V. alginolyticus 138-2, a marine halophilic bacterium, produced an extracellular amylase with a molecular weight of ca. 56,000. The analysis of the digestion products of soluble starch by thin layer chromatography(TLC) revealed that the extracellular amylase of V. alginolyticus 138-2 is a saccharifying-type alpha-amylase. The alpha-amylase activity of the culture supernatant of soluble starch was optimal at pH 6.0 and 45$^{\circ}C$. Ca2+ slightly increased the alpha-amylase activity, whereas Hg2+, An2+, Cu2+, Ni2+, Fe2+, and Mn2+inhibited the enzymatic activity. Alkylating thiol group agent, iodoacetic acid did not affect the alpha-amylase activity, but reduced thiol reagents such as dithiothreitol, cysteine, and beta-mercaptoethanol stimulated theenzymatic activity. On the other hand, even if V. alginolyticus 138-2 is a marine halophilic bacterium, its alpha-amylase activity was significantly inhibited by NaCl.

The scientific information on the microbial differentiation according to the changes in chemical properties of paddy soil in reclaimed tidal lands is not enough to understand the reclamation processes. The changes in microflora based on the chemical properties of paddy soils at the same sites of reclaimed tidal lands (21 samples from Nampo, Ewon, Sukmoon and Shihwa sites) were investigated in 2013 and 2015. In general, organic matter in paddy soils increased whereas pH decreased with the reclamation time. The electrical conductivities (EC) of soil samples were closely related to the exchangeable $Na^+$. With an increases in EC of paddy soils from 0.39 to $48.9dS\;m^{-1}$, the ratios (%) of halotolerant and halophilic bacteria to mesophilic bacteria proportionally increased from 0.2% to 102,000%. The population of halotolerant and halophilic bacteria in total microflora was also differentiated with the changes in EC of the same sites from reclaimed tidal soils within 2 years. The population of mesophilic bacteria decreased with an increase in EC above $5dS\;m^{-1}$. The microflora including halotolerant and halophilic bacteria could be a candidate as a biological parameter in evaluating the reclamation processes in addition to the chemical index of EC.

The scientific information between microbial activities and chemical properties of reclaimed tidal soil is not enough to apply for reclamation projects. This study was conducted to investigate the relation between chemical properties and microbial activities of reclaimed tidal lands located at western coastal area (25 samples from Nampo, Ewon, Sukmoon and Shihwa sites). Most of the reclaimed soils showed chemical characteristics as salinity soil except Nampo site. The major component influenced the salinity of reclaimed soil was identified as a sodium from the relationship between EC and exchangeable cation. With an increase in EC of soil, the population of mesophilic bacteria decreases whereas halotolerant and halophilic bacteria increases. The population of mesophilic bacteria increased with an increase in both organic matter and dehydrogenase activity. However, the population of halotolerant and halophilic bacteria decreased with an increase in organic matter. Based on the relation between chemical property and microbial activity of reclaimed tidal soil, electrical conductivity and organic matter as chemical properties of soil, population of mesophilic bacteria, halotolerant and halophilic bacteria and dehydrogenase activity as microbial activities could be the major parameters for reclamation process.

In salt-preserved foods of every kinds, it was examined the growth condition of halophilic bacteria that induced a change of colour, taste, nutritive substance, a production condition of enzyme and a character of crude enzyme. Used bacteria is H. halobium a kind of extremely halophilic bacteria, and the required of optimum culture needed a quite long time of crude enzyme production is 168 hours. Optimum pH is about 7-7.5, so the traditional food of such neutrality pH as soybean paste and soy sauce particularly come into trouble because the growth can flourish in neutrality or alkaliescence, and the crude enzyme also appeared that best activation between pH 6 and pH 8. The optimum temperature is about 37$^{\circ}C$, the optimum temperature of enzyme is about 40 $^{\circ}C$ and the temperature stability is settled for 15 minutes and it is completely inactivated at 10 minutes. In the influence of each metal ion, Fe++ and Mn++ a stimulated the growth of H.halobium and the activation of enzyme, Cu++ and Zn++ were identified that made the growth and the activation of enzyme inhibit.

