  • Cathepsins are members of the multigene family of lysosomal cysteine proteinases and have regulated function in several life processes. The potential role of cathepsin F cysteine gene was expected as protease in the yolk processing mechanism during early developmental stage, but expression analysis was unknown after fertilization. The alignment analysis showed that amino acid sequence of cathepsin F from olive flounder liver expressed sequence tag (EST) homologous to cathepsin F of other known cathepsin F sequences with 87-98% identity. In this study, we examined the gene expression analysis of cathepsin F in various tissues at variety age flounder. Tissue distribution of the cathepsin F mRNA has been shown to be ubiquitous and constitutive pattern regardless of age in each group, although derived from cDNA library using liver sample. The mRNA level of cathepsin F more increased as developmental proceed during embryogenesis and early developmental stage, especially increased in the blastula, hatching stage and 3 days post hatching (dph). As a result, it may suggest that the proteolysis of yolk proteins (YPs) has been implicated as a mechanism for nutrient supply during early larval stages in olive flounder.

  • We studied electronic structure of magnetic semiconductors EuO, EuS, and EuTe. The photoemission spectra show localized Eu 4f states and broad anion p bands. As the size of anion increases from oxygen to tellurium, anion p band width increases and eventually overlaps Eu 4f states. Hence in EuO and EuS, Eu 4f states are the highest occupied stated lying above anion p band, while Te 5p band spreads widely over Eu 4f states to become valence band maximum in EuTe. It was also observed that Eu 4f states have width of 0.7eV and dispersion of 0.2eV in EuS by angle resolved photoemission spectroscopy. The width of the 4f spectra mainly originates from atomic multiplets, but the much larger dispersion than that of Eu metal is due to p-f mixing.

  • The rapid quenching dynamics of F center excitation by OH- defects in KCl crystals are investigated by monitoring ground state absorption bleach recovery, using a picosecond streak camera absorption spectrometer. F center absorption bleach in OH--doped crystals shows three distinguishable recovery components with the current temporal resolution, designated as slow, medium and fast components. The slow one is due to the normal relaxation process of F* centers as found in OH--free crystals. The others are consequent on energy transfer from electronically excited F centers to OH--vibrational levels. The fast component is a minor energy transfer process and resulting from the relaxation of somewhat distant, not the closest, associated pairs of F* and OH- defects. The energy transfer between widely separated F* and OH- defects opens up a recovery process via the medium component which is assisted by OH- librations, lattice vibrations and OH- dipole reorientations. The quenching behaviors of F* luminescence and photoionization by OH- are explained well by the relaxation process of the medium component.

  • Flavanone $3{\beta}$-hydroxylases (F3H) are key enzymes in the synthesis of flavonol and anthocyanin. In this study, three F3H cDNAs from Oryza sativa (OsF3H-1 ~3) were cloned by RT-PCR and expressed in E. coli as gluthatione S-transferase (GST) fusion proteins. The purified recombinant OsF3Hs used flavanone, naringenin and eriodictyol as substrates. The reaction products with naringen and eriodictyol were determined by nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy to be dihydrokaempferol and taxifolin, respectively. OsF3H-1 had the highest enzymatic activity whereas the overall expression of OsF3H-2 was highest in all tissues except seeds. Flavanone $3{\beta}$-hydroxylase could be a useful target for flavonoid metabolic engineering in rice.

  • 무 시들음병에 대한 저항성 검정 체계를 확립하기 위하여 실험하는 과정에서 병원균인 Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. raphani가 무 유묘에 독성(phytotoxicity)을 일으키는 독소(phytotoxin)를 생산한다는 것을 발견했다. F. oxysporum f. sp. raphani KR1 균주는 여러 배지 중 malt extract broth 배지에서 배양하였을 때 그리고 $25^{\circ}C$에서 14일 동안 150rpm으로 진탕배양하였을 때 가장 많은 독소를 생산하였다. 무에 대한 독성 반응을 이용하여 F. oxysporum f. sp. raphani의 배양액으로부터 phytotoxin을 분리하였다. 그리고 Mass와 NMR Spectroscopy 분석을 통하여 이 화합물은 fusaric acid로 동정되었다. 독소의 역할을 규명하기 위하여 fusaric acid를 무, 양배추, 브로콜리 등 F. oxysporum f. sp. raphani의 기주 및 비기주 배추과 작물에 대한 독소 활성을 조사하였다. Fusaric aicd는 무 유묘에 대하여 농도 의존적으로 활성을 보였으며, F. oxysporum f. sp. raphani에 대한 감수성 품종뿐만 아니라 저항성 품종에 대해서도 유사한 정도의 독성을 나타냈다. 그리고 F. oxysporum f. sp. raphani가 생산하는 fusaric acid는 병원균의 비기주 배추과 작물인 양배추와 브로콜리에 대해서도 강한 활성을 보였다. 따라서 이들 결과는 이 독소가 병원성 관련 독소이나 비기주 특이적 독소이며, 무 시들음병 저항성 검정에서 이 독소가 제거된 포자현탁액을 접종원으로 사용해야 한다는 것을 나타낸다.

