R. eutropha의 PHA 생합성 유전자를 포함하는 플라스미드 pSYL107을 가진 재조합 대장균 GCSC6576과 A. latus PHA 생합성 유전자를 포함하는 플라스미드 pJC4를 가진 fadR atoC 돌연변이주 재조합 대장균 LS5218의 유청으로부터 P(3HB-co-3HV) 합성을 비교하였다. 재조합 대장균 GCSC6576(pSYL107)의 플라스크 배양에서 acetic acid induction과 oleic acid의 첨가는 3HV 함량을 증가시켰다. 재조합 대장균 LS5218의 pH-stat 유가식 배양결과, 39시간에 균체농도 31.8 g/L, P(3HB-co-3HV) 농도 10.6 g/L, P(3HB-co-3HV) 함량 33.4%, 3HV 함량 6.26 mol%를 얻을 수 있었다.

Poly (N-vinylpyrrolidone) (PVP) groups were grafted onto a poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroryvalerate) (PHBV) backbone in order to modify its properties and synthesize a novel biocompatible copolymer. The crystallization behavior of PHBV and grafted PHBV was investigated by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and polarized optical microscopy (POM). During the cooling-induced crystallization process, the crystallization temperature and the crystallization rate of the grafted PHBV decreased with increasing PVP weight fraction. On the heating scans of all grafted PHBV samples, a new crystallization exothermic peak appeared at almost the same temperature, suggesting the operation of a recrystallization process, while the melting temperature ($T_m$) and the apparent enthalpy of fusion (${\Delta}H_f$) were not affected by graft modification. During the isothermal crystallization process at the same temperature, the presence of side PVP groups decreased the spherulitic growth rate and the spherulitic band spacing with increasing PVP weight fraction in samples.

Alcaligenes sp. SH-69에서 탄소원의 고갈 또는 새로운 탄소원의 첨가시 포도당을 단일탄소원으로 하여 생합성된 poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyvalerate) [poly(3HB-co-3HV)] 공중합체의 물질대사 변화 양상을 조사하였다. 회분배양 과정 중 탄소원이 고갈된 후에는 세포 내에 축척되었던 poly(3HB-co-3HV) 공중합체의 분해가 일어나 고분자 함량의 감소와 함께 무게평균 분자량도 감소하였다. 분해 과정 중에는 저분자량의 PHA에 비하여 상대적으로 고분자량의 PHA양이 크게 감소하여 평균 분자량 분포가 보다 낮은 방향으로 이동되는 양상을 보였다. 이에 반하여 1차 탄소원(기질)으로 사용된 포도당의 고갈 직후 2차 기질로서 포도당과 함께 3HV의 전구물질인 levulinic acid를 혼합기질로 첨가해 주었을 경우, 세포 건체량의 지속적인 증가와 아울러 3HV 함량이 높은 poly(3HB-co-3HV) 공중합체의 합성이 이루어졌다. 그러나 아세톤을 이용한 고분자의 분획 실험 결과, 2차 기질로부터의 poly(3HB-co-3HV) 공중합체의 생합성과 1차 기질로부터 생합성된 공중합체의 분해가 동시에 일어나며, 또한 각 기질로부터 생합성된 고분자가 단지 3HV의 함량이 다른 poly(3HB-co-3HV) 공중합체임에도 불구하고 혼합물 형태로 존재하고 있음을 확인하였다.

항생제의 서방형 전달을 위해 황산겐타마이신 gentamicin sulfate (GS)을 함유한 poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyvalerate) (PHBV) 제형을 제조하였다. 본 연구에서는 제형의 두께, hydroxyvalerate (HV) 농도, 초기 약물함유량 및 첨가제의 함유에 따른 약물 방출거동의 변화를 조사하였다. 전자주사현미경을 이용하여 제형의 표면형태와 매트릭스 내부 약물의 조성을 관찰한 결과 약물방출 전과 후 모두 거칠고 다공성인 형태를 가짐을 알 수 있었다. 또한, HV와 첨가제의 함량이 증가할수록 약물이 고분자 매트릭스에 더 조밀하게 배열함을 관찰하였고, 이러한 구조가 약물의 방출에 영향을 미침을 알았다. HPLC를 이용하여 약물의 방출량을 측정한 결과, 모든 제형이 복합적인 방출 방향을 나타내었고, 일부 매트릭스는 30일 동안 거의 영차에 가까운 방출거동을 보였다. 이상의 결과에서 우리는 제형의 두께, 고분자 매트릭스의 조성, 첨가제의 함유량 등을 조절함으로 약물 방출을 제어할 수 있음을 확인하였다.

