The crystal structure or $\gamma$-hydroxy-$\betha$-aminobutyric acid was determined by MULTAN system with X-ray intensity data on a diffractometer and refined by the least-squares method to an R-value 0.034 for 711 reflections. The crystals were orthorhombic, space group $P2_{1}2_{1}2_{1}$, Z = 4, with a = 10.220, b = 8.257 and c = 6.556$\AA$. The molecule takes the zwitterionic form and skeletal conformation is trans-transform. The molecules are held together by intra-and intermolecular NH-O and OH--O hydrogen bonds.

Novel poly(aspartic acid) derivatives conjugated with $\gamma$-amino butyric acid, GABA, moieties, and their amphiphilic analogs were synthesized and characterized. The chemical structures of these polymers were confirmed by FT-IR and $^1H$ NMR spectroscopy. Their physicochemical properties in aqueous media were characterized by electrophonetic light scattering spectrophotometry (ELS), acid-base titration, and UV-spectroscopy. In addition, the in vitro cell activity of the GABA-conjugated polymer was examined. These results indicated that GABA-conjugated poly(aspartic acid) derivatives showed cell-growth activity and nanoparticle formation of a suitable size within aqueous media. These polymers have potential application in the cosmetic and pharmaceutical fields.

pH controlled batch reactor and bubble column reactors have been developed in this research. They were used to produce high concentration of GABA and to determine optimal pH for GABA production. Glutamate decarboxylase (GAD) was isolated from recombinant E. coli and used for GABA production from monosodium glutamate (MSG). pH control was inevitable because the pH increased with MSG consumption. GAD showed highest activity at acidic conditions at pH 5.5 but the optimal pH for GABA production was pH 6.0. When 1.5 mole of MSG was used as reactant, the 1.05 mole of GABA was produced after 10 hrs batch reaction. Using bubble column reactors, 80 % of MSG was converted to GABA for 6 hrs reaction and 1.2 mole of GABA was produced.

Germinated barley, instead of glutinous rice, was used to make health-enhancing fermented red pepper paste. The proximate components of commercial glutinous rice red pepper paste (CGRPP) and germinated barley red pepper paste (GBRPP) were analyzed during fermentation. The sensory characteristics and ${\gamma}$-amino butyric acid (GABA) contents of CGRPP and GBRPP were evaluated. The contents of ${\beta}$-glucan and GABA showed the highest value after 48 hrs of germination. During the fermentation, the contents of GABA in GBRPP increased up to 28 days and then decreased. During sensory evaluation, the consumer liked the GBRPP more than CGRPP. The GABA contents were increased during fermentation and GABA contents of GBRPP were twice as much as that of CGRPP. These results suggest that the GBRPP can have consumer acceptance for its health benefits and taste and can therefore become commercialized.

The retinae and the lens bodies of the frogs were hydrolyzed with 20% hydrochloric acid, and their amino acids were separated by paper chromatography. As a result of it the following were confirmed : (1) The retinae and the lens bodies were the same incomposition, and aspartic acid, glutamic acid, serine ,tyrosine, glycine, lysine arginine, threonine, alanine, histidine, proline, methionine, valine , phenylalanine, leucine, and two unknown substances were separated. (2) The free amino acids in the retinae were extracted with 80% ethyl alcohol and then separated by paper chromatography. Though their separation was not so definite , serine, gultaminc acid, and glycine were always separated regardless of the amount of the sample. When the amount of the smaple was enough , $\beta$-alanine , ${\gamma}$-amino butyric acid and methionine +valine were also separated.

굴 부착기 유생의 부착 유인 효과를 조사하기 위하여 6종류(serotonin, ${\gamma}$-amino butyric acid, L-3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine, norepinephrine, epinephrine, methyl bromide)의 신경전달물질을 채묘기질에 직접 처리하여 굴 부착기 유생의 부착 유인 효과를 조사하였다. 조사결과 평균 채묘율는 각각 $29.1{\pm}2.2%$, $29.1{\pm}2.2%$, $19.2{\pm}2.1%$, $11.0{\pm}1.2%$, $15.2{\pm}0.9%$ 및 $42.7{\pm}2.7%$로 MB 처리구에서 가장 높은 결과를 보였고, norepinephrine 처리구에서 유의적으로 가장 낮은 결과를 보였다 (P < 0.05). 채묘기질 $cm^2$당 부착밀도와 부착빈도는 ${\gamma}$-amino butyric acid와 methyl bromide 처리구에서 각각 $1.97{\pm}1.42$ 및 $2.37{\pm}1.86$ 마리/$cm^2$로 가장 높은 부착밀도를 보였다 (P < 0.05). 본 실험결과 굴 인공종묘배양장 등에서 부착기 유생의 부착요율을 높이는데, ${\gamma}$-amino butyric acid와 methyl bromide를 이용하면 효과적일 것으로 보인다.

Amino-acid neurotransmitter system dysfunction plays a major role in the pathophysiology of depression. Several studies have demonstrated the potential of amino acids as a source of neuro-specific biomarkers could be used in future diagnosis of depression. Only partial amino acids such as glycine and asparagine were determined from certain parts of rats' brain included hippocampi and cerebral cortex in previous studies. However, according to systematic biology, amino acids in different area of brain are interacted and interrelated. Hence, the determination of 34 amino acids through entire rats' brain was conducted in this study in order to demonstrate more possibilities for biomarkers of depression by discovering other potential amino acids in more areas of rats' brain. As a result, 4 amino acids (L-aspartic acid, L-glutamine, taurine and ${\gamma}$-amino-n-butyric acid) among 34 were typically identified as potentially primary biomarkers of depression by data statistics. Meanwhile, an antidepressant called Fluoxetine was employed to verify other potential amino acids which were not identified by data statistics. Eventually, we found L-${\alpha}$-amino-adipic acid could also become a new potentially secondary biomarker of depression after drug validation. In conclusion, we suggested that L-aspartic acid, L-glutamine, taurine, ${\gamma}$-amino-n-butyric acid and L-${\alpha}$-amino-adipic acid might become potential biomarkers for future diagnosis of depression and development of antidepressant.

혈압저하작용, 이뇨기능 등의 다양한 생리활성을 나타내는 $\gamma$-amino butyric acid(GABA)를 고농도로 생산하는 유산균인 Lactobacillus sakei B2-16을 이용하여 GABA의 산업적 생산 배지를 연구하였다. L. sakei B2-16의 최적 상용 배지는 Lactobacilli MRS 배지였으며, Lactobacilli MRS 배지에 1% mono sodium glutamate(MSG)를 첨가하고, L. sakei B2-16을 배양했을때 MSG의 99.3% 는 GABA로 전환되었다. MRS 배지를 기본으로 최적 배지조성을 검토한 결과, 탄소원으로 4% sucrose와 질소원으로 1% yeast extract를 첨가하였을 때 균체 증식과 GABA 생산량이 가장 우수하였다. 산업적 배지를 확립하기 위하여 미배아를 온수 추출하여 얻은 추출액 배지에 L. sakei B2-16을 배양한 결과, 7%의 MSG를 100% GABA로 전환시켰으며, 미배아 추출액을 이용한 배지는 산업적 생산용 배지로의 응용이 기대된다.
