  • 신체 동작, 얼굴 표정과 같이 아주 복잡한 생체 패턴을 인식하고 분류하는 인간의 능력을 모방한 정보처리 컴퓨팅 관련 연구가 최근 다수 등장하고 있다. 특히 컴퓨터비전 분야에서는 인간의 뛰어난 인지 능력 중 상황정보 없이 시각시퀀스에서 동작을 분류하는 기능을 통해 시공간적 패턴 코딩과 빠른 인식 방법을 이해하고자 한다. 본 연구는 비디오 시퀀스상의 동작인식에 생물학적 시각인지과정의 영향을 받은 생체 기반 컴퓨터비전 모델을 제시하였다. 제안 모델은 이미지 시퀀스에서 동작을 검출하고 시각 패턴을 판별하는 데 생체 시각처리과정의 신경망 구조 단계를 반영하였다. 실험을 통해 생체 기반 동작인식 모델이 인간 시각인지 처리의 여러 가지 속성을 고려했을 뿐 아니라 기존 동작인식시스템에 비해 시간 정합성이 뛰어나며 시간 변화에 강건한 분류 능력을 보임을 알 수 있다. 제안 모델은 지능형 로봇 에이전트와 같은 생체 기반 시각정보처리 시스템 구축에 기여할 수 있다.

  • In order to elucidate ultimate biological function of the genome, the model animal system carrying mutations is indispensable. Recently, large-scale mutagenesis projects have been launched in various species. Especially, the mouse is considered to be an ideal model to human because it is a mammalian species accompanied with well-established genetic as well as embryonic technologies. In 1990', large-scale mouse mutagenesis projects firstly initiated with a potent chemical mutagen, N-ethyl-N-nitrosourea (ENU) by the phenotype-driven approach or forward genetics. The knockout mouse mutagenesis projects with trapping/conditional mutagenesis have then followed as Phase II since 2006 by the gene-driven approach or reverse genetics. Recently, the next-generation gene targeting system has also become available to the research community, which allows us to establish and analyze mutant mice carrying an allelic series of base substitutions in target genes as another reverse genetics. Overall trends in the large-scale mouse mutagenesis will be reviewed in this article particularly focusing on the new advancement of the next-generation gene targeting system. The drastic expansion of the mutant mouse resources altogether will enhance the systematic understanding of the life. The construction of the mutant mouse resources developed by the forward and reverse genetic mutagenesis is just the beginning of the annotation of mammalian genome. They provide basic infrastructure to understand the molecular mechanism of the gene and genome and will contribute to not only basic researches but also applied sciences such as human disease modelling, genomic medicine and personalized medicine.

  • The objective of this study was to generate transgenic mice expressing human resistin gene by using the tetraploidembryonic stem (ES) cell complementation method. Human resistin gene was amplified from human fetal liver cDNA library by PCR, cloned into $pCR^{(R)}$ 2.1 $TOPO^{(R)}$ vector and constructed in pCMV-Tag4C vector. Mammalian expression plasmid containing human resistin was transfected into D3-GL ES cells by Lipofectamine 2,000, and then after 10-12 days of transfection, the human resistin-expressing cells were selected with G418. In order to produce tetraploid embryos, blastomeres of diploid embryos at the two-cell stage were fused with two times of electric pulse using 60 V 30 $\mu$sec (fusion rate: 2,114/2,256, 93.5%) and cultured up to the blastocyst stage (development rate: 1,862/2,114, 94.6%). The selected 15-20 ES cells were injected into tetraploid blastocysts, and then transferred into the uteri of E 2.5 d pseudopregnant recipient mice. To investigate the gestation progress, two E 19.5 mused fetuses were recovered by Cesarean section of which one fetus was confirmed to contain human resistin gene by genomic DNA-PCR. Therefore, our findings demonstrate that tetraploid-ES mouse technology can be considered as a useful tool to produce transgenic mice for the rapid analysis of gene function in vivo.

  • The maturity and spawning of the yellow goosefish Lophius litulon were studied using samples collected monthly from January to December 2018 from the coastal waters of Korea. We analyzed monthly changes in maturity stage, gonadosomatic index (GSI), total length (TL) at 50%, 75%, and 97.5% group maturity, egg diameter and fecundity. The spawning period was from January to June. The size of eggs spawned was between 0.30 to 1.28 mm. Fecundity varied between 328,314 to 1,624,783 eggs. The percentage of sexually mature females estimated from a logistic function was over 50% at 48.67 cm TL, 75% at 56.76 cm TL and 97.5% at 74.89 cm TL.

