Carbonic anhydrase is essential for the cellular transportation of hydrogen and bicarbonate ions and plays a key role in a wide variety of physiological processes. Rainbow trout, Oncorhynchus mykiss is an important freshwater fish in aquaculture industry and is known to be one of the most susceptible species to environmental contamination. In this study, carbonic anhydrase was detected in the kidney and intestine of rainbow trout. Carbonic anhydrase was isolated from cytosolic proteins and identified by using SDS-PAGE, isoelectric focusing, and immunohistochemical methods. A specific protein band with molecular weight of 30 kDa and pI of 7.0 was detected by Western blotting. The immunohistochemical results showed that carbonic anhydrase was located at various cells in the kidney and intestine of rainbow trout.

Carbonic anhydrase (CA)는 생물체 내에 널리 존재하는 아연(Zinc)을 함유한 금속성효소(metalloenzyme)이다. 이는 생리학적 조건에서 주로 $CO_2$의 hydration과 bicarbonate의 dehydration의 반응을 촉매하는 기능을 한다. 이러한 CA는 거의 모든 생물체 내에서 발견되고 16개 이상의 동질효소들이 포유류에서 분리되었다. 반면 포유류와 달리 포유류가 아닌 생물체, 특히 어류와 해양생물에 대한 CA와 그에 대한 동질효소에 관한 자료는 매우 제한적이다. 어류 내에서 CA는 삼투압과 산-염기 평형을 조절하는 매우 중요한 효소로 알려져 있으며, 또한 어류 내 조직 중의 하나인 아가미는 산-염기 조절, 이온 교환, 생체 내 pH 조절 등을 수행하는 부위로 알려져 있다. 실험생물인 무지개송어는 국내 해양 양식 산업 분야에 있어서 매년마다 그 생산량이 증가하는 매우 중요한 해양자원이다. 게다가 환경 독성 연구 분야에 있어서 그 실험적인 가치가 인정되어 국내 외에서 실험동물로 널리 이용되고 있는 어류이다. 아가미 조직에서 분리한 단백질에서 분자량 30 kDa, 등전점 7.0의 위치에 해당하는 특이적인 band 가 형성된 모습을 관찰할 수 있었고 이는 확인 결과 CA인 것으로 판명되었다. 또한 CA의 존재여부가 확인된 아가미 조직 내에서 세부적인 발현 위치를 파악하기 위해 진행한 면역조직화학 실험 결과 CA가 아가미의 상피세포내에 존재하는 것을 파악 할 수 있었다.

본 논문에서는 삼세기(Shaggy sea raven, Hemitripterus villosus)를 실험 재료로 선택하여 Carbonic Anhydrase Isozymes (CAs) 중의 하나인 CA III에 대한 연구를 SDS-PAGE, Isoelectric Focusing (IEF), Western blot analysis의 방법을 통하여 진행하였다. SDS-PAGE와 Western blot 결과 삼세기 아가미, 혈액, 장, 간, 신당, 근육, 심장조직에서 CA III의 분자량인 30 kDa의 band가 확인되었다. 삼세기의 근육과 아가미에 대한 등전점 전기영동(IEF)과 Western blot analysis 결과 pI 7.0 부근에서 band가 형성되는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 특히 SDS-PAGE와 IEF 실험결과 삼세기의 아가미 조직에서 CA III의 발현량이 다른 조직들에 비하여 우세하게 나타났다. 이는 아가미가 다른 조직들과 달리 어류의 생체기관 중 유일하게 외부와 직접 접촉이 가능한 조직으로서 활성산소에 대한 손상을 최소화하기 위한 것으로 사료된다.

A new interface for coupling CIEF and MS using a four-way cross has been developed in a single mechanical system. This new interface could be operated without the electric discontinuity and reinstallation of lines. Additionally, a bare fused silica capillary was facilitated as a spray needle to produce electrospray and to guide catholyte or sheath liquid. Focusing for CIEF was completed in a hanging droplet at the end of spray needle. This capillary spray needle also provided stable spray, enhanced the ionization efficiency and increased sensitivity. Results with carbonic anhydrase I showed that focusing and spraying were well completed with the new interface and the new spray needle.

