  • The luminescence behaviors of Yttrium niobate and Bi doped Yttrium niobate were investigated under UV and low voltage electron excitations and interpreted with the first-principle calculations. In the UV excitation and emission spectra of $YNbO_4$ and $YNbO_4:Bi$, we were able to separate host contribution and Bi contribution and found that the shift in emission peak to longer wavelength is mainly due to Bi contribution. Using density functional theory, the cluster calculations were carried out for both $YNbO_4$ and $YNbO_4:Bi$. From the calculated density of states, we were also able to explain the charge transfer gap in the host and the effect of Bi in the excitation and emission spectra theoretically.

  • Synthesis and properties of novel excited-state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT) materials, recently developed in our group, are described. Highly efficient ESIPT reaction, achieved in polyquinolines, polybenzoxazoles, and oxadiazole and imidazole derivatives possessing an intramolecular tautomerizable hydrogen bond, has been investigated theoretically and experimentally. It is demonstrated that unique properties arising from the ESIPT process (large Stokes' shift, no self-absorption, and easy population inversion, etc.) make it possible to produce advanced polymer devices for lasing, optical storage, and electroluminescence.

  • In phtosynthetic light harvesting complexes, the electronic transition energies of chlorophylls are influenced by the Coulombic interaction with nearby molecules. Variation of the interactions caused by structural inhomogeneity in biological environment results in a distribution of disordered electronic transition energies of chlorophylls. In order to provide a practical guide to predict qualitative tendency of such distribution, we model four porphyrin derivatives including chlorophyll a molecule interacting with an external positive charge and calculate their transition energies using the time dependent density functional method. It is found that ${\pi}-{\pi}^*$ transition energies of the molecules are generally blue-shifted by the charge because this stabilizes occupied molecular orbitals to a greater extent than unoccupied ones. Furthermore, new transitions in the visible region emerge as a result of the red-shift in energy of an unoccupied Mg orbital and it is suggested that light-induced electron transfer may occur from the tetrapyrrole ring to the central magnesium when the molecules are interacting with a positive charge.

  • The Saccharomyces cerevisiae MGMT gene encodes a O6-methylguanine DNA methyltransferase that protects cells from mutation or death by DNA alkylating agents. Using an in vitro transcription system, we analyzed its promoter region to find regulatory elements for transcription initiation. DNase I footprinting and a transcription assay showed that a functional TATA box, 5'-TGATATAGCA-3', is located in the region spanning from -25 to -34. We also found one upstream repressing sequence (URS), -333 to -213, by promoter deletion and competition analysis. Gel mobility shift assays and Southwestern blot analysis using URS region indicate specific complex formations. These results indicate that several cis-acting and trans-acting elements might be involved in the transcriptional regulation of the S. cerevisiae MGMT gene.

  • The purpose of study to know hand function in order to prevent disability or handicap. The ability to perform precise refined movements of hand is an important human function. Improvement in object manipulation is common goal of therapist. The ability to manipulate an object in the hand is need for many functional tasks, including writing, handling coins, small objects and ADL skills. Therapists have commonly used hand grip and pinch strengths as baseline measures to evaluate hand function. The patterns of grasps are precision grasp, power grasp, hook grasp, spherical grasp, sylindrical grasp, disc grasp, pinch, three point pinch and tip pinch. And the motion of in-manipulation are finger to palm translation, palm to finger, shift, simple rotation and complex rotation. The hand function are include to evaluate of ROM, sensation, muscle strength of hand. It used to evaluate of decision of effect and suppose of disability and acceptance of vocation. Good evaluation is need to pretreatment and baseline of treatment and help to evaluate of effect on treatment.