  • The maturation and spawning of red seabream Pagrus major were investigated using 1,014 samples collected monthly from January to December of 2018, in the South Sea of Korea. Based on monthly changes in maturity stage and gonadosomatic index, the spawning period was estimated to be between April and August, with peak spawning occuring from May to June. Fecundity varied between 228,996 and 4,544,948 eggs. The relationship between fecundity (F) and fork length (FL) in this species can be expressed by the equation F=0.4869FL3.9452 (R2=0.7448). Using a logistic function, the percentage of sexually mature females was estimated to be over 50% for fish with a FL of 35.3 cm.

  • 본 연구는 현악기에 사용되는 현악기용 도료가 현악기의 음향성능에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. 음향분석장치(FFT)를 이용하여 목재악기용 도료의 도막두께에 따른 음향적 성능을 평가하였다. 목재악기용으로 사용된 도료는 악기용 우레탄계 상도도료, 오일 스테인계 도료, 자외선 경화형 에폭시 도료이다. 형성된 도막의 음향적인 특성은 FFT 분석기에서 측정된 공명주파수와 댐핑값(damping factor)으로부터 동적탄성계수와 전단탄성계수를 계산하여 얻고, 밀도와의 관계와 탄성계수간의 관계를 통하여 도막의 두께에 따른 음향적인 특성을 측정하고 비교분석하여 상관관계를 조사하였다.

  • Proteomics is a useful approach to know protein expression, post-translational modification and protein function. We investigated the protein expression pattern and identity in chickens fed with the tissue culture medium waste after harvest of Korean wild ginseng (TCM-KWG) (Panax ginseng). Two groups (n=60/group) of day old broiler chickens were administered with 0 (control) and 0.8% (treatment) TCM-KWG through drinking water. After 5 weeks, we examined the protein expression pattern of fibularis longus and superficial pectoral muscle by Two-dimensional electrophoresis analysis. Interestingly, TCM-KWG treatment significantly increased five spot's density, and markedly reduced five spot's density in the muscles. We identified 10 proteins (desmin, myosin light chain 1, heat shock 25 kDa protein, collapsin response mediator protein-2A, alpha enolase, vimentin, actin alpha 1, my023 protein, pyruvate kinase and troponin T) by the matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization time of flight (MALDI-TOF).

  • Antimicrobial peptides/proteins (AMPs) are present in all types of organisms, from microbes and plants to vertebrates and invertebrates such as insects. The grasshopper Oxya chinensis sinuosa is an insect species that is widely consumed around the world for its broad medicinal value. However, the lack of available genetic information for this species is an obstacle to understanding the full potential of its AMPs. Analysis of the O. chinensis sinuosa transcriptome and expression profile is essential for extending the available genetic information resources. In this study, we determined the whole-body transcriptome of O. chinensis sinuosa and analyzed the potential AMPs induced by bacterial immunization. A high-throughput RNA-Seq approach generated 94,348 contigs and 66,555 unigenes. Of these unigenes, 36,032 (54.14%) matched known proteins in the NCBI database in a BLAST search. Functional analysis demonstrated that 38,219 unigenes were clustered into 5,499 gene ontology terms. In addition, 26 cDNAs encoding novel AMPs were identified by an in silico approach using public databases. Our transcriptome dataset and AMP profile greatly improve our understanding of O. chinensis sinuosa genetics and provide a huge number of gene sequences for further study, including genes of known importance and genes of unknown function.

  • 환자의 심미적 요구가 증가함에 따라 전치뿐만 아니라 구치부에서도 자연치아와 유사한 색조와 외형을 재현한 보철물에 대한 필요성이 증가하고 있다. 단일 지르코니아와 CAD/CAM 시스템을 통해 이러한 환자의 요구를 만족시키는 보철물 제작이 가능해졌다. 본 증례는 70세 여자환자로 전치부 보철물이 깨져서 보기 싫고 하악 구치부가 없어서 저작이 불편하다는 주소로 내원하였다. 하악 구치의 상실로 교합평면이 붕괴되었으며 과도한 치아 마모 및 수직고경 상실이 관찰되어 치아 상실 부위에 임플란트를 식립하고 수직고경 증가와 함께 지르코니아 고정성 보철물을 이용한 전악 수복 치료를 진행하였다. 치료 후 3년 간 이상적인 교합이 잘 유지되고 기능적, 심미적으로 만족한 결과를 얻었기에 이를 보고하는 바이다.
