A cDNA coding alkaline phosphatase (AP) homologue was isolated from a cDNA library of Schizosaccharomyces pombe by colony hybridization. The nucleotide sequence of the cloned cDNA appeared to lack the N-terminal coding region. The genomic DNA encoding alkaline phosphatase homologue was isolated from S. pombe chromosomal DNA using PCR. The amplified DNA fragment was ligated into plasmid pRS315 to generate the recombinant plasmid pSW20. The DNA insert was subcloned as two smaller fragments for nucleotide sequencing. The sequence contains 2,789 by and encodes a protein of 532 amino acids with a molecular mass of 58,666 daltons. The S. pombe cells containing plasmid pSW20 showed much higher AP activity compared with the yeast cells with vector only This indicates that the cloned AP gene apparently encodes AP The predicted amino acid sequence of the S. pombe AP shares homology with those of other known APs.

Porphyromonas gingivalis, a Gram negative, anaerobic, asaccharolytic rod, is one of the most frequently implicated pathogens in human periodontal disease and has a requirement for hemin for growth. A 30 kDa (heated 24 kDa) hemin-binding protein whose expression is both hemin and iron regulated has recently been purified and characterized in this oral pathogen. This study has identified a hemin-binding P. gingivalis protein by expression of a P. gingivalis genomic library in Escherichia coli, a bacterium which does not require or transport exogenous hemin. A library of genomic DNA fragments from P. gingivalis was constructed in plasmid pUC18, transformed into Escherichia coli strain $DH5{\alpha}$ , and screened for recombinant clones with hemin-binding activity by plating onto hemin-containing agar. Of approximately 10,000 recombinant E. coli colonies screened on LB-amp-hemin agar, 10 exhibited a clearly pigmented phenotype. Each clone contained various insert DNA. The Hind III fragment transferred to the T7 RNA polymerase/promoter expression vector system produced a sligltly smaller (21 kDa) protein, a precursor form, immunoreactive to the antibody against the 24 kDa protein, suggesting that the cloned DNA fragment probably carried an entire gene for the 24 kDa hemin-binding protein.

TMC (Tautomycetin) is a liner polyketide immunosuppressive antifungal compound produced by Streptomyces spp. Inhibition of T cell proliferation with TMC was observed highly efficient at 100-fold lower than those needed to achieve maximal inhibition with cyclosporin A. To elucidate the biosynthetic pathway of TMC, a genomic DNA library was constructed using a E. coil-Streptomyces shuttle cosmid vector, pOJ446. The DNA libraries were screened by colony blot hybridization using several polyketide ${\beta}-ketosynthase$ (KS) probes amplified from TMC-producing Streptomyces genomic DNA using polymerase chain reaction (PCR), of which the degenerate primers were designed based on the highly conserved sequences present in KS domains of various type I polyketide synthase genes in Streptomyces species. This library construction and screening approach led to the isolation of several positive cosmid clones representing type I polyketide biosynthetic gene clusters. In addition, a Streptomyces regulatory gene called afsR2 (a global regulatory gene stimulating antibiotic production in both S. coelicolor and S. lividans) was successfully integrated into the TMC-producing Streptomyces chromosome via E. coil-Streptomyces heterologous conjugation mehtod. The more detailed results of production improvement and genetic characterization of TMC-producing Streptomyces spp. will be discussed.

ADP-glucose pyrophosphorylase (AGPase) catalyzes the key regulatory step in starch biosynthesis. Two cDNA clones encoding AGPase subunits were isolated from the leaf cDNA library of Chinese cabbage (Brassica campestris L. spp. pekinensis). One was designated as BCAGPS for the small subunit and the other as BCAGPL for the large subunit. Both cDNAs have uninterrupted open reading frames deriving 57 kDa and 63 kDa polypeptides for BCAGPS and BCAGPL, respectively, which showed significant similarity to those of other dicot plants. Also, However, the deduced amino acid sequence of BCAGPL has a unique feature. That is, it contains two regions (Rl and R2) lacking in all other plant enzymes. This is the first report of BCAGPL containing Rl and R2 among plant large subunits as well as small subunits. From the genomic Southern analysis and BAC library screening, we inferred the genomic status of BCAGPS and BCAGPL gene.

The objective of this study is to develop the gene based sequence tagged site (STS) markers in wheat. The euchromatin enriched genomic library was constructed and the STS primer sets were designed using gene based DNA sequence. The euchromatin enriched genomic (EEG) DNA library in wheat was constructed using the $Mcr$A and $Mcr$BC system in $DH5{\alpha}$ cell. The 2,166 EEG colonies have been constructed by methylated DNA exclusion. Among the colonies, 606 colonies with the size between 400 and 1200 bp of PCR products were selected for sequencing. In order to develop the gene based STS primers, blast analysis comparing between wheat genetic information and rice genome sequence was employed. The 227 STS primers mainly matched on $Triticum$ $aestivum$ (hexaploid), $Triticum$ $turgidum$ (tetraploid), $Aegilops$ (diploid), and other plants. The polymorphisms were detected in PCR products after digestion with restriction enzymes. The eight STS markers that showed 32 polymorphisms in twelve wheat genotypes were developed using 227 STS primers. The STS primers analysis will be useful for generation of informative molecular markers in wheat. Development of gene based STS marker is to identify the genetic function through cloning of target gene and find the new allele of target trait.

