The polychaete Scolelepis (Scolelepis) sagittaria was originally described from Japanese waters and subsequently reported from Korean waters. In this study, we determined for the first time the mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI), 16S ribosomal DNA (16S rDNA), and nuclear 18S ribosomal DNA (18S rDNA) sequences of Korean specimens of S. (S.) sagittaria. We also assessed intraspecific variation in the shape of the prostomium of this species based on an examination of 247 individuals. All materials were collected from intertidal sandy beaches of the Korea Strait. The molecular data and morphological observations reported herein will contribute to gaining a better understanding of the taxonomic relationships among members of the genus Scolelepis.

동굴 내 정점별 세균 군집 구조를 분석하기 위하여 PCf amplified 16S rDNA denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis(DGGE)를 적용하였다. DGGE는 동일한 분자량을 갖는 dsDNA band라고 할지라도, 각각의 염기서열 차이에 따라 전기영동 상에서 고유한 band양상을 나타낼 수 있다. eubacteria의 16S rDNA V3region을 증폭하기 위해 GC341F와 PRUN518r을 primer로 사용하여 지하수내에 미생물 군집의 다양성과 유사성을 분석하였다. DGGE band 양상을 통해 동굴내의 세균 군집 구조는 외부 환경에 비해 상대적으로 종다양성이 낮으며 동굴내 에서 특이적으로 서식하는 종이 있음을 확인하였다. 또한 유기 영양물질의 공급이 제한되어 있는 동굴에서 구아노가 주요 유기 영양물질의 공급원으로서 큰 영향을 미치고 있는 것으로 파악되었다. DGGE 상의 일부 band의 염기서열분석 결과 Pseudomonas sp. NZ060과 Pseudomonas pseudoalcaligenes, uncultured Variovorax sp., soil bacterium NS7로 동정되었다.

현재 양식장에서는 Aeromonad를 비롯한 다양한 병원균에 의한 전염병으로 인해 많은 경제적 손실을 겪고 있다. 연어과 어류뿐만 아니라 담수 및 해수어류에도 치명적인 감염을 야기하는 Aeromonas 종은 적어도 26종 이상이 보고되어왔으며, 전염병을 유발하는 유비쿼터스 세균이다. Aeromonas 종을 확인하기 위해 16S rDNA 및 하우스 키핑 유전자의 핵산 서열을 기반으로 한 분자생물학적 기술이 사용될 수 있다. 본 연구에서 Aeromonas 종은 강원도 16개 양식장의 연어과 어류로부터 분리되었으며 Aeromonad의 16S rDNA와 하우스 키핑 유전자의 서열, 즉 RNA polymerase sigma factor ${\sigma}^{70}$ (rpoD) 또는 DNA gyrase subunit B (gyrB)를 기반으로 계통 발생 학적으로 동정했다. 그 결과 대서양 연어 (Salmo salar), 은연어 (Oncorhynchus keta), 산천어 (Oncorhynchus masou masou), 무지개송어 (Oncorhynchus mykiss)에서 96 개의 균주가 수집되었으며, 36개의 균주가 16S rDNA 분석에 의해 Aeromonas 속으로 확인되었다. 확인된 Aeromonas 속 균주는 rpoD 또는 gyrB 유전자 서열을 기반으로 추가 분석되어 Aeromonas salmonicida (24 균주), A. sobria (10 균주), A. media (1 균주) 및 A. popoffii (1 균주)로 검출되었으며, 이 것은 Aeromonas salmonicida가 강원도의 연어과 어류에서 주요 감염균임을 나타낸다. 또 하우스 키핑 유전자의 서열에 기초한 Aeromonas 종의 계통발생학적 동정은 16S rDNA 서열보다 더 정확하다는 것이 또한 증명되었다.

With the establishment of rapid sequence analysis of 16S rRNA and the recognition of its potential to determine the phylogenetic position of any prokaryotic organism, the role of 16S rRNA similarities in the present species definition in bacteriology need to be clarified. Comparative studies clearly reveal the limitations of the sequence analysis of this conserved gene and gene product in the determination of relationship at the pathogenic strain level for which DNA-DNA reassociation experiments still constitute the superior method. Since today the primary structure of 16S rRNA is easier to determine than hybridization between DNA strands, the strength of the sequence analysis is to recognize the level at which DNA pairing studies need to be performed, which certainly applies to similarities of 97% and higher.

