In order to identify the protein(s) secreted into culture medium by the sool-l/retl-l mutation of Saccharomyces cerevisiae, proteins from the culture medium of cells grown at permissive (28$^{\circ}C$) and non-permissive temperatures (37$^{\circ}C$), were analyzed. Comparison of protein bands separated by SDS-PAGE identified a prominent band of 47-kDa band from a mutant grown at 37$^{\circ}C$. N-terminal amino acid sequencing of this 47-kDa protein showed high identity with enolases 1 and 2. Western blot analysis revealed that most of the cell wall-bound enolase was released into the culture medium of the mutant grown at 37$^{\circ}C$, some of which were separated as those with lower molecular weights. Our results, presented here, indicate the impairment of cell wall enolase biogenesis and assembly by the sool-l/retl-l mutation of S. cerevisiae.

Dietary fibers consist mostly of complex carbohydrates such as cellulose, hemicelluloses and pectins, and also included are carbohydrate-based gums or hydrocolloids exampled as alginate, carrageenan, galactomannan xanthan, etc. Due to structural diversity, dietary fibers can be classified by various ways i.e., source, plant function, solubility, charge and topology. Understanding on the plant cell wall structure is of primary importance, since physicochemical properties of dietary fibers are dependent on the existence patterns in the cell wall. Depending on the four distinct observational dimensions, the physical parameters of dietary fibers were discussed in terms of raw sources, bulky & complex plant cell wall materials, individually separated hydrocolloid materials and specifically designed materials. Each existence state possesses the distinct physical parameters governing a variety of physiological properties of dietary fibers.

In our previous work in transcriptional regulation of sugar, expression of genes encoding putative glycosyl hydrolases in Arabidopsis was induced by sugar starvation. They were annotated as b-galactosidase (At5g56870), ${\beta}-xylosidase$ (At5g49360) and ${\beta}-glucosidase$ (At3g60140), which belong to glycosyl hydrolase family that has a catalytic domain of polysaccharides. From the primary structure of deduced amino acid sequence, they were predicted to localize to cell wall. Further investigation of these cell wall hydrolases implicated that cell wall polysaccharides provide metabolizable sugars to nutrient allocation under sugar starvation.

Changes in reducing sugar and cell wall degrading enzymes during ripening of banana for 10 days were investigated. The amount of reducing sugar in bananas increased during storage at room temperature during the first 7 days, and decreased thereafter. However, starch content in banana decreased during ripening, and invertase and cell wall degrading enzymes such as cellulase, polygalacturonase and xylanase were most active after bananas were stored for 7 days at room temperature. When the bananas were stored at 4$^{\circ}C$, the magnitude of changes were much less than during room temperature storage.

To examine ripening in peach types, cell wall contents and polygalacturonase activity were compared in Changbang, Daegubo and Yumyung peaches. Among peach types, the hardness of Daegubo was the lowest. Yumyung peach had the highest content of alcohol-insoluble substances and Changbang peach of cell wall. The contents of total and insoluble pectic substances were little different between Changbang and Yumyung peach, while the lowest in Daegubo. Daegubo peach had the highest activity of polygalacturonase, Changballg and Yumyung peach in succession.

The chemical composition of differentiating xylem of Populus deltoides M. were investigated and compared with those from sapwood. The cell wall polysaccharides were extracted sequentially from a differentiating xylem and sugar composition was analyzed with G.L.C, H.P.L.C and gel chromatograpy. The pectin substance and hemicellulose are rich in the cell wall of differentiating xylem. The $H_2O$ extract polysaccharides from differentiating xylem were composed with xylose-glucose residues which seem to be xyloglucan and a pectin. The arabinogalactan and the mannan were extracted with $Na_2CO_3$ solution and also the xylan was extracted with KOH solution. Sugar composition of each fractions in gel filteration of purified $H_2O$ polysaccharide suggests that the xyloglucan can be extracted with $H_2O$ from differentiating xylem.

In order to clarify effects of phytohormones on the viability and the cell wall regeneration of protoplasts isolated from Nicotiana tobacum L. var. BY4, protoplasts isolated from mesophyll tissue were cultured on the Murashige-Skoog liquid media supplemented with auxin(2, 4-D, NAA, IAA) and/or cytokinin (kinetin, BAP, 2ip). Viability of protopplasts was higher in the culture medium containing auxin and cytokinin, especially in the combination of 2, 4-D and BAP. The effectual cell wall regeneration of protolasts was observed when theprotoplasts were cultrued on the medium supplemented with auxin alone, especially with IAA. Cell wall regernation started from 2-3 days after culture and was not detected at budding regions. When the protoplasts were cultured on the phytohormone-free medium, the viability of protoplasts dramatically decreased 4 days after culture.

The softening of the femented vegetables and the fruits was resulted from the degradation of pectin substances, cellulose, hemicellulose by polygalacturonase(PG), pectinesterase(PE), Cx-cellulase, $\beta$-galctosidase. The conversion of insoluble pectin to soluble pectin in cell wall-middle lamella was a major factor in the changes of firmness. Ca2+ was substantially increased firmness. However, Ca2+ could be removed from cell wall by chelating agents such as oxalic acid and citric acid. And Ca2+ was replaced with Na+ by ion exchange reaction. Ca2+ deficient tissue was vulnerable to attack by PG. Preheating treatment and Ca2+ addition is most effective in inhibiting the vegetable food softening and in increasing middle lamella-cell wall regidity, which PE activation by preheating treatment and Ca2+ addition could created more anionic carboxyl groups for cationic materials binding such as Ca2+ and chitosan and for polypectategel formation. Excessive demethylation by PE was associated with loosening of middle lamella cell wall components and softening.

Effects of IAA on the elongation and cell wall hlysocidase activities were investigated in excised rape (Brassica napus L. cv. Yongdang) hypocotyl segments. IAA promoted the elongation of rape hypocotyl segments. In rape hypocotyls, the first 10-mm segments from the hook exhibited maximal elongation and the capacity of elongation was gradually decreased with increasing distance of each 10-mm from the hook. A good correlation has been obtained between the magnitude of endogenous growth and the activities of $\alpha$, $\beta$-glucosidase and $\alpha$, $\beta$-galactosidase. However, exogenous application of IAA did not seem to enhance the tissue with IAA resulted in acidification of the incubation medium. From these data, we can conclude that IAA seems to enhance elongation of the tissue segments, at least in part, by releasing hydrogen ion into cell wall, some of which may participate in the cell wall extension process, but does not seem to trigger the activation of $\alpha$, $\beta$-glucosidase and $\alpha$, $\beta$-galactosidase.
