Properties as related to the utilization of the crude proteases extracted from the muscle and viscera of fish (2 dark fleshed lish; anchovy, Engraulis japonica, and gizzard-shad, Clupanoda punctatus; 2 white fleshed fish; seabass, Lateolabrax japonicus, and sole, Pleuronichthys cornutus) were studied. Proteolytic activity of the muscle protease was slightly inhibited with the increase of sodium chloride concentration and it was apparent against the yellowtail myofibrillar protein than casein substrate. Proteolytic activities of the seabass and sole visceral crude protease were inhibited to 50 to $60\%\;by\;25\%$ of sodium chloride, but those of anchovy and gizzard-shad viscera crude enzymes were not influenced by sodium chloride. The vacuum freeze-dried crude protease and glycerol-mixed crude pretense of gizzard-shad and seabass muscles were almost lost their activities on the 16th week of storage, while those from the viscera of the fish were relatively stable. Degradation of the yellowtail myofibrillar protein by the anchovy muscle and viscera crude pretenses rapidly proceeded in the beginning of the reaction and the degraded products were mainly distributed in the range of 6 to 15 kDa electrophoretically.

Protein domain is the conserved unit of compact tree-dimensional structure and evolution, which carries specific function. Domains may appear in patterns in proteins, since they have been conserved through the evolution for functional formation of proteins. In this paper, we propose a formulated method for conservation analysis of domain combination based on association rule. Proposed method measures mutual dependency of domains in a combination, as well as co-occurrence frequency of them, which is conventionally used. Based on the method, we extracted conserve domain combinations in S.cerevisiae proteins and analyzed their functions based on Gene Ontology. From the results, we drew conclusions that domains in S.cerevisiae proteins form patterns whose members are highly affiliated to one another, and that extracted patterns tend to be associated with molecular function. Moreover, the results testified to proposed method superior to conventional ones for identifying domain combinations conserved for functional cooperation.

To recover proteins from antarctic krill(Euphausia superba) for the use of food material, some factors affecting the extraction of protein were investigated. The protein solubility profile showed a minimum solubility level(33.2-38.8%) within the range of pH4.0-4.5 and very high solubility levels as 56.8% at pH2.0 and 80.7% at pH11.0. The extraction yield increased as the solvent-to-krill ratios increase in which a ratio of 5:1(volume of solvent/weight of krill) was found to be preferable from the point of handling convenience and extraction yield. The extraction temperatures did not seem to be important variables on extraction of protein. The extraction of krill protein occurred fairly rapidly with little further extraction of protein after 30 minutes. The extraction of protein was slightly decreased at both acidic(pH2.0) and alkaline(pH11.0) conditions with the increasing concentration of sodium chloride. The extractibility of krill protein at strong alkaline condition(pH11.0) was higher than at strong acidic condition(pH2.0) under the same concentration range as 1-6% of sodium chloride. In phosphate treatments, the extraction of protein was slightly influenced by presence of sodium chloride as the concentration range of 3-4% in the aqueous solvent by which maximize the extraction yield as over 80%.

The effect of various rice bran extracts such as water extracts (RBW), methanol extracts (RBM) and protein-fiber extracts (RPDF) on serum and liver lipid contents were investigated in rats fed with high-fat diet for 4 weeks. The increases of body weights in RPDF group were lower than those of control group. Serum total cholesterol concentrations were significantly decreased in RPDF group compared with control group. The contents of liver lipid in all three experimental groups were decreased compared to control group. Especially, total cholesterol contents of liver in RPDF group were significantly lower than those in control group. Compared to control group, the levels of thiobarbituric acid reactive substance in the livers of rats in all experimental groups were significantly reduced, but there was no significant difference among the three experimental groups.

