콩의 기능성을 보다 효율적으로 이용할 목적으로 청국장을 제조할 때 콩을 약간 발아시켜 제조한 두아청국장의 개발 조건을 검토하였다. 흑두의 침지조건은 3시간 침지 후 2시간 물빼기를 3회 반복한 시험구에서 발아 12시간째에 50%, 발아 24시간째에는 80% 정도의 높은 발아율을 나타내었다. 흑두의 발아온도를 검토한 결과 $10^{\circ}C$의 저온이나 $25^{\circ}C$의 고온보다 $18^{\circ}C$의 상온이 적당하였다. 발아 콩의 일반성분을 검토한 결과 조단백과 조지방은 발아가 진행됨에 따라 그 함량이 약간 감소하였으나 조회분은 $5.3{\sim}5.8%$, 조섬유는 $9.5{\sim}10.4%$로 대조구와 거의 비슷한 함량을 나타났다. 발아 콩의 효소활성을 측정한 결과 protease의 활성은 싹이 성장함에 따라 그 활성이 약간 낮아졌으나 glucoamylase활성은 증가 하였으며, ${\beta}$-glucosidase활성은 싹 길이에 크게 영향을 받지 않는 것으로 나타났다. 그러나 isoflavone 함량은 싹의 길이가 20 mm일 때는 약 260 ${\mu}g$/g으로 급격하게 증가하여 대조구보다 약 2배 높은 함량을 나타내었다. 두아청국장의 기호도를 평가한 결과 청국장의 색깔 및 점질물 생성은 전통청국장과 거의 차이가 없었지만 청국장 고유의 불쾌취는 오히려 두아청국장에서 적게 발생하는 것으로 나타났다. 그리고 두아청국장으로 찌게를 만들어 실시한 관능검사에서도 거의유사한 결과를 나타내었다.

Purpose: Glycogen storage disease type III (GSD-III), is a rare autosomal recessive disorder of glycogen metabolism. The affected enzyme is amylo-1,6-glucosidase, 4-alpha-glucanotransferase (AGL, glycogen debranching enzyme), which is responsible for the debranching of the glycogen molecule during catabolism. The disease has been demonstrated to show clinical and biochemical heterogeneity, reflecting the genotype-phenotype heterogeneity among different patients. In this study, we analyzed mutations of the AGL gene in three unrelated Korean GSD-III patients and discussed their clinical and laboratory implications. Methods: We studied three GSD-III patients and the clinical features were characterized. Sequence analysis of 35exons and part exon-intron boundaries of the AGLgene in patients were carried out by direct DNA sequencing method using genomic DNA isolated from patients' peripheral leukocytes. Results: The clinical features included hepatomegaly (in all patients), seizures (in patient 2), growth failure (in patients 1), hyperlipidemia (in patients 1 and 3), raised transaminases and creatinine kinase concentrations (in all patients) and mild EKG abnormalities (in patients 2). Liver transplantation was performed in patient 2due to progressive hepatic fibrosis. Administration of raw-corn-starch could maintain normoglycemia and improve the condition. DNA sequence analysis revealed mutations in 5 out of 6 alleles. Patient 1 was a compound heterozygote of c.1282 G>A (p.R428K) and c.1306delA (p.S603PfsX6), patient 2 with c.1510_1511insT (p.Y504LfsX10), and patient 3 with c.3416 T>C (p.L1139P) and c.l735+1 G>T (Y538_R578delfsX4) mutations. Except R428K mutation, 4 other mutations identified in3 patients were novel. Conclusion: GSD-III patients have variable phenotypic characteristics resembling GSD-Ia. The molecular defects in the AGL gene of Korean GSD-III patients were genetically heterogeneous.

젓갈에서 분리한 효모를 이용하여 아로니아의 탄닌 성분 저감화에 대해 조사하였다. TLC 실험을 통하여 최종 선별된 MTY2 균주는 18S rDNA sequence에 의해 Kazachstania servazzii으로 동정되어 K. servazzii MTY2로 명명하였다. K. servazzii MTY2의 생육은 배양 3시간 이후부터 급격하게 증가하였으며, 9시간에 최대 증식을 나타내었다. 또한, 균체가 증식됨에 따라 pH는 6에서 5까지 감소하였다. 5% 아로니아 추출물을 첨가했을 때 K. servazzii MTY2의 최적 발효조건을 실험한 결과, 탄소원 경우 glucose 10% (w/v) 첨가 시 균체의 생육이 가장 높았으며, 10% (w/v) glucose 고정으로 질소원 실험 결과 3% (w/v) tryptone 첨가 시 균체 생육이 높았다. 마지막으로 glucose 10% (w/v)와 tryptone 3% (w/v)를 고정으로 하고 무기염류 실험 결과 sodium chloride 0.1% (w/v)를 첨가했을 때 가장 높은 균체 생육을 보였다. 또한 탄소원, 질소원, 무기염류 각각의 균체 생장이 가장 잘된 배양액을 수포화-n-butanol로 추출, 농축하여 HPLC 분석을 한 결과 (+)-catechin peak는 모든 조건에서 꾸준히 존재하였지만, (-)-epicatechin peak는 glucose 10% (w/v) 첨가의 조건으로 배양할 시 검출되지 않았다. 따라서, K. servazzii MTY2을 glucose 10% (w/v) 첨가의 조건으로 아로니아와 함께 발효시킬 경우, 탄닌 성분의 저감화가 가능할 것으로 판단하였다. 따라서 탄닌 성분의 저감화를 통해 특유의 떫은맛을 감소시킨 아로니아를 식용 혹은 식품의 2차 가공물의 재료로 용이하게 이용할 수 있을 것으로 생각한다.

