亞飛馬蜂（Polistes olivaceus）和陸馬蜂（P.rothneyi grahami）蜂毒抽出液的氨基酸成分分析
Amino Acid Composition of the Venoms of Polistes olivaceus and P. rothneyi grahami (Hymenoptera: Vespoidea)
摘要
胡蜂毒成分複雜，是一類具有潛在醫療價值，值得研究開發的自然資源。本文對已成功進行了人工飼養並能活體反覆採毒的胡蜂--亞非馬蜂和陸馬蜂的蜂毒進行了氟基酸成分分析。結果表明:1.亞非馬蜂和陸馬蜂蜂毒氨基酸總量分別為28.6%和50.9%，說明二種蜂毒中非蛋白質成分佔有相當的比例，這可能有重要作用;2.陸馬蜂蜂毒中酸性氯基酸與鹼性氨基酸之比為0.42，與以往文獻報導蜂毒中許多有效成分為鹼性蛋白的結果是一致的;3.儘管二種胡蜂同屬馬蜂科，親緣關係很近，但其蜂毒的氨基酸成分差異較大，推測二種蜂毒的成分及作用會有很大的不同。

Social wasp venoms possess dazzling diversity and have great merit for medicinal use. In this experiment we measured the amino acid composition of the venoms of 2 important species of Chinese paper wasps, Polistes olivaceus and P. rothneyi grahami. Both species can be reared in the laboratory. Venoms of these wasps were collected by electric stimuli. The results show that the amino acid components comprised 28.6% and 50.9% of the venoms of Polistes olivaceus and P. rothneyi grahami, respectively, suggesting that nonproteinaceous activities are involved. The proportion of acidic amino acids to alkaline amino acids in P. rothneyi grahami venom is 0.42, which is consistent with the fact that many active components of insect venoms, are alkaline roteins or peptides. Although these 2 species belong to the same family of Polistidae, amino acid composition of their venoms differs, suggesting that the biochemical components of the venoms from the 2 wasps may be greatly different from each other.
