This study was designed to evaluate the mutagenicity and the primary mutagenic mechanism of chloropropanols by using various genotypes of E. coli WP2, E. coli TK and E. coli GW series strains. Chloropropanols showed the low mutagenic activities in E. coli WP2s and WP2 establishing the following order; 2,3-DCP> 3-MCPD>1,3-DCP. As compared with E. coli WP2s, the decrease of mutagenic activity and the increase of survival rate in E. coli WP2 $(WP2s\;uvrA^+)$ suggest that DNA lesions produced by chloropropanols could be easily removed by excision-repair system. From the diminution of mutagenic activity and survival rate in E. coli CM611 (WP2s lexA), it was confirmed that the mutagenesis by chloropropanols was dependent on the SOS-repair system. This fact could be also confirmed from the result that both the mutagenic activity and survival rate in E. coli TK610 (umuC) were much lower than those in E. coli TK603 $(umuC^+)$. In the experiment to examine the possibility that chloropropanols might have effects on the LexA of SOS response negative regulator, there was no variation in ${\beta}-galactosidase$ activities of E. coli GW1105 $[lexA3\;(Ind^-)]$ and GW1107 [lexA51 (Def)] by addition of the compounds, indicating that chloropropanols do not have any effects on the LexA, itself.

By developing and using certain operators like those initiated by Burchnall-Chaundy, the authors aim at investigating several decomposition formulas associated with the $Kamp{\acute{e}}$ de $F{\acute{e}}riet$ function $F_{2:0;0}^{0:3;3}$ [x, y]. For this purpose, many operator identities involving inverse pairs of symbolic operators are constructed. By employing their decomposition formulas, they also present a new group of integral representations of Eulerian type for the $Kamp{\acute{e}}$ de $F{\acute{e}}riet$ function $F_{2:0;0}^{0:3;3}$ [x, y], some of which include several hypergeometric functions such as $_2F_1$, $_3F_2$, an Appell function $F_3$, and the $Kamp{\acute{e}}$ de $F{\acute{e}}riet$ functions $F_{2:0;0}^{0:3;3}$ and $F_{1:0;1}^{0:2;3}$.

The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of density, temperature, size, and grain direction on measurement of moisture contents (MC) of wood materials non-destructively. The MC of different sizes of solid wood, glulam, and CLT from larch (larix kaempferi, $560kg/m^3$) and pine (pinus koraiensis, $430kg/m^3$) were measured using the dielectric type and resistance type meters. The specimens were conditioned in the environmental chamber to be equilibrium moisture content (EMC) of 12 % and 19 %. When density setting in dielectric type meter was increased from $400kg/m^3$ to $600kg/m^3$, the MCs of specimen (S-L-100-E) were decreased from 13.4 % to 11.3 %. However, when wood group (WG) setting in resistance type meter was changed from WG1 to WG4, the measured MCs were increased from 9.2 % to 12.3 %. When temperature setting in resistance type meters was changed from 0 to $35^{\circ}C$, the MC was decreased from 17.0 % to 13.0 %. The MCs measured by dielectric type meter for larger specimens (S-L-100-E_11.3 %, G-L-240-E_11.7 % and C-L-120-E_12.8 %) were higher than those of small size specimens (S-L-30-E_8.7 %, G-L-150-E_10.3 %, and C-L-90-E_9.7 %). The MCs measured by resistance type meter for larger specimens (G-L-240-E_11.6 % and C-L-120-E_13.3 %) were also higher than those of small size specimens (G-L-150-E_10.4 %, and C-L-90-E_11.8 %). The resistance type meter was not affected by the grain direction but the dielectric type meter were affected by the grain direction. The MC measured by resistance type meter for G-L-120-E perpendicular to grain direction was 11.5 % and the measured MC parallel to grain direction was 11.3 %. The MC measured by dielectric type meter parallel to grain direction (12.1 %) was higher than that measured perpendicular to grain direction (10.7 %).

As fat consumption has increased in Korea , serum cholesterol concentrations have risen and the prevalence of atherosclerosis increased. The aim of the present study was to investigate the association among apolipoprotein E (Apo E) phenotypes, dietary fat consumption, plasma lipoprotein levels and fatty acid compositions of red blood cells in young healthy women. Seventy-one percent of participants had Apo E3/3, 14.9 percent had ApoE3/2 , 11.8% had Apo E4/3 and 1.2% had Apo E4.2. The subjects daily consumed approximately 1760kcal containing 29 energy % of fat. The ratio of polyunsaturated fat to saturated fat in a diet was 0. 73 . There were no significant differences of nutrient intakes according to Apo E phenotypes. Total cholesterol concentrations of subjects averaged approximately 160mg/dl , but 12 percent of them had over 200mg/dl, which is higher than the range recommended by the National Cholesterol Deucation Program. Notably, most subjects with 210mg/dl had Apo E4 isoforms. Subjects with Apo E4 isoforms had significantly higher total and LDL-cholesterol concentrations than those with Apo E3/2. Also subjects carrying Apo E4 isoforms tended to accumulated more fat in the body. Their BMI , WHR and arm fat area appeared to be how can arm fat area be greater no you mean grater, please check work vsage than subjects with Apo E3 isoforms, but not significantly. Fat intakes slightly influenced serum cholesterol levels. Myristic aicd intakes were positively correlated to serum total and LDL-choelsterol levels. Polyunsaturated fatty acid intakes were negatively correlated to serum total choelsterollevels. The results of 소냐 study suggest that , people with Apo E4 isoforms need to prevent the raising of serum total and LDL -cholesterol concentrations by reducing calorie and fat intakes and by maintaining a normal weight.