In this study, the bioactivities of ethanol (EELS) and water extract (WELS) from the leaf of Lythrum salicaria L. were investigated. In the anti-cancer activity, the growths of both human prostate cancer (DU145) and human colonic carcinoma cell (HT29) were inhibited up 60% by adding 10 mg/$m{\ell}$ of EELS. Anti-inflammatory activity of EELS and WELS have been evaluated on lipopolysaccharide (LPS) induced release of nitric oxide (NO) by the macrophage RAW 264.7 cells. EELS and WELS inhibited inflammatory by 57.3 and 46.9% in 10 mg/$m{\ell}$, respectively. In the anti-oxidative activity, $IC_{50}$ of DPPH radical scavenging activity was respectively 60.71 and $92.90\;{\mu}g/m{\ell}$ by EELS and WELS. In the anti-diabetic activity, $IC_{50}$ of ${\alpha}$-amylase inhibitory activity of EELS and WELS were respectively 5,250 and $5,020\;{\mu}g/m{\ell}$. $IC_{50}$ of ${\alpha}$-glucosidase inhibitory activity was 7.96 and $68.41\;{\mu}g/m{\ell}$ by EELS and WELS. In the anti-obesity, $IC_{50}$ of lipase inhibitory activity was 880 and $9,840\;{\mu}g/m{\ell}$ by EELS and WELS. Finally, EELS and WELS exhibited anti-oxidative, anti-inflammatory, anti-diabetic activity and anti-obesity. It suggests that Lythrum salicaria L. could be potentially used as a resource of bioactive materials for health functional foods.

In this paper, the kinetics of a cloned special glucosidase, named ginsenosidase type III hydrolyzing 3-O-glucoside of multi-protopanaxadiol (PPD)-type ginsenosides, were investigated. The gene (bgpA) encoding this enzyme was cloned from a Terrabacter ginsenosidimutans strain and then expressed in E. coli cells. Ginsenosidase type III was able to hydrolyze 3-O-glucoside of multi-PPD-type ginsenosides. For instance, it was able to hydrolyze the 3-O-${\beta}$-D-(1${\rightarrow}$2)-glucopyranosyl of Rb1 to gypenoside XVII, and then to further hydrolyze the 3-O-${\beta}$-D-glucopyranosyl of gypenoside XVII to gypenoside LXXV. Similarly, the enzyme could hydrolyze the glucopyranosyls linked to the 3-O-position of Rb2, Rc, Rd, Rb3, and Rg3. With a larger enzyme reaction $K_m$ value, there was a slower enzyme reaction speed; and the larger the enzyme reaction $V_{max}$ value, the faster the enzyme reaction speed was. The $K_m$ values from small to large were 3.85 mM for Rc, 4.08 mM for Rb1, 8.85 mM for Rb3, 9.09 mM for Rb2, 9.70 mM for Rg3(S), 11.4 mM for Rd and 12.9 mM for F2; and $V_{max}$ value from large to small was 23.2 mM/h for Rc, 16.6 mM/h for Rb1, 14.6 mM/h for Rb3, 14.3 mM/h for Rb2, 1.81mM/h for Rg3(S), 1.40 mM/h for Rd, and 0.41 mM/h for F2. According to the $V_{max}$ and $K_m$ values of the ginsenosidase type III, the hydrolysis speed of these substrates by the enzyme was Rc>Rb1>Rb3>Rb2>Rg3(S)>Rd>F2 in order.

