우리는 처음으로 쌍별귀뚜라미 소화기관에서 6종류의 미생물을 분리하고 특성을 규명하였다. 이들은 16S rDNA을 기준으로 분류한 결과 4종류(Staphylococcus, Bacillus, Citrobacter, Proteus)에 속하였다. 분리된 6종류의 미생물은 공통적으로 ampicillin에 저항성을 보이지만 kanamycin 저항성은 보이지 않았다. 이들을 Gram염색하여 미생물의 형태적 특징을 확인하였다. Gram-positive한 rod-shaped GL2와 round-shaped GL4는 다른 분리 균 보다 많은 양의 세포외분비물을 만들었다, 이들을 MALDI-TOF-MS spectral analysis결과 87-kDa collagenase, 56-kDa & 200-kDa hypothetical protein이였다. 새롭게 분리된 6종류의 미생물은 귀뚜라미의 생리에 미치는 영향과 이들의 생물공학적 혹은 해충 방제에 이용될 수 있는 연구가 기대된다.

This study investigated the characteristics of wood tar, produced as a byproduct during the production of charcoal using oak wood by the modified traditional kiln and mechanical steel kiln. The wood tar was analyzed with a number of techniques, including Py-GC/MS, NMR, MALDI-TOF, FT-IR, TG and DSC. The Py-GC/MS analysis indicated that modified traditional kiln generated a higher hydrocarbon ratio in the wood tar than that of mechanical steel kiln. On the other hand, mechanical steel kiln resulted in a higher proportion of phenolic and aromatic hydrocarbon components than that of modified traditional kiln. Those results were also confirmed by NMR analysis. The MALDI-TOF analysis suggested that the wood tar produced in the mechanical steel kiln had a slightly higher molecular weight than the wood tar produced in the modified traditional kiln. In addition, the FT-IR analysis showed characteristic peak of symmetrical stretching vibration of $CH_3$ from the modified traditional kiln while characteristic peaks of the C-C and C-O stretching vibration were observed from the mechanical steel kiln. Moreover, TG and DSC analysis suggested that the mechanical steel kiln is more thermally stable than that of modified traditional kiln. Those findings clearly showed that the method of making charcoal greatly affects the properties of wood tar.

Vibrio anguillarum is a gram-negative bacterium that causes vibriosis in approximately 80 different fish species. V. anguillarum produces several exotoxins are correlated with the pathogenesis of vibriosis. This study is focused on the composition of the outer membrane vesicle. Most of gram-negative bacteria produce outer membrane vesicle (OMV) during cell growth. OMV was formed from the outer membrane surface of cell and than released to extracellular environment. OMV consists of outer membrane lipids, outer membrane protein (OMP), LPS, and soluble periplasmic components. Also, they contain toxins, adhesions, and immunomodulatory. Many gram-negative bacteria were studied out forming OMV. In Vibrio sp., formation of OMV by electron microscopy has been reported from V. cholerae and V. parahaemolyticus. In present study, we isolated OMV from V. anguillarum and OMV protein was separated by SDS-PAGE. Magor band was sliced and analyzed by MALDI-TOF. The major protein band of 38kDa was identified as OmpU by MALDI-TOF MS analysis.

자연발효된 청국장으로부터 혈전용해활성을 가지는 세균 Bacillus licheniformis HK-12를 농화분리하여, 배양기간 동안 생산된 혈전용해활성을 가지는 단백질에 대해 프로테옴 분석을 실시하였다. B. licheniformis HK-12를 액체 영양배지에 접종하여 얻어진 배양상등액을 피브린 평판법(fibrin plate method)을 사용하여 효소활성을 측정하였다. 그 결과, HK-12의 혈전용해 활성은 대조구인 plasmin보다 약 2.3배정도 높은 활성을 나타내었다. 효소는 배양상등액을 ammonium sulfate 침전, DEAE-cellulose chromatography, Sephadex chromatography 등을 수행하여 분리정제하였으며, 정제된 혈전용해효소의 분자량은 SDS-PAGE를 통해 약 23 kDa로 측정되었다. 배양시간에 따른 HK-6의 세포외 단백질의 변화를 2-D PAGE 분석을 통하여 분석하였다. 그 결과 36시간배양 후에 가장 현저하게 유도된 spot #1을 분리하였으며, MALDI-TOF MS를 이용하여 단백질 동정을 실시한 결과, 유도된 단백질의 아미노산 서열은 $^1EKKIEKYREEEORLK^{15}$으로서, serine protein kinase (PrkA) (AAU22526)로 확인되었다.

