The retinae and the lens bodies of the frogs were hydrolyzed with 20% hydrochloric acid, and their amino acids were separated by paper chromatography. As a result of it the following were confirmed : (1) The retinae and the lens bodies were the same incomposition, and aspartic acid, glutamic acid, serine ,tyrosine, glycine, lysine arginine, threonine, alanine, histidine, proline, methionine, valine , phenylalanine, leucine, and two unknown substances were separated. (2) The free amino acids in the retinae were extracted with 80% ethyl alcohol and then separated by paper chromatography. Though their separation was not so definite , serine, gultaminc acid, and glycine were always separated regardless of the amount of the sample. When the amount of the smaple was enough , $\beta$-alanine , ${\gamma}$-amino butyric acid and methionine +valine were also separated.

NAD+ analogs, 8-( 6-aminohexyl) aminonicotinamide adenine dinucleotide and N6-[(6- aminohewl)-carbamoylmethyl]- NAD+, were imobilized on bovine caseins by the action of hansglutaminase. It appears that NAD+ analogs bind with $\alpha$S1-and $\beta$-caseins through formation of the r-glutamylamine bond between the amino groups attached to the hexyl chains in NAD+ analogs and the glutaminyl residues in caseins. The NAD+ analogs immobilized on the caseins were enzymatically reducible by alcohol dehydrogenase. $\beta$-Casein was more useful carrier than the $\alpha$S1-casein and 8-substituted NAD+ analog was more effective than N6-substituted one in immobilization. Michaelis constant of 8-substituted NAD+ analog immobilized on $\beta$-casein in alcohol dehydrogenase reaction was similar to that of free from of NAD+ and that of NAD+ analog. Immobilized NAD+ was much more stable at alkaline pH than free NAD+ and its analog while maximum velocity was reduced to 31% of the free NAD+ analog. The coenzyme casein conjugated was recovered almost completely in casein precipitated by calcium.

Selective ${\beta}_1$-agonist and antagonists are used for the treatment of cardiac diseases including congestive heart failure, angina pectoris and arrhythmia. Selective ${\beta}_1$-antagonists including nebivolol have high binding affinity on ${\beta}_1$-adrenergic receptor, not ${\beta}_2$-receptor mainly expressed in smooth muscle. Nebivolol is one of most selective ${\beta}_1$-blockers in clinically used ${\beta}_1$-blockers including atenolol and bisoprolol. We tried to develop clinically useful cardiac PET tracers using a selective ${\beta}_1$-blocker. Nebivolol is $C_2$-symmetric and has two chromane moiety with a secondary amino alcohol and aromatic fluorine. We adopted the general synthetic strategy using epoxide ring opening reaction. Unlike formal synthesis of nebivolol, we prepared two chromane building blocks with fluorine and iodine which was transformed to diaryliodonium salt for labelling of $^{18}F$. Two epoxide building blocks were readily prepared from commercially available chromene carboxylic acids (1, 8). Then, the amino alcohol building block (15) was prepared by ammonolysis of epoxide (14) followed by coupling reaction with the other building block, epoxide (7). Diaryliodonium salt, a precursor for $^{18}F$-aromatic substitution, was synthesized in moderate yield which was readily subjected to $^{18}F$-aromatic substitution to give $^{18}F$-labelled nebivolol.

A potentially tetradentate Schiff base ligand, 2-((2-((pyridin-2-ylmethylene)amino)ethyl)amino)ethan-1-ol (PMAE), and its cadmium(II) complex, [$Cd(PMAE)I_2$] (1), were prepared and characterized by elemental analysis, FT-IR, Raman, $^1H$ and $^{13}C$ NMR spectroscopies and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. In the crystal structure of 1, the cadmium atom has a slightly distorted square-pyramidal geometry and a $CdN_3I_2$ environment in which the PMAE acts as an $N_3$-donor. In the crystal packing of the complex, the alcohol and amine groups of the coordinated ligands participate in hydrogen bonding with iodide ions and form $R^2{_2}(14)$ and $R^2{_2}(8)$ hydrogen bond motifs, respectively. In addition to the hydrogen bonds, the crystal network is stabilized by ${\pi}-{\pi}$ stacking interactions between pyridine rings. The thermodynamic stability of the isolated ligand and its cadmium complex along with their charge distribution patterns were studied by DFT and NBO analysis.

