비허용온도인 $37^{\circ}C$에서 삼투감수성을 보이며 베타-1,3-글루칸 합성능이 현저히 손상된 Saccharomyces cerevisiae mutant(LP353)를 YCp50으로 제조한 yeast genomic library로 형질전환시킨 후, 콜로니 자기방사법으로 형질전환체의 선별을 시도한 결과, LP353의 베타-1,3-글루칸 합성능을 부분적으로 회복시켜 주는 약 8.5-kb 크기의 DNA 절편을 클로닝하는데 성공하였다. 클로닝된 8.5-kb의 DNA 절편은 copy 수에 무관하게 LP353의 또 다른 표현형질인 온도의존적 삼투감수성은 회복시켜 주지 못하였으나, 세포벽의 베타-1,3-글루칸 함량과 베타-1,3-글루칸 분해효소인 ${\beta}-glucanase$에 대한 내성은 copy수에 무관하게 증가시켜 주었다. 한편, 8.5-kb의 DNA 절편은 $37^{\circ}C$의 삼투안정제가 첨가된 액체배지에서 잘 자라지 못하는 LP353의 돌연변이 형질을 회복시켜 야생형의 수준에 근접하는 생장양상을 보여 주었다. 이상의 결과로 클로닝된 8.5-kb 크기의 DNA 절편은 S. cerevisiae의 베타-1,3-글루칸 생합성에 관여하는 유전자의 하나인 BGS2를 포함하고 있는 것으로 보여지며, subcloning을 통한 기능부위 분석 결과, 4.8-kb 크기의 BglII-KpnI DNA 절편에 BGS2가 존재하는 것으로 추정되었다.

A strain of Streptomyces cavourensis subsp. cavourensis (coded as SY224) antagonistic to Colletotrichum gloeosporioides infecting pepper plants was isolated. SY224 produced lytic enzymes such as chitinase, ${\beta}$-1,3-glucanase, lipase, and protease in respective assays. To examine for antifungal activity, the treatments amended with the nonsterilized supernatant resulted in the highest growth inhibition rate of about 92.9% and 87.4% at concentrations of 30% and 10%, respectively. However, the sterilized treatments (autoclaved or chloroform treated) gave a lowered but significant inhibitory effect of about 63.4% and 62.6% for the 10% supernatant concentration, and 75.2% and 74.8% for the of 30% supernatant concentration in the PDA agar medium, respectively, indicative of the role of a non-protein, heat stable compound on the overall effect. This antifungal compound, which inhibited spore germination and altered hyphal morphology, was extracted by EtOAc and purified by ODS, silica gel, Sephadex LH-20 column, and HPLC, where an active fraction was confirmed to be 2-furancarboxaldehyde by GS-CI MS techniques. These results suggested that SY224 had a high potential in the biocontrol of anthracnose in pepper, mainly due to a combined effect of lytic enzymes and a non-protein, heat-stable antifungal compound, 2-furancarboxaldehyde.

Glucoamylase of Saccharomyces diastaticus is produced as a large precursor composed of signal peptide (21 amino acid residues), Thr and Ser-rich region and functional glucoamylase. To evaluate the utility of the glucoamylase signal peptide (GSP) for the secretion of foreign proteins, four types of GSP mutants (ml : Pro-18 longrightarrowLeu-18, m2 : Tyr-13 longrightarrowLeu, m3 : Ser-9longrightarrowLeu-9, m4 : Asn-5 longrightarrowPro-5) were constructed and secretion efficiency of each mutant was compared with that of native GSP by the expression and secretion of Bacillus subtilis CMCase under the control of GAP in N-terminal domain and hydrophobic domain. n mutant 4, a polar amino acid was replaced by a helix - breaking Pro residue. CMCase activity assay and Western blot analysis revealed that CMCase secretion by GSP mutants replaced by Leu were increased compared with native GSP. In the case of m2 and m3, the substitution of Leu for Tyr-13 and Ser-9 in the hydrophobic region resulted in a twofold increase in the extracellular CMCase activity.

An endophytic bacterium, Bacillus thuringiensis GS1, was isolated from bracken (Pteridium aquilinum) and found to have maximal production of chitinase (4.3 units/ml) at 5 days after culture. This study investigated the ability of B. thuringiensis GS1 to induce resistance to Rhizoctonia solani KACC 40111 (RS) in cucumber plants. Chitinase activity was greatest in RS-treated plants at 4 days. ${\beta}$-1,3-Glucanase activity was highest in GS1-treated plants at 5 days. Guaiacol peroxidase (GPOD) activity increased continuously in all treated plants for 5 days. Ascorbate peroxidase (APX) activity in RS-treated plants was increased 1.5-fold compared with the control at 4 days. Polyphenol oxidase (PPO) activity in RS-treated plants was increased 1.5-fold compared with the control at 3 days. At 5 days after treatment, activity staining revealed three bands with chitinase activity (Ch1, Ch2, and Ch3) on SDS-PAGE of cucumber plants treated with GS1+RS, whereas only one band was observed for RS-treated plants (Ch2). One GPOD isozyme (Gp1) was also observed in response to treatment with RS and GS1+RS at 4 days. One APX band (Ap2) was present on the native-PAGE gel of the control, and GS1- and GS1+RS-treated plants at 1 day. PPO bands (Po1 and Po2) from RS- and GS1+RS-treated plants were stronger than in the control and GS1-treated plants upon native-PAGE at 5 days. Taken together, these results indicate that the induction of PR proteins and defense-related enzymes by B. thuringiensis GS1 might have suppressed the damping-off caused by R. solani KACC 40111 in cucumber plants.

