A Gram-positive strain designated as MSL-$14^T$ isolated from a soil sample collected from Bigeum Island, Korea, was subjected to polyphasic taxonomy. The isolate was strictly aerobic. Cells were short rods and motile. Optimum growth temperature and pH was 28$^{\circ}C$ and 7.0, respectively. It was characterized chemotaxonomically as having a cell-wall peptidoglycan type based on LL-2,6-diaminopimelic acid and MK-$8(H_4)$ as the predominant menaquinone. The major fatty acids were iso-$C_{16:0}$, $C_{17:1}$ omega8c, and $C_{18:1}$ omega9c. The G+C content was 67.6 mol%. Phylogenetic analysis based on the 16S rRNA gene sequence revealed that strain MSL-$14^T$ is affiliated to the genus Nocardioides and formed a distinct lineage within the genus. MSL-$14^T$ showed highest sequence similarity to Nocardioides aestuarii JCM $12125^T$, having a similarity of 96.5%. Based on the 16S rRNA gene sequence divergence and phenotypic characteristics, it is proposed that strain MSL-$14^T$ should be classified as representing a novel member of the genus Nocardioides, for which we propose the name Nocardioides tritolerans sp. novo The type strain is strain MSL-$14^T$ (=KCTC $19289^T$=DSM $19320^T$).

A study was undertaken to compare degradation patterns of carbofuran in soils between submerged and upland moisture conditions [$3-^{14}C$]Carbofuran was treated in each soils at the rate of 1.0 mg/kg (87.8 kBq $^{14}C/50g$ soil) and the time-course analysis for distribution of radioactivity and degradation products were conducted. Differences in the pathway and rate of carbofuran degradation in soils were observed between submerged and upland moisture conditiona major degradation being hydrolysis at 7-C position and oxidation at 3-C position, respectively. Carbofuran showed less persistence in soils of higher moisture contents A significant portion, $24{\sim}39%$ of the total radioactivity, resided in soils as nonextractable residues at 60 days after treatment The nonextractable radioactivity was mainly located in soil organic matter, fulvic acid, humic acid and humin factions Gel filtration chromatography confirmed the incorporation of carbofuran and its degradation products into the organic matter.

In order to minimize the reduction of lysine productivity by accumulation of lysine and byproducts in the end of fed-batch fermentations, a salt-tolerant mutant C14-49-3-15-7-3-20, which could grow at high concentrations of NaCl was isolated through mutagenesis from the Corynebacterium glutamicum mother strain I. In the evaluation of L-lysine productivity by fed-batch fermentations using a 5 L jar fermenter, the salt-tolerant mutant strain C14-49-3-15-7-3-20 produced 130.6 g/L of L-lysine with a 48.6% of yield. The mother strain I produced L-lysine concentration only 104.9 g/L with a yield 41.8%, implying the improvement of L-lysine productivity by introduction of salt-tolerance character.

The role of residue C323 in catalysis by human glutamate dehydrogenase isozymes (hGDH1 and hGDH2) was examined by substituting Arg, Gly, Leu, Met, or Tyr at C323 by cassette mutagenesis using synthetic human GDH isozyme genes. As a result, the $K_m$ of the enzyme for NADH and ${\alpha}-ketoglutarate$ increased up to 1.6-fold and 1.1-fold, respectively. It seems likely that C323 is not responsible for substrate-binding or coenzyme-binding. The efficiency ($k_{cat}/K_m$) of the mutant enzymes was only 11-14% of that of the wild-type isozymes, mainly due to a decrease in $k_{cat}$ values. There was a linear relationship between incorporation of [$^{14}C$]p-chloromercuribenzoic acid and loss of enzyme activity that extrapolated to a stoichiometry of one mol of [$^{14}C$] incorporated per mol of monomer for wild type hGDHs. No incorporation of [$^{14}C$]p-chloromercuribenzoic acid was observed with the C323 mutants. ADP and GTP had no effect on the binding of p-chloromercuribenzoic acid, suggesting that C323 is not directly involved in allosteric regulation. There were no differences between the two hGDH isozymes in sensitivities to mutagenesis at C323. Our results suggest that C323 plays an important role in catalysis by human GDH isozymes.

