  • To determine an increased acid tolerance of an adipic acid-resistant mutant Leuconostoc mesenteroides(ANaM100) developed for use as a Kimchi starter, proton permeability of cytoplasm, activities of H+-ATPase, Mg++ release and fatty acid composition of cytoplasmic membranes of strain ANaM100 were studied and compared with those of its wild type (LMw). The value of protons permeability of LMw after an acid shock at pH 5.0 was 5.4 min., while the value of ANaM100 cells was 8.4 min. at the same pH. The pH of maximal specific activ-ities of ATPase originated from the LMw and ANaM100 were 0.87 unit/mg protein at pH 6.0 and 0.92 unit/mg pro-tein at pH 5.5, respectively. The release of magnesium ion from ANaM100 was observed about 12.8% at pH 4 after 2 hours, while the wild strains of LMw released Mg++ about 27.6% under the same conditions. The content of C19:0,cyclo and C18:1 in a membrane fatty acid of ANaM100 was higher and lower, respectively than that of LMw. These results indicated that acid tolerance of adipic acid-resistant strain, ANaM100 was significantly improved in comparison with that of its wild type, LMw. In addition, the strain ANaM100 was adipic resistance based on the result of growth of the strain in comparison with that of strain LMw in a broth containing adipic acid.

  • Objectives: This research was performed in order to observe the neuropsychological implication and functional anatomical source of event related potentials(ERP) by studying of correlations between event related potentials and neuropsychological tests. Methods: The latency and voltage of P100 of visual evoked potential (VEP), and N120 and P300 of event related potentials were studied in 56 patients and their correlations with neuropsychological tests were computed. Results: The tests showing significant correlation with latency P100 were visual continous performance test(VCPT) and contingent continous performance test(CCPT) without any significant correlation with voltage of P100. In latency of N120 category test and verbal IQ of KWIS showed significant correlation, and in voltage of N120, finger tapping test, VCPT, CCPT and digit symbol test displayed significant correlations. The latency of P300 had significant correlation with trail making A test and Stroop test. In the voltage of P300 significant correlations were shown with trail making B test, digit symbol test and Wechsler memory scale, finger tapping test, stroop test, VCPT and CCPT. Conclusion : N120 may be considered to reflect the function of medial frontal lobe and P300 may be considered to be developed from the subcortical connection of medial temporal lobe, hippocampus, thalamus, basal ganglia and medial frontal lobe.

  • The SSH100-10 bacterial strain, which exhibits strong antifungal (anti-mold and anti-yeast) activity, was isolated from traditional korean soysauce aged 100 years. The strain was identified as Bacillus velezensis based on Gram-staining, the biochemical properties and 16S rRNA gene sequence determination. B. velezensis SSH100-10 showed strong proteinase activity and NaCl tolerance, but did not produce enterotoxin. Two-antifungal compounds from B. velezensis SSH100-10 were purified using SPE, preparative HPLC, and reverse phase-HPLC. The purified antifungal compounds were identified as $C_{14}$ and $C_{15}$ iturin through MALDI-TOF-MS and amino acid composition analysis. The stability characteristics of the antifungal compounds after temperature, pH, and enzyme treatments suggested that B. velezensis SSH100-10 produced more than two antifungal compounds; pH-stable $C_{14}$ iturin A and $C_{15}$ iturin A, and unidentified pH-unstable compounds. The results suggested that B. velezensis SSH100-10 can be used in soybean fermentation as a starter. Moreover it has potential as a biopreservative in the food and feed industry and as a biocontrol agent in the field of agriculture.

  • Recombinant plasmid shuttle vectors were constructed for genetic studies on the oxidation of carbon monoxide by carboxydobacteria. Two vectors. pYK322 (7.2 kb, Ap'. Tc') and pYK 324 (7.2 kb, Ap', Tc'), were constructed using pBR322 and pYK100. a small plasmid in Pseudomonas carbo,xydovorans. Four plasmids. pYK2IO (5.2 kb. Cm'), pYK220 (5.2 kb, Cmr), pYK230 (5.2 kb, Cm'), and pYK232 (5.2 kb. Cm'), were constructed using pACYC184 and pYK100. Transformation of several carboxydobacteria with pYK322 and pYK220 was round to be efficient when the cells were transformed by the methoti of Bagdasarian and Timmis (Curr. Top. Microbiol. Immunol. 96:47-67. 1982) with several modifications; cells growing on 0.2% succinate were harvested at the mid-exponential phase. 10 mM RbCl in transformation solution was substituted with 100 mM KCI. cclls in transformation solution were incubated for 12 h at 4'C before addition of DNA and heat shock was carried out for 3 min at 45$^{\circ}$C. Plasmid vectors used for transformation, however. were not detected from antibiotics-resistant transformants, suggesting that the vectors may be integrated into the chromosomal DNA.

  • For selective elimination of salt in the boiled extract of baby neck clam (Tapes variegata, BEBNC), electrodialyzer was used and the desalination conditions of BEBNC were determined at various concentrations, pH's and volumes of BEBNC. The ion-exchange membrane with a molecular weight cut off 100 Da was used for desalting of BEBNC. The desalination times on BEBNC concentrations of 0.5% and 4% were 100 min and 170 min and the final desalting ratio was above 90%. 1'he desalination of BEBNC at pH 4.0 was 12% higher than that at pH 9.0 for 60 min. The electrodialysis process could remove above 90% of the initial salt content in 2% BEBNC of 1 L for 80 min. The results obtained prove that electrodialysis is a practical solution to the problem of selective elimination of salt from BEBNC.

