Ab initio calculations with various basis sets have been carried out to investigate the geometries and ring inversion barrier of $R_2TiC_3H_6\;and\;R_2TiS_3$, R=Cp and Cl. Optimized geometries of $R_2TiC_3H_6$ showed the four membered ring was planar on Cs symmetry. However, $R_2TiS_3$ complexes were optimized to be stable in the puckered form. The smallest Basis III with STO-3G on Cp ligands gave reasonable results for the calculations of metallocene. The energy barrier for the ring inversion of metallacyclosulfanes, $Cp_2TiS_3$ was computed to be 8.72 kcal/mol at MP2 level. For the Cl system, we reproduced the molecular structure and ring inversion energy with Basis V.

Three conformational isomers of calix[4]arene butanoate were isolated from the reaction of calix[4]arene and butanoyl chloride in the presence of NaH and their structures were determined by NMR spectra as 1,2-alternate 2a, partial cone 2b and 1,3-alternate conformer 2c, respectively. The crystal structure of 2a has been determined by X-ray diffraction method. The crystals are monoclinic, space group C2/c, a=18.435 (4), b=13.774 (2), c=16.941 (3) Å, β=116.23 (1)°, Z=4, V=3858.8 (12)Å3, Dc=1.21 g cm-3, Dm=1.21 g cm-3. The molecule is in the 1,2-alternate conformation. It has two-fold symmetry axis along the line connecting between C (7AA') and C (7BB') parallel to the b axis of crystal lattice.

The crystal structure of chloramphenicol base, $C_9H_{l2}N_2O_4$, the deacylated base of antibiotic chloramphenicol, has been determined by X-ray diffraction techniques using diffractometer data obtained by the ${\omega}-2{\theta}$ scan technique with CuK${\alpha}$ radiation from a crystal with space group symmetry $P2_12_12_1$ and unit cell parameters a = 22.322(6), b = 7.535(6), c = 5.781(5) ${\AA}$. The structure was solved by direct methods and refined by full-matrix least-squares to a final R = 0.051 for the 573 observed reflections. The overall conformation of the base is quite different from those of the chloramphenicol congeners which are similar despite the presence of many rotatable single bonds. The propane chain in the base is bent with respect to the phenyl ring, while it is extended in the chloramphenicol congeners. There is no intramolecular hydrogen bond between the hydroxyl groups of the propanediol moiety. All of the molecules in the crystal lattice are connected by a three-dimensional hydrogen bonding network.

Marker-assisted gene pyramiding aims to produce individuals with superior economic traits according to the optimal breeding scheme which involves selecting a series of favorite target alleles after cross of base populations and pyramiding them into a single genotype. Inspired by the science of evolutionary computation, we used the metaphor of hill-climbing to model the dynamic behavior of gene pyramiding. In consideration of the traditional cross program of animals along with the features of animal segregating populations, four types of cross programs and two types of selection strategies for gene pyramiding are performed from a practical perspective. Two population cross for pyramiding two genes (denoted II), three population cascading cross for pyramiding three genes(denoted III), four population symmetry (denoted IIII-S) and cascading cross for pyramiding four genes (denoted IIII-C), and various schemes (denoted cross program-A-E) are designed for each cross program given different levels of initial favorite allele frequencies, base population sizes and trait heritabilities. The process of gene pyramiding breeding for various schemes are simulated and compared based on the population hamming distance, average superior genotype frequencies and average phenotypic values. By simulation, the results show that the larger base population size and the higher the initial favorite allele frequency the higher the efficiency of gene pyramiding. Parents cross order is shown to be the most important factor in a cascading cross, but has no significant influence on the symmetric cross. The results also show that genotypic selection strategy is superior to phenotypic selection in accelerating gene pyramiding. Moreover, the method and corresponding software was used to compare different cross schemes and selection strategies.

토양에서 얻어진 흄산(HA)을 한외 여과법을 이용 분자량에 따라 4개의 소부분(F1 : 100,000 dalton 이상; F2 : 100,000 dalton 이하;10,000 dalton 이하; F4 : 2,000 dalton 이하)으로 분리한 뒤 적외선 분광법과 핵자기 공명 분광법을 통하여 각 소부분들의 분광학적 특성을 규명하고 상호간에 비교 분석하였다. 4개 소부분들의 $1^H$과 $13^C$ NMR 스펙트럼은 전체적인 특성에서 모두 흄산 모액 스펙트럼과 유사하게 나타났다. 이 결과는 분자량이 변하더라도 흄산의 전체적 특성이 그대로 유지됨을 제시한다. 차이점으로는 IR 스펙트럼 결과 분자량이 적어지면서 다당류 성분 함량이 다소 감소된 반면 카르복실기 성분 함량은 조금 증가된 것으로 나타났다.

