조류는 발생학적 특성상 수정과 초기 배발생을 제외한 거의 대부분의 개체 발생 과정이 난각 속에서 진행된다. 또한 배자가 발생하는 동안 배자의 뼈를 구성하는 석회성분의 거의 대부분은 난각에서 유래한다. 난각 석회성분은 배자유래의 융모성 뇨막(chorioallantoic membrane; CAM)의 모세혈관을 통하여 배자로 이동하다. 배자 발생후기로 가면 융모성 뇨막은 전체 난각과 거의 대부분 밀착하여 배자 발생 후기에 필요한 많은 양의 석회성분을 난각에서 배자로 공급하게 된다. 그러므로 한 개의 난각 속에서 두 개의 배자가 정상적으로 발생되기란 거의 불가능하다.

We investigated effects of a topical treatment of methoprene(0.5-5.0$\mul$/egg), a juvenLle horm mane analogue, on embryo development in the gypsy moth, Lymantri$\alpha$ dispar. Methoprene lowered egg hatching rate, and also reduced the mean wet weights of hatched 1st instar larvae w with the most effect shown at the highest concentration. The differences in protein(p < 0.01) and carbohydrate(p < 0.05) contents between control and methoprene(5$\mul$/ egg) treatment g groups were observed during embryo development.

PBS soluble- and insoluble-extracts form silkworm eggs were analysed by native-PAGE and SDS-PAGE. During the embroyonic development, soluble proteins which are mainly composed of ESP, vitellin and 30K proteins showed similar degradation pattern in both electrophoretic analyses. Several peptides which seemed to be intermediated forms of yolk proteins were detected in latter part of embryogenesis, while a protein band newly appeared in one day elapsed after acid treatment. When insoluble extracts from silkworm eggs were analysed with SDS-PAGE, several peptides were detected at the later stages of the embryonic development, and newly hatched larvae. These peptides are considered to be structure proteins for embryonic morphogenesis.

Antheraea yamamai vitellin was purified from matured eggs by polyacryamide gel electrophoresis, also stage dependent appearance, immunological comparison and relative content of the protein were investigated. 1. Vitellogenin, the precursor of vitellin, was first detected in the larval hemolymph at the late spinning stage by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and immunoelectrophoresis. 2. The electrophoretic mobility of the vitellin was identical with that of Bombyx mori and of Bombyx mandarina. However, the specific antiserum against A. uamamai vitellin did not react with either that of Bombyx mori or Bombyx mandarina in immumo-diffusion test. 3. Relative content of A. yamamai vitellin to the total soluble egg protein was 46.0 percent and did not change till eight days after oviposition. But the content started to decline from ten days after oviposition and was negligible in the five or serventeen month old eggs.

This study was aimed for a development of a useful gene promoter which has a transcript expressional specificity in the early embryonic period of the silkworm, Bombyx mori. To select a useful gene expressed in the early embryonic stage, we constructed and analyzed a PCR-base subtraction cDNA library. In subtractive hybridization analysis, we confirmed four clones as differently expressed genes(BmNanos-like, BmNanos-P, BmNanos-O, BmVasa mRNAs). Northern hybridization and real time PCR results reveled that the BmNanos-like gene promoter is suitable for the silkworm transgenic vector system. Further defined studies on molecular functions and biological roles of their promoters will give us well-fined information and its application.

Embryonic developmental rates of the Oriental tobacco budworm, Heliothis assulta Guenee, were compared at various constant temperatures and 16 hours of light, and detailed embryogenesis was also studied at $25^{\circ}C$. The egg was nearly globular in form and had an average equatorial diameter of 0.53mm. A single micropyle was in the center of the circular area at the anterior pole of the egg. Durations of embryogenesis at 20, 25, 30, and $35^{\circ}C$ were 147, 81, 61, and 67hrs, respectively. Embryonic death was especially higher at $35^{\circ}C$ than any other temperatures investigated. Embryogenesis progressed with changes in color and pattern, which are quite characteristic at each developmental stage of the embryo. At $25^{\circ}C$, organogenesis began in 14hrs after oviposition, formation of gut completed in 44hrs and eclosion occurred in 80hrs. The embryo formed along the long axis at early developmental stage, moved towards the equatorial plane in 24hrs, and made a half-turn on the plane in 36hrs. In 40hrs, head was oriented to the anterior pole of the egg until eclosion.

