  • Intracellular NADH:quinone reductase involved in degradation of aromatic compounds including lignin was purified and characterized from white rot fungus Trametes versicolor. The activity of quinone reductase was maximal after 3 days of incubation in fungal culture, and the enzyme was purified to homogeneity using ion-exchange, hydrophobic interaction, and gel filtration chromatographies. The purified enzyme has a molecular mass of 41kDa as determined by SDS-PAGE, and exhibits a broad temperature optimum between $20-40^{\circ}C$, with a pH optimum of 6.0. The enzyme preferred FAD as a cofactor and NADH rather than NADPH as an electron donor. Among quinone compounds tested as substrate, menadione showed the highest enzyme activity followed by 1,4-benzoquinone. The enzyme activity was inhibited by $CuSO_4,\;HgCl_2,\;MgSO_4,\;MnSO_4,\;AgNO_3$, dicumarol, KCN, $NaN_3$, and EDTA. Its $K_m\;and\;V_{max}$ with NADH as an electron donor were $23{\mu}M\;and\;101mM/mg$ per min, respectively, and showed a high substrate affinity. Purified quinone reductase could reduce 1,4-benzoquinone to hydroquinone, and induction of this enzyme was higher by 1,4-benzoquinone than those of other quinone compounds.

  • The NAD(P)H-quinone oxidoreductase (EC 1. 6. 99. 2) was purified from S. cerevisiae. The native molecular weight of the enzyme is approximately 111 kDa and is composed of five identical subunits with molecular weights of 22 kDa each. The optimum pH of the enzyme is pH 6.0 with 1,4-benzoquinone as a substrate. The apparent $k_m$ for 1,4-benzoquinone and 1,4- naphthoquinone are 1.3 mM and $14.3\;{\mu}M$, respectively. Its activity is greatly inhibited by $Cu^{2+}$ and $Hg^{2+}$ ions, nitrofurantoin, dicumarol, and Cibacron blue 3GA. The purified NAD(P)H-quinone oxidoreductase was found capable of reducing aromatic nitroso compounds as well as a variety of quinones, and can utilize either NADH or NADPH as a source of reducing equivalents. The nitroso reductase activity of the purified NAD(P)H-quinone oxidoreductase is strongly inhibited by dicumarol.

  • The tetrakis(thio)-substituted-1,4-benzoquinone products 4a-e, 6, 7, and the mono(alkoxy)-tris(thio)-substituted-1,4- benzoquinone products 5a-e and 8a-e were synthesized from the reactions of p-chloranil with some thiols and mixture of two different thiol compounds in alcohol in the presence of $Na_2CO_3$ at room temperature. The structures of the novel S,S,S,S- and S,S,S,O- substituted products, which were obtained by the reactions of p-chloranil as a starting compound with n-propanethiol, n-pentanethiol, n-decanethiol, n-dodecanethiol, 2-methyl-2-propanethiol, and mixture of n-decanethiol and n-cyclohexanethiol as S-nucleophiles, were characterized by spectroscopic methods.

  • 본 논문에서는 경제적이며 일회용 센서칩으로 제작 가능한 스크린프린팅한 탄소칩 전극[screen printed carbon electrode(SPCE)]에 다중벽 탄소 나노 튜브, 전도성고분자 및 티로시나아제를 융합하여 제작된 나노복합체를 도포한 센서를 개발하고 이를 내분비 저하 물질이면서, 비만, 당뇨병 및 심혈관질환 등의 만성질환 및 성조숙증, 여성 생식 질환, 불임 등과 관련성이 입증된 비스페놀A 농도 분석에 적용하고자 하였다. 다중벽 탄소 나노 튜브를 산화시켜 음전하를 띠게 한 후 양전하를 띠는 전도성고분자인 polydiallyldimethylammonium (PDDA)로 감싸준 후 용액의 pH를 조절하여 음전하를 띠게 한 티로시나아제를 첨가하여 최종적으로 산화된 다중벽 탄소 나노 튜브-PDDA-티로시나아제 나노복합체를 형성하였다. 상기 나노복합체를 물리적으로 흡착시킨 센서칩 표면을 비스페놀A 용액에 접촉시키고, 비스페놀A가 티로시나아제와 2단계의 효소-기질반응을 할 수 있는 충분한 시간(3분)을 주면, 생성물[4,4'-isopropylidenebis(1,2-benzoquinone)]이 생성된다. 이 때 순환전압전류법과 시차펄스전압전류법을 이용하여 생성물[4,4'-isopropylidenebis(1,2-benzoquinone)]을 환원(-0.08V vs. Ag/AgCl)하였을 때 얻어진 전류값 변화를 측정하여 비스페놀A의 농도를 정량적으로 분석하였다. 추가적으로 개발한 센서 전극표면에 비스페놀A와 유사한 비스페놀S 방해물질을 비스페놀A와 함께 접촉하였을 때 비스페놀A에 대한 우수한 선택성을 확인하였다. 최종적으로 제작한 센서를 실험실에서 제작한 환경 시료안에 비스페놀A의 농도를 분석하는 데 적용함으로써 실제 현장에서 활용될 수 있는 가능성을 시사하였다.

