The Baekdudaegan Mountain Range is home to a wide range of organisms inhabiting the Korean Peninsula. This study monitored butterfly communities of Guryongryeong (Myeonggye-ri) and Gojingkyeong (Seobyeok-ri) from April to September in 2013 to 2014, and the results were compared with previous data to determine changes in their distribution. We found 1,098 butterflies of 65 different species in Myeonggye-ri, and 1,161 butterflies of 63 different species in Seobyeok-ri. Comparing the two regions, 13 species appeared only in Seobyeok-ri and 15 species appeared only in Myeonggae-ri. When species were ranked according to number of individuals, the top species three species were as follows: Artogeia melete (127, 11.6%), A. napi (100, 9.1%), and Papilio maackii (90, 8.2%) in Myeonggye-ri; and Libythea celtis (146, 12.6%), A. napi (134, 11.5%), and Polygonia c-aureum (69, 5.9%) in Seobyeok-ri. The number of species with fewer than three individuals each was 24 in Myeonggye-ri and 23 in Seobyeok-ri, accounting for a high percentage among the total number of species. The similarities between the two regions were relatively high, and many of the butterflies are on the Red List of Korea. Compared with previous distribution data, there were no significant changes. This consistency indicates that the butterflies of the Baekdudaegan Mountain Range have been conserved well, and therefore the continuity in the Baekdudaegan Mountain Range is necessary to keep in the big picture.

A defective lambda transducing phase carrying acetyl CoA carboxylase gene (fabE) from Escherichia coli chromosome (72 min on the current linkage map) has been isolated. A restriction map of the chromosomal region from defective transducing phage was established by digestion with combination of the restriction enzymes. No cleavage site for the enzyme EcoRI was found in this region. Restriction fragments were cloned from defective transducing phage into high copy number plasmid vector pACYC184 to generate hybrid plasmids which were capable of complementation of fabE temperature sensitive mutation. We show here that the fabE gene is located on a 3.4 megadalton Bam HI-SalI fragment with a HindIII site, which lies within the 7.4 megadalton BglIIfragment, by complementation analysis.

It is compared the structures of the S-block in the Ba-Co-Zn Y-type hexagonal ferrites (Ba2Co2-xZnxFe12O22, x=0~2) and the Co-Zn spinel ferrites (Co1-xZnxFe2O4, x=0~1) expressed by a hexagonal axis system (space group R3m). The structures have been refined with a Rietveld analysis of the powder X-ray diffraction pattern with high precision (Rwp<0.13, RI<0.03). The overal dimension of the S-block is slightly different from the 1/3 of a hexagonal spinel unit cell as follow: 1.6~2.0% longer c-axis, 1.3~1.6% shorter a-axis and about 1% smaller volume. Upto Zn:Co=1:1 in the Ba-Co-Zn Y-type hexagonal ferrites, the zinc substitute primarily the tetrahedral sites in the S-block. Beyond that the zinc seems to go into the T-block as well.

This study was carried on the quality characteristics of cake prepared with Co(com oil) containing MCT(medium chain triglycerides), which is used as a fat substitute. In tile cake prepared with MCT-CO containing $10{\sim}30%$ MCT, the appearance and the degree of gelatinization were similar to those of cake prepared with NS-CO(non-substituted corn ell) Cake batter prepared with MCT-CO showed higher specific gravity and consistency than those of cake prepared with NS-CO and increased by increasing MCT contents. The baking loss of cake prepared with MCT-CO was more than that of cake prepared with NS-CO and increased by increasing MCT contents as well. The rheological properties of cake represented significant different by MCT substitution ratio(p<0.05). Gumminess, hardness and chewiness of cake prepared with MCT-CO containing $20{\sim}30%$ MCT were about 2 times higher than those of cake prepared with NS-CO, while springiness and cohesiveness showed similar pattern between the cake prepared with MCT-CO or NS-CO. In sensory evaluation, appearance. color and flavor of cake prepared with CO substituted by MCT up to 100% were better assessed and the taste was better in range of 30% MCT-CO but the texture was less accepted than that of cake prepared with NS-CO.

Soluble or cell-bound IL-1 receptor accessory protein (IL-1RAcP) does not bind IL-1 but rather forms a complex with IL-1 and IL-1 receptor type I (IL-1RI) resulting in signal transduction. Synthetic peptides to various regions in the Ig-like domains of IL-1RAcP were used to produce antibodies and these antibodies were affinity-purified using the respective antigens. An anti-peptide-4 antibody which targets domain III inhibited 70% of IL-$1\beta$-induced productions of IL-6 and PGE2 from 3T3-L1 cells. Anti-peptide-2 or 3 also inhibited IL-1-induced IL-6 production by 30%. However, antipeptide-1 which is directed against domain I had no effect. The antibody was more effective against IL-$1\beta$ compared to IL-$1\alpha$. IL-1-induced IL-6 production was augmented by coincubation with PGE2. The COX inhibitor ibuprofen blocked IL-1-induced IL-6 and PGE2 production. These results confirm that IL-1RAcP is essential for IL-1 signaling and that increased production of IL-6 by IL-1 needs the co-induction of PGE2. However, the effect of PGE2 is independent of expressions of IL-1RI and IL-1RAcP. Our data suggest that domain III of IL-1RAcP may be involved in the formation or stabilization of the IL-1RI/IL-1 complex by binding to epitopes on domain III of the IL-1RI created following IL-1 binding to the IL-1RI.

Background: Highly pathogenic avian influenza viruses (HPAIVs) is an extremely contagious and high mortality rates in chickens resulting in substantial economic impact on the poultry sector. Therefore, it is necessary to elucidate the pathogenic mechanism of HPAIV for infection control. Objective: Gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) can effectively avoid the limitations of subjective screening for differential gene expression. Therefore, we performed GSEA to compare HPAI-infected resistant and susceptible Ri chicken lines. Methods: The Ri chickens Mx(A)/BF2(B21) were chosen as resistant, and the chickens Mx(G)/BF2(B13) were selected as susceptible by genotyping the Mx and BF2 genes. The tracheal tissues of HPAIV H5N1 infected chickens were collected for RNA sequencing followed by GSEA analysis to define gene subsets to elucidate the sequencing results. Results: We identified four differentially expressed pathways, which were immune-related pathways with a total of 78 genes. The expression levels of cytokines (IL-1β, IL-6, IL-12), chemokines (CCL4 and CCL5), type interferons and their receptors (IFN-β, IFNAR1, IFNAR2, and IFNGR1), Jak-STAT signaling pathway genes (STAT1, STAT2, and JAK1), MHC class I and II and their co-stimulatory molecules (CD80, CD86, CD40, DMB2, BLB2, and B2M), and interferon stimulated genes (EIF2AK2 and EIF2AK1) in resistant chickens were higher than those in susceptible chickens. Conclusions: Resistant Ri chickens exhibit a stronger antiviral response to HPAIV H5N1 compared with susceptible chickens. Our findings provide insights into the immune responses of genetically disparate chickens against HPAIV.

실제 대화에서는 다양한 화자와 청자간의 사회적 위치와 관계 등의 사회적 변인에 따라 다양한 상대높임법이 존재한다. 제안하는 상대높임법 중심의 대화시스템 아키텍처를 설명하기에 앞서 배경지식 및 관련연구로 규칙/코퍼스 기반 대화시스템을 소개하고, 상대높임법을 포함하는 공손법처리에 대한 기존 연구들의 제약사항을 논의한다. 본 연구에서는 한국어 상대높임법을 정의 및 사회적 변인 모델링하고 이를 구현하기 위한 대화시스템 아키텍처 방안을 제안한다.