Bacteriophage E3 grows very rapidly and forms a large size plaque with a diameter of 1 cm. The promoter controlling the expression of the gene encoding the major capsid protein is thought to be most efficient. To find out this promoter, this gene was mapped in the genome according to the following procedure. The major capsid protein was purified from phage particle and the N-terminal amino acid sequence was revealed. Based on this sequence,a degernerate oligonucleotide probe was designed and used for screening of the genomic DNA fragments. From the DNA sequence of the selected clone, the gene encoding the major capsid protein was mapped at 70% of E3 genome. The expression of this gene was not sensitive to rifampicin which indicated the presence of E3's own RNA polymerase.

The purpose of this study was to determine the proliferative activity of the osteoblasts and fibroblasts in the midpalatal area and to investigate the adjacent periodontal tissues of individual tooth following rapid expansion of the palate. Ten young adult dogs, aged approximately ten months, were used in the experiment. The experimental design was consisted of 1 week expansion group(Group E1, 3 dogs), 2 week expansion group(Group E2, 3 dogs), 2 week expansion and 2 week retention group(Group E3, 3 dogs), and control group(Group C, 1 dog). For each group, expansion screw was activated one time per day(1/4 turn;$90^{\circ}$) following Hyrax-screw application. The experimental animals in each group were sacrificed at 1, 2 and 4 weeks following palatal expansion. Maxillary tissue blocks were obtained and prepared ior the histomorphologic and immunohistochemical studies. Light mcroscope, polarizing microscope, and soft X-ray apparatus were used in this study, and following results were obtained. 1. In polarizing microscopic study, the expansion groups(E1 & E2) showed blue color representing bone resorption and new bone formation in midpalatal suture area. E3 groups skewed less blue color compared to the E1 and E2 group. But yellow color increased by calcification in the E3 groups. 2. Immunohistochemical study revealed that positive responses of the osteoblasts to PCNA and undifferentiated fibroblasts to EGF in E1 group were somewhat increased. Positive response to PCNA and EGF were increased in fibroblasts and the osteoblasts forming new bone in E2 group. In E3 group, the positive response cell concentrated the periphery of edge of palatal process in both PCNA and EGF. 3. Throughout the expansion period(E1 & E2), light microscopic study showed the edges of the extensive resorption and new palatal processes, indicating bone remodeling within the suture. E3 group exhibited less remodeling of midpalatal suture area. E2 group and E3 group showed cementum formation and resorption at the apex of 3rd premolar and 1st molar E3 group exhibited extensive hyalinized zone on the cervical portion of buccal side of 1st molar. 4. Soft X-ray analysis of E1 group showed hypomineralized defect and microfractures in various parts of the suture areas when compared with control animals. There was no significant difference in the degree of mineralization in the midpalatal suture region between the C and E3 groups. Tooth axis showed tipping of 3rd premolar and 1st molar in the E2 group and E3 group. Based upon these experimental results, it is concluded that the undifferentiated mesenchymal cells always presented in midpalatal suture area following RPE. Differentiated osteoblasts and fibroblasts possess proliferating cellular activity until the 2 week retention period. The posterior teeth are tend to tip buccally as RPE force applied. Retention group exhibited irreversible response with severe hyalinized zone on the buccal surface of the first molar.

Dihydrolipoamide dehydrogenase (E3) is a member of the pyridine nucleotide-disulfide oxidoreductase family. Thr residues are highly conserved. They are at the active site disulfide-bond regions of most E3s and other oxidoreductases,. The crystal structure of Azotobacter vinelandii E3 suggests that the hydroxyl group of Thr that are involved in the FAD binding interact with the adenosine phosphate of FAD. However, several prokaryotic E3s have Val instead of Thr. To investigate the meaning and importance of the Thr conservation in many E3s, the corresponding residue, Thr-44, in human E3 was substituted to Val by site-directed mutagenesis. The mutant’s E3 activity showed about a 2.2-fold decrease. Its UV-visible and fluorescence spectra indicated that the mutant might have a slightly different microenvironment at the FAD-binding region.

The performances of the CRAYT3E and CRAYC90 were compared in the point of aerodynamics. The CRAYC90 with and without the highest vector option was run, respectively. The CRAYT3E was run with various processors (from 1pe to 32pes). The communication utilities of MPI and SHMEM were used to inform the boundary data to the other processors. The DADI Euler solver, which is implicit scheme and use central difference method, was used. The domain decomposition method was also used. As the result, the CRAYC90 with the highest vector option is 5.7 times faster than the CRAYT3E with 1 processor. However, because of the scalability of the CRAYT3E, the CRAYT3E with more than 6 processors is faster than CRAYC90. In case that 32 processors used, the CRAYT3E is 6 times faster than CRAYC90 with the highest vector option.

To maximize the production of aminoglycoside-3'-phosphotransferase of E. coli ATCC 21990 carrying R factor which encodes aminoglycoside-3'-phosphotransferase (APH(3')) phosphorylating the 3'-hydroxyl group of aminoglycoside, mutants M1 and M2, media composition and several factors affecting the enzyme production during fermentation were studied. Although the specific activity of APH(3') produced by a mutant M1 was increased as much as four times than that of E. coii ATCC 21990, the growth rate was decreased. The increase of the enzyme production was obtained by increased biomass during fermentation. A mutant M2 was obtained to increase the cell growth rate. Mutant M2 cells were cultivated with optimal media and pure oxygen gas in a fed-batch mode of fermentor operation. The specific activity of APH(3') was decreased, but total enzyme activity of APH(3') was increased as much as two point five times than that of mutant MI.
