단백질의 부분 가수분해는 산성 음료에서의 용해도 증가, 환자들의 소화력과 알러지 내성의 개선, 다른 기능적 특성의 개발 등을 위하여 식품산업에 널리 이용되고 있다. 그러나 우유 단백질이나 대두 단백질과 같은 몇 가지 단백질들은 가수분해에 의하여 강한 쓴맛을 형성한다, 단백질 가수분해물의 쓴맛에 관한 연구는 1950년대 초에 시작되었으며, 여러 가지 원료로부터 쓴맛물질이 분리되었다. 이들 단백질 가수분해물의 쓴맛 물질은 올리고펩타이드로 알려져 있으며, 펩타이드 분자를 구성하는 소수성 아미노산의 존재와 밀접한 관계가 있는 것으로 보고되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 최근에 발달된 분석기술과 생명공학적 기법으로 E. coli에서 생산한 콩 단백질 단일 subunit를 이용하여 효소적 가수분해물의 분자구조를 확인하고자 하였다. 탈지대두박으로부터 115 glycinin와 E.coli떼서 발현된 proglycinin을 각각 90%, 97%의 정제도로 분리하여 이들 단백질을 trypsin으로 각각 가수분해하였다. 115 glycinin은 효소/기질 비 3%에서 4시간 가수분해에 의해 $14.0{\times}10^{-5}$ M quinine-HCI equivalent의 강한 쓴맛을 나타내었으며, 12%의 가수분해도(DH)를 나타내었다. 대두 단백질의 쓴맛 성분을 확인 위하여 이미 아미노산 서열이 밝혀진 11S glycinin과 proglycinin 가수분해물에서 GP-HPLC, $C_{18}$ RP-HPLC 등을 통하여 쓴맛 peptide들을 분리하였다. 각각의 분획은 다시 21개의 peptide로 분리되어 그 서열이 결정되었으며 이중 RP와 GI는 이미 알려진 쓴맛 dipeptide였고, LAGNQEQE, SAEFG, NALPE, KLHENIAR, GMIYPG 등이 주된 쓴맛 Peptide로 확인되었다. 이들은 11S glycinin의 5개의 subunit 중에서 그 위치가 확인되었다. Proglycinin 가수분해물에서도 11S glycinin과 같은 방법으로 7개의 쓴맛 peptide가 분리되었다. 이들은 $A_{1a}B_{1b}$의 아미노산 서열 중에서 37-42, 103-110, 164-167, 323-327, 367-373의 위치에 분포하고 있었으며, NALKPD, IYPGCPST, SlDT, HNIGQT, NAMFVPH의 서열을 나타내었다. 분리된 쓴맛 peptide 중에서 가장 쓴 두 분회의 peptide를 합성하여 관능 검사한 결과, NALPE는 매우 쓴맛을 내는 peptide로 확인되었다.

Dill (Anethum graveolens L.) is an annual herb with a long history and it is mainly used as a spice and as a medicine that is effective as a digestive aid, a sedative, and a narcotic, and that helps remove bad breath. Dill grows wild in the districts along the shores of the Mediterranean Sea, West Asia, China, and Korea. An estimate of the phylogenetic relationships within dill accessions in 20 countries was inferred using data from the rps16-trnK3-intergenic spacer. The aligned data sets for dill ranged from 747 to 779 nucleotides (bp) as a result of the differences in the insert/delete nucleotides. The sequence variation within the dill accessions was mostly due to nucleotide substitutions, although several small insertions and deletions can be found. Among 100 accessions from 20 countries, the Eastern Asia accessions were more closely related to the North American accessions than to the Central Asia and European accessions. Although some accessions were not congruent completely with geographical locations, the dill accessions with rps16-trnK analysis resulted in plants with better-resolved clades.

This study was carried out to identify the phylogenetic relationship and to know the distribution of the entomopathogenic fungi by comparing the DNA sequences of internal transcribed spacer regions (ITS1 and ITS2) and 5.8S ribosomal DNA (rDNA) repeat unit. The entomopathogenic fungi had their specific sequences in ITS1 and 2 regions depending on species. The comparison of the ITS sequences of standard strains indicated that the sequences ITS1 were more variable than those of ITS2. It seems that Paecilomyces tenuipes, Isaria japonicus and P. japonicus are the same species but called as different names because of very similar sequences, and unidentified Paecilomyces sp. KACC 40220 and KACC 40656 showed identical sequences to P. tenuipes. Thirty six strains of the commercial products of entomopathogenic fungi used in this study were divided into four groups by the phylogenetic analysis based on 5.85 rDNA and ITS regions. We found twenty-three strains were P. tenuipes / japonica, eleven strains were C. militaris, and other two strains were Beauveria bassiana and C. multiaxialis, respectively.

