Notes: Abstract Soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] evolution was examined by sequencing portions of the restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) locus A-199a of 21 taxa from the Glycininae and 1 from the Phaseoleae. Four hundred nucleotides were determined in each, aligned, and then compared for these taxa. Within the annual soybean subgenus (Soja), the four accessions differed at as many as 2.2% of the nucleotides. Among 13 perennial soybean species (subgenus Glycine), nucleotide variation ranged from 1.7% to 8.4%. The nucleotide difference between the two soybean subgenera was 3.0–7.0%. Nucleotide variation between the genus Glycine and the related genera of Neonotonia, Amphicarpa, Teramnus, and Phaseolus ranged from 8.2% to 16.4%. In addition to nucleotide substitutions, insertions/deletions (indels) differences were also observed and were consistent with nucleotide-based analysis. Cladistic analysis of the A-199a sequences was performed using Wagner parsimony to construct a soybean phylogeny. Sixteen equally parsimonious trees were produced from these data. The trees were 246 steps in length with a consistency index of 0.78. Indels distribution upon the consensus topology revealed a pattern congruent with the nucleotide-based phylogeny. The current taxonomic status of the soybean subgenera and the related genera of Neonotonia, Amphicarpa, and Teramnus were well-supported and appear monophyletic in this analysis. Homoplasy within the subgenus Glycine led to a lack of resolved topology for many of these 13 taxa. However, the Glycine clade topology was consistent with phylogenies proposed using crossing experiments and cpDNA RFLPs. These genera were arranged from ancestral to derived as: Teramnus, Amphicarpa, Neonotonia, and Glycine when Phaseolus vulgaris was used as an outgroup.

Notes: Previously we showed that CHO cell growth is arrested in the G1 or G0 phase within 24 h after the biosynthesis of mevalonic acid is blocked. The growth-limiting factor under these conditions appeared to be dolichyl phosphate or one of its glycosylated derivatives with consequent decrease in the synthesis of N-linked glycoproteins (Doyle, J.W., and A.A. Kandutsch, 1988, J. Cell Physiol. 137:133-140; Kabakoff, B., J.W. Doyle, and A.A. Kandutsch, 1990, Arch. Biochem. Biophys. 276:382-389). We show herein that cell surface glycoproteins are depleted in the inhibited cultures and that growth arrest is delayed when supraphysiological concentrations of insulin, insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) and bFGF are added to the culture medium. Apparently an elevated level of a growth factor increases the length of time during which a threshold level of occupied receptor is maintained as the number of glycosylated receptor molecules declines. The results support the idea that cellular levels of dolichyl phosphate and its derivatives may limit cell division by controlling the numbers of functional receptors for growth factors and of other glycoproteins on the cell surface. © 1993 Wiley-Liss, Inc.
