The expression of genes induced by Dichloroacetate (DCA) treatment was analyzed by mRNA differential display. Purified total RNAs from rat liver treated with saline or DCA (100 mg/100 g b.w.) were reverse transcribed by using a set of oligonucleotide primers. The PCR products were resolved on a denaturing sequencing gel. PCR band representing mRNA expressed specifically in DCA-treated liver was excised and reamplified by PCR. A 120-bp c-DNA clone named IC1 was isolated and the DNA sequence of IC1 was analyzed. IC1 revealed 50% homology with 3' end of a mouse fibroblast growth factor mRNA This result indicates that DCA induces the expression of a gene which has a 50% homology with a Mouse fibroblast growth factor, and expression of this gene might be involved in non genotoxic process caused by DCA.

Exposure of seedling of rice (Oriza sativa cv.Dongin) to cold stress ($6^{circ}C$, 7day) induced differential gene expression. Differentially expressed polyadenylated RNA induced by low temperature were isolated and identified from the leaves of rice (Oriza sativa cv.Dongin) seedling by using the technique, differential display of reverse transcription through polymerase chain reaction (DDRT-PCR). Four bands of cDNAs were differentially displayed on the PAGE gel through DDRT-PCR, and among them three bands were those of overexpressed genes while one band was of an underexpressed gene One of the overexpressed cDNA was characterized. The size of the DDRT-PCR product was found to be about 200 bp. The sequence of the cloned DNA was compared with those of GenBank through a BLAST E-Mail server, and it was found to have no homologies in the nucleotide sequence with that of any known DNA: therefore, it was designated as RC101 The expression of the cold-stress induced-gene, RC101, was sustained with Northern Blot analysis by using the cloned DDRT-PCR product as a probe.

Ordered differential display using RT-PCR (ODD-PCR) was conducted to have a profile of the differently expressed genes between a hypovirulent strain of Cryphonectria parasitica (UEP1) and its isogenic wild type strain (EP155/2). ODD-PCR has advantages of high sensitivity, reproducibility, proportional representation, and limited number of primer combinations comparing with other differential display methods. RNAs were prepared from 1 and 5 day liquid culture of both hypovirulent and wild type strains, and were further evaluated with the marker genes of C. parasitica such as cryparin and mating factor MF2-1, which were already proven to be specifically down-regulated by the presence of mycovirus CHV1-713. ODD-PCR was conducted using those RNAs and expressed genes were categorized to five groups according to their temporal and quantitative expression patterns. Those fives groups are CPC, CPE, CPL, CPD, and CPU which represent constitutively-expressed, early-expressed, late-expressed, down-regulated, and up-regulated, respectively. Ninety two primer combinations out of a total of 192 have been tested so far. Among the twenty to fifty distinct bands per each reaction, an average of four to ten genes was identified as viral-regulated fungal genes. Those viral-specifc genes were further analyzed by DNA sequencing followed by homology search. Characterization of 30 clones including all five groups were conducted as a preliminary data and more are under investigation.

법랑아세포종은 1868년에 처음 보고된 이래 명칭, 발생기전, 분류 그리고 치료 방법 등에 관하여 수 많은 논란이 있어 왔는데 이는 법랑세포종이 양성종양임에도 불구하고 종양자체의 진행이 파괴적이고, 외과적 처치를 한 후에도 재발이 잘되며, 흔하지는 않지만 악성종양과 유사하게 전이를 보이는 등 독특한 특성을 지니고 있기 때문이다. 정상세포와 암 세포 간에 차이를 보이는 유전자 혹은 정상세포에서 변형이 일어날 때 특이적으로 발현하는 유전의 분리 및 분석하는 것은 암세포의 생성과정을 이해하는데 있어서 중요한 열쇠를 제공할 수 있다. 이에 본 연구는 RNA differential display 방법 중 재연성과 반복성이 개선된 Ordered differential display(ODD)RT-PCR과 보다 개선된 $GeneFishing^{TM}$기술을 이용하여 악성과 양성종양 사이의 유전자 발현의 차이를 조사하고, 특이 유전자의 profile을 확보하고자 하였다. $GeneFishing^{TM}$기술과 RT-PCR을 수행한 결과 nasopharyngeal carcinoma gene을 제외한 9개의 유전자는 악성에서 특이적으로 발현되는 것을 확인하였다. 따라서 $GeneFishing^{TM}$을 이용하면 각 시료간의 mRNA 상에서 발현차이를 보이는 DEG를 비교 분석하면 암관련 유전자, 항생제 태성 유전자, 그리고 분화 관련 유전자들에 대한 연구가 용이하게 수행할 수 있을 것으로 생각된다.

