Antisera against the myotropic neuropeptide leucokinin I, originally isolated from head extracts of the cockroach Leucophaea maderae, have been used to investigate the distribution of the leucokinin I-immunoreactive (LK I-IR) neurons in the brain of the common cutworm, Spodoptera Iitura, during postembryonic development. The LK I-IR neurons are found at the larval stages (excluding first instar larval stage), pupal stages, and adult stage, of which the brains have been examined in this experiment. The number of the LK I-IR neurons in the brain increases from the second instar larva to the fifth instar larva which has about 32, the largest number in all postembryonic stages. Thereafter, the LK I-IR neurons begin to decrease in number. During the pupal stages, smaller number of LK I-IR neurons persist in the brains; 6 or 4. At adult stage the brain contains 8 LK I-IR neurons. The LK I-IR cell bodies are distributed in each dorsal cortex of both cerebral hemispheres in the second instar larva and through all the neuromeres of the brain during later larval stages, despite of being a large number of the LK I-IR cell bodies in dorsolateral neuromeres. At pupal stages, most of the LK I-IR cell bodies are found in the pars intercerebralis. Extremely small number of the LK I-IR cell bodies are localized in the pars lateral is. Adult brain contains the LK I-IR cell bodies in the pars intercerebralis and the middle cortex of the posterior brain. The LK I-IR nerve processes can be easily found in the neuropils of almost all the neuromeres in the brains of third, fourth, fifth and sixth instar larvae. Most of the LK I-IR nerve fibers in those brains are originated from the LK I-IR cell bodies located in the brains. The LK I-IR cell bodies which have very weak reactivities to the antisera do not show projection of the LK I-IR nerve processes in the brains.

B Brevibacterium divaricatum FERM 5948 균주로부터 Bdi I RIM 체계에 속하는 BdiI methylase 유천자를 클로닝하여 발현을 조사하였다. Bdi I methylase 유전자의 클로닝을 위해 pBR 322의 EcoRI, BamHl, Sal I 3 군데의 클로닝 site를 이 용했고 1 차 형질전환후 나온 플라스미드를 BdiI으로 자른 뒤 ligation 시키지 않고 형질전환시키는 방법을 이용하였다. 유전 자을 가지는 행질전환체의 선별은 Bdi I methylase에 의해 수정된 채조합 플라스미드는 BdiI 제한효소에 방호된다는 것에 기 초하여 선별하였는데 5.6kb의 EcoRI insert DNA를 가지는 pBDIM 116이 Bdil methylase 유전자플 가지는 것으로 판명 되었다. pBDIM 11&을 가지는 숙주셰포에서 추출한 추출용액에는 S-adenosylmethionine이 있으면 BdiI의 인지부위인 A ATCGAT에만 특정한 methylase 활성이 측정되였다. 11개의 제한효소를 이용하이 제한효소지도를 작성하였고, BdiI r restriction -modification 체계에 관해서 도 논의하였다.

E. coli에서 글루타치온 생산 증가를 위해서 E. coli에서 분리한 gehI과 gshII유전자를 함유하고 있는 여러 재조합 플라스미드를 구성하여 도입하였다.pBR325 벡터에 gehI 유전자를 각각 1-3개를 포함한 재조합 플라스미드 및 gehI과 gehII 유전자를 동시에 갖는 재조합 플라스미드를 구성하였다. 계속적으로 반복된 gehI 유전자가 증폭된 E. colidml $\gamma $-gluramylcysteine synthetase의 효소활성은 삽입된 gehI 유전자의 부에 따라 증가하였다. 구성된 재조합 플라스미드를 함유한 E.coli의 글루타치온 생산능을 accetate kinase반응을 ATP재생계로 사용하여 조사한 결과 반복된 gehI 유전자를 함유한 E.coli의 글루타치온 생산능력은 삽입된 gehI 유전자의 수에 비례한여 증가하였으며, gehI 유전자의 추가적인 도입에 의해 글루타치온 생산능력은 2배 증가하였다. E.coli에서 글루타치온의 효소적 생산은 주로 \gamma $-gluramylcysteine synthetase의 효소활성에 의해 영향을 받았다. 가장 높은 글루타치온 생산능은 pGH501 (pUC8-gsh.I.II.III) 플라스미드를 갖는 균주에서 관찰되었다.

Hepatic ischemia and reperfusion (l/R) predisposes the liver to secondary stresses such as endotoxemia, possibly via dysregulation of the hepatic microcirculation secondary to an imbalanced regulation of the vascular stress genes. In this study, the effect of hepatic I/R on the hepatic vasoregulatory gene expression in response to endotoxin was determined. Rats were subjected to 90 min of hepatic ischemia and 6 h of reperfusion. Lipopolysaccharide (LPS, 1 mg/kg) was injected intraperitoneally after reperfusion. Plasma and liver samples were obtained 6 h after reperfusion for serum aminotransferase assays and RT-PCR analysis of the mRNA for the genes of interest： endothelin-1 (ET-1), its receptors $ET_A$ and $ET_B$, endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS), inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS), heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1), cyciooxygenase-2 (COX-2), and tumor necrosis factor-a (TNF-${\alpha}$). The activities of serum aminotransferases were significantly increased in the I/R group. This increase was markedly potentiated by LPS treatment. The ET-1 mRNA was increased by LPS alone, and this increase was significantly greater in both the I/R alone and I/R ＋ LPS groups compared to the sham. There were no significant differences in ETA receptor mRNA levels among any of the experimental groups. $ET_B$ mRNA was increased by both LPS alone and I/R alone, with no significant difference between the I/R alone and I/R ＋ LPS groups. The eN OS and HO-1 transcripts were increased by I/R alone and further increased by I/R ＋ LPS. The iNOS mRNA levels were increased by I/R alone, but increased significantly more by both LPS alone and I/R ＋ LPS compared to I/R alone. The TNF-${\alpha}$ mRNA levels showed no change with I/R alone, but were increased by both LPS alone and I/R ＋ LPS. The COX-2 expression was increased significantly by I/R alone and significantly more by I/R ＋ LPS. Taken collectively, significantly greater induction of the vasodilator genes over the constriction forces was observed with I/R ＋ LPS. These results may partly explain the increased susceptibility of ischemic livers to injury as a result of endotoxemia.