Background: Cancer loci comprise heterogeneous cell populations with diverse cellular secretions. Therefore, disseminating cancer-specific or cancer-associated protein antigens from tissue lysates could only be marginally correct, if otherwise not validated against precise standards. Materials and Methods: In this study, 2DE proteomic profiles were examined from lysates of 13 lung-adenocarcinoma tissue samples and matched against the A549 cell line proteome. A549 matched-cancer-specific hits were analyzed and characterized by MALDI-TOF/MS. Results: Comparative analysis identified a total of 13 protein spots with differential expression. These proteins were found to be involved in critical cellular functions regulating pyrimidine metabolism, pentose phosphate pathway and integrin signaling. Gene ontology based analysis classified majority of protein hits responsible for metabolic processes. Among these, only a single non-predictive protein spot was found to be a cancer cell specific hit, identified as Armadillo repeat-containing protein 8 (ARMC8). Pathway reconstruction studies showed that ARMC8 lies at the centre of cancer metabolic pathways. Conclusions: The findings in this report are suggestive of a regulatory role of ARMC8 in control of proliferation and differentiation in lung adenocarcinomas.

Single seeds of common buckwheat cultivar Suwon No. 1 when subjected to SDS-PAGE revealed very high polymorphism. High variation existed for protein or protein subunits with molecular weight 54-47kDa, 45-25kDa and 16-11kDa. The electrophoregram showed variation for globulin as well as other protein fractions. About 300 proteins were separated by two-dimensional electrophoresis in common buckwheat (Fagopyrum esculentum Moench.) seed. Seed maturation is a dynamic and temporally regulated phase of seed development that determines the composition of storage proteins reserves in mature seeds. Buckwheat seeds from 5, 10, 15, 20, and 25 days after pollination and matured stage were used for the analysis. This led to the establishment of high-resolution proteome reference maps, expression profiles of 48 spots. It was identified 48 proteins from MALDI-TOF/MS analysis of wild buckwheat seed storage proteins. The 48 proteins were found identical or similar to those of proteins reported in buckwheat and other plants; it is belonging to 9 major functional categories including seed storage proteins, stress/defense response, protein synthesis, photosynthesis, allergy proteins, amino acid, enzyme, metabolism, and miscellaneous. It appears that the major allergenic storage protein separated played the important role in buckwheat breeding and biochemical characterization.

Of the Acinetobacter spp., A. baumannii (genospecies 2) is the most clinically significant in terms of hospital-acquired infections worldwide. It is difficult to perform Acinetobacter-related taxonomy using phenotypic characteristics and routine laboratory methods owing to clusters of closely related species. The ability to accurately identify Acinetobacter spp. is clinically important because antimicrobial susceptibility and clinical relevance differs significantly among the different genospecies. Based on the medical importance of pathogenic Acinetobacter spp., the distribution and characterization of Acinetobacter spp. isolates from 123 clinical samples was determined in the current study using four typically applied bacterial identification methods; partial rpoB gene sequencing, amplified rRNA gene restriction analysis (ARDRA) of the intergenic transcribed spacer (ITS) region of the 16~23S rRNA, the $VITEK^{(R)}$ 2 system (an automated microbial identification system) and matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization-time of flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS). A. baumannii isolates (74.8%, 92/123) were the most common species, A. nosocomialis (10.6%, 13/123) and A. pittii isolates (7.5%, 9/123) were second and third most common strains of the A. calcoaceticus-A. baumannii (ACB) complex, respectively. A. soli (5.0%, 6/123) was the most common species of the non-ACB complex. RpoB gene sequencing and ARDRA of the ITS region were demonstrated to lead to more accurate species identification than the other methods of analysis used in this study. These results suggest that the use of rpoB genotyping and ARDRA of the ITS region is useful for the species-level identification of Acinetobacter isolates.
