AfsR2 과발현 S. lividans TK21을 이용하여 DNA microarray를 수행하였다. 그 결과, phosphate starvation과 관련 있는 42개의 유전자들이 up-regulated 되었으며, 특히 SCO4139 (pstB, phosphate ABC transport system ATP-binding protein)와 SCO4142 (pstS, phosphate-binding protein precursor)는 afsR2가 phosphate와 같은 nutrient starvation에 적극적으로 관여한다는 것을 나타내며, SCO4228 (putative phosphate transport system regulatory protein)은 기존에 수행되었던 2D-electrophoresis 연구나 afsS null S. coelicolor를 이용한 DNA microarray 연구에서도 공통적으로 보고되었던 유전자로서 phosphate lilitation에 대한 afsR2의 효과가 지속적으로 검증되고 있음을 뜻한다. 또한 afsR2 과발현을 통해서 sigma factor인 SCO2954 (sigL)과 SCO5147 (sigE)의 발현이 유도되었으며 두 유전자의 구조적인 특징을 고려해 보았을 때 afsR2가 RNA polymerase와의 linker로서의 역할을 추측해 볼 수 있다. 뿐만 아니라 whi 관련 유전자들의 발현 또한 afsR2에 의해 증가되었다. 이는 afsR2가 단순히 2차 대사물질 생합성 조절에만 관여하는 것이 아니라 형태적 분화에 작용함으로써 최종적으로 여러 2차 대사물질의 합성을 유도한다고 말할 수 있다. 이러한 결과들을 토대로 afsR2가 기존에 항생제 생합성에만 관여하는 global regulatory 조절인자가 아닌 방선균이 stationary phase로 전환되는 시점에서 형태적 분화에 영향을 미치고 phosphate limitation stress를 줄여주는 2차 대사의 key-factor regulatory 유전자임을 알 수 있다.

Chromosomal copy number changes (aneuploidies) are common in human populations. The extra chromosome can affect gene expression by whole-genome level. By gene expression microarray analysis, we want to find aberrant gene expression due to aneuploidies in Klinefelter (+X) and Down syndrome (+21). We have analyzed the inactivation status of X-linked genes in Klinefelter Syndrome (KS) by using X-linked cDNA microarray and cSNP analysis. We analyzed the expression of 190 X-linked genes by cDNA microarray from the lymphocytes of five KS patients and five females (XX) with normal males (XY) controls. cDNA microarray experiments and cSNP analysis showed the differentially expressed genes were similar between KS and XX cases. To analyze the differential gene expressions in Down Syndrome (DS), Amniotic Fluid (AF)cells were collected from 12 pregnancies at $16{\sim}18$ weeks of gestation in DS (n=6) and normal (n=6) subjects. We also analysis AF cells for a DNA microarray system and compared the chip data with two dimensional protein gel analysis of amniotic fluid. Our data may provide the basis for a more systematic identification of biological markers of fetal DS, thus leading to an improved understanding of pathogenesis for fetal DS.

Double stranded targets on the cDNA microarray contain representatives of both the coding and noncoding strands, which will introduce hybridization competition with probes. Here, the effect of double and single strands of targets on the signal intensity and the ratios of Cy5/Cy3 within the same slide were compared. The results show that single stranded targets can increase the hybridization efficiency without changing the Cy5/Cy3 ratio. Based on these results, a new strategy was established by generating cDNA targets with asymmetric PCR, instead of conventional PCR, to increase the sensitivity of the cDNA microarray. Furthermore, the feasibility of this approach was validated. The results indicate that the cDNA microarray system based on asymmetric PCR is more sensitive, with no decrease in the reliability and reproducibility as compared with that based on conventional symmetric PCR.