셀룰로오스 가수분해효소의 하나인 endo-${\beta}$-1,4-D-glucanase의 유전자를 지렁이 Eisenia anderi의 중장으로부터 클로닝하여 EaEG2와 EaEG3로 명명하였다. 두 유전자의 염기는 1368bp이며, 개시코돈을 포함하여 456개의 아미노산을 코딩한다. N-말단 지역의 20개 잔기들은 signal peptide이다. 두 유전자의 전체 아미노산 염기서열은 glycosyl hydrolase family 9에 속하며, 같은 종류의 셀룰로오스 가수분해효소를 분비하는 흰개미, 바퀴벌레, 가재 그리고 연체동물과 51-55%의 높은 상동성을 보였다. 지렁이의 EaEG2와 EaEG3는 가수분해활성에 중요한 세 부분이 잘 보존되어 있다. 아미노산 염기서열을 이용한 계통수 분석에서 GHF9 그룹은 절지동물, 박테리아, 식물, 환형동물 및 연체동물의 5개 그룹으로 분석되었다.

The effect of Acibenzolar-S-methyl (ASM) and Rahnella aquatilis Ra39 against apple fire blight disease caused by Erwinia amylovora were tested as a possible alternative to streptomycin. In vitro studies, no inhibition effect against the pathogen was found when ASM was tested. Under greenhouse conditions, application of R. aquatilis Ra39 with the highly susceptible M26 rootstock resulted in a marked disease suppression. Application of ASM and strain Ra39 caused a high decrease of the disease, 82% and 58% respectively; this was correlated with a reduction of the growth of the pathogen within host plants up to 64% and 49.5% respectively. Further studies in the field under artificial infection condition during full bloom revealed that application of ASM and R. aquatilis Ra39 with Gala variety resulted in a control effect up to 21 and 29% respectively. In physiological studies, enhanced activities of PR-proteins (chitinase and $\beta$-1, 3-glucanase) were detected, which are well known as biochemical markers for systemic acquired resistance. Application of ASM to apple shoots caused the highest chitinase activity followed by strain Ra39. The enzyme activity was increased after 2, 4 and 6 days from application. In addition, ASM-treatment caused the higher $\beta$-1, 3-glucanase activity than strain Ra39. Maximum enzyme activity was recorded after 6 days from application and then decreased after 8 and 10 days from application.

To investigate the possible roles of LAMMER kinase homologue, Lkh1, in Schizosaccharomyces pombe, whole proteins were extracted from wild type and lkh1-deletion mutant cells and subjected to polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Differentially expressed proteins were identified by tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) and were compared with a protein database. In whole-cell extracts, 10 proteins were up-regulated and 9 proteins were down-regulated in the mutant. In extracellular preparations, 6 proteins were up-regulated in the lkh1+ null mutant and 4 proteins successfully identified: glycolipid anchored surface precursor, $\beta$-glucosidase (Psu1), cell surface protein, glucan 1,3-$\beta$-glucosidase (Bgl2), and exo-1,3 $\beta$-glucanase (Exg1). These results suggest that Lkh1 is involved in regulating cell wall assembly.

The fruit body of Ramaria botrytis DGUM 29001 was used to determine enzyme activities of fruit body. The specific activity of laccase was the highest(6.5 unit/mg$\cdot$protein) and that of $\alpha$-amylase and xylanase was relatively high. However, little or no enzyme activity of $\beta$-glucosidase, CMCase, exo-$\beta$-1,4-glucanase, chitinase, lipase and protease was found.

최근 들어서 생물학적 제어 방법의 하나로써 키틴분해 미생물을 이용한 제어 수단이 식물병제어에 일정한 효과가 있는 것으로 보고되고 있다. Fusarium 시들음병을 억제하기 위하여 40kg의 키틴퇴비를 면적이 $7.5m^2$ 인 토양에 정식 7일전 처리하였으며 토마토가 시들음병 증세를 보이기 시작하는 날(정식 후 66일)로부터 시작하여 4번에 걸쳐 시료를 채취하였다. 키틴퇴비 처리구(CTC)의 근권토양의 키틴효소와 ${\beta}$-1,3-glucan 효소 활성은 일반퇴비 처리구 (CC) 토양 보다 항상 높은 값을 나타냈다. 그러나 식물체 뿌리에서 측정된 chitinase, ${\beta}$-1,3-glucanase, peroxidase과 같은 병 관련 효소들은 CNC에서 실험기간동안 증가 추이를 보였다. 실험의 마지막 단계인 정식 후 96일째에는 CTC의 토마토는 CC 와 비교 할 때 25% 낮은 치사율을 나타냈다.