A bacterial strain C-02 using methanol as a carbon source was isolated from Gumi Industrial Estate and selected based on its rapid growth and capability of poly-$\beta$-hydroxybutyrate accumulation. Characteristics of strain C-02 showed that it belongs to the Methylococcaceae family, Type II subgroup. Strain C-02 could incorporate valerate into the PHB chain to form 3-hydroxybutyrate and 3-hydroxyvalerate (P(3HB-co-3HV)). Among various nutrient limitation tests, the nitrogen limitation test resulted in the highest content of P(3HB-co-3HV) per dry cell weight, 50$%$. Under the nitrogen limited condition, the average molecular weight of P(3HB-co-3HV) obtained was determined to be approximately $2.8\times 10^5$ daltons.

The weight average molecular weight of poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyvalerate) synthesized by Alcaligenes sp. SH-69 was altered between $3.2$\times$10^5$ and $1.1$\times$10^6$ depending upon various culture conditions. It appeared that culture conditions favorable for the efficient production of copolyesters promoted the formation of higher molecular weight copolyesters. Polydispersity indices of isolated copolyesters were in the range of 1.5 to 2.5.

Ammonium limitation did not promote ply(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyvalerate) (PHBV) production of Azotobacter vinelandii UWD. In acid phase, ammonium limitation during utilization of propionic acid and butyric acid led to 35% decrease in product yield. In glucose phase, both biomass yield and polymer yield decreased about 22% under ammonium limitation. However, in nitrogen-fixing culture glucose was consumed 25% faster and the final PHBV wt% decreased slightly. Under nitrogen limitation a portion of the carbon sources was used fro nitrogen fixation rather than biomass and polymer formation, resulting in a decrease in biomass yield and polymer yield.

An isolated phbC gene from Alcaligenes latus was reintroduced into the parent A. latus through the transformation process, and the effect of the amplified phbC gene on the biosynthesis of P(3-hydroxybutyrate-3-hydroxyvalerate) [P(3HB-3HV)] and P(3-hydroxybutyrate-4-hydroxybutyrate) [P(3HB-4HB)] in the transformant A. latus was investigated. The biosynthesis rate and content of the above copolymers increased up to 1.3-fold after enforcing its own phbC gene, and the molar fractions of 3HV and 4HB in P(3HB-3HV) and P(3HB-4HB) also changed remarkably from 35.0 to 48.0% and from 34.0 to 56.0%, respectively, showing a critical role of PHB synthase which catalyzes the polymerizing reactions between eiher 3HV or 4HB from precursor compounds and 3HB.

Poly(3-Hydroxybutyrate-co­3-Hydroxyvalerate), poly(3HB-co-3HV), copolyesters with a variety of 3HV contents (ranging from 17 to $60\;mol\%$) were produced by Alcaligenes sp. MT-16 grown on a medium containing glucose and levulinic acid in various ratios, and the effects of hydrophilicity and crystallinity on the degradability of the copolyesters were evaluated. Measurements of thermo-mechanical pro­perties and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy in the attenuated total reflectance revealed that the hydrophilicity and crystallinity of poly(3HB-co-3HV) copolyesters decreased as 3HV content in the copolyester increased. When the prepared copolyester film samples were non-enzymatically hydrolysed in 0.01 N NaOH solution, the weights of all samples were found to have undergone no changes over a period of 20 weeks. In contrast, the copolyester film samples were degraded by the action of extra­cellular polyhydroxybutyrate depolymerase from Emericellopsis minima W2. The overall rate of weight loss was higher in the films containing higher amounts of 3HV, suggesting that the enzymatic degra­dation of the copolyester is more dependent on the crystallinity of the copolyester than on its hydro­philicity. Our results suggest that the degradability characteristics of poly(3HB-co-3HV) copolyesters, as well as their thermo-mechanical properties, are greatly influenced by the 3HV content in the copoly­esters.
