본 연구는 기존에 과실주 발효 시, non-Saccharomyces 효모를 혼합 발효하여 향기성분을 증가시키는 기술을 확대하여 단독 및 혼합 발효로 제조한 탁주 술덧의 향기성분을 증가시킨 후 증류 과정을 통해 주질을 향상시킬 수 있다는 이론을 검증하고자 한 연구이다. 연구를 진행하기 전, 예상한 것처럼, 혼합 발효 증류식 소주에서 과실향을 나타내는 저분자 ester 계열의 휘발성 향기성분들의 함량이 증가하는 것이 입증되었으며, H. uvarum 계열의 효모를 사용한 경우, HU SJ69 혼합 발효구는 S. cerevisiae 단독 발효구와 비슷한 아미노산 함량을 나타냈으나, HU S6 혼합 발효구의 경우, 아미노산 함량이 감소하는 것으로 나타났다. 관능검사 결과, 휘발성 향기성분이 증가한 HU S6 혼합 발효구에서 SC NY21을 사용한 다른 증류식 소주들과 비교하여 유의적으로 큰 차이를 나타내지는 않았지만, 조금 더 높은 향미 점수를 얻은 것을 통해, 향후 non-Saccharomyces 효모의 혼합 발효를 통한 증류식 소주의 품질을 향상시킬 수 있는 기초연구로써 중요한 의미를 가진다고 판단된다. 또한, H. uvarum 계열 효모의 경우에는 국내에서는 식품 원료로 등재되지 않았기 때문에, 향후 산업적 이용을 위한 안전성 검증 등의 연구가 추가되어야 할 것으로 사료된다.

This study was carried out to establish a novel bioassay system for screening of compounds affecting aromatic amino acid or anthocyanin biosynthesis through investigating a degree of sucrose-induced anthocyanin formation such as size of plant material, buffer conditions, light intensity and irradiated duration, incubation temp., etc were determined and standard procedure (suitable experimental condition) was set up as follows. The second leaf blade of white corn seeding induced by fluridone treatment were segmented into a size of 5${\times}$5 min. The segments were floated on the solution of 1% sucrose in 1.0mM MES buffer (pH6.0∼6.5) and incubated at 26$^{\circ}C$ for 2days under the continuous light condition(70∼100$\mu$mol m$^{-2}$ s$^{-1}$ ). Anthocyanin in the purpled tissues was extracted with methanol containing 1% HCl and the optical density of the clear supematants was determined at 528mm. Influences of some chemicals were tested using this system. Glyphosate, 5-enolpyruvylshikimate 3-phosphate synthase inhibitor, showed most sensitive response with I$_{50}$ value at 3.3$\mu$M. Dicyclohexylcarbodiimide(DCCD) and parachloromercuribenzenesulfonic acid(PCMBS) had a relatively strong ingibition with I50 value at 7.1$\mu$M and 10.2$\mu$M, respectively. These results show that sucrose-induced anthocyanin formation in white com leaf segment provide a very simple and rapid system for searching new compounds affecting aromatic amino acid or anteocyanin biosynthesis by screening at less than 10$\mu$M.

E. coli methionyl-tRNA synthetase is one of the class I tRNA synthetases. The Tryptophane residue at the position 461 located in the C-terminal domain of the enzyme is a key amino acid for the interaction with the anticodon of $tRNA^{Met}$. W461 was replaced with other amino acids to determine the chemical requirement for the interaction with the anticodon of $tRNA^{Met}$. Saturation mutagenesis at the position 461 generated a total of 12 substitution mutants of methionyl-tRNA synthetase. All the mutants showed the same in vivo stability as the wild-type enzyme, suggesting that the amino acid substitutions did not cause severe conformational change of the protein The mutants containing tyrosine, phenylalanine, histidine and cysteine substitutions showed in vivo activity while all the other mutants did not. The comparison of the in vitro aminoacylation activities of these mutants showed that aromatic ring structure, Van der Waals volume and hydrogen bond potential of the amino acid residue at the position 461 are the major determinants for the interaction with the anticodon of $tRNA^{Met}$.

The effects of liriodenine, an aporphine isoquinoline alkaloid, on dopamine content in PCl2 cells were investigated. Treatment of PC12 cells with liriodenine decreased dopamine content in a dose-dependent manner (33.6% inhibition at $10\;{\mu}M$ for 12 h). The $IC_{50}$ in value of liriodenine was $8.4\;{\mu}M$. Dopamine content decreased at 3 h and reached a minimal level at 12 h after the exposure to liriodenine. Under these conditions, the activities of tyrosine hydroxylase and aromatic L-amino acid decarboxylase were also inhibited at $10\;{\mu}M$ of liriodenine by 10.1% and 20.2% relative to control, respectively. In addition, liriodenine inhibited the increase in dopamine content induced by L-DOPA Treatments $(50-100\;{\mu}M)$ in PC12 cells. These results suggest that liriodenine inhibited dopamine biosynthesis and L-DOPA-induced increase in dopamine content by reducing the activities of tyrosine hydroxylase and aromatic L- amino acid decarboxylase in PC12 cells.