Extremely halophilic bacteria isolated from salterns at Mado, Kyunggido, Korea, were identified and investigated on their salt requirements. The results have shown that six strains were identified to be belonged to the genus Halobacterium and three strains identified as the fenus Halococcus. Among them, the optimal NaCl concentration for growth of Halobacterium sp. EH10 was at 4.2M and no growth occurs below 2.0M NaCl. The strain, EH10, is nonmotile and showed acid production from glucose, fructose and maltose while H. salinarum is motile and does not produce acid from any carbohydrates. On the other hand, the strain EH10 does not utilize readily glucose while a number of sugars are readily utilized for growth with acid production by H. saccharovorum. Thus, the isolate, EH10, was classified into the genus Halobacterium and could be a novel species of the genus by its main morphological and physiological features including G+C content. The optimal temperature for growth of the isolate, EH10, was 50.deg.C. But this strain did not grow when NaCl was replaced with KCl.

$\small{D}$-Phenylglycine aminotransferase ($\small{D}$-PhgAT) from Pseudomonas stutzeri ST-201 is useful for enzymatic synthesis of enantiomerically pure $\small{D}$-phenylglycine. However, its low protein solubility prevents its application at high substrate concentration. With an aim to increase the protein solubility, the N-terminus of $\small{D}$-PhgAT was genetically fused with short peptides ($A_1$ ${\alpha}$-helix, $A_2$ ${\alpha}$-helix, and ALAL, which is a hybrid of $A_1$ and $A_2$) from a ferredoxin enzyme of a halophilic archaeon, Halobacterium salinarum. The fused enzymes $A_1$-$\small{D}$-PhgAT, $A_2$-$\small{D}$-PhgAT, and ALAL-$\small{D}$-PhgAT displayed a reduced pI and increased in solubility by 6.1-, 5.3-, and 8.1- fold in TEMP (pH 7.6) storage, respectively, and 5-, 4.5-, and 5.9-fold in CAPSO (pH 9.5) reaction buffers, respectively, compared with the wild-type enzyme (WT-$\small{D}$-PhgAT). In addition, all the fused $\small{D}$-PhgAT displayed higher enzymatic reaction rates than the WT-DPhgAT at all concentrations of L-glutamate monosodium salt used. The highest rate, $23.82{\pm}1.47$ mM/h, was that obtained from having ALAL-$\small{D}$-PhgAT reacted with 1,500 mM of the substrate. Moreover, the halophilic fusion significantly increased the tolerance of $\small{D}$-PhgAT in the presence of NaCl and KCl, being slightly in favor of KCl, where under the same condition at 3.5 M NaCl or KCl all halophilic-fused variants showed higher activity than WT-$\small{D}$-PhgAT.

우리나라 전남지역에서 생산되는 천일염의 생산공정별 미생물 분포 조사 및 배양 분리법을 이용하여 호염미생물을 분리하여 동정하는 것을 이번 연구의 목표로 삼았다. 천일염 시료는 생산지를 고려하여 육지 염전인 영광군 한 지역과 해안 염전 지역인 신안군 두 군데에서 생산공정별로 세분화하여 총 28개 분석시료를 수집하여 사용하였으며, 이들 시료를 십진 희석하여 4종류의 미생물 분리용 배지에 도말, 배양한 후 나타난 집락(colony)을 계수하였다. 그 결과 천일염 생산 공정 중 대장균 등의 식품 오염지표 미생물은 검출되지 않았지만, 저장수에서 증발지 단계로 진행되면서 $1.1{\times}10^3{\sim}1.8{\times}10^5$ CFU/g의 호염성 미생물들이 검출되었다. 그러나 이후 단계인 함수저장고, 결정지에서는 미생물 수가 점차적으로 감소되었으며, 소금저장소에 보관된 천일염 시료에서는 미생물이 전혀 검출되지 않았다. 이들 분리균들은 형태학적 특성에 따라 무작위로 62개 집락을 선정하여 분리하였다. 순수 분리된 미생물들은 PCR 기법을 통해 16S rRNA 유전자의 염기서열을 분석한 후, 기존에 보고된 미생물 유전자 database와 비교함으로써 12속의 천일염 유래 호염균들의 존재를 확인하였다. 이번 연구 결과 천일염 생산 단계에서 분리된 halophilic bacteria은 Halobacillus, Halomonas, Bacillus, Idiomarina, Marinobacter, Pseudoalteromonas, Vibrio, Salinivibrio, Virgibacillus, Alteromonas, Staphylococcus 및 un-known 등이다.