  • Propamidine, an aromatic diamidine compound, is widely used as an antimicrobial agent. To uncover its mechanism on pathogenetic fungi, Botrytis cinerea as an object was used to investigate effects of propamidine in this paper. The transmission electron microscope results showed that the mitochondrial membranes were collapsed after propamidine treatment, followed that mitochondria were disrupted. Inhibition of whole-cell and mitochondrial respiration by propamidine suggested that Propamidine is most likely an inhibitor of electron transport within Botrytis cinerea mitochondria. Furthermore, the mitochondrial complex III activity were inhibited by propamidine.

  • 목적: PET을 이용하여 도파민운반체를 영상화하는데 유용한 [$^{18}F$]FP-CIT는 그 동안 여러 연구팀들에 의하여 합성이 시도되어졌으나 합성의 난이성 때문에 문제가 되어왔다. 이 연구에서는 새로운 방법에 의하여 유효비방사능이 높은 [$^{18}F$]FP-CIT를 높은 수율로 합성하고자 하였다. 대상 및 방법: [$^{18}F$]Fluoropropyl기를 도입하기 위하여 사용된 3-bromo-1-[$^{18}F$]Fluoropropane은 THF 용매 하에서 3-bromo-propyl-1-triflate $5{\mu}L$$nBu_4N^{18}F$$80^{\circ}C$에서 2분 동안 가열하여 얻어졌으며 정제하지 않고 직접 알킬화반응에 사용하였다. 이렇게 생성된 3-bromo-1-[$^{18}F$]fluoropropane에 nor-${\beta}$-CIT를 넣고 DMF $5{\sim}6$방울이 함유된 아세토니트릴을 반응용매, $Et_3N$을 생성된 산의 중화제로 사용하여 140f에서 20분동안가열하였다. 생성된 [$^{18}F$]FP-CIT는 HPLC에 의해 정제되고 13% 에탄올이 함유된 생리식염수를 사용하여 제제화하였다. 정도관리는 HPLC 및 방사능 박층크로마토그라피에 의한 분석, pH, 발열성 검사로 이루어졌다. 결과· 3-Bromo-1-[$^{18}F$]Fluoropropane은 3-bromopropyl-1-triflate의 triflate기를 $^{18}F$으로 치환하여 $77{\sim}80%$의 높은 방사화학적 수율로 얻어졌으며 같은 반응용기에 nor-${\beta}$-CIT를 넣고 $140^{\circ}C$의 반응온도에서 아세토니트릴과 최소량의 DMF를 사용하여 알킬화반응을 실행하였다. 이때 DMF의 높은 극성과 비점 때문에 HPLC로 정제할 때 문제가 되었으므로 초기에 0.8% $Et_3N$을 포함한 물만을 사용하는 정제방법을 개발하였다. [$^{18}F$]FP-CIT의 동정은 비방사성 동일물질인 FP-CIT와 동시에 HPLC에 주입하여 확인되었다. [$^{18}F$]FP-CIT의 정도관리를 실행한 결과, 방사화학적 순도는 99% 이상, 유효비방사능은 $37GBq/{\mu}mol$ 이상으로 우수하였으며 총 감쇠보정된 방사화학적 수율도 $5{\sim}10%$로 높았다. 최종생성물의 pH는 약 7.0이었으며 발열물질은 없었다. 결론: 이 연구에서는 [$^{18}F$]fluorination 반응의 전구물질로서 3-bromopropyl-1-triflate를 사용하였고 HPLC 정제 조건을 새롭게 개발함으로써 유효비방사능이 높고 비교적 수율도 높은 [$^{18}F$]FP-CIT를 합성하는 새로운 방법을 확립하였다. 이 [$^{18}F$]FP-CIT는 뇌 도파민운반체의 체내 연구에 유용하게 사용될 것으로 사료된다.

  • $^{19}F$ NMR experiments were carried out to observe the change of the characteristics of the PVdF binder which is an auxiliary material of the lithium ion battery. PVdF has various crystalline or amorphous phases by thermal treatment. A mixture of cathode and auxiliary materials including PVdF was coated on aluminum foil as an electron collector and then subjected to thermal treatment at various temperatures. The overlapped $^{19}F$ NMR signals obtained from the various phases were separately convoluted into the respective phases, and it was found that there was a relative ratio change of these phases. In addition, the crystal and amorphous phase of PVdF was changed during the vacuum drying, which is the last step of the actual electrode manufacturing. It was observed that the relative amount of amorphous phase, which may affect the flexibility of the electrode or the wettability of the electrolyte, abruptly changes after a certain temperature.

  • The rapid quenching dynamics of the F-center excitation by CN- defects in CsCl crystals were investigated by monitoring the ground state bleach recovery kinetics of F-centers, using a picosecond streak camera absorption spectrometer. The F-centers in CN- doped quenched samples show two bleach recovery components. Optical aggregation converts the slow component to the fast component. The slow one is due to the normal relaxation of the F*-centers as found in CN_ free crystals. The fast one is due to the energy transfer of the F-center electronic excitation to the vibrational energy levels of CN_ molecualr defects. The energy transfer occurs only in the F-center-CN_ defect pairs, FH(CN_)-centers.
