목 적 : 터너증후군 환자들에게는 다양한 핵형과 표현형이 나타나지만 우리나라에서는 그 연관성에 대한 연구가 미미한 실정이다. 그리하여 본 연구에서는 터너증후군으로 진단받은 환자들의 염색체 이상, 임상양상, 동반 질환에 대해 조사하였다. 대상 및 방 법 : 경북대학교병원에서 터너증후군으로 진단받은 환자 92명을 대상으로 염색체 핵형을 분류하였으며, 그 중 62명을 대상으로 임상 양상 및 동반 질환을 조사하였다. 결 과 : 핵형이 45,X인 환자는 54.3%였고. 섞임증 및 구조 이상이 나머지를 차지하였다. 섞임증의 경우 45,X에 비하여 Turner stigmata의 빈도가 낮았다. 46,X,del(Xp) 및 45,X/46,X,del(Xq)에서는 모두 골격 이상이 나타난 반면, 46,X, del(Xq)에서는 나타나지 않았다. 46,X,del(Xp)에서는 성적 유치증이 나타나지 않았지만, 46,X,del(Xq) 및 45,X/46,X,del(Xq)의 경우에는 이차 성징 지연이 지연 및 무월경이 나타났다. 46,X,i(Xq) 및 45,X/46,X,i(Xq)의 경우 이차 성징이 발현되지 않았고 모두 일차 무월경을 보였다. 그 외에 장완의 isochromosome이 있는 경우 청력 장애 및 갑상선 질환이 더 빈번하게 나타났다. 결 론 : 터너증후군 환자들의 핵형과 표현형 사이의 연관성을 조사하는 작업은 성염색체에 위치하는 유전자자리를 예측하는 정보를 얻을 수 있다는 점에서 중요하다고 생각한다.

Connexins (Cx) are membrane proteins and monomers for forming gap junction (GJ) channels. Cx46 and Cx50 are also known to function as conductive hemichannels. As part of an ongoing effort to find GJ-specific blocker(s), endocrine disruptors were used to examine their effect on Cx46 hemichannels expressed in Xenopus oocytes. Voltage-dependent gating of Cx46 hemichannels was characterized by slowly activating outward currents and relatively fast inward tail currents. Bisphenol A (BPA, 10 nM) reduced outward currents of Cx46 hemichannels up to ~18% of control, and its effect was reversible (n=5). 4-tert-Octylphenol (OP, $1{\mu}M$) reversibly reduced outward hemichannel currents up to ~28% (n=4). However, overall shapes of Cx46 hemichannel current traces (outward and inward currents) were not changed by these drugs. These results suggest that BPA and OP are likely to occupy the pore of Cx46 hemichannels and thus obstruct the ionic fluxes. This finding provides that BPA and OP are potential candidates for GJ channel blockers.

FAM46B is a member of the family with sequence similarity 46. Little is known about the expression and functional role (s) of FAM46B in prostate cancer (PC). In this study, the expression of FAM46B expression in The Cancer Genome Atlas, GSE55945, and an independent hospital database was measured by bioinformatics and real-time PCR analysis. After PC cells were transfected with siRNA or a recombinant vector in the absence or presence of a ${\beta}$-catenin signaling inhibitor (XAV-939), the expression levels of FAM46B, C-myc, Cyclin D1, and ${\beta}$-catenin were measured by western blot and realtime PCR. Cell cycle progression and cell proliferation were measured by flow cytometry and the CCK-8 assay. The effects of FAM46B on tumor growth and protein expression in nude mice with PC tumor xenografts were also measured. Our results showed that FAM46B was downregulated but that ${\beta}$-catenin was upregulated in patients with PC. FAM46B silencing promoted cell proliferation and cell cycle progression in PC, which were abrogated by XAV-939. Moreover, FAM46B overexpression inhibited PC cell cycle progression and cell proliferation in vitro and tumor growth in vivo. FAM46B silencing promoted ${\beta}$-catenin protein expression through the inhibition of ${\beta}$-catenin ubiquitination. Our data clearly show that FAM46B inhibits cell proliferation and cell cycle progression in PC through ubiquitination of ${\beta}$-catenin.

A cDNA clone coding for ribosomal protein 46 (rp46) which is a component of 60S ribosomal large subunit has been identified from Drosophila melanogaster. A cDNA clone encoding S. cerevisiae rp46 was used as a probe to screen a Drosophila larvae cDNA library. The DNA sequence analysis revealed that the cDNA coding for Drosophils rp46 contains a complete reading frame of 153 nucleotides coding for 51 amino acids. The deduced amino acid sequence showed 71-75% homology with those of other eukaryotic organisms. Northern blot analysis showed that about 1-kb rp46 transcripts are abundant throughout fly development. Whole mount embryonic mRNA in situ hybridization also showed no preferential distribution of the transcripts to any specific region. The chromosomal in situ hybridization revealed that the identified gene is localized at position 60C on the right arm of the second polytene chromosome with a possibility of single copy.

In this study, ORF 46 of Bombyx mod nucleopolyhedrovirus(Bm46) fused with EGFP was expressed in Bombyx mod cell lines, larvae and pupae by BmNPV Bacmid system. Bm46 and EGFP were cloned into donor plasmid pFastBacHTb, which was transformed to competent DH10B cells containing helper and BmNPV bacmid by site-specific transposition. Recombinant bacmid was used to transfected BmN-4 cells to produce the recombinant baculovirus vBm-Bm46-EGFP. Recombination virus was injected into silkworm larvae and pupae. The expression of the fusion protein was monitored by examining green fluorescence using a fluorescent microscope. Intense fluorescence in cells and silkworm was observed at 4 days post-infection, indicating the Bm46-EGFP fusion gene was expressed successfully.

The aerobic photosynthetic bacterium, which produces bacterial carotenoids was isolated and identified from coastal marine environments. This bacterium was identified by 16S rDNA sequencing and designated as Erythrobacter longus SY-46. E. longus SY-46 was Gram negative and rod shape, and the optimal culture conditions were $25^{\circ}C$, pH 7.0, and 3.0% NaCl concentration, respectively. The carbon and nitrogen sources required for the optimal growth were lactose and tryptone, respectively. Fatty acid compositions of E. longus SY-46 were $C_{18:1}$(78.32%), v-linolenic acid($C_{18:3n9.12.15c}:3.83%$), margaric acid($C_{17:0}$: 3.38%), palmitic acid($C_{16:0}$: 3.07%), and docosahexaenoic acid($C_{22:6n3}$: 2.21%). In addition, E. longus SY-46 showed the characteristic absorption peaks of bacterial carotenoids(in the region of 450 to 480 nm) and bacteriochlorophyll(770 to 772 nm). Major carotenoids of E. longus SY-46 were polyhydroxylated xanthophylls such as fucoxanthin and zeaxanthin.
