The Wx protein, known as starch synthase or starch glucosyl transferase (E.C. 2.4.1.11), is responsible for the amylose synthesis. In an effort to explain the mechanism of amylose biosynthesis, the starch synthase known as Wx protein was identified by analyzing the various wx rice mutants with SDS-PAGE of proteins extracted from rice starch. Finally, the 66 kDa protein was purified by extracting the starch-bound protein fractions followed by Suprose 12 gel filtration chromatography.

Proteins in friable and compact calli of Viola patrinii DC. were analysed. The protein contents in friable calli were lower than those in compact calli. In suspension culture, it increased to the maximum after 3 weeks culture from inoculation and decreased after 4 weeks culture. Several strong lavel signals were detected with the SDS-PAGE analysis. The polypeptides of 28, 31 and 35 KD were observed from the friable cell culture, from the compact cell culture strong band of 30 KD was determined, indicating that these polypeptides may be the major protein occurring during their cultures. Changes in amino acid contents during culture of the viola suspension cells were investigated the amino acid contents were greatest between two and three weeks culture of the viola suspension cells.

This study was designed to determine the amino acid composition and to investigate microstructure by scanning electron micrographs of silkworm larvae protein and modified silkworm larvae protein concentrate. The results were as follows: 1, The protein contents of soybean and silkworm larvae protein concentrate were 70.3% and 84.1%, respectively. 2. In general, the essential amino acid content of silkworm larvae protein concentrate were higher than soybean protein concentrate as well as FAO provisional scoring pattern. Silkworm larvae protein concentrate was especially high in lysine and methionine indicating that it could be a good supplemental source for cereals and beans. Succinylation and acetylation resulted in no difference in most amino acid content. 3. The scanning electron microscopic observations revealed that silkworm larvae protein concentrate had smooth surface topography while defatted silkworm larvae flour showed different shapes and sizes with relatively rough surfaces. Acylated silkworm larvae protein concentrate exhibited less cellularity and denser than protein concentrate. However, succinylated silkworm larvae protein concentrate showed especially good texture indicating that it could increase the functional properties of silkworm larvae protein concentrate.

Soybean [$Glycine$ $max$ (L.) Merr.] protein is a high quality source for food and feed. But, antinutritional factors in the raw mature soybean are exist. Kunitz trypsin inhibitor (KTI) protein is a main antinutritional factor in soybean seed. Also, P34 protein, referred as $Gly$ $m$ Bd 30K, has been identified as a predominant immunodominant allergen. Genetic relationship between KTI protein and P34 protein could be useful in soybean breeding program for the genetic elimination or reduction of these factors. The objective of this study was to determine the independent inheritance or linkage between KTI protein and P34 protein in soybean seed. A total of 479 $F_2$ seeds were obtained from the cross of 07B1 and PI567476 parents. KTI protein and relative amount of P34 protein were analysed from $F_2$ seeds harvested from the F1 plants by using SDS-PAGE and Western blot analysis. The segregation ratios of 3 : 1 for KTI protein (353 KTI protein present : 126 KTI protein absent) and relative amount of P34 protein (363 normal amount of P34 protein : 116 low amount of P34 protein). The segregation ratio of 3 : 1 suggested that KTI protein and relative amount of P34 protein in mature soybean seed were controlled by a single major gene. The segregation ratios of 9 : 3 : 3 : 1 (266 KTI protein present, normal amount of P34 protein: 88 KTI protein present, low amount of P34 protein: 102 KTI protein absent, normal amount of P34 protein: 23 KTI protein absent, low amount of P34 protein) and Chi-square value (${\chi}^2$=3.31, P=0.346) were observed in $F_2$ seeds. This data showed that KTI protein was inherited independently with relative amount of P34 protein in soybean. These results will be helpful in breeding program for selecting the line with lacking KTI protein and reduced amount of P34 protein in soybean.