A Gram-negative, strictly aerobic, non-motile, non-spore-forming, and rod-shaped bacterial strain designated FW-$6^T$ was isolated from a freshwater sample and its taxonomic position was investigated by using a polyphasic approach. Strain FW-$6^T$ grew optimally at $10-42^{\circ}C$ and at pH 7.0 on nutrient and R2A agar. Strain FW-$6^T$ displayed ${\beta}$-glucosidase activity that was responsible for its ability to transform ginsenoside $Rb_1$ (one of the dominant active components of ginseng) to Rd. On the basis of 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity, strain FW-$6^T$ was shown to belong to the family Sphingomonadaceae and was related to Novosphingobium aromaticivorans DSM $12444^T$ (98.1% sequence similarity) and N. subterraneum IFO $16086^T$ (98.0%). The G+C content of the genomic DNA was 64.4%. The major menaquinone was Q-10 and the major fatty acids were summed feature 7 (comprising $C_{18:1}{\omega}9c/{\omega}12t/{\omega}7c$), summed feature 4 (comprising $C_{16:1}{\omega}7c/iso-C_{15:0}2OH$), $C_{16:0}$, and $C_{14:0}$ 2OH. DNA and chemotaxonomic data supported the affiliation of strain FW-$6^T$ to the genus Novosphingobium. Strain FW-$6^T$ could be differentiated genotypically and phenotypically from the recognized species of the genus Novosphingobium. The isolate that has ginsenoside converting ability therefore represents a novel species, for which the name Novosphingobium ginsenosidimutans sp. nov. is proposed, with the type strain FW-$6^T$ (= KACC $16615^T$ = JCM $18202^T$).

Background: Soil microorganisms play key roles in nutrient cycling and are distributed throughout the soil profile. Currently, there is little information about the characteristics of the microbial communities along the soil depth because most studies focus on microorganisms inhabiting the soil surface. To better understand the functions and composition of microbial communities and the biogeochemical factors that shape them at different soil depths, we analyzed microbial activities and bacterial and fungal community composition in soils up to a 120 cm depth at a fallow field located in central Korea. To examine the vertical difference of microbial activities and community composition, ${\beta}$-1,4-glucosidase, cellobiohydrolase, ${\beta}$-1,4-xylosidase, ${\beta}$-1,4-N-acetylglucosaminidase, and acid phosphatase activities were analyzed and barcoded pyrosequencing of 16S rRNA genes (bacteria) and internal transcribed spacer region (fungi) was conducted. Results: The activity of all the soil enzymes analyzed, along with soil C concentration, declined with soil depth. For example, acid phosphatase activity was $125.9({\pm}5.7({\pm}1SE))$, $30.9({\pm}0.9)$, $15.7({\pm}0.6)$, $6.7({\pm}0.9)$, and $3.3({\pm}0.3)nmol\;g^{-1}\;h^{-1}$ at 0-15, 15-30, 30-60, 60-90, and 90-120 cm soil depths, respectively. Among the bacterial groups, the abundance of Proteobacteria (38.5, 23.2, 23.3, 26.1, and 17.5% at 0-15, 15-30, 30-60, 60-90, and 90-120 cm soil depths, respectively) and Firmicutes (12.8, 11.3, 8.6, 4.3, and 0.4% at 0-15, 15-30, 30-60, 60-90, and 90-120 cm soil depths, respectively) decreased with soil depth. On the other hand, the abundance of Ascomycota (51.2, 48.6, 65.7, 46.1, and 45.7% at 15, 30, 60, 90, and 120 cm depths, respectively), a dominant fungal group at this site, showed no clear trend along the soil profile. Conclusions: Our results show that soil C availability can determine soil enzyme activity at different soil depths and that bacterial communities have a clear trend along the soil depth at this study site. These metagenomics studies, along with other studies on microbial functions, are expected to enhance our understanding on the complexity of soil microbial communities and their relationship with biogeochemical factors.

김치 시료로부터 자동산화되지 않으며 열 및 중성 pH에서 안정한 AA 유도체인 AA-2G를 생산할 수 있는 당전이활성을 가진 CGTase 생산균주를 분리하였고, 분리균주의 형태학적, 배양학적, 생리학적 성질 및 16s-rDNA sequences를 조사한 결과 그람 양서의 간균으로 호기성이며 내생포자를 형성하는 전형적인 중온성 Bacillus sp. JK-43으로 동정되었다. Bacillus sp. JK-43의 CGTase는 AA-2G 뿐만 아니라 AA-6G로 추정되는 물질을 함께 생산하였으며, 효소 최적생산조건은 1.0% soluble starch, 1.0% yeast extract, 1.0% $Na_2CO_3\;0.1%\;K_2HPO_4,\;그리고\;0.02%\;MgSO_4{\cdot}7H_2O$가 함유된 배지에서 pH 7.0, $37^{\circ}C$에서 26시간 동안 진탕배양하였을 때였다. 각종 당공여채에 따른 Bacillus sp. JK-43의 AA-2G 생산성을 조사한 결과 ${\beta}-CD$에서 가장 높은 AA-2G 생산성을 보였으며, 식혜제도페액인 엿기름 및 밥당화액에서도 비교적 높은 AA-2G 생산성을 보였다. 또한 여러 가지 당수용체에 대한 JK-43의 CGTase의 당전이 반응을 검토한 결과 sucrose, mannitol 및 inositol에서 높은 당전이 수율인 70~90%를 나타내었다.