모바일 기기가 널리 보급되면서 모바일 기기에서 멀티미디어 데이터나 데이터베이스 같은 대용량 데이터 사용에 대한 요구가 커지고 있다. 따라서 모바일 기기의 저장 공간의 한계를 극복하기 위한 노력의 하나로 iSCSI 를 이용해 모바일 기기에 원격 스토리지 서비스를 제공하는 연구가 진행되었다. 그러나 모바일 기기에 iSCSI 를 적용했을 때, 지연 시간에 민강한 iSCSI의 구조적인 특성 때문에 iSCSI 클라이언트가 서버에서 멀리 떨어진 위치로 이동하게 되면 iSCSI I/O 성능이 급격히 떨어지는 문제가 발생한다. 본 논문에서는 모바일 기기가 스토리지 서버로부터 거리가 멀어졌을 때 전송 지연시간이 증가함에 따라 iSCSI 성능이 급격하게 떨어지는 단점을 개선하기 위해 중개서버(Intermediate Target)를 이용해 iSCSI Target을 지역화하여 성능을 높이는 방안을 제안한다.

Let R be a commutative Noetherian ring, I an ideal of R and T be a non-zero I-cofinite R-module with dim(T) ${\leq}$ 1. In this paper, for any finitely generated R-module N with support in V(I), we show that the R-modules $Ext^i_R$(T,N) are finitely generated for all integers $i{\geq}0$. This immediately implies that if I has dimension one (i.e., dim R/I = 1), then $Ext^i_R$($H^j_I$(M), N) is finitely generated for all integers $i$, $j{\geq}0$, and all finitely generated R-modules M and N, with Supp(N) ${\subseteq}$ V(I).

In this study I investigate how native Korean listeners perceive English vowels /i/, /I/, and /$\epsilon$/. I extend Flege et al's (1997) study with synthesized /i/-/I/ and /I/-/$\epsilon$/ continua, and apply the results to Flege's (1995) Speech Learning Model (SLM). The statistical results show that native speakers of English rely more on spectral steps than on vowel duration when they identify the /i/-/I/ continuum, whereas native speakers of Korean rely more on vowel duration than on spectral steps when they identify the same continuum. In the case of the /I/-/$\epsilon$/ continuum, both groups rely on spectral steps when they identify the /$\epsilon$/, which supports the SLM; Koreans identified the /$\epsilon$/ categorically since Korean has the equivalent vowel. However, there was not statistical difference between Korean subjects with more English experience (KE) and those with less English experience in the identification of both continua. This contradicts the SLM, which posits that experienced L2 learners are better than inexperienced L2 learners in perception of L2 sounds. The exact nature of this should be further investigated in the SLM.

We will show that let X and Y be M -finite Banach spaces with canonical M-decompositions $X{\cong}{{\prod}^{{\gamma}_{\infty}}_{i=1}}{X^{n_i}}_{i}\;and\;Y{\cong}{{\prod}^{{\bar{\gamma}}_{\infty}}_{j=1}}{\tilde{Y}^{m_j}}_{j}$, respectively and M and N nonzero locally compact Hausdorff spaces. Then I : $C_{0}$(M,X) ${\longrightarrow}\;C_{0}$(N,Y) is an isometrical isomorphism if and only if r = $\bar{r}$ and there are permutation and homeomorphisms and continuous maps such that I = ${I^{-1}}_{N.Y}\;{\circ}I_{w}^{-1}{\circ}({{\prod}^{\gamma}}_{i=1}I_{t_i,u_i}){\circ}I_{M,X}$.

Deoxyribonuclease I (DNase I) is a divalent cation dependent endonuclease and thought to be a significant barrier to effective gene delivery. The only known DNase I-specific inhibitor is monomeric actin which acts by forming a 1:1 complex with DNase I. Its use, however, is restricted because of tendency to polymerize under certain conditions. We screened two random phage peptide libraries of complexity $10^8$ and $10^9$ for DNase I binders as candidates for DNase I inhibitors. A number of DNase I-binding peptide sequences were identified. When these peptides were expressed as fusion proteins with Escherichia coli maltose binding protein, they inhibited the actin-DNase I interaction ($IC_{50}=0.1-0.7{\mu}M$) and DNA degradation by DNase I ($IC_{50}=0.8-8{\mu}M$). Plasmid protection activity in the presence of DNase I was also observed with the fusion proteins. These peptides have the potential to be a useful adjuvant for gene therapy using naked DNA.

Let R/I be an Artinian algebra of codimension 3 with Hilbert function H such that $h_{d-1}>h_d=h_{d+1}$. Ahn and Shin showed that A cannot be level if ${\beta}_{1,d+2}(Gin(I))={\beta}_{2,d+2}(Gin(I))$ where Gin(I) is a generic initial ideal of I. We prove that some certain graded Artinian algebra R/I cannot be level if either ${\beta}_{1,d}(I^{lex})={\beta}_{2,d}(I^{lex})+1\;or\;{\beta}_{1,d+1}(I^{lex})={\beta}_{2,d+1}(I^{lex})\;where\;I^{lex}$ is a lex-segment ideal associated to I.