Rehmannia glutinosa is a perennial medicinal plant belonging to the family Scrophulariaceae with more than 300 species known in the world, especially in temperate regions. Its roots have been used widely in Korea for medicinal purposes. However, it is commonly infected by various pathogens during storage, causing great damage to the roots, and impedes the intensive farming of the crop. Therefore, an attempt has been made to isolate and screen a resistance gene against the pathogen Fusarium oxysporum using differential display. We treated salicylic acid(SA), and isolated a resistance gene that responds to SA. As a result, we found that SA was involved in plant defense mechanism in pathogenicity tests with SA treated and non-treted plants, and we isolated a partial PR-la gene through differential display polymerase chain reaction(DD-PCR) method.

DNA and RNA quantifications are widely used in biological and biomedical research. In the last ten years, many technologies have been developed to enable automated and high-throughput analyses. In this review, we first give a brief overview of how DNA and RNA quantifications are carried out. Then, five technologies (microarrays, SAGE, differential display, real time PCR and real competitive PCR) are introduced, with an emphasis on how these technologies can be applied and what their limitations are. The technologies are also evaluated in terms of a few key aspects of nucleic acids quantification such as accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, cost and throughput.

본 연구는 성장 속도 및 서로 다른 육질 특성을 지닌 돼지 품종을 이용하여, 육질 및 성장에 관련된 유전자원을 확보하고, 이를 이용한 유전 육종의 기초 자료를 제공하기 위하여 수행하였다. Differential display (DD) RT-PCR 기법을 통해 돼지 품종 간 발현 차이를 보이는 유전자인 NADH dehydrogenase 1과 ATPase 6를 동정하였다. 동정된 유전자의 발현량 분석을 위한 RT-PCR 결과, 각 유전자의 발현량이 재래돼지에서 외래 품종 (랜드레이 스 및 요크셔)에 비해 2배 이상 높음을 확인 할 수 있었다 (p<0.01). 이러한 발현차이 유전자를 이용하여 육질과의 관련성 연구 및 유전자의 기능에 대한 연구가 지속되어야 할 것이다.

To find the candidate genes concerned with ovulation rate of sheep, Differential Display Reverse Transcription Polymerase Chain Reaction was employed to find the differently expressed cDNA controlling ovulation in the Small Tail Han sheep of polyembryony and in Tan sheep of single birth. Twenty-four primer pairs of three anchored primers and eight arbitrary primers were assembled to amplify the specialized bands from these sheep. Positive cross tests were applied to optimize the ascertainable PCR conditions in which different special bands can be identified by silver strain in one PCR tube. After eliminating the false positive PCR products by Northern hybridization, 24 differential display bands were acquired from the ovary in the Small Tail Han sheep. These EST bands were sequenced and 18 different ESTs were found in which five ESTs had several copies and 13 ESTs had only one copy. Comparing these ESTs with homologous sequences by BLAST in the GenBank, there were six ESTs with known open reading frame (ORF) and function, three ESTs with known ORF and no function, and 9 ESTs without homologous sequence. These ESTs partly represent several genes such as NOS2, tensin, TCRA, CDKN1A, ESR1 and ACTB which express especially in Small Tail Han sheep.

Differential Display PCR technique (DD-PCR) was used for the analysis of altered gene expression in hemocytes of Vibrio harveyi-infected Penaeus monodon. Forty-four combinations of arbitrary and oligo(dT) primers were used to screen for differentially expressed genes. A total of 79 differentially expressed bands could be identified from 33 primer combinations. These included 48 bands (61%) whose expression level increased and 31 bands (39%) decreased after V. harveyi challenge. Subsequently, forty-eight differential display fragments were successfully reamplified and cloned. A total of 267 clones were randomly selected and sequenced. The sequence analysis showed that 85 (31%) out of 267 clones were matched with sequences in the GenBank database which represented 24 different genes with known functions. Among the known genes, glucose transporter 1, interferon-related developmental regulator 1, lysozyme, profilin, SERPINB3, were selected for further confirmation of their differentially expression patterns by real-time PCR. The results showed increasing in expression level of the selected genes in shrimp hemocytes after microbial challenge suggesting the involvement of such genes in bacterial response in shrimp. The anti-lipopolysaccharide factor type 3 (ALFPm3) gene, previously reported in P. monodon (Supungul et al., 2002) was found among the up-regulated genes but diversity due to amino acid changes was observed. Increase in ALFPm3 transcripts upon V. harveyi injection is in accordance with that found in the previous study.