We examined nrDNA ITS sequences from 16 taxa of Polygonum sect. Persicaria(Polygonaceae) in Korea to infer relationships among the taxa within the section. A neighbor-joining tree obtained from the analysis of the ITS sequences suggest that the ITS region was useful inferring the phylogenetic relationships among the taxa. The neighbor-joining tree indicates that P.amphibium is clearly separated from the other Korean taxa. The tree also reveals the presence of five major groups in the Korean taxa of the section; 1) P. lapathifolium var. lapathifolium, 2) P. persicaria and P. viscoferum, 3) P. orientale and P. viscosum, 4) P. japonicum and 5) a group including the remaining taxa. these relationships depicted on the ITS tree are largely congruent with those inferred from morphological and anatomical characters.

A genome contains all genetic information of an organism. Within a specific species, unique traits appear for each individual, which can be identified by analyzing nucleotide sequences. Many Genome-Wide Associations Studies have been carried out to find genetic associations and cause of diseases from slightly different base among the individuals. It is important to identify occurrence of slight variations for polymorphisms of individuals. In this paper, we introduce an analysis and visualization tool for specific variation pattern identification of polymorphisms in nucleotide sequences and show the validity of the tool by applying it to analyzing nucleotide sequences of subcultured pOka strain of varicella-zoster virus. The tool is expected to help efficiently explore allele frequency variations and genetic factors within a species.

Pseudomonas syringae pv. syringae strain WSPS007 was isolated from infected twigs (Malus pumila) in 2013 in Yeongju, Gyeongbuk Province, Republic of Korea. Here, we report the draft genome sequence of WSPS007 with a chromosome size of 6,238,498 bp (59.04% G+C content). The genome comprises 5,379 CDS, 16 rRNA genes, and 65 tRNA genes. The P. syringae pv. syringae strain WSPS007 genome possesses an ice-nucleating activation (INA) gene and an antifreeze operon that may be related to frost damage by this pathogen. Thus, the genome sequence determined in this study will be useful in understanding the relationship between the outbreak of bacterial shoot blight disease and frost damage in northern Gyeongbuk Province.

The most methods for intrusion detection are based on the misuse detection which accumulates hewn intrusion information and makes a decision of an attack against any behavior data. However it is very difficult to detect a new or modified aoack with only the collected patterns of attack behaviors. Therefore, if considering that the method of anomaly behavior detection actually has a high false detection rate, a new approach is required for very huge intrusion patterns based on sequence. The approach can improve a possibility for intrusion detection of known attacks as well as modified and unknown attacks in addition to the similarity measurement of intrusion patterns. This paper proposes a method which applies the multiple sequence alignments technique to the similarity matching of the sequence based intrusion patterns. It enables the statistical analysis of sequence patterns and can be implemented easily. Also, the method reduces the number of detection alerts and false detection for attacks according to the changes of a sequence size.

In this paper we define wage premium of college hierarchy as a wage differential among college graduates from different universities within the same graduate cohort and estimate the wage premium of college hierarchy for the three different cohorts: namely, 1982, 1992, and 2002. We utilize a unique data set called Education-Labor Market Lifetime Path Survey, which contains education and labor market information about the three different college graduate cohorts. We find that the wage premium of college hierarchy changes over time for the same cohort. It tends to large right after graduation but decrease with labor market experience. When the test score at the time of college entrance controlled, the wage premium of college hierarchy mostly disappears for the 1992 cohort. But for the 2002 cohort it remains seven years after graduation. The difference in the wage premium of college hierarchy can be explained, at least partly, by the number of colleges, college enrollment ratio, and the relation between college hierarchy and the entrance test score.

G protein-coupled receptors(GPCRs) family is a cell membrane protein, and plays an important role in a signaling mechanism which transmits external signals through cell membranes into cells. But, GPCRs each are known to have various complex control mechanisms and very unique signaling mechanisms. Structural features, and family and subfamily of GPCRs are well known by function. and accordingly, the most fundamental work in studies identifying the previous GPCRs is to classify the GPCRs with given protein sequences. Studies for classifying previously identified GPCRs more easily with mathematical models have been mainly going on. In this paper Considering that functions of proteins are determined by their stereoscopic structures, the present paper proposes a method to compare secondary structures of two GPCRs having different amino acid sequences, and then detect an unknown GPCRs assumed to have a same function in databases of previously identified GPCRs.
