin consisted of 37 amino acid residues with a molecular mass as 4055.3 Da and it showed highly sequence identity to Martentoxin I as FGLIDVKCFASSECWTACKKVTGSGQGKCQNNQCRCY. Estimation from circular dichroism spectra indicated Martentoxin I owned 18.0% alpha-helix, 53.0% beta-sheet structure and 3.9% turn while Martentoxin contained 13.3% alpha-helix, 64.3% beta-sheet structure and 1.1% turn. The toxicity assay showed both peptides had no toxic effects on mice up to the dose of 10 mg/kg. Electrophysiological studies showed that Martentoxin I and Martentoxin at the concentration of 1 microm significantly inhibited voltage-dependent Na+ current (INa) and voltage-dependent delayed rectifier K+ current (IK) but had no effects on transient K+ current (IA). Both interactions with Na+ and K+ channels were irreversible.
