The cation-dependent galactose-specific flocculation activity of the Schizosaccharomyces pombe null mutant of $lkh1^+$, the gene encoding LAMMER kinase homolog, has previously been reported by our group. Here, we show that disruption of $prk1^+$, another flocculation associated regulatory kinase encoding gene, also resulted in cation-dependent galactosespecific flocculation. Deletion of prk1 increased the flocculation phenotype of the $lkh1^+$ null mutant and its overexpression reversed the flocculation of cells caused by lkh1 deletion. Transcript levels of $prk1^+$ were also decreased by $lkh1^+$ deletion. Cumulatively, these results indicate that Lkh1 is one of the negative regulators acting upstream of Prk1, regulating non-sexual flocculation in fission yeast.

To investigate the possible roles of LAMMER kinase homologue, Lkh1, in Schizosaccharomyces pombe, whole proteins were extracted from wild type and lkh1-deletion mutant cells and subjected to polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Differentially expressed proteins were identified by tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) and were compared with a protein database. In whole-cell extracts, 10 proteins were up-regulated and 9 proteins were down-regulated in the mutant. In extracellular preparations, 6 proteins were up-regulated in the lkh1+ null mutant and 4 proteins successfully identified: glycolipid anchored surface precursor, $\beta$-glucosidase (Psu1), cell surface protein, glucan 1,3-$\beta$-glucosidase (Bgl2), and exo-1,3 $\beta$-glucanase (Exg1). These results suggest that Lkh1 is involved in regulating cell wall assembly.

Lkh1, a LAMMER kinase homolog in the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe, acts as a negative regulator of filamentous growth and flocculation. It is also involved in the response to oxidative stress. The lkh1-deletion mutant displays slower cell growth, shorter cell size, and abnormal DNA content compared to the wild type. These phenotypes suggest that Lkh1 controls cell size and cell cycle progression. When we performed microarray analysis using the lkh1-deletion mutant, we found that only four of the up-regulated genes in the lkh1-deletion were associated with the cell cycle. Interestingly, all of these genes are regulated by the Mlu1 cell cycle box binding factor (MBF), which is a transcription complex responsible for regulating the expression of cell cycle genes during the G1/S phase. Transcription analyses of the MBF-dependent cell-cycle genes, including negative feedback regulators, confirmed the up-regulation of these genes by the deletion of lkh1. Pull-down assay confirmed the interaction between Lkh1 and Yox1, which is a negative feedback regulator of MBF. This result supports the involvement of LAMMER kinase in cell cycle regulation by modulating MBF activity. In vitro kinase assay and NetPhosK 2.0 analysis with the Yox1T40,41A mutant allele revealed that T40 and T41 residues are the phosphorylation sites mediated by Lkh1. These sites affect the G1/S cell cycle progression of fission yeast by modulating the activity of the MBF complex.

This study was analyzed the characteristics on the stability of posture while conducting a through two and half rotation technic of pench$\acute{e}$ in rhythmic gymnastics. Two rhythmical gymnastics player(LKH and SSJ) who is a member of the national team were selected, and for obtain the kinematic and kinetic variables were used a ProReflex MCU 240 infrared camera(Qualisys, Sweden) and a Type9286A force platform(Kistler, Switzerland). The mechanical factors were computed by using Visual3D program and Matlab R2009a. During the landing and rotation phase the results showed following characteristics; 1) In medial-lateral and horizontal displacement of the support foot, LKH showed smaller movement than SSJ, but SSJ showed smaller movement than LKH in swing foot. LKH showed bigger movement in medial-lateral axis of COP and vertical axis of COG, but SSJ showed bigger movement in horizontal axis of COP and medial-lateral axis of COG. 2) SSJ showed bigger maximum horizontal and vertical velocity at P1 and P2 than LKH. 3) In the inclination angle of COP and COG, SSJ showed smaller change than LKH, but within medial-lateral tilt of the shoulder, LKH performed rotation motion in horizontal position than SSJ. There was no differences in each force components during rotation, but on landing phase, the results showed a characteristic that SSJ exerted bigger breaking force and vertical force than LKH.

Depending on the acquisition of developmental competence, the expression of genes for ${\beta}$-1,3-glucan synthase and chitin synthase was affected in different ways by Aspergillus nidulans LAMMER kinase. LAMMER kinase deletion, ${\Delta}lkhA$, led to decrease in ${\beta}$-1,3-glucan, but increase in chitin content. The ${\Delta}lkhA$ strain was also resistant to nikkomycin Z.

사용자 그룹 서비스는 IPTV를 비롯한 다양한 분야에 걸쳐 응용되고 있으며, 안전한 그룹 통신을 위해 그룹 키를 사용한다. 그룹 키 관리를 보다 효율적으로 하기 위해 최근 많은 연구에서 트리를 이용한 기법을 제시하였다. 그 중 대표적인 기법은 LKH, OFT 등이 있으며, 이들은 그룹 키를 갱신하는데 필요한 메시지 전송량이 O(lgN) 수준이다. 이후 Sun, Kang 등은 키 갱신에 필요한 메시지 전송량을 O(1) 수준으로 감소시켜 더욱 효율적인 기법을 제안하였다. 본 논문에서는 이와 같은 기법들을 비교분석하여 효율성과 안전성에 대해 재조명하였다.

The SCADA(Supervisory Control And Data Acquisition) system is a control system for infrastructure of nation. In the past, the SCADA system was designed without security function because of its closed operating environment. However, the security of the SCADA system has become an issue with connection to the open network caused by improved technology. In this paper we review the constraints and security requirements for SCADA system and propose advanced key management architecture for secure SCADA communications. The contributions of the present work are that our scheme support both message broadcasting and secure communications, while the existing key management schemes for SCADA system don't support message broadcasting. Moreover, by evenly spreading much of the total amount of computation across high power nodes (MTU or SUB-MTU), our protocol avoids any potential performance bottleneck of the system while keeping the burden on low power (RTU) nodes at minimal.
