Dextransucrase hyper-producing Leuconostoc mesenteroides B-512FMCM and dextransucrase constitutive mutants B-742CB and B-1355C catalyzed the transfer of glucose from sucrose to other carbohydrates which were present or were added to the reaction digests. When the acceptor was a maltose, gentiobiose, lactose or raffinose, there was produced a series of oligosaccharide acceptor products or single product based on the kinds of enzymes and reaction conditions. To obtain the quantitative information about the yield and the distribution of acceptor products and dextran two experimental parameters were studied: a) the ratio of acceptor to sucrose and b) the amount of enzyme at constant carbohydrate concentration (100 mM). As the amount of enzyme increased, the synthesis of acceptor products (of maltose or gentiobiose) increased, and the formation of dextran decreased. As the ratio of acceptor to sucrose increased, the amount of dextran and the number of acceptor-products decreased and the amount of acceptor-products increased. When maltose or gentiobiose was an acceptor, the glucose from sucrose was transferred to the C-6 hydroxyl group of the nonreducing-end glucose residue of accepters to give a homologous series of isomaltosyl dextrins. In case of lactose or raffinose, there was produced only one acceptor product from B-512FMCM dextransucrase reaction. In the lactose acceptor reaction, the glucose from sucrose was transferred to the C-2 hydroxyl of the reducing end glucose residue of lactose. To get a series of oligosaccharides from lactose or raffinose acceptor reaction we used B-742CB dextransucrase or B-1355C alternansucrase with 500 mM sucrose in reaction digest.

To develop the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) for the detection of type D simian retrovirus (SRV) infection, an oligonucleotide primer pair was designed to hybridize to the sequences within env gene of SRV subtype 1 (SRV-1). The 3' proximal env sequences annealing to the primers had been rather conserved among three different subtypes of SRV, SRV-1, SRV-2, and SRV-3 (Mason-Pfizer Monkey Virus: MPMV). The PCR using the primer pair targeting an env region successfully detected and amplified all three subtypes of SRV with excellent specificity after single round of reaction. The tests with peripheral blood mononuclear cells infected either with simian immunodeficiency virus or simian T-Iymphotropic virus type 1, major immunosuppressive viral agents together with SRV in simian, verified the specificity of the PCR by excluding any cross reactivity. Semiquantitative titration PCR, amplifying serially diluted plasmid DNA of each subtype, was performed to evaluate sensitivity limits of the reaction. Based on molecular weight of each cloned SRV genome, the PCR should be able to detect one SRV-infected cell per more than $5-7{\times}10^4$ uninfected cells after simple ethidium bromide staining of resulting products. The PCR must be very efficient screening system with its quickness, certainty, and sensitivity for SRV-infected animals used in human AIDS research model. Second round amplification of the reaction products from the first PCR, or Southern hybridization by radiolabeled probes shall render to compete its efficacy to ELISA which has been the most sensitive technique to screen SRV infection but with frequent ambiguity problem.

The fiber-optic biosensor using enzyme-immobilized Langmuir-Blodgett film is developed fort the measurement of ethanol. The enzyme, alcohol dehydrogenase, is immobilized at the molecular level on the arachidic acid monolayer using Langmuir-Blodgett film technique. Based on the ordered multisubstrate mechanism, the immobilized enzyme kinetics is investigated. The optical sensing system is proposed, and sensor signal is proportional to ethanol concentration and is related wish the number of enzyme layers. As the number of deposited LB film layer increases up to 20 1ayers, the high ethanol concentration of 45mM can be measured without the saturation of signal. Surface pressure-area isotherm is measured for the three-different charged-lipids. Arachidic acid is the most suitable for the adsorption of alcohol dehydrogenase based on electrostatic force.

Like vertebrates, insects synthesize various eicosanoids after the committed catalytic step of phospholipase A₂ (PLA₂). However, the subsequent biosynthetic steps exhibit some deviation from those of vertebrates. Due to little composition of arachidonic acid in insect phospholipids, PLA₂ releases linoleic acid, which is another polyunsaturated fatty acid and relatively rich in insect phospholipids, to synthesize arachidonic acid via chain extension and desaturation. Resulting arachidonic acid is then oxygenated into a prostaglandin (PG), PGH₂, by a specific peroxidase called peroxynectin, but not by cyclooxygenase. PGH₂ is then isomerized to various PGs such as PGA₂, PGD₂, PGE₂, PGI₂, and a thromboxane (TXB₂). All four epoxyeicosatrienoic acids such as 5,6-EET, 8,9-EET, 11,12-EET, and 14,15-EET are also synthesized from arachidonic acid by oxygenation of vertebrate types of monooxygenases. However, the other type of eicosanoids called leukotrienes are found in insect tissues but their synthetic pathway is unclear. Eicosanoids mediate various insect physiological processes such as metabolism, excretion, immunity, and reproduction. Thus, identification of novel compounds interrupting eicosanoid biosynthesis would be a novel approach to develop insecticides. This review focuses on PGs and their immune mediation.

