${\beta}$-Glucuronidase (EC 3.2.1.31) which hydrolizes D-glucuronate from ${\beta}$-D-glucuronide was purified from rat liver, using ammonium sulfate fractionation, DEAE-cellulose chromatography, Concanavalin-A Sepharose 4B chromatography and gel filtration on Sephadex G-200. This enzyme has the molecular weight of 280,000 daltons by gel filtration and 75,000 daltons by SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. As its funtion is reverse of detoxification in the liver, the inhibition of the enzyme was tested with extracts of several food products and medicinal herbs, some are known as anti-cancer agents. Among them, Panax ginseng and Cortnellus shiiake inhibited the enzyme competitively and the $K_1$ values were $9.22 {\times}\;10^{-2}$ and 0.102 mg/ml, respectively. These inhibitors strongly bound to DEAE-cellulose. The negatively charged amino acids, L-aspartate and L-glutamate, inhibited the enzyme, and $K_1$ value of L-aspartate was 0.80 mM. The interaction between ${\beta}$-glucuronidase and p-nitrophenyl-${\beta}$-D-glucuronide was found to involve ionic forces by the effect of ionic strength on the kinetic constant, Vmax/Km. It was inferred from these findings that cationic group at the active center of the enzyme is probably involved in attacking the substrate.

To examine the differential expression of proteins during the cycling (70~80% confluences) and G0/G1 (full confluences) phases in porcine fetal fibroblast cells, we used a global proteomics approach by 2-D gel electrophoresis (2-DE) and MALDI-TOF-MS. Cycling cell were harvested at approximately 70% to 80% confluent state while cells in G0/G1 phase were recovered after maintenance of a confluent state for 48 hr. Cellular proteins with isoelectric points ranging between 3.0~10.0, were analyzed by 2-DE with 2 replicates of each sample. A total of approximately 700 spots were detected by 2.D gels stained with Coomassie brilliant blue. On comparing the cell samples obtained from the cycling and G0/G1 phases, a total of 13 spots were identified as differentially expressed proteins, of which 8 spots were up-regulated in the cycling cell and 5 were up-regulated in the G0/G1 phase. Differentially expressed proteins included K3 keratin, similar to serine protease 23 precursor, protein disulfide-isomerase A3, microsomal protease ER-60, alpha-actinin-2, and heat-shock protein 90 beta. The identified proteins were grouped on the basis of their basic functions such as molecular binding, catabolic, cell growth, and transcription regulatory proteins. Our results show expression profiles of key proteins in porcine fetal fibroblast cells during different cell cycle status.

Two-dimensional gel electrophoresis (2-DE) is an essential tool of proteomics to analyse the entire set of proteins of an organism and its variation between organisms. Helicobacter pylori was tried to identify differences between strains. As the first step, whole H. pylori was lysed using high concentration urea contained lysis buffer [9.5 M Urea, 4% CHAPS, 35 mM Tris, 65 mM DTT, 0.01% SDS and 0.5% Ampholite (Bio-Rad, pH 3-10)]. The extract ($10\;{\mu}g$) was rehydrated to commercially available immobilised pH gradient (IPG) strips, then the proteins were separated according to their charges as the first dimensional separation. The IPG strips were placed on Sodium Dodecyl Sulfate-Polyacrylamide Gel Electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) to separate according to molecular mass of the proteins as the second dimension. The separated protein spots were visualised by silver staining in order to compare different expression of proteins between strains. Approximately 120 spots were identified in each mini-protein electrophoresised gel, furthermore about 65 to 75 spots were regarded as identical proteins in terms of pI value and molecular weight between strains used. In addition, distinct differences were found between strains, such as 219-1, Y7 and Y14, CH150. Two representative strains were examined using strips which had pH range from 4 to 7. This strips showed a number of isoforms which were considered large spots on pH range 3-10. Furthermore, the rest of spots on pH 4-7 IPG strips appeared very distinctive compared to broad range IPG strips. 2-DE seems to be an excellent tool for analysing and identifying variations between H. pylori strains.

생물 및 의학계에서는 생물정보학(bioinformatics)의 데이터 중 혈청 단백질(proteome)에서 추출한 데이터가 질병의 진단에 관련된 정보를 가지고 있고, 이 데이터를 분류 분석함으로 질병을 조기에 진단 할 수 있다고 믿고 있다. 본 논문에서는 혈청 단백질(2-D PAGE: Two-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis)로부터 암과 정상을 판별하는 새로운 복합분류기를 제안한다. 새로운 복합 분류기에서는 support vector machine(SVM)와 다층 퍼셉트론(multi-layer perceptron: MLP)와 k-최근 접 이웃(k-nearest neighbor: k-NN)분류기를 앙상블(ensemble) 방법으로 통합하는 동시에 다중 부스팅(boosting) 방법으로 각 분류기를 확장하여 부분류기(subclassifier)의 배열(array)으로서 복합분류기를 구성하였다. 각 부분류기에서는 최적 특성 집합 (feature set)을 탐색하기 위하여 유전 알고리즘(genetic algorithm: GA)를 적용하였다. 복합분류기의 성능을 측정하기 위하여 암연구에서 얻어진 임상 데이터를 복합분류기에 적용하였고 결과로서 단일 분류기 보다 높은 분류 정확도와 안정성을 보여 주었다.

Bovine milk is widely consumed by humans and is a primary ingredient of dairy foods. Proteomic approaches have the potential to elucidate complex milk proteins and have been used to study milk of various species. Here, we performed a proteomic analysis using 2-dimensional electrophoresis (2-DE) and matrix assisted laser desorption ionization-time of flight mass spectrometer (MALDI-TOF MS) to identify whey proteins in bovine milk obtained soon after parturition (bovine early milk). The major casein proteins were removed, and the whey proteins were analyzed with 2-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (2-D PAGE). The whey proteins (2 mg) were separated by pI and molecular weight across pH ranges of 3.0 - 10.0 and 4.0 - 7.0. The 2-DE gels held about 300 to 700 detectable protein spots. We randomly picked 12 and nine spots that were consistently expressed in the pH 3.0 - 10.0 and pH 4.0 - 7.0 ranges, respectively. Following MALDI-TOF MS analysis, the 21 randomly selected proteins included proteins known to be present in bovine milk, such as albumin, lactoferrin, serum albumin precursor, T cell receptor, polymeric immunoglobulin receptor, pancreatic trypsin inhibitor, aldehyde oxidase and microglobulin. These proteins have major functions in immune responses, metabolism and protein binding. In summary, we herein identified both known and novel whey proteins present in bovine early milk, and our sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) analysis revealed their expression pattern.

A bacterial strain LC-413, producing an extracellular inulin fructotransferase (depolymerizing) which converts inulin into di-D-fructofuranose dianhydride (DFAIII), was isolated from soil. Inulin fructotransferase from the isolate identified as a strain Flabobacterium sp. was purified from the culture broth by ammonium sulfate precipitation, followed by column chromatograpies on DEAE-Toyopearl 650 M and phenyl-Toyopearl 650 M. The purified enzyme gave a single band on an electrophoretic disc-gel. The molecular weight of the enzyme was estimated to be 44, 000 Da by SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, and 45, 000 Da by gel filtration, suggesting the monomeric state of the enzyme. The isoelectric point of the enzyme was about pH 4.5. The optimal pH and temperature for the enzyme reaction were 6.0 and $50^{\circ}C$, respectively. The purified enzyme digested inulin into di-D-fructofuranose-l, 2': 2, 3'-dianhydride, confirming the enzyme was an inulin fructotransferase (inulinase II).
