음용수 속 암모니아의 존재는 인간의 건강에 매우 해롭다. 농작물에서의 비료 사용, 산업 폐수, 화석 연료의 연소와 같은 활동으로 인해 가용성 암모니아는 지하수를 오염시킨다. 물에 존재하는 암모니아 농도가 낮더라도 해양생물 등의 수생환경을 훼손한다. 막 기술은 암모니아를 물로부터 효과적으로 제거하기 위한 매우 중요한 과정이다. 평평한 시트 막, 막 접촉기, 그리고 막 증류법은 암모니아를 제거하여 물을 정화하는 데 사용되는 방법들 중 하나이다. 막 접촉기는 막 증류법과는 달리 상변화 없이 액체와 가스 간의 또는 액체와 액체간의 질량 전달을 통해 암모니아를 제거하는 효율적인 공정이다. 다만 이 방법은 pH가 매우 높아 암모니아 제거에 비용이 많이 든다. 제올라이트는 우수한 이온 교환 능력을 가지고 있는데, 이는 암모니아와의 상호작용을 향상시켜 폐수로부터 흡착하는 능력을 향상시킨다. 제올라이트를 함유한 혼합 매트릭스 막은 암모니아 흡착 및 폐수로부터의 분리 효율을 향상시킨다. 이 리뷰에서는 위에서 소개된 내용이 자세히 논의될 것이다.

사람의 적혈구에서 여러 가지 음이온들의 등삼투성 암모늄 염으로 된 용액속에서의 용혈성을 이용하여 이들 음이온들이 $HCO_3\;^-$ 혹은 $OH^-$와 교환되어 이동되는 정도와 몇 가지 억제 물질의 영향, pH 및 온도 변화의 효과를 관찰하여 그 결과를 지금까지 방사성동위원소를 이용한 실험에서 보고된 성적들과 비교하였다. $SITS.\;H_2DIDS$, furosemide등은 농도에 비례하여 등삼투성 $NH_4Cl$ 용액에서의 용혈 시간을 연장시켰으며 $t_{1/2}$를 두배로 연장시킨 농도는 각각 $ 2.3{\times}10^{-7}M,\;3{\times}10^{-7}M,\;2.5{\times}10^{-5}M$이었다. Acetazolamide도 농도에 비례하여 적혈구 용혈 시간을 연장시켰으며 $t_{1/2}$을 2배로 연장시킨 농도는 $2.4{\times}10^{-5}M$이었다. 온도를 $2^{\circ}C$에서 $37^{\circ}C$까지 변화시키며 적혈구 용혈시간을 관찰했을 때 높은 온도 의존성을 보였으며 $1/t_{1/2}$을 Arrhenius plot하였을 때 $20^{\circ}C$에서 회절점을 보였고 activation energy는 $20^{\circ}C{\sim}37^{\circ}C$범위에서 11.2kcal/mol이었다. 여러 가지 무기 음이온의 투과도를 $t_{1/2}$을 기준으로 비교했을 때 $Cl^->NO_3\;^->SCN^->SO_4\;^{2-}>SSO_3\;^{2-}>HPO_4\;^{2-}$의 순이었으며 유기 음이온 중 oxalate는 $Cl^-$보다 높은 투과도를 succinate는 낮은 투과도를 보였다. 이상의 결과를 종합하면 등삼투성 암모늄염 용액에서의 적혈구 용혈성을 이용하여 음이온 이동에 대하여 관찰한 결과들이 지금까지의 동위원소를 이용한 실험 성적들과 유사한 결과를 보여주고 있으며 특히 이동률이 빠르거나, 높은 온도범위에서의 음이온의 이동을 관찰하는데는 동위원소를 이용한 실험의 단점을 보완할 수 있는 장점도 있어 이 방법의 적혈구 막을 통한 음이온의 이동 기전과 이에 영향을 미치는 인자들을 연구하는데 간편하고 유용하게 이용될 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

A simple purification procedure of bioactive human granulocyte macrophage colony stimulating factor (hGM-CSF) secreted in rice cell suspension culture has previously been described. In this study the protein was purified to apparent homogeneity with an overall yield of $80.1\%$ by ammonium sulfate precipitation and a single chromatographic step involving FPLCanion exchange chromatography. The purified hGM-CSF revealed at least five glycosylated forms ranging from $21.5{\~}29$ kDa, and its biological activity was independent of the glycosylation pattern. This is the first purification report of recombinant hGM-CSF to apparent homogeneity from rice cell suspension cultures.

A laccase was isolated from the culture filtrate of the basidiomycete Fomitella fraxinea. The enzyme was purified to electrophoretical homogeneity using ammonium sulfate precipitation, anion-exchange chromatography, and gel-filtration chromatography. The enzyme was identified as a monomeric protein with a molecular mass of 47 kDa by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) and gel-filtration chromatography, and had an isoelectric point of 3.8. The N-terminal amino acid sequence for the enzyme was ATXSNXKTLAAD, which had a very low similarity to the sequences previously reported for laccases from other basidiomycetes. The optimum pH and temperature for 2,2'-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonate) (ABTS) were 3.0 and $70^{\circ}C$, respectively. The enzyme also showed a much higher level of specific activity for ABTS and 2,6-dimethoxyphenol (DMP), where the $K_m$ values of the enzyme for ABTS and 2,6-DMP were 270 and $426{\mu}M$, respectively, and the $V_{max}$ values were 876 and $433.3{\mu}M/min$, respectively. The laccase activity was completely inhibited by L-cysteine, dithiothreitol (DTT), and sodium azide, significantly inhibited by $Ni^+,\;Mn^{2+}$, and $Ba^{2+}$, and slightly stimulated by $K^+$ and $Ca^{2+}$.

