  • 본 실험에서는 lactobacilli와 bifidobacteria에 의한 E. coli와 S. typhimurium에 대한 생육 억제능을 조사 하였다. 생육억제활성은 well disc assay와 turbidimetry method로 측정하여 비교하였다. 시험균주 10종 중에서 두 가지 방법 모두 평균적으로 높은 항균 활성을 나타낸 균주는 L. acidophilus La-5, L. acidophilus NCFM와 L. casei Lc-01인 것으로 나타났다. 선택된 3가지 유산균과 대표적 enteropathogen인 E. coli와 S. typhimurium을 각각의 혼합 배양하여 생균수를 측정한 결과 병원성균 생육억제는 생균수가 급격히 감소하는 배양 9시간 이후부터 나타났으며 30시간 혼합배양 후에는 병원성균의 생균수는 거의 존재하지 않았다. 실험결과 유산균의 항균활성은 pH 저하 만에 의한 것이 아니었고 유산균의 종류에 따라 생육억제활성에 차이가 있었다.

  • Antibacterial activities of powdered spices(garlic , ginger, cinnamon and clove) against pathogenic Escherichia coli )157:H7 and Staphyloccus auresus were investigated. Spice powder was added in was exponetial phase of each bacterial culture . Growth inhibition was determined by the absorbance at 660nm and morphological changes of the cells were observed by transmission electron microscope (TEM). Ginger powder has the highest antibacterial activity, following cinnamon , clove and garlic has the least activity.Growth of Escherichia coli O157:H7 and Staphyloccus aureus were completely inhibited within 5 hours after addition of 1 % of garlic , 0.3% of ginger or cinnamon , 0.5% of clove powder on the exponential phase of the cells. Spice untreated cells of E. coli and S. aureus, the cytoplasm was entirely surrounded by rigid cell wall and cell walls formed a smooth layer well attached to the plasma membrane. In the cells of E. coli and S. aureus treated with spice powder, cell wall and plasma membrane were lysed and severely damaged. E.coli cells growth in the presence of spice powder showed plammolysis, the loss of electron dense material, the formation of extra cellular blebs and cytoplasm burst out from the cell. S .sureus cells grown in the presence of spice powder showed swell of cell wall, the loss of electron dense material , coagulation of cell cytoplasm and formation of extra cellular blebs. Severely damaged cells of S. aureus lost whole cytoplasm and left as ghost of the cell. Spice powder stimulated autolyssi and induced cell death.

  • 대장균군 및 대장균의 정성실험에 건조필름을 이용할 수 있는지를 평가하였다. 대장균군의 정성실험에 있어서 lactose broth 배양법의 경우는 검출율이 가장 높은데 반하여 비교적 선택성이 낮고, 검출에 48시간이 소요되며, 실험 시마다 배지를 제조하여야 하는 등 번거로운 조작을 필요로 하였다. Desoxycholate lactose agar 평판배양법의 경우는 검출율이 건조필름보다 다소 높지만 유의적인 차이를 보이지 않는 정도이며, 실험시마다 배지를 제조하여 적당한 온도로 식혀서 분주하여야 하는 등 번거로운 조작을 필요로 하였다. 반면에 건조필름을 사용 할 경우는 검출율이 다소 낮지만 시료액의 균체농도가 1 cfu/$m{\ell}$ 이상에서는 E. coli KCCM11234의 경우 34.3%, E. aerogenes KCCM12177의 경우 67.4%, K. pneumoniae subsp. pneumoniae KCCM40890의 경우 58.3%의 검출율을 보이므로, 최대 3개의 배지에 접종하여 실험할 경우 시료 중에 대장균군의 존재 여부를 확인할 수 있는 수준이며, 선택성이 높고, 별다른 준비나 조작을 필요로 하지 않으므로 쉽게 대장균군을 검출하는데 사용할 수 있었다. 대장균의 정성실험에 있어서 EC broth 배양법은 검출율은 높으나 선택성이 떨어지며 실험조작이 번거로운 반면 건조필름법은 검출율이 다소 낮다. 시료액의 균체농도가 1 cfu/$m{\ell}$이상에서는 37.1%의 검출율을 보이므로 3개의 배지에 접종하여 실험할 경우 시료 중에 대장균의 존재 여부를 확인할 수 있는 수준이며, 선택성이 높고, 별다른 준비나 조작을 필요로 하지 않으므로 쉽게 대장균을 검출하는데 사용할 수 있었다. 단지 건조필름법은 균주에 대한 선택성이 높아서 손상된 균체의 검출이 어려웠으며 손상된 균체가 증식하는데 보다 많은 시간이 소요되므로 정확한 실험을 위해서는 대략 36시간 정도의 배양이 필요하였다. 전반적인 상황으로 판단해 볼 때 건조필름은 대장균군 및 대장균의 정성실험을 행하는데 있어서 현장에서도 손쉽게 실시할 수 있는 방법으로 기존의 방법을 대체하여 사용될 수 있을 것으로 판단되었다.