Molec-ular analysis was performed on the microflora found In the necrotic pulpal tissue collected from 5 infected root canals that were diagnosed as a periapical abscess. 16S rRNA coding gene (rDNA) library construction and sequencing were performed in order to identify the microflora, The 16S rDNA sequences from 278 clones were identified by a comparison with the database sequence in GenBank. Three phylum and 31 species, which were related to the oral microflora, were identified from the 3 samples (No. 87, 105, and 115). Dialister invisus (5.6％), Peptostreptococcus micron (18.3％), and Veillonella sp. (3.3％) were the organism present in all tee samples. Lac-tobacillusfementum (2.8％),Eubacterumsp./E. infirmum (6.7％), Shuttleworthiasatelles (3.9％), Psudorarnihacfer alactoiyticus (13.3％), Bulleidia moorei (2.8％), and Prevotella denticola (1.1％) were found in two samples. Two phylum and low species of environmental microflora were identified from 2 samples (No.95 and 101). The reason for this might be contamination of the samples with dental water. These results showed that molecular analysis could reveal more diverse microflora that are associated with endodontic infections than that revealed by conventional cultural methods. In addition, these results may of for the basic data to epidemiological studies related with endodontic infection.

A microcosmal experiment using a metagenomic technique was designed to assess the effect of BTEX (benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, and xylenes) on an indigenous bacterial community in a Daejeon forest soil. A compositional shift of bacterial groups in an artificial BTEX-contaminated soil was examined by the 16S rDNA PCR-DGGE method. Phylogenetic analysis of 16S rDNAs in the dominant DGGE bands showed that the number of Actinobacteria and Bacillus populations increased. To confirm these observations, we performed PCR to amplify the 23S rDNA and 16S rDNA against the sample metagenome using Actinobacteria-targeting and Bacilli-specific primer sets, respectively. The result further confirmed that a bacterial community containing Actinobacteria and Bacillus was affected by BTEX.

P. endodontalis which was known to be associated with the infected root canals and periapical lesions is very difficult to detect by culture methods or traditional methods. Detection of bacteria using polymerase chain reaction(PCR) for 16S ribosomal DNA(rDNA) is fast, simple, and accurate with relatively small amount of target cells. 16S rDNA consist of conserved regions those are same to all species, and variable regions which represent species specificity. The 16S rDNA sequences of P. endodontalis and P. gingivalis were aligned and two highly variable regions were selected as a pair of species specific oligonucleotide primers for P. endodontalis. And then the pair of primers for PCR amplification was synthesized to identify P. endodontalis. The sequences of the species specific primers for the 16S rDNA of P. endodontalis were as follows ; sense primer[endo1]: 5'-CTATATTCTTCTTTCTCCGCATGGAGGAGG-3' antisense primer[endo2]: 5'-GCATACCTTCGGTCTCCTCTAGCATAT-3' In this study, for the identification of P. endodontalis without culture from the mixed clinical samples, PCR was done with species specific primers for the 16S rDNA sequences of P. endodontalis. The results were as follows : 1. The species specificity of the primers for the 16S rDNA of P. endodntalis was determined by the PCR methods. About 490bp amplicon which was specific only for P. endodntalis was produced with P. endodontalis. No amplicon was produced by PCR with other strains similar to P. endodontalis. 2. The synthesized species specific primers reacted with conventionally identified P. endodontalis which we have in conservative dentistry laboratory. 3. The identification of P. endodontalis using PCR technique with samples collected from infected root canals or periapical lesions was more sensitive than that of culture methods. 4. Seven samples revealed including P. endodontalis by PCR technique. Five of them were related with pains, two of them with sinus tract, three of them with foul odor, and three of them with purulent drainage. P. endodontalis was shown to have great relation with pains.

Recently, the development of various culture-independent identification techniques for environmental microbes has greatly enhanced our knowledge of microbial diversity. In particular, denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE) of 16S rDNA fragments, generated using the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) is frequently used to examine the diversity of environmental bacterial populations. This method consists of direct extraction of the environmental DNA, amplification of the 200-600 bp 16S rDNA fragments with universal primers, and separation of the fragments according to their melting point on a denaturing gradient gel. In this study, we investigated the seaside microbial community in coastal areas of Busan, Korea, using culture-independent techniques. First, marine genomic DNA was extracted from seawater samples collected at Songjeong, Gwangahn, and Songdo Beaches. Then, PCR was used to amplify the bacterial 16S rDNA using universal primers, and DGGE was used to separate the amplified 500 bp 16S rDNA fragments. Finally, the tested 16S rDNA genes were further analyzed by sequencing. Based on these experiments, we found that DGGE analysis clearly showed variation among the regional groups. It can be used to monitor rapid changes in the bacterial diversity of various environments. In addition, the sequence analysis indicated the existence of many unculturable bacteria, in addition to Arcobacter, Pseudoaltermonas, and Vibrio species.