A cDNA of coagulation Factor IX gene has been screened from the $\lambda$gt11 human fetal liver cDNA library, and used to construct a 2.8-kb full length cDNA after recombining with the N-terminal fragment from pTZ-FIX. Human genomic DNA was isolated, digested with the restriction endonucleases, TaqI, EcoRI, and HindIII, and Southern hybridization was performed using the full length factor IX cDNA as a probe. The hybridized bands generated by the restriction endonucleases were the followings: TaqI, 0.3, 1.0, 1.6, 1.8, 2.7, 3.7, and 5.3 kb bands; EcoRI, 1.8, 4.8, 4.9, 5.5, 6.8, and 12.6 kb bands; HindIII, 4.1, 4.4, 5.2, 5.8, 7.6, and 12.5 kb bands. When the Southern bands were physically mapped along the genome, about 50-kb continuous region harboring almost all of the genomic region of Factor Ⅸ gene was covered. These results suggest a possibility of using an exonal cDNA probe to diagnose abnormalities including large deletions, insertions, and rearrangements along the genome, if there is any.

Simple sequence repeats (SSR)는 진핵생물체에 널리 산재되어 있으며, 큰 다형현상을 나타내고, polymerase chain reaction (PCR)으로 쉽게 분석된다. 이 연구의 목적은 서로 다른 Chlamydomonas reinhardtii계통간의 다형현상과 Chlamydomonas의 SSR 좌위에서의 유전양상을 결정하는데 있었다. C. reinhardtii의 genomic DNA library를 만들어 $^{32}$P로 라벨링한 (AC)$_{11}$ probe를 이용하여 (CA/GT)n 반복서열을 가지는 clone을 선택하기위해 screen하였다. 선택된 clone을 sequencing하여 (CA/GT)n sequence에 인접한 PCR primer set를 제조하였다. PCR은 여러 C. reinhardtii 계통의 SSR 좌위를 증폭하기 위하여 사용하였다. 그 좌위는 및몇 C. reinhardtii 계통에서 다형현상을 보였다. 그러나 그 좌위에서 C. reinhardtii의 6계통중 4계통만 DNA가 PCR 증폭을 하였고 2계통은 증폭을 하지 않았다. C. reinhardtii와 C. smithii의 교배로 생긴 4배체에서 2:2의 분리비를 보여주었는데, 이는 단순한 멘델의 유전양상을 나타낸다. 이러한 결과로 미루어 SSR 다형현상은 Chlamydomonas의 개체 식별, 개체군 연구, 연쇄 분석, 그리고 유전자 지도 작성을 하는데 유용할 것이다.다.

Genotyping-by-sequencing (GBS) is an outstanding technology for genotyping and single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) discovery compared to next generation sequencing (NGS) because it can save time when analyzing large-scale samples and carries a low cost per sample. Recently, studies using GBS have been conducted on major crops and, to a greater extent, on fruit crops. However, many researchers have some problems due to low GBS efficiency resulting from low quality GBS libraries. To overcome this limitation, we developed an efficient GBS library construction method that regulates important conditions such as restriction enzymes (RE) digestion and a PCR procedure for grapevine. For RE digestion, DNA samples are digested with ApeKI (3.6U) at $75^{\circ}C$ for 5 hours and adapters are ligated to the ends of gDNA products. To produce suitable PCR fragments for sequencing, we modified the PCR amplification conditions; temperature cycling consisted of $72^{\circ}C$ (5 min), $98^{\circ}C$ (30 s), followed by 16 cycles of $98^{\circ}C$ (30 s), $65^{\circ}C$ (30 s), $72^{\circ}C$ (20 s) with a final extension step. As a result, we had obtained optimal library construct sizes (200 to 400 bp) for GBS analysis. Furthermore, it not only increased the mapping efficiency by approximately 10.17% compared to the previous method, but also produced mapped reads which were distributed equally on the19 chromosomes in the grape genome. Therefore, we suggest that this system can be used for various fruit crops and is expected to increase the efficiency of various genomic analysis performed.

Alcaligenes sp. SH-69 can synthesize poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyvalerate) from a single carbon source such as glucose. To clone the phaC gene from Alcaligenes sp. SH-69, a polymerase chain reaction was performed using the oligomers synthesized based on the conserved regions of the phaC genes from other bacteria. A PCR product (550 bp) was partially sequenced and the deduced amino acid sequence was found to be homologous to that of the phaC gene from Alcaligenes eutrophus. Using the PCR fragment Southern blotting of Alcaligenes sp. SH-69 genomic DNA digested with several restriction enzymes was carried out. To prepare a partial genomic library, about 5-Kb genomic DNA fragments digested with EcoRI, which showed a positive signal in the Southern blotting, were eluted from an agarose gel, ligated with pUC19 cleaved with EcoRI, and transformed into Escherichia coli. The partial library was screened using the PCR fragment as a probe and a plasmid, named pPHA11, showing a strong hybridization signal was selected. Restriction mapping of the insert DNA in pPHA11 was performed. Cotransformation into E. coli of the plasmid pPHA11 and the plasmid pPHA21 which has phaA and phaB from A. eutrophus resulted in turbid E. coli colonies which are indicative of PHA accumulation. This result tells us that the Alcaligenes sp. SH-69 phaC gene in the pPHA11 is functionally active in E. coli and can synthesize PHA in the presence of the A. eutrophus phaA and phaB genes.
