Spliced leader (SL) trans-splicing is a mRNA processing mechanism in dinoflagellate nuclear genes. Although studies have identified a short, conserved dinoflagellate SL (dinoSL) sequence (22-nt) in their nuclear-encoded transcripts, whether the majority of nuclear-coded transcripts in dinoflagellates have the dinoSL sequence remains doubtful. In this study, we investigated dinoSL-containing gene transcripts using 454 pyrosequencing data (Cochlodinium polykrikoides, 93 K sequence reads, 31 Mb; Prorocentrum minimum, 773 K sequence reads, 291 Mb). After making comparisons and performing local BLAST searches, we identified dinoSL for one C. polykrikoides gene transcript and eight P. minimum gene transcripts. This showed transcripts containing the dinoSL sequence were markedly fewer in number than the total expressed sequence tag (EST) transcripts. In addition, we found no direct evidence to prove that most dinoflagellate nuclear-coded transcripts have this dinoSL sequence.

In this paper, we verify the performance of LDPC coded OFDM/DS system by Monte-Carlo simulation of BER on Eb/No. The simulation results show that LDPC coded OFDM/DS has a strong anti-jamming characteristic over pulse-noise jammer and partial-band noise jammer. The performance of LDPC coded OFDM/DS system is evaluated on both faded waveforms and non-faded waveforms. For non-faded waveforms, high coding gain is attained due to LDPC, even when waveforms have short PN sequence and JSR is only 5dB. Especially, the increase in the repeated number of LDPC decoding enhances coding gain. However, faded waveforms cannot achieve sufficient average effect when PN sequence is short. High coding gain of faded waveforms can be achieved by extending length of PN sequence. In addition, we compare LDPC coded OFDM/DS system with Convolutional coded OFDM/DS system. The simulation results illustrate that when LDPC coded OFDM/DS system with short PN sequence has sufficient average effects, the system shows lower BER than Convolutional coded OFDM/DS system with long PN sequence.

In this paper, a new extending method of q-ary low correlation zone(LCZ) sequence sets is proposed, which is a generalization of binary LCZ sequence set by Kim, Jang, No, and Chung. Using this method, q-ary LCZ sequence set with parameters (N,M,L,${\epsilon}$) is extended as a q-ary LCZ sequence set with parameters (pN,pM,p[(L+1)/p]-1,p${\epsilon}$), where p is prime and p|q.

Heat shock RNA 1 (HSR1) is described as a "eukaryotic heat-sensing noncoding RNA" that regulates heat shock response in human and other eukaryotic cells. Highly conserved HSR1 sequences have been identified from humans, hamsters, Drosophila, Caenorhabditis elegans, and Arabidopsis. In a previous study, however, it was suggested that HSR1 had originated from a bacterial genome. HSR1 showed no detectible nucleotide sequence similarity to any eukaryotic sequences but harbored a protein coding region that showed amino-acid sequence similarity to bacterial voltage-gated chloride channel proteins. The bacterial origin of HSR1 was not convincible because the nucleotide sequence similarity was marginal. In this study, we have found that a genomic contig sequence of Comamonas testosteroni strain JL14 contained a sequence virtually identical to that of HSR1, decisively confirming the bacterial origin of HSR1. Thus, HSR1 is an exogenous RNA, which can ectopically trigger heat shock response in eukaryotes. Therefore, it is no longer appropriate to cite HSR1 as a "eukaryotic functional noncoding RNA."

