  • 유전자 변형 작물은 생산성 측면에서 많은 장점이 있지만 이를 섭취할 경우 잠재적인 위험 요소들에 의해 많은 문제가 대두대고 있다. 본 연구는 저항성유전자를 이입한 배추에서 Profillin, Tubulin-${\alpha}$ (Tub-${\alpha}1$), Heat-shock protein (Bchsp 17.6) and Ubiquitin conjugating enzyme (UBE)의 발현과 이를 30일간 섭취한 마우스에서 ${\beta}$-actin(${\beta}$-act), ${\beta}$-2-microglobulin (B2m), Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) and ${\beta}$-glucuronidase (Gus)의 발현 정도를 RT-PCR을 통해 알아보았다. 실험 결과 저항성유전자를 이입한 배추와 그렇지 않은 배추의 유전자 발현 패턴은 큰 차이를 보이지 앓았으며, 이를 섭취한 마우스 장기에서도 발현에 따른 큰 차이는 나타나지 않았다.

  • 한국에서 해송의 줄기변색 부위에서 분리된 변색균류중 한 종에 대하여 그 특성을 조사하였다. Cycloheximide에 저항성인 Ophiostoma piceae complex 그룹에서 보여지는 무성세대 Petosum의 분생포자경과 또 다른 무성세대 Sporothrix의 형태를 지니고 있었다. 그러나 완전세대의 모습인 자낭각을 형성하지 못하였다. 이 균류는 배양적특성, 형태적특성 그리고 $\beta$-tubulin 유전자 염기서열 분석을 통하여 Ophiostoma quercus로 동정되었다. 본 연구에서는 한국에서 분리된 O. quercus의 균학적 특성을 처음으로 보고하고자 한다.

  • GM 및 non-GM 감자의 인체 위해성 여부를 판단하기 위하여 마우스 비장세포에서 인터루킨과 housekeeping gene의 발현을 RT-PCR로 비교 분석하였다. 유전자변형 감자의 잎과 이를 섭취한 마우스의 비장세포에서 발현되는 housekeeping gene의 발현을 수행한 결과, APRT, $\beta$-tubulin, Actin, Hsp 20.2, Cyclophilin, 18S RNA and Efla, and Tbp, GAPDH, $\beta$-actin, Tuba2, Hprt, Cyclophlin A, Tfrc, and RPL13A의 발현에는 유전자 변형 감자와 그렇지 않은 감자와의 차이를 발견할 수 없었다. GM작물의 안전성에 대한 연구는 많은 표본을 가지고, 보다 장기적인 관점에서 다양한 모니터링 시스템을 도입이 필요하다고 판단되며 이의 향후 연구에 많은 관심이 필요하다.

  • We cloned the complete cDNA of the ${\beta}-bubulin$ from the soft coral, Scleronephthya gracillimum $(K\ddot{u}kenthal)$ (Alcyonacea, Octocorallia, Anthozoa, Cnidaria), via the random sequencing of a cDNA library and the 5'-rapid amplification of cDNA end (RACE) technique. The full-length cDNA of the S. gracillimum ${\beta}-tubulin$ comprised 1541 bp, not including the poly $A^+$ stretch, also contained a complete open reading frame, which codes for a total of 445 amino acids. The amino acid residues 16402 appeared to be in a state of conservation in a variety of animals. Northern blot analysis clearly demonstrated that the sequence we have obtained is, indeed, the full-length cDNA of the ${\beta}-bubulin$ gene in S. gracillimum.

  • During 2007 survey of post-harvest diseases of yam performed in May and June, severe tuber loss caused by blue mold was observed in Iksan, Cheonbuk Province. Two species of Penicillium were isolated from the infected tubers. Based on $\beta$-tubulin gene sequence analysis, and cultural and morphological characteristics, the isolates were identified as Penicillium sclerotigenum and P. polonicum. P. sclerotigenum, which is a novel to Korea, is presently described and illustrated.

  • An Ophiostoma fungus was isolated from a stump of Pinus thunbergii in a forest on the West coast of Korea. Microscopic analysis using a light microscope, a stereo microscope, and a scanning electron microscope revealed that it had morphological features of Pesotum and Sporothix synanarmorphs. Based on the $\beta$-tubulin gene sequence analysis, the fungus was identified as the anamorph of Ophiostoma floccosum. Mycological properties of the species including its growth properties on different culture media were described.

  • Two new records of Penicillium from blue moldy bulbs of lily are reported in Korea. The Korean isolates of P. albocoremium (Frisvad) Frisvad and P. tulipae Overy and Frisvad were phylogenetically identical to the reference species based on DNA sequence of the ${\beta}-tubulin$ gene. P. albocoremium and P. tulipae are described and illustrated.

  • HIV-1 gp41의 세포내 부분과 상호작용하는 단백질 유전자를 분리할 목적으로 yeast two hybrid system을 사용하여 검색하였다. 전체 $1.4 \times 10^6 colony를 검색하여 최종적으로 20개의 colony를 얻었다. 이들 colony로부터 분리된 유전자의 염기배열을 결정하여 본 결과, acidic ribosomal protein P0, beta tubulin, alpha catenin등의 세가지 종류임을 밝혔다. 이들은 yeast system 내에서 매우 특이적으로 gp41과 상호작용하고 있음을 알았다.

  • The p53 gene is inactivated by the human papillomavirus (HPV) E6 protein in the majority of cervical cancers. Treatment of HeLa S3 cells with siRNA for HPV E6 permitted adenovirus-mediated transduction of a p53 gene linked to an upstream estrogen response element (ERE). Our previous study in non-siRNA treated HHUA cells, which are derived from an endometrial cancer and express estrogen receptor ${\beta}$, showed enhancing effects of an upstream ERE on adenovirus-mediated p53 gene transduction. In HeLa S3 cells treated with siRNA for HPV E6, adenovirus-mediated transduction was enhanced by an upstream ERE linked to a p53 gene carrying a proline variant at codon 72, but not for a p53 gene with arginine variant at codon 72. Expression levels of p53 mRNA and Coxsackie/adenovirus receptor (CAR) mRNA after adenovirus-mediated transfer of an ERE-linked p53 gene (proline variant at codon 72) were higher compared with those after non-ERE-linked p53 gene transfer in siRNA-treated HeLa S3 cells. Western blot analysis showed lower ${\beta}$-tubulin levels and comparatively higher p53/${\beta}$-tubulin or CAR/${\beta}$-tubulin ratios in siRNA-treated HeLa S3 cells after adenovirus-mediated ERE-linked p53 gene (proline variant at codon 72) transfer compared with those in non-siRNA-treated cells. Apoptosis, as measured by annexin V binding, was higher after adenovirus-mediated ERE-linked p53 gene (proline variant at codon 72) transfer compared with that after non-ERE-linked p53 gene transfer in siRNA-treated cells.

  • Grape fruits with blue mold symptoms were collected from house storages in different locations in Korea and were investigated for their association with Penicillium species. A total of 12 isolates of Penicillium were isolated from the collected fruits. Based on morphological and cultural characteristics and ${\beta}-tublin$ gene sequence data analysis, they were identified as P. bialowiezense, P. citrinum, P. echinulatum, P. expansum, P. solitum and unidentified Penicillium species. P. solitum was the predominant followed by P. expansum. P. bialowiezense and P. echinulatum were newly recorded in Korea. ${\beta}-Tubulin$ gene sequences could be used to distinguish each species of Penicillium and the molecular groups were correlated well with the morphological species. The unidentified species was supposed to be a new species, not previously reported in literature.