In this study, three kinds of Korean snake wine (50 V% alcohol extracts) were determined by amino acid analyzer and were discussed as follows. 1. Salmosa Ju and Nungsa Ju were composed of 22 free amino acids: cysteic acid, aspartic acid, threonine, serine, glutamic acid, proline, glycine, alanine, cystine, valine, methionine, iso-leucine, allo-iso-leucine, leucine, nor-leucine, tyrosine, phenylalanine, ${\beta}-alanine$, lysine, arginine, histidine, trytophan. 2. Doksa Ju were composed of 21 free amino acids which were all same as above except missing histidine. 3. The free amino acid composition were almost identical in Doksa Ju, Salmosa Ju and Nungsa Ju quantitatively. 4. The contents of cysteic acid, glutamic acid, glycine, alanine, valine, leucine and lysine were relatively high, on the other hand, methionine, allo-iso-leucine, nor-leucine, and tryptophan were trace amount in every snake wine. 5. Eleven unknowns of ninhydrin positives were identified in the every snake wine. 6. The free amino acids in snake wines were various in kind as compared with in beer, Japanese sake and Korean Tack Ju. Especially cysteic acid, allo-iso-leucine, nor-leucine and ${\beta}-alanine$ in snake wines were missed in every cereal wine.

The ${\beta}$-Amylase cDNA fragment from the oomcete Saprolegnia parasitica was cloned by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) using degenerate oligonucleotide primers derived from conserved ${\beta}$-amylase sequences. The 5'and 3'regions of the $\beta$-amylase gene were amplified using the rapid amplification of cDNA ends (rACE) system. It consisted of an open reading frame of 1,350 bp for a protein of 450 amino acids. Comparison between the genomic and cDNA sequences revealed that the intron was not present in the coding region. The deduced amino acid sequence of the ${\beta}$-amylase gene had a 97% similarity to the ${\beta}$-amylase of Saprolegnia ferax, followed by 41% similarity to those of Arabidopsis thaliana, Hordeum vulgare, and Zea mays. The ${\beta}$-amylase gene was also expressed in Saccharomyces cerevisiae by placing it under the control of the alcohol dehydrogenase gene (ADC1) promoter.

In order to examine physicochemical gelation behavior of ultra high temperature(UHT) pasteurized milk during storage at 4$^{\circ}C$ and 25$^{\circ}C$, pH, electrophoresis, alcohol test, sialic acid contents and free amino groups contents were biweekly determined. The pH of UHT pasteurized milk decreased with increasing storage time. Gelation of the UHT milk occured faster at 25$^{\circ}C$ than at 4$^{\circ}C$ with larger decreasing rate of pH. The alcohol test showed positive results at lower pH than 6.5, which could indicate the casein instability and beginning of gelation. The electrophoretic patterns showed a decrease in the concentrations of all caseins. Degradation of k-casein was faster in all cases, while $\alpha$-casein and $\beta$-casein were also extensively degraded later. The sialic acid contents of the samples increased gradually during storage, and the increasing rate was higher before gel formation. The free amino groups of the samples increased gradually during storage. The increasing rate of free amino groups was faster at 25$^{\circ}C$ than at 4$^{\circ}C$. The samples stored at 25$^{\circ}C$ gelled earlier than those stored at 25$^{\circ}C$, with corresponding increase of free amino groups. The residual proteolytic enzymes, which survived during the UHT heat treatments and were reactivated during storage, could be responsible for UHT pasteurized milk gelation during storage. It is assumed that proteolytic degradation of caseins followed by aggregation would be attributable to complicated reaction mechanism.

A gene, Egl, from Paenibacillus sp. KCTC 8848P encoding endo-${\circ}$-1,4-glucanase was cloned and expressed in Escherichia coli. It consisted of an open reading frame of 1,191 bp for a protein that consisted of 397 amino acids with a molecular weight of 44,539 Da. The deduced amino acid sequence of the endo-${\circ}$-1,4-glucanase gene had a 94% similarity to the endo-$\beta$-1,4-glucanase of Bacillus polymyxa. The Egl gene was also expressed in Saccharomyces cerevisiae secreting Endomyces fibuliger $\beta$-glucosidase (BGL1) under the control of the alcohol dehydrogenase (ADC1) gene promoter, S. cerevisiae transformant producing both endo-${\circ}$-1,4-glucanase and ${\circ}$-glucosidase grew on carboxymethyl cellulose as the sole carbon source.