The xylA gene of Bacillus stearothermophilus No. 236 encoding $\beta$-xylosidase was cloned and sequenced previously. The transcriptional start site of the xylA gene cloned in E. coli was identified to be the guanine (G) by primer extension analysis. This supports that the expression of xylA gene is also directed in the E. coli cells by the previously determined transcription initiation signals, -10 sequence (CATAAT) and -35 sequence (TTGTTA) separated by 12 bp. To increase the expression of $\beta$-xylosidase, firstly the spacer region of xylA promoter was extended from 12 to 17 bp, and then the -10 and -35 elements were converted into their respective consensus sequences. The mutant promoters thus obtained were tested for their activities in both the E. coli and B. subtilis host cells. The change of the length of the spacer region from 12 to 17 bp resulted in a 1.6- and 2.5-fold increase in promoter strength in comparison with the wild type promoter in E. coli and B. subtilis cells, respectively. Also, strength of the promoter with the fourth T to A transversion on its -35 element increased in the transcription level by about 35 times compared with that of wild-type promoter. However, surprisingly the 5' end C-to-T transition of the -10 hexamer showed a 5- to 15-fold reduction in $\beta$-xylosidase activity in both E. coli and B. subtilis. Together, the present data demonstrated that the 5' end nucleotide C of the -10 sequence CATAAT and the fourth nucleotide A of the -35 hexamer are two most critical nucleotides for the promoter activity in the context of the xylA promoter.

This paper describes the automatic generation of sequence control programs for DCS(Distributed Control System), PLC(Programable Logic Controller) and so on. Since there is no same manufacturing process, it is difficult to standardize sequence programs. We propose the automatic sequence control program generator which is CAD software using knowledge engineering technique.

Based on the known binary sequence sets and Gray mapping, a new method for constructing quaternary sequence sets is presented and the resulting sequence sets' properties are investigated. As three direct applications of the proposed method, when we choose the binary aperiodic, periodic, and Z-complementary sequence sets as the known binary sequence sets, the resultant quaternary sequence sets are the quaternary aperiodic, periodic, and Z-complementary sequence sets, respectively. In comparison with themethod proposed by Jang et al., the new method can cope with either both the aperiodic and periodic cases or both even and odd lengths of sub-sequences, whereas the former is only fit for the periodic case with even length of sub-sequences. As a consequence, by both our and Jang et al.'s methods, an arbitrary binary aperiodic, periodic, or Z-complementary sequence set can be transformed into a quaternary one no matter its length of sub-sequences is odd or even. Finally, a table on the existing quaternary periodic complementary sequence sets is given as well.

Pleurotus ostreatus No.42, known as the ligninolytic basidiomycetes, showed production of MnP and Lac, but did not show any LiP acitivity in static culture, grown in GPYW liquid medium. Maximum production of MnP (80U/flask) was observed on day 11 of culturing in this medium. Chromatographic purification of MnP included the use of Sepharose CL-6B and Mono-Q. The major MnP isozyme purified by column chromatography was observed to be a 36.4 KDa (single band on SDS PAGE). The 19-amino acid sequence from the N-terminal was determined by protein sequencing to be ATCADGRTTANAACCVLFP. The N-terminal sequence of the major MnP isozyme of P. ostreatus No.42 was found to be the same as a previously reported sequence of an MnP3 isozyme from this fungus.

In this paper a sequence estimator of CDMA communication system is suggested. A sequence estimator uses Galois Field operation. A sequence estimator can provide another CDMA pilot signal which is un-modulated spreaded signal. A estimated sequence signal and received signal have no correlation. Tow signals can be summed using MRC(maximal ratio combine) method. The stronger signal can be added as a larger ratio, but the weaker signal can be added as a smaller ratio. We can distinguish strong signal using SNR estimator. Therefore it is possible to receive an additional pilot signal, and to support more reliable communications by using sequence estimator.

Molecular amplification and sequencing of genomic DNA that encodes camel polyubiquitin (PUBC1) was performed by a polymerase chain reaction (PCR) using various sets of primers. The amplification generated a number of DNA fragments, which were sequenced and compared with the polyubiquitin coding sequences of various species. One DNA fragment that conformed to 325 bp was found to be 95 and 88% homologous to the sequences of human polyubiquitin B and C, respectively. The DNA translated into 108 amino acids that corresponded to two fused units of ubiquitin with no intervening sequence, which indicates that it is a polyubiquitin and contains at least two units of ubiquitin. Although, variations were found in the nucleotide sequence when compared to those of other species, the amino acid sequence was 100% homologous to the polyubiquitin sequences of humans, mice, and rats. This is the first report of the polyubiquitin DNA coding sequence and its corresponding amino acid sequence from camels, amplified using direct genomic DNA preparations.
