과요오드산으로 산화시킨 당을 유리아미노산과 반응시켜서 ${\alpha}-NH_2$기와 펩티딜리신의 ${\varepsilon}-NH_2$기와 반응하여 결합한 것을 확인하였다. 그래서, 제조한 과요드산-산화당은 단백질 분자 표면의 리신의 ${\varepsilon}-NH_2$기와 Schiff 염기 반응으로 공유결합하여 당단백질을 만드는 것으로 볼 수 있다. 과요드산 산화당으로 변형한 고구마 ${\beta}$-아밀라아제는 C, H는 증가, N은 감소하였다. N말단의 ${\alpha}-NH_2$기는 70% (pentamer), 73% (monomer), ${\varepsilon}-NH_2$기는 33% (pentamer), 26% (monomer)가 산화당과 반응하였다. 페놀-황산법에 의한 총당 정량과 DNP 법으로 분석한 결과, $IO_4$-산화말토헥사오스는 고구마 ${\beta}$-아밀라아제 1몰당 6몰이 결합된 것으로 나타났고, 고구마 ${\beta}$-아밀라아제에 결합된 산화가용성 전분은 효소단백질 대비 13.2% (monomer), 13.5% (pentamer), 산화말토헥사오스는 9.7% (pentamer), 9.3% (monomer)로 나타났다.

Pentamer cluster of azodicarbonamide (ADA) based on the crystalline structure was investigated for the equilibrium structure, the stabilization energies, and the vibrational properties at various levels of the density functional theory. Stretching force constants of N${\cdot}{\cdot}{\cdot}$H or O${\cdot}{\cdot}{\cdot}$H, and angle-bending force constants of N-H${\cdot}{\cdot}{\cdot}$N or N-H${\cdot}{\cdot}{\cdot}$O for intermolecular hydrogen bonds in the pentamer cluster were obtained in 0.2-0.5 mdyn/$\AA$ and 1.6-2.0 mdyn$\AA$, respectively. The geometry of central ADA molecule fully hydrogen bonded with other four molecules shows good coincidence to the crystalline structure except the bond distances of N-H. Calculated Raman and infrared spectra of central ADA molecule in cluster represent well the experimental spectra of ADA obtained in the solid state compared to a single molecule. Detailed structural and vibrational properties of central ADA molecule in the pentamer cluster are presented.

Silk fibroin model peptide, alanine pentamer was synthesized through solid-phase method and modified with poly(ethylene glycol). Nuclear magnetic resonance spectrometry and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy showed the conformation of alanine pentamer, $\beta$-sheet structure and random coil conformation were not changed with PEGylation. Differential scanning calorimetry showed that relatively strong exothermic peak around $180^{\circ}C$ by PEGylation. No cytotoxicity of PEGylated pentamer was observed by L929 cell proliferation test.

L-alanine (LA, as an amino acid residue) pentamer model was used to investigate changes in the dihedral angle, intramolecular hydrogen bonding and formation energies during structural optimization. LA pentamers having four conformation types [𝛽: 𝜑/𝜓=t-/t+, 𝛼: 𝜑/𝜓=g-/g-, PP_II: 𝜑/𝜓=g-/t+ and P-like: 𝜑/𝜓= g-/g+] were carried out by quantum chemical calculations (QCC) [B3LYP/6-31G(d,p)]. In LA, 𝛽, 𝛼, and P-like types did not change by optimization, having an intra-molecular hydrogen bond: NH⋯OC (H-bond), and PP_II types in the absence of H-bond were transformed into P-like at the designated 𝜓 of 140°, and to 𝛽 at that of 160° or 175°. P-like and 𝛼 were about 0.5 kcal/mol/mu more stable than 𝛽. In order to understand the processes of the transformations, the changes of 𝜑/𝜓, distances of NH-OC (d_NH/CO) and formation energies (𝜟E, kcal/mol/mu) were examined.

In this study, Proline pentamer model was used to investigate change in the dihedral angle, intramolecular hydrogen bonding and formation energies during structural optimization. L-Proline (LP, as an imino acid residue) pentamers having four conformation types [β: φ/ψ=t−/t+, α: φ/ψ=g−/g−, PP_II: φ/ψ=g−/t+ and Plike: φ/ψ= g−/g+] were carried out by QCC [B3LYP/6-31G(d,p)]. The optimized structure and formation energy were examined for designated structure. In LP, P-like and PP_II types did not change by optimization, and β types were transformed into PP_II having no H-bond independently of the designated ψ values. PP_II was more stable than P-like by about 2.2 kcal/mol/mu. The hydrogen bond distances of d2(4-6) type H-bonds were 1.94 - 2.00Å. In order to understand the processes of the transformations, the changes of φ/ψ, distances of NH-OC (d_NH/CO) and formation energies (ΔE, kcal/mol/mu) were examined.

The relative stabilities of weak binding clusters are sensitive to temperature due to the entropy effect. Thus, here we report significant changes in relative stabilities between two low-energy electron-water trimer structures and those between three low-energy electron-water pentamer structures, as the temperature increases. The trimer and pentamer show structural changes around 200 K.

Chitosan을 Bacillus pumilus BN-262 유래의 chitosanase로 처리하여 trimer, tetramer, pentamer가 전체 올리고당 중 64.3%에 달하는 비교적 저분자의 chitooligosaccharides로 구성된 LMW-chitooligosaccharides를 얻었으며, chitosan을 Trichodema viride 유래의 cellulase로 처리하여 중합도 7 이상의 것이 전체 올리고당 중 49.3%에 달하는 상대적으로 분자량이 큰 chitooligosaccharides로 구성된 HMW-chitooligosaccharides 를 얻었다. 제조된 Chitooligosaccharides의 마우스에 대한 급성경구독성을 조사하였다. Chitooligosaccharides는 마우스에 대하여 어떠한 독성 효과도 보이지 않았으며 반수치사량은 5g/kg 이상인 것으로 추정되었다.

GTP cyclohydrolase I (E.C. 3.5.4.16) is a homodecameric protein that catalyzes the conversion of GTP to 7,8-dihydroneopterin triphosphate (H2NTP), the initial step in the biosynthesis of pteridines. It was proposed that the enzyme complex could be composed of a dimer of two pentamers, or a pentamer of tightly associated dimers; then the active site of the enzyme was located at the interface of three monomers (Nar et al. 1995a, b). Using mutant enzymes that were made by site-directed mutagenesis, we showed that a decamer of GTP cyclohydrolase I should be composed of a pentamer of five dimers, and that the active site is located between dimers, as analyzed by a series of size exclusion chromatography and the reconstitution experiment. We also show that the residues Lys 136, Arg139, and Glu152 are of particular importance for the oligomerization of the enzyme complex from five dimers to a decamer.

Density functional calculations and ab initio calculations have been carried out to study the lowest energy structure of the water ($H_2O)_{11}$. Among five structures suggested by four different groups, the lowest energy structure is found to have the skeletal structure of Prism56 (Pr56-24) that a cyclic pentamer and a cyclic hexamer are fused into a prism-shape with 16 hydrogen-bonds (HBs).

A study of small water clusters composed of two to seven molecules has been performed by using the revised empirical potential function for conformational analysis (REPFCA). Various structures of clusters have been investigated and the relative probability of cluster per molecule is discussed. In general, cyclic structures of water clusters are more favorable than open structures. It is found that cyclic pentamer is the most favorable unit structure in the water cluster.