In post-genome period, the technique for identifying gene expression has been changed to high throughput screening. In the field of molecular nutrition, the need for this technique to clarify molecular function of the specific nutrient is essential. In this study, we have tested the zinc-regulated gene expression in zinc-deficient U937 cells, using cDNA microarray which is the cutting-edge technique to screen large numbers of gene expression simultaneously. The study result can be used for the preliminary gene screening data for clarifying, using monocyte U937 cell line, molecular Zn aspect in atherosclerosis. U937 cells were cultured in Zn-adequate (control, 12 $\mu$M Zn) or Zn-deficient (experimental, 0 $\mu$M Zn) ESMI media during 2 days, respectively. Cells were harvested and RNA was extracted. Total RNA was reverse-transcriptinized and synthesized cDNA probe labeled with Cy-3. fluorescent labeled cDNA probe was applied to microarray slide for hybridization slide, and after then, the slide was scanned using fluorescence scanner. ‘Highly expressed genes’ in Zn-deficient U937 cells, comparing to Zn-adequate group, are mainly about the genes for motility protein, immune system protein, oncogene and tumor suppressor and ‘Less highly expressed genes’ are about the genes for transcription, apoptosis associated protein, cell cycle, and several basic transcription factors. The results of this preliminary study imply the effectiveness of cDNA microarray for expression profiling of a singly nutrient deficiency, specially Zn. Furthur study, using tailored-cDNA array and capillary endothelial cell lines, would be beneficial to clarify molecular Zn function, more in detail.

In this study, an integrated microelectrode array was fabricated on glass slide using microfabrication technology. Probe DNAs consisting of mercaptohexyl moiety at their 5-end were spotted on the gold electrode using micropipette or DNA arrayer utilizing the affinity between gold and sulfur. Cyclic voltammetry in 5mM ferricyanide/ferrocyanide solution at 100 ㎷/s confirmed the immobilization of probe DNA on the gold electrodes. When several DNAs were detected electrochemically, there was a difference between target DNA and control DNA in the anodic peak current values. It was derived from specific binding of Hoechst 33258 to the double stranded DNA due to hybridization of target DNA. It suggested that this DNA chip could recognize the sequence specific genes. It suggested that multichannel electrochemical DNA microarray is useful to develop a portable device for clinical gene diagnostic System.

The determination of DNA hybridization reaction can apply the molecular biology research, clinic diagnostics, bioengineering, environment monitoring, food science and other application area. So, the improvement of DNA detection system is very important for the determination of this hybridization reaction. In this study, we report the characterization of the probe and target oligonucleotide hybridization reaction using the evanescent field microscopy. First, we have fabricated DNA chip microarray. The particles which were immobilized oligonucleotides were arranged by the random fluidic self-assembly on the pattern chips, using hydrophobic interaction. Second, we have detected DNA hybridization reaction using evanescent field microscopy. The 5'-biotinylated probe oligonucleotides were immobilized on the surface of DNA chip microarray and the hybridization reaction with the Rhodamine conjugated target oligonucleotide was excited fluorescence generated on the evanescent field microscopy. In the foundation of this result, we could be employed as the basis of a probe olidonucleotide, capable of detecting the target oligonucleotide and monitoring it in a large analyte concentration range and various mismatching condition.

High throughput analysis using a DNA chip microarray is powerful tool in the post genome era. Less labor-intensive and lower cost-performance is required. Thus, this paper aims to develop the multi-channel type label-free DNA chip and detect SNP (Single nucleotide polymorphisms). At first, we fabricated a high integrated type DNA chip array by lithography technology. Various probe DNAs were immobilized on the microelectrode array. We succeeded to discriminate of DNA hybridization between target DNA and mismatched DNA on microarray after immobilization of a various probe DNA and hybridization of label-free target DNA on the electrodes simultaneously. This method is based on redox of an electrochemical ligand.

An oligonucleotide microarray system was developed for the simultaneous detection of porcine epidemic diarrhea virus, transmissible gastroenteritis virus, porcine enteric calicivirus, porcine group A and C rotavirus. RNAs of the reference viruses and porcine diarrhea samples were extracted and amplified using one-step multiplex RT-PCR in the presence of cyanine 5-dCTP and hybridized on the microarray chip that spotted the virus-specific oligonucleotides. This system were approximately 10-to 100-fold higher in sensitivity than conventional RT-PCR, and the assay time was less than 3 hours. The relative sensitivity and specificity were 92% and 72.2%, respectively, based on 102 porcine diarrhea samples using RT-PCR as gold standard. These results suggested that the oligonucleotide microarray system in this study be probably more reliable and reproducible means for detecting porcine enteric viruses and that it could be of substantial use in routine diagnostic laboratories.