  • For understanding physiology and metabolism under various culture conditions, combined analysis of transcriptome and proteome is attractable way. We have manufactured DNA microarray containing 2,850 genes including all functionally known and putative ones. In this study, we report analysis of transcriptome and proteome during the high cell density culture of E. coli by using DNA microarray and 2-DE. Fed-batch fermentation of E. coli was carried out by exponential feeding of nutrients until the maximum cell density reached 74 g dry cell weight/L (g DCW/L). Changes in transcriptome and proteome during the HCDC are analyzed qualitatively and quantitatively to provide their physiological and metabolic meanings.

  • Heat-stable enterotoxin(ST) from enterotoxigenic E. coli eKT-53($ST^{+}\;LT^{-}$, transformant from isolate KM-7) that was produced in succinate salts medium. The culture supernatant(crude ST) was purifed by mulitpled steps and investigated some characterization of the ST. The heatstability of purified ST activity was completely lost by treating at $100^{\circ}C$ for 30minutes. ST activity was lost by treatment at pH 1 and 12 conditions, while the activity was not reduced by treatment at pH 2~10, and then the ${\alpha}-amylase$ and pepsin was not decreased activity but disulfide reducing agnets was lost the activity. The molecular weight of the purified ST was approximately 4,200, the isoelectric point was about 4.0.

  • Optimizing protein production in recombinant E. coli strains involves manipulation of genetic and environmental factors. In designing a production system, attention must be paid to gene expression efficiency, culture conditions and bioreactor configuration. Although not much emphasis was given to the physiology of host strains in this review, an understanding of the relationship between the physiology of host cell growth and the overproduction of a cloned gene protein is of primary importance to the improvement of the recombinant fermentation processes. Sometimes it is desirable to make use of gene fusion systems, e.g. protein A, polypeptide, gutathione-S-transferase, or pneumococcal murein hydrolase fusion, to facilitate protein purification.

  • Lycopene is a carotenoid widely used as a food and feed supplement due to its antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anti-cancer functions. Various metabolic engineering strategies have been implemented for high lycopene production in Escherichia coli, and for this purpose it was essential to select and develop an E. coli strain with the highest potency. In this study, we evaluated 16 E. coli strains to determine the best lycopene production host by introducing a lycopene biosynthetic pathway (crtE, crtB, and crtI genes cloned from Deinococcus wulumuqiensis R12 and dxs, dxr, ispA, and idi genes cloned from E. coli). The 16 lycopene strain titers diverged from 0 to 0.141 g/l, with MG1655 demonstrating the highest titer (0.141 g/l), while the SURE and W strains expressed the lowest (0 g/l) in an LB medium. When a 2 × YTg medium replaced the MG1655 culture medium, the titer further escalated to 1.595 g/l. These results substantiate that strain selection is vital in metabolic engineering, and further, that MG1655 is a potent host for producing lycopene and other carotenoids with the same lycopene biosynthetic pathway.