Crude cytoplasmic fraction of phototrophic purple sulfur bacterium, Thiocapsa roseopersicina NCIB 8347, were initially prepared and purified by sonication, ultracentrifugation, ammonium sulfate fractionation and heat-treatment and it has been previously reported. Using various applications of chromatography far the purification of membrane-bound and soluble hydrogenases from heat-treated enzyme fraction were studied at present report. When the heat-treated enzyme preparation was applied to the anion column chromatography using Q-sepharose, Fraction I and II, which were extracted with the KCl 0-0.5 M gradient, showed the specific evolution hydrogenase activity 3.86 and 2.27 U/mg-protein respectively. Specific hydrogenase activitys of Fraction I and II were further increased to 4.35 and 7.46 U/mg-protein for Fraction I and to 2.49 and 4.41 U/mg-protein fur Fraction II respectively, when hydrophobic interaction column, Phenyl superose, and anion exchange column, Mono-Q, were applied. Size exclusion chromatography using superdex 200 concentrated the hydrogenase Fraction I and II to 9.19 and 7.84 U/mg-protein respectively at the final step of purification.

The purification and characterization of a $Mn^{2+}$-dependent alkaline serine protease produced by Bacillus pumilus TMS55 were investigated. The enzyme was purified in three steps: concentrating the crude enzyme using ammonium sulfate precipitation, followed by gel filtration and cation-exchange chromatography. The purified protease had a molecular mass of approximately 35 kDa, was highly active over a broad pH range of 7.0 to 12.0, and remained stable over a pH range of 7.5 to 11.5. The optimum temperature for the enzyme activity was found to be $60^{\circ}C$. PMSF and AEBSF (1 mM) significantly inhibited the protease activity, indicating that the protease is a serine protease. $Mn^{2+}$ ions enhanced the activity and stability of the enzyme. In addition, the purified protease remained stable with oxidants ($H_2O_2$, 2%) and organic solvents (25%), such as benzene, hexane, and toluene. Therefore, these characteristics of the protease and its dehairing ability indicate its potential for a wide range of commercial applications.

병원성 미생물인 Vibrio fluvialis로부터 hemolysin을 분리정제 하였다. 즉, hemolysin의 정제는 균 배양액을 황산암모늄, ion exchange chromatography를 행하였으며 SDS-PAGE를 통해 그 단백질의 크기가 약 79kDa임을 알게되었다. 정제된 hemolysin (VFH)는 35$^{\circ}C$에서 최적활성을 나타내었고, 4$0^{\circ}C$에서는 그 활성이 감소되었다. RTG-2 어류유래 세포주에 hemolysin (VFH)의 처리로 세포독성을 측정한 결과 50$\mu\textrm{g}$의 VFH가 약 80%의 cell line을 사멸시켰다. 또한 현미경을 통한 관찰에서도 세포의 형태변화를 관찰할 수 있었다.

The method of amino acid sequence determination from the C-terminal amino acid is proposed and mass spectrometric identification of thiohydantoins described previously. In this paper was discussed the fragmentation of thiohydantoin-ring by deutero substitution and model tripeptide have been degraded through three stages each, with interpretable results. The conditions employed in this method are mild enough for biological materials. The main features of the method are the following. 1. Thiohydantoins were formed in a non-aqueous medium a mixture of acetic anhydride, acetic acid and ammonium thiocyanate. 2. Mass sepectra of thiohydantoins derived from 20 amino acids were obtained with a mass spectrometer, JEOL model JMS-06H. 3. Cleavage of peptidyl thiohydantoin was made with an acidic from of a cation-exchange resin. (Amberlite IR-120) 4. Separation of the cleaved thiohydantoin and the parent peptide less one amino acid moiety was made by chromatography on a Sephadex G-10 column. 5. The peptide fraction was concentrated by freezedrying. 6. Thiohydantoin derivative of carboxyl terminal amino acid residue was introduced with a direct inlet probe in methanol solution.

탄화수소로의 메탄올 전환반응에 대한 헤테로폴리산 화합물의 역할과 적용성에 관하여 연구하였다. 탄화수소의 수율과 저급 올레핀의 선택도를 높히기 위하여 반응온도, 메탄올 분압 및 접촉시간 등 반응조건의 영향과 촉매의 이온교환 효과를 조사하였다. 그들의 산의 세기는 치환된 금속이온의 종류에 따라 달라졌고, 탄화수소의 수율과 프로판에 대한 프로필렌의 선택도는 상대 금속이온의 전기음성도와 밀접한 관계를 보여주었다. 다른 헤테로폴리산 화합물과는 달리 암모늄염은 상당히 높은 촉매활성과 저급 올레핀에 대한 파라핀의 높은 선택도를 보여 주었다.

Thermoactinomyces sp. E79 produced two types of thermostable alkaline proteases extracellularly. A minor protease was separated from a major protease by using DEAE-column chromatography. This enzyme was purified to homogeneity by ammonium sulfate and DEAE-Sepharose ion-exchange chromatography. The purified minor protease showed different biochemical properties compared to the major protease. The molecular mass of the purified enzyme was estimated by SDS-PAGE to be 36 kDa. Its optimum temperature and pH for proteolytic activity against Hammarsten casein were $70^{\circ}C$ and 9.0, respectively. The enzyme was stable up to$75^{\circ}C$ and in an alkaline pH range of 9.0-11.0. The enzyme was inhibited by phenylmethylsulfonyl fluoride (PMSF) and $Hg^{2+}, indicating that the enzyme may be a cysteine-dependent serine protease. In addition, the enzyme cleaved the endoproteinase substrate, succinyl-Ala-Ala-Pro-Phe-p- nitroanilide, and the $K_m$ value for the substrate was 1.2 mM.