Carbonic anhydrase III (CA3) is a member of a multigene family that encode carbonic anhydrase isozymes. In this study, a complete coding sequence of the pig CA3 gene which encodes a 260 amino-acid protein was determined. The amino acid comparison showed high sequence similarities with previously identified human (86.5%) CA3 gene and mouse (91.5%) Car3 gene. The partial genomic DNA sequences were also investigated. The length of intron 1 was 727 bp. Comparative sequencing of three pig breeds revealed that there was a T${\rightarrow}$C substitution at position 363 within intron 1. The substitution was situated within a NcoI recognition site and was developed as a PCR-restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) marker for further use in population variation investigations and association analysis. Two alleles (A and B) were identified, and 617 bp fragments were observed for the AA genotype and 236 bp and 381 bp fragments for the BB genotype. The polymorphism of CA3 was detected in 8 pig breeds. Allele B was predominant in the Western pig breeds. In addition, association studies of the CA3 polymorphism with carcass traits in 140 $Yorkshire{\times}Meishan$ $F_2$ offspring showed that the NcoI PCR- RFLP genotype may be associated with variation in several carcass traits of interest for pig breeding. Allele B was associated with increases in lean meat percentage, loin eye height and loin eye area. Statistically significant association with backfat thickness was also found; pigs with the AB genotype had much less backfat thickness than AA or BB genotypes.

Skeletal muscle contains slow and fast twitch fibers. These skeletal muscle fibers express type I and type II myosin, respectively, and these myosin isoenzymes have different ATPase activity. The aim of this study was to investigate protein profiles of bovine skeletal muscles by proteomic analysis. Fifty seven spots of distinct proteins were excised and characterized. The expression of sixteen spots was differed in longissimus dorsi muscle with a minimal 2-fold change compared to biceps femoris muscle. The majority of differentially expressed proteins belonged to metabolic regulation-related proteins such as glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase, triosephosphate isomerase and carbonic anhydrase 3. The real time-PCR assay confirmed an increase or induction of specific genes: RGS12TS isoform, GAPDH, triosephosphate isomerase and carbonic anhydrase. These results suggest that the expression of metabolic proteins is under a specific control system in different bovine skeletal muscle. These observations could have significant implications for understanding the physiological regulation of bovine skeletal muscles.

Protein tyrosine nitration is considered as an important indicator of nitrosative stresses and as one of the main factors for pathogenesis of inflammation and neuronal degeneration. In this study, we investigated various nitrosative modifications of bovine carbonic anhydrase II (CAII) through qualitative and semi-quantitative analysis using the combined strategy of Fourier transformation ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometry (FT-ICR MS) and ion-trap tandem mass spectrometry (IT-MS/MS). FT-ICR MS and its spectra were used for the search of the pattern of nitrosative modifications. Identification of nitrosatively modified tyrosine sites were executed through IT-MS/MS. In addition, we also tried to infer the reason for the site-specific nitrosative modifications in CAII. In view of the above purpose, we have explored- i) the side chain accessibility, ii) the electrostatic environment originated from the acidic/basic amino acid residues neighboring to the nitrosatively modified site and iii) the existence of competing amino acid residues for nitration.

In this study attempts were made to explore effects of the water and alcohol extracts of Junci Herba on the renal function of dogs. The water extract (in a dose 15 mg/kg, i.v.) and alcohol extract (in a dose 1.5 mg/kg, i.v.) elicited a diuretic response and produced a marked diuresis during bicarbonate infusion whereas no diuresis ensues during infusion of hydrochloric acid. The ratios of potassium and sodium excreted in urine $(K^+/Na^+)$, pH of urine, Cosm (osmolar clearance) and $C_{H_2O}$ (free water clearance) increased but hemodynamic states changed little with both extracts. All the observed facts can be best explained on the assumption that Junci Herba inhibits the carbonic anhydrase in the tubule. Thus it produces the effect by increasing urinary potassium and sodium.

We demonstrated the combined applications of online protein digestion using trypsin immobilized enzyme reactor (IMER) and dual tandem mass spectrometry with collisionally activated dissociation (CAD) and electron transfer dissociation (ETD) for tryptic peptides eluted through the trypsin-IMER. For the trypsin-IMER, the organic and inorganic hybrid monolithic material was used. By employing the trypsin-IMER, the long digestion time could be saved with little or no sacrifice of the digestion efficiency, which was demonstrated for standard protein samples. For three model proteins (cytochrome c, carbonic anhydrase, and bovine serum albumin), the tryptic peptides digested by the IMER were analyzed using LC-MS/MS with the dual application of CAD and ETD. As previously shown by others, the dual application of CAD and ETD increased the sequence coverage in comparison with CAD application only. In particular, ETD was very useful for the analysis of highly-protontated peptide cations, e.g., ${\geq}3+$. The combination approach provided the advantages of both trypsin-IMER and CAD/ETD dual tandem mass spectrometry applications, which are rapid digestion (i.e., 10 min), good digestion efficiency, online coupling of trypsin-IMER and liquid chromatography, and high sequence coverage.