The protein content of seed meal were examined to evaluate genotypes of higher protein content from 164 peanut germplasms. The variations in amino acids content were investigated from nine Korean leading varieties grown at five locations. Amino acids contents of protein fractions were also ana lysed in the present study, too. The results of the study were summarized as fallows. The seed protein of 164 peanut varieties averaged 24.5% ranging from 19.5% to 28.7%, showed 9.2% varietal variation in proteins. Differences were not observed in protein content between plant types, however, protein contents were higher in small-seeded than large seeded varieties. The differences were more greater particulaly in Spanish type varieties. The varieties introduced from Taiwan and Philippine showed higher protein contents, and the cultivars or lines bred in Korea and introduced from Japan were lower in protein contents. protein contents showed non-significantly negative correlations with 100-kernel weight and pod weight per plant, but positive correlations were observed between oil and protein content in all types of peanuts. Significant differences among the varieties and locations were observed for total, essential and non-essential amino acids contents, and aspartic acid. Locational differences for arginine, lysine, methionine, threonine, glutamic acid, glycine and tyrosine, and varietal difference for phenylalanene were revealed as significant. The limiting amino acids from the leading varieties were isoleucine, methionine, threonine, alanine and tyrosine, comparing with FAO recommanding levels of amino acids. Among the protein fractions prolamins was the highest in total amino acids, but essential amino acids was the highest in globulins

Varietal difference of protein content in forty eight Korean recommended rice cultivars and environmental Variation in protein content of milled rice harvested at six sites of the middle and/or southern plain and four locations of mid-mountainous and/or alpine area in 1989 were investigated. Also, the composition of amino acid in milled rice was compared among three rice varieties: a high-protein japonica rice, Nongbaek, a high-protein Tongil-type rice, Yongjubyeo, and a low-protein japonica rice, Hwaseongbyeo. Korean recommended rice varieties showed 7.93% of average protein content with varietal variation from 5.5% to 10.2% for milled rice harvested in 1988, and 9.17% of mean protein content with the variation from 6.3% to 12.0% for milled rice harvested in 1989. Tongil-type rice was about 1% higher in protein content of milled rice than japonica. The low-protein japonica rice, Hwaseongbyeo exhibited lower content of essential amino acids per g of rice flour sample than the high-protein japoinica, Nongbaek and/or Tongil-type rice, Yongjubyeo, but the relative content of essential amino acids per 16.8g of nitrogen in milled rice of the former was not so different with those of the latters. Among amino acids the content of glutamic acid was highest and among essential amino acids the content of leucine was highest while methionine was lowest. The protein content of milled rice was negatively correlated with days from seeding to heading, K/Mg ratio, alkali digestion value(l-7) and amylose content, but it was positively correlated with translucency and magnesium content of milled rice. The protein content of milled rice harvested in the southern plain paddy field was about 1% higher compared with those harvested in the Middle plain. Also, the protein content of milled rice harvested in the southern mid-mountainous and alpine area was about 0.8% higher compared with those harvested in the resemble altitude area of the middle-northern part of Korea. The contribution of environmental variation to total in plain area was about 28.1% while that in mid-mountainous and alpine area was about 56.4%.

한우의 Myosin B 단백질을 단백질 가수분해 효소인 pepsin으로 처리한 다음 단백질의 함량과 혈압상승 펩티드 생성효소인 angiotensin-I converting enzyme(ACE)에 대한 저해활성을 측정하였다. 등심이 우둔에 비해 단백질의 함량이 높았으며, 가수분해 처리 후 우둔과 다르게 등심은 3시간 가수분해 처리구에서 단백질의 함량이 높게 나타났다. ACE 저해활성은 등심에서는 3시간, 우둔에서는 6시간동안 가수분해시켰을 때 ACE 저해율이 유의적으로 가장 높게 나타났으며, 3, 6시간동안 가수분해시켰을 경우 부위 별로 유의적인 차가 있었으나(p<0.05), 0, 1시간동안 가수분해 시켰을 때는 부위간의 유의적인 차는 없었다(p>0.05). ACE 저해율이 가장 좋은 가수분해 처리구를 ultrafiltration시킨 결과, 저분자 peptide 상태의 가수분해물이 고분자에 비하여 ACE 저해율이 높은 것으로 나타났다. 차후 ACE 억제활성도가 높은 단백질을 분리하여 가장 우수한 분획을 찾아 아미노산 염기서열을 밝혀 고혈압 억제제로 합성 개발하는 연구를 추진할 예정이다.