  • Heat shock protein 90 (Hsp90) is treated as a molecular therapeutic target for the prevention and treatment of cancer. Geldanamycin (GA) was the first identified natural Hsp90 inhibitor, but hepatotoxicity has limited its clinical application. Nevertheless, a new GA analog (WK-88-1) with the non-benzoquinone skeleton, obtained from genetically engineered Streptomyces hygroscopicus, was found to have anticancer activity against two human breast cancer cell lines. WK-88-1 produced concentration-dependent inhibition of cell proliferation, cell cycle arrest, and apoptosis in estrogen receptor (ER)-positive MCF-7 and ER-negative MDA-MB-231 cell lines. Detailed analysis showed that WK-88-1 downregulated some key cell cycle molecules (CDK1 and cyclin B1) and lead to $G_2/M$ cell cycle arrest. Further studies also showed that WK-88-1 could induce human breast cancer cell apoptosis by downregulating Hsp90 client proteins (Akt, p-Akt, IKK, c-Raf, and Bcl-2), decreasing the ATP level, increasing reactive oxygen species production, and lowering the mitochondrial membrane potential. Meanwhile, we discovered that WK-88-1 significantly decreased the levels of Her-2 and $ER-{\alpha}$ in MCF-7 cells but not in MDA-MB-231 cells. In addition, WK-88-1 significantly increased caspase-3, -8, and -9 activities and the cleavage of PARP in a concentration-dependent manner (with the exception of caspase-3 and PARP in MCF-7 cells). Taken together, our preliminary results suggest that WK-88-1 has the potential to play a role in breast cancer therapy.

  • Tere-and Isophthalohydroxamoyl chlorides were condensed with 1, 4-benzoquinone to afford quinone type polymer with the oxidation of the ring structure. Similarly, tere-and isophthalohydroxamoyl chlorides were condensed with tere-and isophthaldioximes and terephthalonitrile to give crystalline polyphenylene-1,2,4-oxadiazoles, among which the reaction product of terephthalohydroxamoyl chloride with terephthalonitrile in xylene afforded the highest crystallinity.

  • 본 연구에서는 Poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO)/Ag Nanoparticles (NPs)/7,7,8,8-Tetracyanoquinodimethane (TCNQ) 분리막 시스템을 제조하여 기존의 PEO/Ag NPs/p-Benzoquinone (p-BQ) 복합체 분리막보다 더 향상된 성능을 보이는 고투과성올레핀 촉진수송 나노복합체 분리막을 얻고자 하였다. 고분자 지지체 PEO와 은 나노 입자 전구체 $AgBF_4$는 1 대 0.4 몰비로 고정하고 전자 수용체인 TCNQ 함량은 다양하게 조절하였으며 1/0.4/0.004 몰비에서 가장 높은 올레핀 분리막 성능을 확인하였다. 따라서 이 비율에서 long-term test를 진행하였고 초반에는 투과도 약 23 GPU, 선택도 약 6 (프로필렌/프로판)의 수치를 보였으나 32시간 만에 투과도는 약 6 GPU, 선택도는 약 2 (프로필렌/프로판)로 감소하는 것을 확인하였다.

  • 본 연구는 밀 배아의 기능성 물질인 2,6-DMBQ와 아라비노자일란 추출 효율을 증가시키기 위하여 상업용 효소인 Celluclast 1.5L을 사용하여 추출하였다. 추출 시 온도는 30, 45, 60℃였고, 추출 시간은 0, 6, 12, 18, 24, 30시간 추출 후 상등액 pH 변화와 건조물을 분석하였다. 추출물의 pH는 WEWG와 ETWG 모두 추출 온도 30℃에서는 18시간 추출 시부터 급격하게 감소하였으며, 45℃는 12시간부터 감소하였고, 60℃는 다른 추출 온도와 비교하여 큰 변화는 없었다. 2,6-DMBQ는 WEWG와 ETWG 모두 추출 시간이 경과함에 따라 증가하였다. 추출 온도 30℃에서 가장 높은 함량으로 추출되었으며, 30시간 추출할 때 2,6-DMBQ 함량은 ETWG에서 WEWG 보다 추출 온도 30℃에서 27.60%, 45℃에서 65.03%, 60℃에서 151.05% 증가하였다. 수용성 아라비노자일란 함량은 WEWG와 비교하여 ETWG가 높게 측정되었으며, 효소 처리 후 60℃에서 15.23±0.08 mg/g으로 가장 높은 함량으로 나타났다. 30시간 추출 시 ETWG와 WEWG에서의 수용성 아라비노자일란 함량을 비교했을 때 30℃에서 7.92%, 45℃에서 31.20%, 60℃에서 54.38% 증가하였다. 본 연구 결과는 제분 부산물인 밀 배아에 항염 활성을 보유하는 기능성 소재로서의 활용을 위한 기초자료로 이용될 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.