  • Conditional lethal mutation nup49-1 of a nuclear pore complex component gene was constructed in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. This mutation deleted one third of the essential NUP49 gene at the carboxy-terminal, but retained 13 repeats of the highly conserved GLFG domain. The nup49-1 mutant strain was viable with a slow-growth phenotype, indicating that the C-terminal is dispensable at normal growth temperature. This strain exhibited both temperature-sensitivity at 37.deg.C and cold-sensitivity at 16.deg.C. Temperature shift experiments revealed that the arrest phenotype at 37.deg.C was random in the cell division cycle. The nup49-1 mutation was tested to be recessive and is expected to be useful for the functional analysis of nuclear pore complex proteins as well as for studies of nuclear transport systems.

  • Several ABCH type chiral calix[4]arenes were prepared from monoalkyl calix[4]arenes by treating with various acyl halide, followed by reacting with benzoyl chloride in pyridine. These asymmetrically substituted ABCH type calix[4]arenes are obtained as racemates mixture which are confirmed by the chiral shift reagent in 1H NMR spectra. The molecular and crystal structure of 5-nitro-26-allyloxy-25-benzoyloxy-28-isobutyryloxy-27-hydroxycalix[4]arene 8a has been determined by the X-ray diffraction method. Two independent enantiomeric molecules are crystallized in a 1: 1 racemate mixture. They are in the partial cone conformation in which the benzoyloxy phenyl group is down. There is a bifurcated intramolecular hydrogen bonding involving three functional groups in each molecule.

  • Light is a major environmental signal for entrainment of the circadian clock, but little is known about the phototransduction pathway triggered by light-activation of photoreceptive molecule(s) responsible for the phase shift of the clock in vertebrates. The chicken pineal gland and retina contain the autonomous circadian oscillators together with the photic entrainment pathway, and hence they provide useful experimental model for the clock system. We previously demonstrated the expression and light-dependent activation of rod-type transducin $\alpha$-subunit (Gtl$\alpha$) in the chicken pineal gland. It is unlikely, however, that the pineal Gt$_1$$\alpha$ plays a major role in the photic entrainment, because the light-induced phase shift is unaffected by bloking the signaling function of Gt$_1$$\alpha$. Here, we show the expression of G 11 $\alpha$, an $\alpha$-subunit of another heterotrimeric G-protein, in the chicken pineal gland and retina by cDNA cloning, Northern blot and Western blot analyses. GIl$\alpha$-immunoreactivity was colocalized with pinopsin in the chicken pineal cells and it was found predominantly at the outer segments of photoreceptor cells in the retinal sections, suggesting functional coupling of G11 $\alpha$ with opsins in the both the tissues. By coimmunoprecipitation experiments using the retina, we showed the light- and GTP-dependent interaction between rhodopsin and G11 $\alpha$. Upon ectopic expression of a Gq/ 11-coupled receptor in cultured pineal cells, pharmacological (non-photic) activation of endogenous G11 induced phase-dependent phase shifts of the melatonin rhythm in a manner very similar to the effect of light. These results suggested opsin-G11 pathway contributing to the photic entrainment of the circadian clock.

  • 본 논문에서는 디지털 논리회로의 스캔(scan) 방식에 기초한 효율적인 테스터블(testable) 스캔 셀(cell)을 제안하며 타이밍과 관련된 지연고장(delay fault)을 검출하기 위한 Mux-based 스캔 셀 설계와 테스트방식을 제안한다. 이로 인해 설계와 검증 시 소요되는 테스트 시간과 비용을 단축하고, LOC(Launch-off-Capture)와 LOS(Launch-off-Shift)방식의 지연고장 테스트 방안도 제안한다. 제안된 테스트방식은 스캔 입력에서 거리가 먼 마지막 스캔 셀까지의 전역 제어신호(global control signal)가 늦게 도달하는 문제점을 클럭(clock) 신호를 이용하여 동기화시킴으로써 보다 빠르게 구동시켜 고속의 테스트가 가능하다. 또한, 테스트 벡터 입력 시 대상회로의 논리 값 인가를 차단하여 테스트 벡터 입력동안의 스캔 전력소모를 효과적으로 줄이도록 한다. 스캔 셀 설계의 논리 동작과 타이밍 시뮬레이션을 통해 제안된 방식의 동작을 증명 한다.
