약용 식물로부터 여러 효소의 저해제를 탐색 하였다. 한국산 우롱차엽으로부터 80%의 아세톤 추출물을 Sephadex LH-20, MCI-gel, Fuji gel 등을 사용하여 분리하였고 이 화합물은 Anisaldehyde 및 $FeCl_3$에 붉은색과 청색을 나타내었다. 이 화합물의 유도체화에 의한 기기분석 결과에서 상부는 -(-)epicatechin로 하부는 -(-)epigallocatechin 3-O-gallate 결합된 dimeric proanthocyanidin 종류인, $epicatechin-(4{\beta}{\rightarrow}8)-epigallocatechin{\;}3-O-gallate$로 화학 구조가 결정되었다. Xanthin oxidase 저해 효과에서는 $50{\;}{\mu}mole$에서 62%의 저해를 보여주어 앞으로 통풍 예방 기능성 식품 신소재로서의 이용이 가능하다는 것을 확인하였다.

Several marine toxins with macrolide structure have been found to act on actin. One of these toxins is mycalolide B isolated from the genus Mycale. This compound belongs to macrolide antibiotics and consists of tris-oxazole with strong cytotoxic activity ($IC_{50}$: 10-50 nM for growth of L1210 murine leukemia cells). This compound was found to be an actin-depolymerizing agent with the mode of action distinct from that of the known actin inhibitor, cytochalasin D. Tolytoxin, a macrolide isolated from cyano-bacteria with similar chemical structure to mycalolide B, seems to have similar effect. Another macrolide compound, aplyronine A, showed the effects similar to those of mycalolide B. Although bistheonellide A, a dimeric macrolide, did not show a severing effect, it de polymerized F-actin and sequestered G-actin by forming 1 : 2 complex with G-actins. Swinholide A has a structure and effects similar to those of bistheonel-lide A. In conclusion, mycalolide B, tolytoxin, aplyronine A, bistheonellide A and swinholide A are the members of "actin de polymerizing macrolide" the mechanism of which is different from that of cytochalasin D.halasin D.

Here, we report the first biochemical and structural characterization of the hypothetical protein HP0902 from Helicobacter pylori, in terms of structural genomics. Gel-permeation chromatography and dynamic light scattering indicated that the protein behaves as a dimer in solution. Circular dichroism spectroscopy showed that HP0902 primarily adopts a $\beta$-structure and the protein was highly thermostable with a denaturing temperature higher than $70^{\circ}C$. Finally, the backbone NMR assignments were obtained on the [$^{13}C,^{15}N$]HP0902 and the secondary structure was determined using the chemical shift data. Additionally, the local flexibility was assessed via a heteronuclear $^1H-^{15}N$ steady state NOE experiment. The results revealed that HP0902 would adopt a compactly folded, all-$\beta$ topology with 11 $\beta$-strands. All of the results clearly support the notion that HP0902 belongs to the cupin superfamily of proteins.

The one-dimensional coordination polymers, $[Cu^{II}(L)(NO_3)_2]_n$ (1) and {$[Cu^{II}(L)(NO_3)]{\cdot}2H_2O}_{2n} (2), were synthesized from $Cu(NO_3)_2{\cdot}3H_2O$ and 2-[(pyridin-3-ylmethyl)amino]ethanol (L, PMAE) in methanol by controlling the molar ratio of copper(II) salt. Copper(II) ion in 1 has one pyridine group of PMAE whose an aminoethanol group coordinates adjacent copper(II) ion. As the pyridine group is bonded to neighboring copper(II) ion, 1 becomes a one-dimensional chain. Contrary to 1, the structure of 2 shows that the oxygen atom of ethoxide group is bridged between two copper(II) ions, which forms a dinuclear complex. Additionally, the pyridine group of PMAE included one dinuclear unit is coordinated to the other dimeric one each other, which leads to a one-dimensional polymer. Due to the structural differences, 1 exhibits weak antiferromagnetic interaction, while 2 shows strong antiferromagnetic interaction. Due to direct spin exchange via oxygen of PMAE 2 has a much strong spin coupling than 1.

Synthetic zinc chlorins possessing a hydrophylic polyoxyethylene chain at the 17 -position were prepared. An amphiphilic zinc chlorin possessing a single chIorin moiety showed absorption maxima at 675 nm in an aqueous medium, indicating that the zinc chIorin did not form large aggregates but a dimeric structure. In contrast, amphiphilic zinc chlorin dyads in which two zinc chlorin moieties were connected with a hydrophilic polyoxyethylene linkage showed red-shifted absorption band around 720-740 nm in an aqueous medium. The result indicated that the amphiphilic zinc chlorin dyad self-aggregated to form chlorosome-like oligomer.

A ${\beta}-galactosidase$ gene of Bifidobacterium adolescentis Int57 (INT57) was cloned using the shotgun method. The sequence of the ${\beta}-galactosidase$ gene existing in the sequenced 3,260-bp fragment showed higher than 40% homology with other bacterial ${\beta}-galactosidase$ genes. The expression in Escherichia coli suggested that the ${\beta}-galactosidase$ might have a monomeric, dimeric, or tetrameric protein structure. This is probably the first peer-reviewed sequence analysis of the ${\beta}-galactosidase$ gene of the genus Bifidobacterium.

Reaction of barbituric acid (BA), 1,3-dimethyl barbituric acid (DMBA) and 2-thiobarbituric acid (TBA) with cyanogen bromide and aldehydes in the presence of L-(+)-tartaric acid afforded a new route for the synthesis of stable heterocyclic 5-aryl-1H,1'H-spiro[furo[2,3-d]pyrimidine-6,5'-pyrimidine]2,2',4,4',6'(3H,3'H,5H)-pentaones which is a dimeric form of barbiturate (uracil and thiouracil derivative). In the reaction of 1,3-diethyl thiobarbituric acid (DETBA) the Knoevenagel condensation and then Michael adducts were obtained under the same condition. Structure elucidation is carried out by $^1H$ NMR, $^{13}C$ NMR, FT-IR and Mass analyses. Mechanism of the formation is discussed.