Telomere란 진핵세포에 존재하는 DNA-protein 복합체로서 염색체의 말단부에 tandem repeated DNA 서열 (TTAGGG)과 특정 단백질로 구성되어 있으며 세포 분열이 진행함에 따라 이의 길이가 짧아지게 되고 일정 길이 이하가 되면 세포의 사망이 유발된다. 반면 telomerase는 ribonucleoprotein으로서 telomeric DNA의 합성에 관여하는 것으로 염색체의 말단에 telomeric DNA의 소실을 보충하는 역할로 알려져 있다. 최근 암, 노화 등과 관련하여 telomere 및 telomerase의 연구들이 활발히 진행되고 있으며, 다양한 세포들에 있어 이들의 존재와 역할에 대해서도 많은 연구들이 수행되고 있다. 포유동물의 초기 배자에 있어 telomere의 분포 양상과 telomerase의 activity의 분석은 배 발생의 기작과 배자의 세포적 특성을 구명하는데 매우 중요한 과제라 사료된다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 마우스의 초기 배 발생 단계별 수정란의 telomeric DNA의 분포 양상과 각 단계별 배자들의 telomerase activity를 제시하고자 하였다. 시험에 공시된 마우스는 4-6주령된 ICR계통으로 이들을 과배란 처리 후 자연 교배시켜 얻은 2-, 4-, 8-세포기배, 상실배 및 배반포배를 대상으로 하였다. Telomeric DNA의 양적 분석은 각 발생단계별 수정란의 표본을 제작하고 human telomere repeat probe를 이용하여 FISH (fluorescence in situ hybridization)를 시행하였으며, 분리된 할구들을 형광현미경으로 관찰 후 상을 포착하고 image analyser program (MataMorph, UIC, USA)을 이용하여 한 개의 세포내 telomere의 상대적 함량을 분석하였다. 발생 단계별 배자의 telomerase activity의 분석은 TRAP (telomeric repeat amplofication protocol) assay로 분석한 바 각 발생 단계별 30개의 수정란으로부터 핵 단백질을 추출하여 telomerase를 신장시키고 PCR을 시행한 후 15% PAGE gel loading하여 이의 activity를 확인하였다. 분석 결과, telomeric DNA의 함유율은 발생단계별 다소의 차이를 나타내었으며 telomerase activity는 모든 발생단계의 수정란에서 확인할 수 있었고, 특히 상실배부터 높게 나타남을 확인하였다.

The pattern of programmed cell death(PCD) has been examined during the early developmental period of development in mouse embryos, from embryonic day 4.5(E4.5) to E11.5 Embryos from Balb/c breedings were harvested at various embryonic stages between E4.5 and El1.5. Cell death was analysed by in situ terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase mediated dUTP nick end labeling(TUNEL) staining in tissue sections and whole embryos. At the blastocyst stage(E4.5), a very few apoptotic cells were found in the inner cell mass of the blastocyst. In the early egg cylinder stage(35.0-5.5), a few apoptotic cells were detected in the embryonic ectoderm, the embryonic endoerm and the proamniotic cavity. In the advanced egg cylinder stage(E5.5-6.5), TUNEL-posifive cells were observed in the extra-embryonic ectoderm and extra-embryonic endoderm as well as in the embryonic ectoderm, embryonic visceral endoderm and proamniotic cavity. In the streak stage(E6.75-7.75), many TUNEL-positive cells were found in the ectoplacental cone. In contrast, only very few apoptotic cells were found in the chorion and extra-embryonic endoderm in extra-embryonic regions. In intra-embryonic region, a few apoptotic cells were randomly found in the embryonic ectoderm, mesoderm and visceral endoderm. At the early somitogenesis stage(E8.0-8.5), most apoptotic cells were observed in the most cranial portion of neural fold (neural ectoderm and adjacent ectoderm). At the mid somitogenesis stage(39.0-9.5), the otic placode first showed TUNEL-positive at this stage. Small number of TUNEL-positive cells were also first seen around optic placode and branchial arches. Three streams of TUNEL-positive cells were clearly seen in the cranial region at 59.5-9.75. At E10.5, apoptotic cells were localized in the developing eye, the junctional portion of medial nasal, lateral nasal and maxillary processes, the lateral portion of branchial arches, the junction of bilateral mandibular processes, and apical ectodermal ridges of limb buds. At E11.5, apoptotic cells were noticeably decreased in most area, except the developing limbs and several somites in the tail region. In this study, the global temporospatial pattern of PCD throughout early development of mouse embryos was discussed. It may provide the basis for further studies on its role in the morphogenesis of the embryo.

This study was carried out to analyze the amount of telomeres and telomerase activity of several chicken cells. Telomere quantity and telomerase activity were analyzed during organ development, growth and aging in embryonic and adults chicken. Analyzed cells were whole embryos and the cells from brain, heart, liver, kidney, lymphocytes and germinal tissues in Korean Native Chicken. The amount of telomeric DNA was analyzed by quantitative fluorescence in situ hybridization (Q-FISH) techniques using a chicken telomere repeat probe. Telomerase activity was performed by Telomeric Repeat Amplification Protocol (TRAP) assay. In results, telomerase activity was highly detectable in early embryonic cells, germinal cells and kidney cells. Whereas the cells from brain, heart, and liver had gradually down-regulated pattern of telomerase activity. Analyzing the telomere quantities on chicken cells, the amount of telomeric DNA of most chicken cells gradually decreased as growth. From these results, the amount of telomeric DNA was directly affected by telomerase activity. Consequently the telomere quantity and telomerase activity are closely relate to cell differentiation and tissue specificity during developmental and growing stages.