주어진 셀이나 조직에 발현된 단백질 프로파일의 구조적인 분석을 다루는 단백질체학(Proteomics) 연구에 있어서, 질병에 대한 마커 단백질(marker proteins)을 도출(identification)하는 것은 핵심 논점 중 하나이다. 수십 개의 샘플로부터 추출한 셀이나 조직 내에는 수많은 단백질이 포함되어 있으며, 존재하는 단백질의 질병에 의한 발현량(expression level) 변화 및 임상 특성에 의한 영향을 분석하기 위해서 데이터베이스와 데이터 마이닝 기술의 활용이 효과적이다. 본 논문에서는 질병 일 임상 특성에 따른 단백질의 발현량 변화를 분석하기 위한 OLAP 데이터 큐브(Data cube)의 응용 방법과 단백질 데이터의 분석에 적합한 척도(measure)를 제안하고, 유효성을 보인다.

This paper analyzes techniques that extract objective information from distributed web databases for bioinformatics based on relationship among information. Moreover, we discuss the design and implementation of a method for knowledge enhancement in respect of protein information. Web data extractor can be constructed by using a manual, semi-automatic, or automatic way. Data extractor generally makes use of identifiers in order to search and extract targeting information from a specified web page. This paper presents a design and implementation for the protein databases of an organism by utilizing web data extraction techniques.

Forty one samples from thirty three species of algae (19 from 15 species of Rhodophyceae, 18 from 14 species of Phaeophyceae, 3 from 3 species of Chlorophyceae, and 1 of marine Phanerogams) collected from several locations on the east, west and south coast of Korea, were analyzed for their contents of crude protein, fat, cellulose, ash, nitrogen free extract, amino nitrogen, and total amino acids. For the examination of extractability of algal protein with water, 4 species of algae, Sargassum thunberggi, Grateloupia filicina, Phyllospadix japonica, and Sargassum confusum, were analyzed. And the effect of some precipitation treatments for isolation of algal protein was also tested. As a matter of fact, Rhodophyceae showed high content in crude protein and low in crude fat while the case was opposite for Phaeophyceae and Chlorophyceae. Refering to the content of crude protein and total amino acids, the recommendable algae for protein sources were Sargassum thunbergii, Acrosorium flabellata, Phacelocarpus japonicus, Laurencia okamurai, Laurencia intermedia, Grateloupia filicina, Chondrus ocellatus, Gloiopeltis furcata, Gigartina tenella, Dictyota dichotoma, and Scytosiphon lomentaria. Methanol treatment appeared most effective in precipitation isolation of protein from water extracts whereas pH control method did not so beneficial. The precipitation rate of protein was particularity higher in the extract of Sargassum confusum ana the lowest was makted from the extract of Sargassum thunbergii.

An efficient production method of spirulina extract was developed by enzymatic treatment using proteolytic enzymes. The suitable dosage of Tunicase, a cell lytic enzyme, was used to be 2.0% (w/w). To maximize solid recovery and spirulina extraction (SE) index, which indicates nucleic acid-related substances content, the dosage of Alcalase, commercially available pretense, was found to be 1.0% (w/w). By simultaneous treatments using optimal dosages of Tunicase and Alcalase, the highest SE index and solid recovery were obtained. The SE index and solid recovery of simultaneous treatments were notably enhanced by 100% ($11.4%\;{\rightarrow}\;22.8%$) and 56% ($45.2%\;{\rightarrow}\;70.7%$), respectively, than those of the non-treated extracts.

In this study, proteolytic enzymatic treatment conditions for Korean red ginseng were examined to increase the extraction yield. Commercially available proteases were screened to obtain high protein and carbohydrate yield. The optimal dosage and reaction time for Alcalase, the chosen protease, were found to be 2.0% (w/w) and 1.5 h, respectively. Treatment with optimal conditions of Alcalase increased solid yield, total phenolic content and gensenosides content by 57.6, 81.8, and 33.8%, respectively, over levels in non-treated Korean red ginseng. Antioxidative activities evaluated by free radical scavenging activity, cation radical scavenging activity and reducing power were exactly similar between Alcalase-treated and non-treated extracts.
