The DPB11 gene, which genetically interacts with DNA polymerase II ($\varepsilon$) encoded by POL2 and DPB2, is required for DNA replication and the S phase checkpoint in Saccharomyces cerevusiae. The transcripts of DPB11 did not fluctuated as evidently as DPB2 and POL2 genes during cell cycle. To identify the physical interaction between Dpb2 and Dpb11, we examined the interaction by two-hybrid system. The interaction between Dpb2 and Dpb11 was detected in a two-hybrid assay. These results suggest that the amount of the Dpb2-Dpb11 complex may peak at the G1/S boundary. Therefore, we strongly suggest the involvement of the Dpb2-Dpb11 complex in a progression of DNA replication and S-phase checkpoint.

In this study, PVF11 was selected among 20 candidate pathogenesis-related genes in Burkholderia glumae based on its effect on virulence to rice. PVF11 was found to interact with several plant defense-related WRKY proteins as evidenced through yeast-two hybrid analysis (Y2H). Moreover, PVF11 showed interactions with abiotic and biotic stress response-related rice proteins, as shown by genome-wide Y2H screening employing PVF11 and a cDNA library from B. glumae-infected rice. To confirm the effect of PVF11 on B. glumae virulence, in planta assays were conducted at different stages of rice growth. As a result, a PVF11-defective mutant showed reduced virulence in rice seedlings and stems but not in rice panicles, indicating that PVF11 involvement in B. glumae virulence in rice is stage-dependent.

Not much is known about the membrane trafficking of TRPV1, a key player in pain transduction. Rab11-FIP3, which plays a role in various intracellular transportation pathways, has been reported to interact with TRPV1. In this study, in order to examine the role of Rab11-FIP3 in the membrane trafficking of TRPV1, Rab11-FIP3 expression in dorsal root ganglion (DRG) was inhibited using a siRNA technique. Transportation of TRPV1 to membranes was found to decrease when Rab11-FIP3 expression was inhibited, consistent with the results obtained with TRPV1-transfected HEK cells. Taken together, these results indicate that Rab11-FIP3 plays a role in the membrane trafficking of TRPV1.

A regioselective perparation of 10-methoxy-11-hydroxyaporphine ("Apocodeine, 1b") form (R, S)-10, 11-dihydroxyaporphine(apomorphine, 1a) is described. The isopropylidene ketal ring of 10, 11-(isopropylidenyldioxy) aporphine (2) obtained by the isopropylidenation of apomorphine, was regioselectively opened by the ten equivalent of timethylaluminum to give 100-hydroxy-11-t-butyloxyaporphine (3). The free 10-hydroxyl position of 3 was methylated with methyl p-toluenesulfonate/NaH, and afforded 10-methoxy-11-t-butyloxyaporphine (4) in high yield. Selective debutylation gave the desired 10-methoxy-11-hydroxyaporphine("apocodeine", 1b) in good yield.

식물에서, 칼슘-의존적 단백질 카이네즈(CDPKs)는 $Ca^{2+}$ 신호전달에서 중요한 $Ca^{2+}$ 수용체이다. 벼(Oryza sativa L.)의 CDPKs인 3개의 OsCPKs는 생물정보에 대한 분석이 이루어졌으나, OsCPK11 유전자는 연구가 완전히 수행되지 않았다. 다양한 조직에서 OsCPK11 유전자가 전사수준에서 발현한다는 것은 알려져 있으나, 단백질 수준에서 발현과 생화학적인 특징은 잘 알려져 있지 않다. 이 연구는 OsCPK11의 몇 가지 생화학적 특징을 알아보기 위해 이루어졌다. 먼저 in vitro에서 E. coli를 이용하여 GST-OsCPK11를 발현시키고, 카이네즈 활성 측정과 칼슘-의존적 단백질 카이네즈로서 OsCPK11의 생화학적 분석도 수행하였다. OsCPK11은 스스로 자가인산화하며, $Ca^{2+}$의 존재 하에서 기질로서 histone III-s와 MBP로 인산기 전달 작용을 수행한다. 재조합 OsCPK11의 활성은 $Mg^{2+}$에 의해 영향을 받으며, pH 7.0-7.5에서 최적의 활성을 보인다. 또한 OsCPK11의 활성은 높은 수준의 $Ca^{2+}$가 존재하는 조건에서는 $Mg^{2+}$, $Mn^{2+}$, $Na^+$의 영향을 받지 않는다. 또한 OsCPK11의 자가인산화는 OsCPK11의 $Ca^{2+}$ 민감도를 감소시키는 것으로 밝혀졌다. 마지막으로, OsCPK11의 N-말단 다양화 지역으로 토끼 항체를 만들었고, immunoblot을 기초로 polyclonal antibody는 95.5 kD의 GST-OsCPK11를 인식하는 것으로 나타났다. 이 결과는 벼의 $Ca^{2+}$ 매개 신호전달에서 OsCPK11의 기능을 더 잘 이해하는데 도움을 줄 것이며, 심화 연구를 위해 다양한 OsCPKs의 단백질 정보를 결정하는 것이 필요할 것이다.