  • p11 protein (S100A10) is downregulated in depressive-like states of human and rodent. Antidepressant drug treatment increases p11 levels in rodent models. We reviewed studies demonstrating that p11 levels are regulated in depression and by antidepressant treatment and that p11 upregulation exerts antidepressant effects. Current studies on p11 underscore the importance of p11 as a potential antidepressant target.

  • The pupa (7th. day after mounting) were irradiated for foully minutes with 1,000${\gamma}$-ray and the copulation was done under the various conditions when the pupa grew to be imagos. The silkworm eggs that the imagos laid were divided into many groups by five, fifteen, foully-five, ninety, seven-hundred, twenty and twenty-four hundred minutes eggs respectively and the lipid phosphorus in the each group of eggs was analyzed as follows. 1. The quantity of 928${\gamma}$/100mg dry powder (D. P.) was shown in the group of the fourt-five minutes eggs whose ovum nucleus and sperm nucleus were not conjugate in the control C (male and female). The number of the greatest quantity of 944${\gamma}$/100mg D.P. after the syngamy of ovum nucleus and sperm nucleus while the smallest quantity was 768${\gamma}$/100mg D.P. in the group of ninety minutes eggs. 2. Not much difference could be seen the copulation group of female irradiation and male control and the copulation group of male irradiation and female control compared to the both male and female control group, but the influence could be seen in the group of irradiated female pupas. 3. The great difference could be seen in the group of irradiated male and female pupa compared to the control group. The five minutes eggs showed the smallest quantity of 536${\gamma}$/100mg D.P. and the quantity of lipid phosphorus rapidly began to increase from the fifteen minutes eggs. The quantity amounted to 1,082${\gamma}$/100 mg D.P. in the case of seven hundred and twenty minutes eggs while the quantity decreased in the twenty-four hundred minutes eggs which showed 912${\gamma}$/100 mg D.P. The general result obtained in the present study was that the irradiated male and female pupa were greatly influenced before and after the syngamy of gamete.

  • Apolipoprotein B-100 (Apo-B100) is a major protein component for low density lipoproteins (LDL). A number of mimetic peptides of Apo-B100 were screened from the phase-displayed random peptide library by utilizing monoclonal antibody (B9). Mimetic peptide for B9 epitope against apo B-100 was CRNVPPIFNDVYWIAF (pB1). From the BLAST search, the mimetic peptide pB1 had 40% homology with apo B-100. As a result of the structural determination of this mimotope using homo/hetero nuclear 2D-NMR techniques and NMR-based distance geometry (DG)/molecular dynamic (MD) computations, DG structure had low penalty value of 0.3-0.6 ${\AA}^2$ and the total RMSD was 0.5-1.5 ${\AA}. Moreover, pB1 structure included a weak $3_{10}$-helix from $Ile^7$,/TEX> to $Trp^{13}$.

  • This experiment was conducted to evaluate the lysine cell mass (LCM) as a dietary fish meal (EM) protein replacer in juvenile Israeli carp, Cyprinus carpio. Fishmeal, a major animal protein source in the control diet, was replaced by tCM on the protein equivalent base, Fish averaging 1,7 $\pm$ 0.1 g (Mean $\pm$ SD) fed one of nine diets containing isonitrogenous and isocaloric basis of $38\%$ crude protein and 15.2 kJ available energy/g diet: control, $100\%$ $FM; LCM_20$, $80\%$ $FM+20\%$ $LCM; LCM_40$, $60\%$ $FM+40\%$ $LCM; LCM_60$, $40\%$ $FM+60\%$ $LCM; LCM_100$, $100\%$ $LCM; LCM_20$l, $80\%$ $FM+20\%$ $LCM+0.07\%$ $Lysine; LCM_40$l, $60\%$ $FM+40\%$ $LCM+0.14\%$ $Lysine; LCM_60$l $40\%$ $FM+60\%$ $LCM+0.22\%$ Lysine; LCM_100l, $100\%$ LCM+$0.35\% Lysine. After 6 weeks of feeding trial there was no significant difference in weight gain (WG), feed efficiency (FE), protein efficiency ratio (PER) and specific growth rate (SGR) among fish fed control and $LCM_20$ (P>0.05), while fish fed $LCM_40,\;LCM_60,\;LCM_100,\;LCM_40l,\;LCM_60l\;and\;LCM_100l$ diets had a significantly lower WG, FE, PER and SGR than did fish fed control diet (P<0.05). There was no significant difference in WG, PER and SGR among fish fed control and $LCM_20$l diets (P>0.05), while fish fed $LCM_20$l S had a significantly lower FE than did fish fed control diet (P<0.05). No significant difference was observed in hematocrit and condition facto, among fish fed nine diets (P>0.05). Therefore, these results indicated that LCM could replace FM up to $20\%$ and dietary synthetic lysine supplementation did not show any positive growth effects in juvenile Israeli carp.
