Water-soluble polyethyleneimine (PE) derivatives containing nucleic acid bases and hydrophilic amino acids such as homoserine (Hse) and serine were prepared by the activated ester method as nucleic acid models. From spectroscopic measurements, the polymers were found to interact with DNA accompanied by an induction of conformational change. Hypochromicity in UV spectra indicated that a stable polymer complex was formed between poly (A) with PEI­Hse-Ura by complementary hydrogen bonding with equimolar nucleic base units (adenine:uracil=1:1). The induced conformation of DNA by the interaction with the polymer containing uracil and homoserine (PEI-Hse-Ura) was concluded to be a super triple helical structure. The formation of the polymer complex, DNA: PEI-Hse-Ura, was found to be affected by the presence of metal ions such as $Ca^{2+}\;and\;Cu^{2+}$.

A synthesized 21-mer single-stranded DNA(ss DNA) was covalently immobilized onto a self-assembled aminoethanethiol monolayer modified gold electrode onto QCM. The covalently immobilized ssDNA was hybridized with complementary ssDNA. The interaction between surface immobilized ssDNA and complementary 21-mer DNA in solution was also examined. Each step was followed by monitoring changes in the QCM frequency with time. Also, PBS with pH 7.0 was selected as a supporting electrolyte in order to get maximum sensitivity and good bioactivity.

Saccharomyces cerevisiae Dna2 helicase/endonuclease는 진핵세포 DNA 복제과정의 Okazaki fragment processing에서 RNA primer를 제거하는데 필수적인 역할을 한다. Genome-wide scale의 면역침전 실험결과, 기능이 알려져 있지 않은 단백질인 YHR122W가 Dna2 단백질과 상호작용한다고 예측되었다 (1). 본 연구에서는 이를 확인하기 위하여 YHR122W 유전자를 효모에서 과량발현시킨 결과, $dna2\Delta405N$ 돌연변이의 온도감수성 표현형이 억제되는 유전학적 상호작용을 관찰하였다. YHR122W 단백질이 Dna2 단백질과 직접적인 삼호작용을 하는지 확인하기 위하여 YHR122W를 대장균에서 재조합 단백질로 발현시키고 단백질을 정제하였다. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay를 통한 분석에서 YHR122W 단백질과 Dna2 단백질 사이의 상호작용을 확인하였다. 뿐만 아니라 YHR122W-Dna2 상호작용은 생리적 염도인 150 mM NaCl농도에서 가장 강한 결합을 보였다. 이러한 유전학적 상호작용과 물리적인 상호작용은 YHR122W가 생체내에서 Dna2의 기능과 밀접한 연관이 있을 가능성을 제시하고 있다.

The work describes anoptimized process to highly efficient and convenient preparation in highthroughput magnetic human DNA separation with chemically functionalizedsilica-coated magnetic nanoparticles. The effect of nanoparticle's size and the surface's hydrophilicity change were studied for magnetic DNA separation process, inwhich the optimum efficiency was explored via the function of the amino-groupnumbers, particle size, the amount of the nanoparticles used, and theconcentration of NaCl salt. The DNA adsorption yields were high in terms of theamount of triamino-functionalized nanoparticles used, and the average particlesize was 25 nm. The adsorption efficiency of aminofunctionalized nanoparticleswas the 4-5 times (80-100%) higher compared to silica-coated nanoparticles only(10-20%). DNA desorption efficiency showed an optimum level of over 0.7 M ofthe NaCl concentration. To elucidate the agglomeration of nanoparticles afterelectrostatic interaction, the Guinier plots were calculated from small angleX-ray diffractions in a comparison of the results of electron diffraction TEM,and confocal laser scanning microscopy. Additionally, the direct separation ofhuman genomic DNA was achieved from human saliva and whole blood with highefficiency.

The DNA methylated by Hpa II methylase was not cleaved by Sma, I, Ava I and Nae I endonucleases. This experimental data could be interpreted as strong evidences that Sma I, Ava I and Nae I methylases which yet to be isolated would methylate on the inmost cytosine nucleotide within their hexameric recognition sequences. The facts that Sma I, Ava I and Nae I endonucleases can not cleave the DNA methylated by Hpa II methylase are the valuable informations for protecting DNAs upon cleavage reactions by Sma I, Ava I and NAe I endonucleases especially for cDNA insertion experiments into vector DNAs using Sma I, Ava I and Nae I oligonucleotide linkers. In the case of Xma I endonuclease, partially cleaved DNA fragments were observed although the reaction rate was greatly decreased. This result implies that the methylation site of Xma I methylase which yet to be isolated would not be the same as that of Hpa II methylase in Xma I sequence.

In order to obtain insight into the repair mechanism of DNA containing thymine photo-dimer, the conformation of the duplex d(GCGGTTGGCG).d(CGCCAACCGC) with a thymine dimer incorporated has been studied by proton NMR. NOE data show that, although the local environment around the thymine dimer is altered, the gross structural changes are relatively small. T$_4$endonuclease V exhibited a conformational change on complex formation with DNA. This conformational change occurred around histidine 16 which was close to tyrosine 129 located in the aromatic segment (WYKYY) near the C-terminus. It is likely that the interaction between T$_4$endonuclease V and DNA is strong since the complex was not dissociated up to 1.6 M NaCl.

The ruthenium(II) ferrocenyl heterocyclic thiosemicarbazone complexes of the type $[RuCl(CO)(EPh_3)]_2L$ (where E = P/As; L = binucleating monobasic tridendate thiosemicarbazone ligand) have been investigated. Strutural features were determined by analytical and spectral techniques. Binding of these complexes with CT-DNA by absorption spectral study indicates that the ruthenium(II) complexes form adducts with DNA and has intrinsic binding constant in the range of $3.3{\times}10^4-1.2{\times}10^5M^{-1}$. The complexes exhibit a remarkable DNA cleavage activity with CT-DNA in the presence of hydrogen oxide and the cleavage activity depends on dosage.

Pyrrole and DNA can be used for synthesis of conducting nanowires. Protonated pyrrole and negatively charged DNA are absorbed by electrostatic interaction. The level of absorbance is related to pH of pyrrole. Therefore, DNA immobilized and aligned on the 3-aminopropyltrimethoxysi1ane (APTES) modified Si surface. Positive pyrrole monomers was deposited on aligned DNA for the synthesis of nanowire in various pH condition. And polypyrrole nanowires were synthesized by polimerization with ammonium persulfate (APS). These polypyrrole nanowires were measured by AFM, and then we found optimal pH level for the synthesis of nanowires.