A chiral stationary phase derived from (S)-N-(3,5-dinitrobenzoyl)leucine N-phenyl N-alkyl amide (CSP 2) was applied in separating the two enantiomers of various π-basic aromatic derivatives of leucine N-propyl amide in order to evaluate π-basic aromatic groups as an effective derivatizing group for the resolution of a-amino acids. Subsequently N-(3,5-dimethoxybenzoyl) group was found to be very effective as a π-basic aromatic derivatizing group. Based on these results, N-(3,5-dimethoxybenzoyl) derivatives of various a-amino N-propyl amides, N,N-diethyl amides and esters were resolved on the CSP derived from (S)-N-(3,5-dinitrobenzoyl) leucine N-phenyl N-alkyl amide (CSP 2) and the resolution results were compared with those on the CSP derived from (S)-N-(3,5-dinitrobenzoyl)leucine N-alkyl amide (CSP 1). The enantioselectivities exerted by CSP 2 were much greater than those exerted by CSP 1. In addition, racemic N-(3,5-dimethoxybenzoyl)-a-mino N,Ndiethyl amides were resolved much better than the corresponding N-(3,5-dimethoxybenzoyl)-a-mino N-propyl amides and esters on both CSPs. Based on these results, a chiral recognition mechanism utilizing the π-π donor-acceptor interaction and the two hydrogen bondings between the CSP and the analyte was proposed.

The effects of alachlor [2-chloro-2', 6' diethyl-N-(methoxymethyl) acetanilide] treatment on nucleic acid, amino acid and protein synthesis were studied. The amide herbicide alachlor blocks the biosynthesis of the amino acids isoleucine, valine and aromatic amino acid in oat root tips. Nucleic acid was inhibited, but was not proportional to reduction in protein synthesis. $1{\times}10^{-4}M$ of alachlor treatment of oat roots inhibited 36% DNA synthesis, but DNA synthesis was not inhibited at $1{\times}10^{-5}M$. RNA synthesis was inhibited by $1{\times}10^{-5}M$ and $1{\times}10^{-4}M$ of alachlor 16 and 27%, respectively, while inhibition of protein synthesis did occur at same concentrations. Inhibition of protein synthesis also did not occur at concentration below $1{\times}10^{-4}M$ alachlor. It suggest that inhibition of protein sythesis caused significantly by alachlor($1{\times}l0^{-3}M$) result from secondary action.

A putative ${\omega}$-aminotransferase gene, cc3143 (aptA), from Caulobacter crescentus was screened by bioinformatical tools and overexpressed in E. coli, and the substrate specificity of the ${\omega}$-aminotransferase was investigated. AptA showed high activity for short-chain ${\beta}$-amino acids. It showed the highest activity for 3-amino-n-butyric acid. It showed higher activity toward aromatic amines than aliphatic amines. The 3D model of the ${\omega}$-aminotransferase was constructed by homology modeling using a dialkylglycine decarboxylase (PDB ID: 1DGE) as a template. Then, the ${\omega}$-aminotransferase was rationally redesigned to increase the activity for 3-amino-3-phenylpropionic acid. The mutants N285A and V227G increased the relative activity for 3-amino-3-phenylpropionic acid to 3-amino-n-butyric acid by 11-fold and 3-fold, respectively, over that of wild type.

아미노산이 김치유산균에 미치는 영향을 검토하였다. 발효온도 $15^{\circ}C$에서 형태가 다른 집락을 73개 분리하였다. 이 중에서 69.9%가 덱스트란 생성균주이었으며, Leuconostoc 속이 4.1%, Lactobacillus 속이 65.8%를 차지하였다. Tyrosine 500 ppm이 되도록 첨가한 배지에서 분리균주의 생장은 완전히 억제되었다. 그러나 실제로 이 아미노산을 첨가하여 만든 김치에서 분리된 총 집락수는 58개 이었고, 이 중에서 덱스트란 생성균주가 70.7%로 큰 변동이 없었으나 대신에 Leuconostoc 속이 41.4%로 증가하였고, Lactobacillus 속은 29.3%로 감소하였다. 각 속에서 우점종은 Leu. mesenteroides와 Lac. minor이었다. 따라서 실제 김치에서 tyrosine은 Lactobacillus 속의 생장을 억제하는 효과가 있었다.