동맥경화의 재발생 위치는 속도와 전단응력 등과 같은 혈류역학의 인자들의 영향을 많이 받는 혈관형태를 가진 영역이다. 이러한 결과는 관상동맥에 동맥경화의 발생빈도를 조사한 결과와 일치하고 있으며, 즉 좌전 하행지, 회선지, 및 우관동맥 등의 동맥경화성 병변 발생빈도에서 좌전하행지가 가장 많은 빈도를 나타낸다. 따라서 동맥경화의 발생 및 재형성은 혈관의 동맥경화성 위험지역의 형태적 특징, 즉, 분지부의 위치, 길이, 각도의 변화 등에 따라 달라질 수 있음을 시사한다. 동일한 관상동맥이더라도 동맥경화의 발생이 용이한 형태가 있는데, 혈관의 형태학적 특성에 따란 혈류역학적 특성이 달라지고 동맥경화가 발생할 수 있는 가능성이나 진행과정이 차이가 날 수 있음을 말한다. 특히 임계치를 넘는 고전단응력은 혈관내피세포를 파괴하거나 손상을 주며, 반대로 임계치 미만의 저전단응력은 혈류의 정체시간을 길게 하여 양쪽 모두 동맥경화성 생물학적 반응을 유발 할 수 있며, 고전단응력과 저전단응력의 빈번한 맥동성 변화작용으로 혈관이 손상될 수 있는 한계범위를 넘어서게 될 때 내피세포의 방어체계를 파괴시키거나 혈관성형술후의 신내포세포 형성과정에서 생물학적 활성반응을 촉진하게 되는 환경을 제공하게 되어 동맥경화를 촉진한다고 할 수 있다. 즉 임계치 이상의 고전단응력이 나타나는 형태와 입구경계조건이 발생되면 내피세포 손상에 따른 혈전 현상의 발생가능성이 높아지며, 임계치 미만의 저전단응력이 발생되면 동맥경화성 죽상반 재형성에 영향을 미치게 한다. 결론적으로 동맥경화의 재발생의 기전은 변형된 혈관의 형태학적인 차이와 위치에 따라 서로 다른 혈류역학적 유발할 수 있는 물리적 환경을 제공하는 데에서 출발한다고 할 수 있다.$8.0{\sim}8.3$으로 알카리 쪽으로 이동하였다. 파일롯트 규모로 본 고정화 효소 충전탑(내경 30cm, 높이 85cm)에 의한 이성화당의 생산을 시도하였던바, 고정화 효소(350 IXIU/ml-R) 1리터가 30일동안에 약 293리터의 이성화당을 생산할 수 있는 것으로 나타났다.l plane에서 선수군(選手群)이 $62.7{\pm}7.36^{\circ}$로서 비선수군(非選手群)과 별(別) 차이(差異)가 없었고, horizontalplane에서는 선수군(選手群)이 $-23.5{\pm}7.2^{\circ}$로서 비선수군(非選手群)의 $-38.8{\pm}8.2^{\circ}$에 비(比)해 유의(有意)하게 높았으며 운동후(運動後) 양군(兩群) 모두 유의(有意)하게 높았다.

For the removal of raffinose and stachyose related to flatulence in soybean, ${\alpha}-Galactosidase$ activity of six commercial enzyme preparations was compared and their enzymatic characteristics were investigated. Among the tested enzymes, one product from Aspergillus niger was shown to be the most potent in ${\alpha}-Galactosidase$ activity. The enzyme characteristics of the selected preparation were shown to be pH 4.0-4.5 for optimum activity, pH 4-5 for optimum stability and $45^{\circ}C$ for optimum activity. Upon reaction on a synthetic substrate, $p-nitrophenyl-{\alpha}-D-galactoside$, Michaelis constant was 2.08 mM and maximum velocity was 435 micromoles of substrate/minute/g enzyme preparation. The enzyme was proved to be essential for SH group for its activity and capable of hydrolyzing raffinose, sucrose and $p-nitrophenyl-{\alpha}-D-galactoside$ almost completely. Thin-layer chromatographic analysis exhibited that the enzyme treatments of raffinose and stachyose were resulted to produce only monosaccharides in 2 hours of hydrolysis. It was, therefore, assumed that the flatulence factor in soybean foods can be easily removed by the use of enzymes showing ${\alpha}-Galactosidase$ activity.

The esterification of Ac-Tyr-OH was carried out in one-phase system containing ethanol by ${\alpha}$-chymotrypsin. The results of the esterification reaction are as follows. Chitin-${\alpha}$-chymotrypsin complex was found to be an effective catalyst for the esterlfication of Ac-Tyr-OH in ethanol organic solvent. The optimal conditions for the esterification were chitn/${\alpha}$-chymotrypsin ratio, 20(w/w); reaction temp., $35^{\circ}C$; reaction pH, 8.0; reaction time, 24 hrs. Also, addition of chitin in water/water-miscible organic solvent was effective for the stability of the enzyme. The esterification yield, Km and Vmax under optimal conditions were 93%, 3.093mM and 1.088mM/mg/hr, respectively.