유전자 코드는 바이오 정보 처리에 키 포인트로 인체의 유기적인 조직체이다. 현대 과학에서는 유전자 코드 분자구조의 신비스러운 특성을 체계적으로 설명하고 이해하는데 연구가 집중되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 유전자 시스템을 대칭적으로 해석하는데 중점을 두었고, Jacket 행렬로 무잡음 RNA 유전자 코드를 가장 단순하게 해석했다. 이유는 Jacket 행렬과 RNA는 그 역행렬이 Element (Block)-wise Inverse로 그 역(Inverse)도 자신이란 점과 대칭적 성질, 그리고 Kronecker곱을 갖기 때문이다. 제안된 방법이 유전자 RNA 코돈(Codon : 괘(卦))의 견지에서 Jacket 행렬의 분해를 통해 간단하고 명료함을 보인다.

Active galactic nuclei (AGNs) typically show a non-thermal continuum locally represented by a power-law and many prominent emission lines in the UV and optical regions. AGNs are classified by two types, where Type I AGNs exhibit both broad and narrow lines and only narrow lines are observed in Type 2 AGNs. The unification models of AGNs invoke the existence of a molecular torus just outside of the broad line region. In the presence of a high column HI region associated with the molecular torus, we propose that significant fraction of broad line photons near Lyman series can be scattered by atomic hydrogen in the torus. In particular, $Ly{\alpha}$ being the strongest emission line, strong linear polarization may develop around $Ly{\alpha}$ through Rayleigh scattering. We adopt a Monte Carlo technique to investigate the polarized transfer of $Ly{\alpha}$ in a thick HI region with the shape of a torus. We consider the range of HI column density N_HI = 1020-23 with fixed geometric parameters of the torus such as the inner and outer radii and the height. We present the polarized spectra and angular distribution of Rayleigh scattered radiation around $Ly{\alpha}$. We find that the $Ly{\alpha}$ core part is polarized in the direction perpendicular to the symmetry axis whereas in the far wing part it is polarized in the parallel direction. It is concluded that the unification of AGNs implies that $Ly{\alpha}$ can be uniquely polarized through Rayleigh scattering.

Growth and development of a higher plant, or any living organism for that matter, could be defined as an orderly expression of the genome in time and space in close interaction with the environment. During differentiation and development of a tissue or organ a group of genes must be selectively turned on or turned off mainly by trans-acting regulators. In this general concept of regulation of regulation of gene expression, a DNA molecule is recognized at a specific nucleotide sequence by DNA-binding factors. Molecular biology of the regulatory factors such as hormones, and their receptors, target DNA sequences and DNA-binding proteins are well advanced. What is not clearly understood is the molecular basis of the interactions between DNA and binding factors, expecially of the usages of the dyad symmetry of the target DNA sequences and the dimeric nature of the DNA-binding proteins. A unique 3-dimensional structure of DNA has been proposed that may play an important role in the orderly expression of the gene. A foldback intercoil (FBI) DNA configuration which was originally found by electron microscopy among mtDNA molecules from pearl millet has some unique features. The FBI configuration of DNA is believed to be formed when a flexible double helix folds back and interwines in the widened major grooves resulting in a four stranded, intercoil DNA whose thickness is the same as that of double stranded DNA. More recently, the FBI structure of DNA has been also induced in vitro by a novel enzyme which was purified from pearl millet mitochondria. It has been proposed that the FBI DNA could be utillized in intramolecular recombination which leads to inversion or deletion, and in intermolecular recombination which can lead to either site-specific recombination, genetic recombination via single strand invasion, or cross strand recombination. The structure and function of DNA in 3-dimensional aspect is emphasized for better understanding orderly expression of genes during growth and development.

Parkinson's disease is a neurodegenerative disease caused by damage to brain neurons related to dopamine. Non-clinical animal models mainly used in Parkinson's disease research include drug-induced models of 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine and 6-hydroxydopamine, and genetically modified transgenic animal models. Parkinson's diagnosis can be made using brain imaging of the substantia nigra-striatal dopamine system and using a radiotracer that specifically binds to the dopamine transporter. In this study, ¹⁸F-N-(3-fluoropropyl)-2β-carboxymethoxy-3β-(4-iodophenyl) nortropane was used to confirm the image evaluation cutoff between normal and parkinson's disease models, and to confirm model persistence over time. In addition, the efficacy of single or combined administration of clinically used therapeutic drugs in parkinson's animal models was evaluated. Image analysis was performed using the PMOD software. Converted to standardized uptake value, and analyzed by standardized uptake value ratio by dividing the average value of left striatum by the average value of right striatum obtained by applying positron emission tomography images to the atlas magnetic resonance template. The image cutoff of the normal and the parkinson's disease model was calculated as SUVR=0.829, and it was confirmed that it was maintained during the test period. In the three-drug combination administration group, the right and left striatum showed a high symmetry of more than 0.942 on average and recovered significantly. Images using ¹⁸F-N-(3-fluoropropyl)-2β-carboxymethoxy-3β-(4-iodophenyl) nortropane are thought to be able to diagnose and evaluate treatment efficacy of non-clinical Parkinson's disease.
