DL-seleno-methionine에 내성을 갖는 변이주, Cephalosporium acremonium MS-92는 무기황과 메치오닌의 Uptake rate가 모균보다 우수하였으며, 세포내에 과량의 메치오닌과 S-adenosylmethionine (SAM)을 축적하였다. 또 C. acremonium에서 무기황의 uptake rate는 시스테인에 의해 크게 저해되었다. Crude enzymes extracts에서 변이주 MS-92 는 cell내에 cysteine을 적게 형성하였다 즉, L.-serine sulfhydrylase 활성이 모균보다 낮았으며 세포내에 시스테인의 양을 간접적으로 알 수 있는 시스테인 분해효소인 cysteine desulfhydrylase 활성치 변이주에는 모균의 약 반이였다. 이상의 결과에서 C. acremonium에서 메치오닌을 만드는 효소들의 조절에는 A. nidulans와 비슷하게 시스테인이 관여한다는 것을 추측할 수 있었다.

Cephalosporium acremonium MAR-80, a strain of methionine analogue-resistant mutant, showed good activity of sulfate utilization as only sulfur source. The effect of methionine on the sulfate uptake system was investigated by using $Na_{2}^{35}SO_{4}$ as a tracer in the resting cell system. From this result, it was revealed that sulfate permease of this strain was less repressed and/or less inhibited by methionine than parent type. This deregulation was due to low actibity of methionine uptake, which was operated by somewhat simple diffusion. From these studies, it could by anticipated that the improved productivity of cephalosporin C and lower dependence of cephalosporin C production on methionine were related to increased uptake rate of sulfate.

Serum concentration of selenium were measured ; Studying 36 patients with Hepatoma. 19 with Hepatitis 15 with Liver cirrhosis and 67 Normal control to discover the correlation between serum selenum and cancer. And it have tested also the serum protein and albumin to compare the nutrition status by researching the same persons above The results of those two experiments are as follow : 1) The mean of each group of patients resulting from mearsuing the serum protein content showing 6.91$\pm$0.10g/dl in the patients with hepatoma 7.05$\pm$0.17g/dl in the ones with hepatitis 6.42$\pm$0.13g/dl in the ones with liver cirrhosis and 7.46$\pm$0.06g/dl in the normal control is all being within the normal range such as 6.0-0.8(g/dl) while the distribution is revealin 10.5%, 13.3% in the patients with hepatitis and liver cirrhosis which are below the normal range and 47.2%, 96.9%, 80.0% in the low range of normal one ; therefore in could see that patientsw compared with normal control are in low level in the serum protein content 2) The mean based on the consquence of serum albumin measurement is 3.74$\pm$0.11g/dl. 4.26$\pm$0.13g/dl 4.73$\pm$0.06g/dl in the patients with hepatoma hepatits and normal control which are in between the normal range such as 3.5-5.5(g/dl) except the patients with liver cirrhosis(3/05$\pm$0.12g/dl) while the distribution of the patients with hepatoma an liver cirrhosis is showing 27.8% 73.3% which are below the normal one and 55.5%, 52.6% and 26.7% in the patients with hepatoma hepatits and liver cirrhosis which are in the low area of normal range ; as a result It could find that patients. compared with the normal control are in low level in serum albumin measurement. 3) The mean consulting the serum concentration is 430.86$\pm$26.06$\mu\textrm{g}$/1, 192.37$\pm$18.15$\mu\textrm{g}$/1 186.73$\pm$23.99$\mu\textrm{g}$/1, 196.94$\pm$8.94$\mu\textrm{g}$/1 in the patients with hepatoma hepatitis liver cirrhosis and noramal control ; it shows 2.19 times increasing of serum selenium concentra-tion in the patients with hepatoma 'compared with the normal control and patients with hepatoma spread out at a still higher range in serum selenium concentration test. 4) The serum selenium concentration is not quite dependent on sexes and doesn't show any correlation with age, serum protein, serum albumin. The nutrition status of patients, rested on the results of those experiments, stays in low level, which is caused by that they are in low stage of serum protein and serum albu¬min. In serum selenium concentration, patients with hepatitis and liver cirrhosis, specially, show the condition as good as normal control's; while patients with hepatoma are indicating a significant increasing compared with the three groups, which can be reasoned into that there is a possibility for the patients to take selenium and chemotherapy or radiation treatment, and have high serum selenium concentration by poor excreting of seleno methionine, which is caused by low serum protein content And another thing can be reasoned is that the difference in origination mechanism hetween korean and western people. As a result, It showed that the correlation between serum selenium and seses, age, serum protein, and serum albumin neither exists nor affects on each other.
