  • Resazurin-based microtiter assay was used to evaluate the inhibitory effect of fungicides on the respiration of Colletotrichum acutatum s. lat. 20JDS8 sensitive and 20CDJ6 resistant to strobilurin fungicides. The spores of C. acutatum s. lat. 20JDS8 were inoculated into potato dextrose broth (PDB) at densities of 1x104, 1x105 and 1x106 spores/ml, respectively. The relative fluorescence unit (RFU) of all treatments inoculated at each spore density started to rise after 12 hr of incubation, and were 1,965.5, 5,412.5, and 10,061.0, respectively, after 24 hr of incubation. To evaluate the inhibitory effect of fungicide on the respiration of the pathogen, the spores of the pathogen were inoculated into the PDB and treated with the fungicides 0, 6, 12, and 24 hr after incubation, respectively. After keeping the pathogen culturing for another 24 hr, PrestoBlue reagent was treated into the PDB culturing the pathogen. The RFU of each treatment was examined 1 hr after the reagent was treated. When dithianon, isopyrazam, pyraclostrobin, and fluazinam were treated at high concentrations in the stages of spores (immediately after inoculation [0 hr]), spore germination (after incubation for 6 hr), and hyphal growth (after incubation for 12 hr), the respiration of pathogens was inhibited by 90-100%. When the fungicides were treated after culturing the pathogen for 24 hr, the respiratory inhibitory effects were greatly reduced. With pyraclostrobin-resistant C. acutatum s. lat. 20CDJ6, azxoystrobin, trifloxystrobin and kresoxim-methyl, which have the same mode of action, had very little or no respiratory inhibitory effect in all growth stages of pathogens. Based on the above results, it was thought that the resazurin-based microtiter assay could quickly and accurately evaluate the inhibitory efficacy of the fungicides that inhibited respiration.

  • C-terminus specific immobilization often results in a increased structural stability resistant to various denaturation factors. In order to elucidate the immobilization effect on the c-terminus in molecular level, we made over 200 protein data set from Protein Data Bank(PDB), analyzed c-terminus structure of each protein, and investigated the structural relationship with the stabilizing factors such as hydrogen bond, ion pairs, cation pi, disulfide bond, solvation free energy, surface area, flexibility and so on.

  • Molecular docking of polyhydroxy substituted flavone analogues (1-25) as substrate molecules to the active site of tyrosinase (PDB ID: Deoxy-form (2ZMX) & Oxy-form (1WX2)) and Free-Wilson analysis were studied to understand the roles of hydroxyl substituents ($R_1-R_9$) in substrate molecules for the tyrosinase inhibitory activation. It is founded from Free-Wilson analysis that the $R_1$=hydroxyl among $R_1-R_9$ substituents had the strongest influence on the tyrosinase inhibitory activity. H-bonds between the hydroxyl substituents of substrate molecules and amino acid residues in the active site of tyrosinase were contributed to make a stable substrate-receptor complex compound. Particularly, it is proposed from the findings that the noncompetitive inhibitory activation would take place via H-bonding between peroxide oxygen (Per404) atom in the active site of tyrosinase and the hydroxyl substituents in substrate molecule.

  • The study was performed to purify and characterize laccase in culture of Trametes versicolor. The fungus was grown in liquid culture media of PDB and added 2,5-xylidine (0.2 mM) after 5 days to enhance the production of laccase. The fungal culture was incubated at $25^{\circ}C$ on a rotary shaker (120 rpm) for 7days, and the culture broth was clarified through Glass filter (GF/C). The aqueous solution was concentrated by ultramicrofiltration (Viva flow 50, GE Healthcare Bioscience, USA) and loaded onto a Hitrap Q FF column. Laccase activity could be detected at one peak, and this enzyme has a molecular mass of approximately 53kDa as determined by SDS-PAGE The optimum pH and temperature for syringaldazine were 5.0 and $60^{\circ}C$, respectively. The specific activity of crude, concentrated and purified laccase were 32, 409, and 1,243 U/mg, respectively.

  • In this paper the factors developing ground disturbance with the penetration of PDB mandrels are analysed by using field reconnaissance and laboratory test. In the laboratory tests, the amount of smear zones around the PDB mandrels is compared with respect to the shape and the size of mandrels by penetrating model mandrels of various shapes into the reconstituted clay. The shapes of mandrels selected are circular, oval and rectangular. It was recognized from the field reconnaissance that the size and shape, driving techniques of mandrels, as well as the size and shape of anchor shoe could develop ground disturbance. The mandrels that would reduce the smear effect of clay is oval and rectangular shapes rat her than circular one. It was found that the smear effect becomes smaller as the ratio of the long and short edge of the rectangular shape mandrel becomes larger.

  • The promoting effect of Pseudomonas sp. P7014 on the mycelia growth of Pleurotus eryngii was investigated. An ethyl acetate fraction (F5) from the culture supernatant of the bacteria was confirmed to contain the growth promoting compound (GPC). The GPC was identified to be indole acetic acid (IAA) by TLC, HPLC, MS/MS, and NMR analyses. P. eryngii mycelia grew rapidly both on PDA and in PDB after the treatment of GPC. The promoting concentration of GPC was as low as 1.0 nM. Tryptophan, the aminated form of IAA, was confirmed to be the precursor of IAA. These results suggested that bacterial secreted compound was IAA and plays an important role in promoting growth of mushroom mycelia.

  • In this study, we have isolated bacterial cell wall lytic enzyme in the culture supernatant of Aspergillus sp. HCLF-4. This hydrolase showed cell wall lytic activity against Anabaena cylindrica. The extracellular enzyme was produced by Aspergillus sp. HCLF-4 when it was grown in a PDB media containing 0.05% heat killed Micrococcus luteus cells. The molecular weight of lytic enzyme was about 14.3 kDa. The optimal pH and temperature for the activity of this enzyme were 3.0~4.0 and $30^{\circ}C$, respectively. This hydrolase activity was reduced by $Na^{+}$, $Li^{+}$, $Ca^{2+}$, $Cu^{2+}$, $Fe^{3+}$, EDTA, and PMSF, whereas it was increased by $Mg^{2+}$, $Mn^{2+}$>. The enzyme has N-acetylmuramyl-L-amidase or endopeptidase activity.

  • In computer-based virtual lab, a bioscience researcher who wants to obtain bio information first uses a biodiversity-related database to retrieve information on species, ecology and distribution of an organism. The researcher also needs to access gene/protein databases such as GenBank or PDB to find information on the organism's genetic sequence and protein structure. Furthermore, the researcher should search for academic papers containing the information on the organism so that his research is based on comprehensive and accurate information. This series of activities often undermines research efficiency as it takes a lot of time and causes inconvenience on the part of researchers. To solve such inconvenience, we analyzed various methods for integrated search and chosen schema integration. In addition, we analyzed each databases and extracted metadata for designing schema integration. This paper introduces a biological information retrieval system(BIRS) using schema integration and it's interface that will increase research efficiency for bioscience.
