  • Korean ginseng (Panax ginseng C. A. Meyer) is an representative medicinal herb. It is classified as an adaptogen, helping the body to adapt to stress, improving stamina and concentration, and providing a normalizing and restorative effect. However, cultivation and breeding of the plant is very difficult because it requires at least 4-year cultivation from seed germination to root harvest.(중략)

  • Phytophthora capsici is a pathogen on several economically important crops including pepper. In pepper growing areas in Korea, Phytophthora blight caused by p. capsici has been considered as the most serious problem in pepper production. The Oomycete attacks the roots, stems, leaves and fruits of the plant. To understand the molecular mechanisms involved in the disease development, the genes expressed doting pepper p. capsici interaction were explored by analyzing expressed sequence tags (ESTs). A complementary DNA (cDNA) library was constructed from total RNA extracted from pepper leaves challenged with p. capsici for 3 days resulting in early stage of symptom development. The comprehensive analysis on the single pass sequencing of over 4000 randomly selected cDNA clones with contig assembly, unique gene extraction, sequence comparison, and functional categorizing will be presented with an emphasis on the genes involved in plant defense and pathogenicity during disease development of the pepper Phytophthora blight.

  • Gene expression in five tissues of the abalone (Haliotis discus hannai) was investigated using an expressed sequence tag (EST) analysis. Randomly selected clones were obtained from cDNA libraries constructed with gill (GI), digestive diverticula(DD), hepatopancreas (HP), foot/mucus (FM) and rectangular muscle (RM). Of 1,235 clonesanalyzed (288 clones for GI, DD, HP each,166 for FM, and 205 for RM), 741 (60.0%) clones in total turned out to share significant similarity with the sequences from NCBI GenBank (less than 10/sup -3/ of e-values), 423 sequences showed poor similarity (> 10/sup -3/), and 71 sequences didn't match with any sequences in GenBank. The percent unique sequence (singleton) was ranged from 56.1% (RM) to 74.7% (FM) among libraries. On the other hand, overall percent singleton was 55.3% when all the ESTs from five libraries were assembled into contigs. Analysis of the organisms represented by the best hit for each EST (e-values < 10/sup -3/) showed that 23.8% matched with mammalian entries, 24.0% with mollusks, 14.4% with insects, 11.6% with fish and 26.2% with others. The expressed patterns differed among the tissues when judged by the categorization of the sequences from each library into 10 broad functional classes. In all the libraries, the class I (no hit o. poor similarity) was the largest category with an average of 40.1%. This largest class was followed by class V (general metabolisms) in DD (21.9%), GI (14.6%) and HP (16.7%), while the 'cell structure and motility'(class VI) was the second largest class in remaining two libraries (31.2% for RM and 9.6% for FM). The class IX (cell division and proliferation) was the smallest class in all the libraries (less than 3%). This report provides the first tissue-specific lists of expressed abalone genes, which could be a fundamental basis for genomics program of abalone species.

  • Some computational approaches are needed for clarifying RNAi sequences, because it takes much time and endeavor that almost of RNAi sequences are verified by experimental data. Incorrectness of RNAi mechanism and other unaware factors in organism system are frequently faced with questions regarding potential use of RNAi as therapeutic applications. Our massive parallelized pair alignment scoring between dsRNA in Genebank and expressed sequence tags (ESTs) in Caenorhabditis elegans Genome Sequencing Projects revealed that this provides a useful tool for the prediction of RNAi induced cosuppression details for practical use. This pair alignment scoring method using high performance computing exhibited some possibility that numerous unwanted gene silencing and cosuppression exist even at high matching scores each other. The classifying the relative higher matching score of them based on GO (Gene Ontology) system could present mapping dsRNA of C. elegans and functional roles in an applied system. Our prediction also exhibited that more than 78% of the predicted co-suppressible genes are located in the ribosomal spot of C. elegans.

  • 목적 : 자경경부암세포에서 polymeric chain reaction (PCR)원리를 이용한 suppression subtractive hybridization (SSH) 방법으로 방사선조사 시 차등 발현되는 유전자를 동정하고자 하였다. 대상 및 방법 : 자궁경부암세포주인 HeLa세포주에 방사선조사 전과 후 총 RNA와 poly $(A)^+$ mRNA를 분리였다. SSH방법으로 forward 및 reverse-subtracted cDNA libraries를 만들었다. 차등 발현된 유전자를 screening하기 위해 reverse Northern blotting (dot blot analysis)을 이용하여 각각의 library에서 88개의 클론을 선택하였고 Nothern blotting으로 확인 후 sequencing하였다. 결과 : screening상 176개 클론 중 forward-subtracted library에서 10개의 유전자가 reverse-subtracted library에서 9개의 유전자가 동정되었다. forward-subtracted library로부터 3개의 유전자가 Northern blotting에 의하여 확인되었고 이중 telomerase catalytic subunit and sodium channel-like protein 유전자와 1개의 ESTs (expressed sequence tags) 유전자가 방사선선량에 따라 증가하쳐다. 결론 : 본 연구를 통해 자궁경부암세포주에서 방사선에 의해 유도되는 유전자를 SSH 방법을 통해 동정할 수 있었다. 그러나 이러한 유전자가 어떤 생물학적인 기능을 갖고 있는지에 대한 계속적인 연구가 필요하다

  • Methylmercury (MeHg), one of the heavy metal compounds, can cause severe damage to the central nervous system in humans. Many reports have shown that MeHg is poisonous to human body through contaminated foods and has released into the environment. Despite many studies on the pathogenesis of MeHg-induced central neuropathy, no useful mechanism of toxicity has been established so far. This study, using of suppression subtractive hybridization (SSH) method, was peformed to identify differentially expressed genes by MeHg in SH-SY5Y human neuroblastoma cell line. We prepared to total RNA from SH-SY5Y cells treated with solvent (DMSO) and $6.25\;{\mu}M\;(IC_{50})$ MeHg and performed forward and reverse SSH. Differentially expressed cDNA clones were screened by dot blot, sequenced and confirmed that individual clones indeed represent differentially expressed genes with real time RT-PCR. These sequences were identified by BLAST homology search to known genes or expressed sequence tags (ESTs). Analysis of these sequences may provide an insight into the biological effects of MeHg in the pathogenesis of neurodegenerative disease and a possibility to develop more efficient and exact monitoring system of heavy metals as ubiquitous environmental pollutants.