A bacterial strain, labeled $UR11^T$, was isolated from green alga Ulva pertusa collected from Jeju Island, Korea. $UR11^T$ was identified as a gram-negative, rod-shaped, motile by gliding and aerobic bacterial strain with yellow colonies on R2A plates. The strain $UR11^T$ grew over at a temperature range of $10^{\circ}C$ to $30^{\circ}C$ (optimally at $25^{\circ}C$), a pH range of 6.0-11 (optimally at pH 7.0) and a Nacl range of 0.5-5% Nacl (w/v). Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences revealed that strain $UR11^T$ was a member of the genus Flavobacterium. Strain $UR11^T$ shared close similarity with F. jejuensis $EC11^T$ (98.0%) F. jumunjinense $HME7102^T$ (96.1%), F. haoranii $LQY-7^T$ (95.3%), F. dongtanense $LW30^T$ (95.1%), and F. ahnfeltiae 10Alg $130^T$(94.9%). The major fatty acids (>5%) were $iso-C_{15:0}$ (33.9%), $iso-C_{15:1}$ G (12.4%), $iso-C_{17:0}$ 3-OH (9.0%), $isoC_{16:0}$ (7.0%) and $iso-C_{15:0}$ 3-OH (6.3%). The major polar lipids were phosphatidylethanolamine, seven unknown aminolipids, two unknown aminopolarlipids and two unknown lipids. DNA-DNA hybridization value was 58% at strain $UR11^T$ with F. jejuensis $EC11^T$. Based on phenotypic, chemotaxonomic and phylogenetic evidence, strain $UR11^T$ represents a novel species of the genus Flavobacterium, for which the name Flavobacterium jocheonensis sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is Flavobacterium jocheonensis is $UR11^T$ (=KCTC $52377^T$ =JCM $31512^T$).

Only one natural promoter that interacts with bacteriophage K11 RNA polymerase has so far been identified. To identify more, in the present study restriction fragments of the phage genome were individually assayed for transcription activity in vitro. The K11 genome was digested with two 4-bp-recognizing restriction enzymes, and the fragments cloned in pUC119 were assayed with purified K11 RNA polymerase. Eight K11 promoter-bearing fragments were isolated and sequenced. We report that the nine K11 promoter sequences (including the one previously identified) were highly homologous from -17 to +4, relative to the initiation site at +1. Interestingly, five had -10G and -8A, while the other four had -10A and -8C. The consensus sequences with the natural -10G/-8A and -10A/-8C, and their variants with -10G/-8C and -10A/-8A, showed nearly equal transcription activity, suggesting residues at -10 and -8 do not regulate promoter activity. Using hybridization methods, physical positions of the cloned promoter-bearing sequences were mapped on SalI-and KpnI-restriction maps of the K11 genome. The flanking sequences of six cloned K11 promoters were found to be orthologous with T7 or T3 genomic sequences.

Cytochrome P450 4A11 (CYP4A11) is a fatty acid hydroxylase enzyme expressed in human liver. It catalyzes not only the hydroxylation of saturated and unsaturated fatty acids, but the conversion of arachidonic acid to 20-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid (20-HETE), a regulator of blood pressure. In this study, we performed a directed evolution analysis of CYP4A11 using the luminogenic assay system. A random mutant library of CYP4A11, in which mutations were made throughout the entire coding region, was screened with luciferase activity to detect the demethylation of luciferin-4A (2-[6-methoxyquinolin-2-yl]-4,5-dihydrothiazole-4-carboxylic acid) of CYP4A11 mutants in Escherichia coli. Consecutive rounds of random mutagenesis and screening yielded three improved CYP4A11 mutants, CP2600 (A24T/T263A), CP2601 (T263A), and CP2616 (A24T/T263A/V430E) with ~3-fold increase in whole cells and >10-fold increase in purified proteins on the luminescence assay. However, the steady state kinetic analysis for lauric acid hydroxylation showed the significant reductions in enzymatic activities in all three mutants. A mutant, CP2600, showed a 51% decrease in catalytic efficiency ($k_{cat}/K_m$) for lauric acid hydroxylation mainly due to an increase in $K_m$. CP2601 and CP2616 showed much greater reductions (>75%) in the catalytic efficiency due to both a decrease in $k_{cat}$ and an increase in Km. These decreased catalytic activities of CP2601 and CP2616 can be partially attributed to the changes in substrate affinities. These results suggest that the enzymatic activities of CYP4A11 mutants selected from directed evolution using a luminogenic P450 substrate may not demonstrate a direct correlation with the hydroxylation activities of lauric acid.
