국내에서 개발된 비타민 E 강화 유전자변형 들깨의 정성 PCR 분석법의 개발을 위해 들깨의 내재 유전자로써 KAS-I (Beta-ketoacyl-ACP synthase I)를 선별하였고, 이러한 내재유전자를 특이적으로 증폭시킬 수 있는Primer(Pfru3-F/R)쌍을 이용한 PCR에서 95 bp의 PCR증폭 산물을 얻었으며, 들깨를 포함한 16개 작물에 대해 PCR을 수행한 결과에서 들깨만이 특이적으로 증폭되는 것을 확인하였다. 또한, 비타민 E 강화 유전자변형 들깨에 삽입된 TMT(${\gamma}$-tocopherol methyltransferase) 유전자와 OCS(Octopine synthase) terminator 연결 부위를 증폭시켜 148 bp의 PCR 산물을 얻을 수 있는 primer(TMTO-F/R)를 제작하였으며, 이러한 두 쌍의 primer를 이용하여 국내 개발된 비타민 E 강화 유전자변형 들깨의 PCR 정성 분석법을 확립하였다.

A standard type II polyketide synthase (PKS) gene cluster was isolated while attempting to clone the biosynthetic gene for lipstatin from Streptomyces toxytricini NRRL 15,443. This result was observed using a Southern blot of a PstI-digested S. toxytricini chromosomal DNA library with a 444 bp amplified probe of a ketosynthase (KS) gene fragment. Four open reading frames [thioesterase (TE), $\beta$-ketoacyl systhase (KAS), chain length factor (CLF), and acyl carrier protein (ACP)], were identified through the nucleotide sequence determination and analysis of a 4.5 kb cloned DNA fragment. In order to confirm the involvement of a cloned gene in lipstatin biosynthesis, a gene disruption experiment for the KS gene was performed. However, the resulting gene disruptant did not show any significant difference in lipstatin production when compared to wild-type S. toxytricini. This result suggests that lipstatin may not be synthesized by a type II PKS.

A universal set of genes encodes the components of dissociated. type II. fa11y acid synthase system that is responsible for producing the multitude of fa11y acid structures found in bacterial membranes. We examined the biochemical basis for the production of fatty acids by bacteria. Several genes from HaemophHus influenzae Rd and three genes from Enterococcus faecalis V583 were predicted to encode homologs of the ${\beta}$-ketoacyl-acyl carrier protein synthases I or II or III of Escherichia coli(FabB or BabF, or FabH)were identified in the genomic database. The protein products were expressed. purified, and biochemically characterized. efFabH and hF abH carried out the initial condensation reaction of fatty acid biosynthesis with acetyl-Coenzyme A as a primer. and hFabB and efFabF1 carried out the elongation condensation reaction of fatty acid biosynthesis with myrixtoyl-ACP.