$Nd_{14}Fe_{80}B_6$ ribbon alloy was manufactured with using melt-spinning method and analyzed the magnetic properties according to the manufacturing conditions. The microstructure and magnetic properties of melt-spun ribbons are sensitively dependent on the quench rate and annealing conditions. As-quenched $Nd_{14}Fe_{80}B_6$ ribbons with optimum magnetic properties are obtained at wheel speed($v_s$) of about 20m/sec and over quenched ribbons show optimum magnetic properties at $v_s$=22m/see when annealed for 30 minutes at $600^{\circ}C$ under vacuum. The crystallization temperature($T_k$) of $Nd_2Fe_{14}B$ phase is about $595^{\circ}C$ in the DTA analysis.

A direct and precise explanation of soybean resistance to soybean cyst nematode will be possible only when the individual gene(s) involved in the resistance are tagged. This study was conducted, (1) to identify and localize quantitative trait loci for resistance to soybean cyst nematode race 14 on RAPD map, (2) to identify the magnitude and mode of inheritance for each quantitative trait loci, and (3) to identify the best combinations of quantitative trait loci for resistance to soybean cyst nematode race 14. Thirty markers (29 RAPD and 1 RFLP) showed significant association with resistance to soybean cyst nematode race 14. From MAPMAKER/QTL analysis, we identified two regions (linkage group C-7 and linkage group C-9) for resistance to soybean cyst nematode .ace 14. The first quantitative trait loci that was localized at 6.0 cM from $H06^1$ on linkage group C-7 showed a dominant inheritance mode. However, we can not exclude the possibility of additive inheritance mode. The second quantitative trait loci that was localized between $B15^2$ and $E01^1$ on linkage group C-9 also showed a dominant mode of inheritance. One pair of flanking markers ($H06^1$ and $H06^2$) and B15$^2$ were used for multiple regression analysis. Marker combination that included 2 markers, $B15^2$ and $H06^1$, explained the highest total variance (22.9%) for resistance to soybean cyst nematode race 14. Further localization of genes for resistance to soybean cyst nematode race 14 and examination of interaction between quantitative trait loci will accelerate the exploitation of resistance to soybean cyst nematode.

The protonation constants of the 14-membered tetraaza macrocycles A(3,14-dimethyl-2,6,13,17-tetraazatricyclo$[l6.4.0^{1,18}.0^{7,12}]$docosane) and B(2,3,6,13,14,17-hexamethyl-2,6,13,17-tetraazatric yclo-[l6.4.$0^{1,18}.0^{7,12}$]docosane) were measured by potentiometry. The formation constants of each of these ligands with copper(II) and nickel(II) were determined by an out-of-cell spectrophotometric method. The results indicate that the per-N-methylated macrocycle B exhibits much higher selectivity for complex formation with copper(II) over nickel(II) ion than A and other related 14-membered tetraaza macrocycles. The effects of the N-and C-substituents on the basicity and the metal ion selectivity of the ligands are discussed. The synthesis and properties of copper(II) and nickel(II) complexes of B are also described.

A new di-N-cyanoethylated 14-membered tetraaza macrocycle 1,8-bis(2-cyanoethyl)-3,5,7,7,10,12,14,14-octamethyl-1,4,8,11-tetraazacyclotetradecane $(L^2)$ and its nickel(II) complex $[NiL^2(OAc)]^+$ have been prepared. The square-planar complex $[NiL^2](C IO_4)_2$ can be prepared by addition of $HClO_4$ to a hot aqueous solution of $[NiL^2(OAc)]^+$ The Ni-N (tertiary amino group) bond distances $(2.008{\AA})$ of $[NiL^2](C IO_4)_2$ are relatively long, and the complex exhibits a d-d transition band at unusually long wavelength (ca. 515 nm). The complex $[NiL^2](C IO_4)_2$ rapidly reacts with acetate ion or ethylenediamine (en) to produce $[NiL^2(OAc)]^+$ or [Ni(en)_3]^{2+}$, respectively, and is readily decomposed in NaOH (0.01 M) solution. The chemical properties of $[NiL^2]^{2+}$ as well as its synthetic procedure are quite different from those for other related 14-membered tetraaza macrocyclic complexes. Effects of the N-cyanoethyl and C-methyl groups on the properties of $L^2$.

The effects of glass addition on the densification and the microwave properties of $(Ba_{0.5}Pb_{0.5})Nd_2Ti_5O_{14}$ dielectric system were studied. When 2~3 wt% of borosilicate glass were added, the density increased and the better microwave properties were obtained. When a sample was sintered at $950^{\circ}C$ with 3 wt% of glass, the quality factor and the temperature coefficient of the resonant frequency of the specimen were 4500 and +10 $ppm/^{\circ}C$, respectively. The dielectric constant, however, decreased from 90 to 75 with glass addition.