  • The skc gene encoding streptokinase (SK) with a molecular mass of approximately 47.4 kDa was cloned from Streptococcus equisimilis ATCC 9542 and heterologously overexpressed in Streptomyces lividans TK24 and E. coli using various strong promoters. When the promoter for sprT [Streptomyces griseus trypsin (SGT)] was used in the host S. lividans TK24, a 47.4-kDa protein was detected along with a smaller hydrolyzed protein (44 kDa), suggesting that posttranslational hydrolysis had occurred as has been reported in other expression systems. The casein/plasminogen plate assay revealed that the plasmid construct containing the SGT signal peptide was superior to that containing the SK signal peptide in terms of SK production. Maximal production of SK was calculated to be about 0.25 unit/ml of culture broth, a value that was five times higher than that obtained with other expression systems using ermE and tipA promoters in the same host. When the skc gene was expressed in E. coli BL21(${\Delta}DE3$)pLys under the control of the T7 promoter, a relatively large amount of SK was expressed in soluble form without hydrolysis. SK activity in E. coli/pET28a-$T7_pSK_m$ was more than 2 units/ml of culture broth, even though about half of the expressed protein formed an inactive inclusion body.

  • The objective of this study was to determine the minimum enrichment time for different types of food matrix (pork, beef, and fresh-cut lettuce) in an effort to improve Escherichia coli detection efficiency. Fresh pork (20 g), beef (20 g), and fresh-cut lettuce (20 g) were inoculated at 1, 2, and 3 Log CFU/g of Escherichia coli. Samples were enriched in filter bags for 3 or 5 h at $44.5^{\circ}C$, depending on sample type. E. coli cell counts in the samples were enriched in E. coli (EC) broth at 3 or 5 h. One milliliter of the enriched culture medium was used for DNA extraction, and PCR assays were performed using primers specific for uidA gene. To detect E. coli (uidA) in the samples, a 3-4 Log CFU/mL cell concentration was required. However, E. coli was detected at 1 Log CFU/g in fresh pork, beef, and fresh-cut lettuce after 5, 5, and 3-h enrichment, respectively. In conclusion, 5-h enrichment for fresh meats and 3-h enrichment for fresh-cut lettuce in EC broth at $44.5^{\circ}C$, and PCR analysis using uidA gene-specific primers were appropriate to detect E. coli rapidly in food samples.

  • 목적 : 요로감염은 가장 흔한 소아기의 세균감염증의 하나로 빠른 진단과 치료가 신장 합병증을 예방하기 위해 매우 중요하다. 저자들은 발열을 주소로 내원한 요로감염이 의심되는 24개월 이하의 신생아 및 영유아에서 Uricult Trio 검사의 간편 검사로서의 진단적 유용성에 대해 알아보고자 이 연구를 계획하였다. 방법: 2010년 1월부터 2010년 7월까지 한일병원, 경희의료원, 분당차병원 소아청소년과 외래에 발열을 주소로 내원한 24개월 이하의 환아 중 48시간 이내에 항생제 투여를 하지 않은 158명을 대상으로 하였으며 이중 검사를 위한 소변검체를 확보한 151례에서 Uricult Trio 검사와 소변배양검사를 동시에 실시하고 그 결과를 비교분석 하였다. 결과 : 대상 환아 중 요로감염으로 진단된 환아는 32명(21.2%)이었고 이 중 E. coli가 검출된 증례는 20례(66.7%)였다. Uricult Trio CLED 배지의 민감도와 특이도는 각각 59.4%, 84.8%였고 Uricult Trio E. coli 배지를 소변배양검사에서 E. coli가 동정된 증례를 비교한 결과는 민감도가 60%, 특이도가 96.2%였다. Uricult Trio CLED 배지검사와 소변배양검사간의 상관계수는 0.438 (P=0.01)이었으며 Uricult Trio E. coli 배지검사와 소변배양검사간의 상관계수는 0.617 (P=0.01)로 모두 통계학적으로 의미 있는 상관관계를 보였다. 결론: Uricult Trio 검사는 소아연령의 요로감염 원인균 중 가장 흔한 원인균인 E. coli를 빠른 시간 내에 동정할 수 있는 간편 검사법이다. 이번 연구 결과 이 검사방법은 기존의 세균배양검사와의 상관관계가 의미 있게 높으며 E. coli 에 의한 요로 감염시 특이도가 96.2%로 높아 요로감염이 의심되는 외래환자에서 질환을 배제하는데 도움이 되고 이로 인해 발열을 주소로 내원한 외래환아에서 불필요한 입원 및 항생제 사용을 줄일 수 있을 것으로 기대해본다.
