It was demonstrated that Transactivating transcriptional activator(TAT) protein from HIV-1 shown to enter cells when added to the surrounding media. TAT peptide chemically attached to various proteins was able to deliver these proteins to various cell and even in tissues in mice with high levels in heart and spleen. In this study, the tripeptide GKH(Glycine-Lysine-Histidine) derived from Parathyroid hormone (PTH), which was known as lipolytic peptide, is attached to 9-poly Lysine(TAT) to be used as a cosmetic ingredient for slimming products. When Glycerol release, expressed as extracellular glycerol concentration, is lipolysis index, TAT-GKH at $10^{-5}$mo1/L induces approximately 41.5% maximal lipolytic effects in epididymal adipocytes isolated from rats, compared with basal lipolysis. Epididymal adipose tissues of male rats is assessed ex vivo by microdialysis. Probes are perfused with Ringer solution in which increasing concentrations of TAT-GKH. The perfusion of TAT-GKH induces lipolytic effect. Penetration study showed that TAT-GKH efficiently elevates 36 times higher penetration into the excised hairless mice skin than GKH. in vivo study showed that TAT-GKH had a better effect upon the relative volume of eye bag after 28 days of application on twenty(+2) healthy female volunteers. It was identified that TAT-GKH increases penetration enhancement and lipolytic effects in both in vitro, ex vivo and in vivo.

The Pseudomonas fluorescens KCTC 1767, a selected and identified as potential candidate for stereo-specific resolution of rac-ketoprofen ethyl ester, was systematically investigated in order to induce the high level expression and detailed characterization of the expressing enzyme esterase. We cloned the esterase gene from chromosomal DNA of Pseudomonas fluorescens KCTC 1767 by PCR with two synthetic primers that desinged for simple purification. The recombinant esterase from Pseudomonas fluorescens KCTC 1767 exibited a high conversion rate and enantioselectivity to the (S)-ketoprofen ethyl ester as expected. The enzyme was easily purified to homogeniety by using a metal chelating affinity chromatography as a protein with poly histidine taq, and thus obtained 0.6 mg of protein from a 100 mL culture broth in a single step. The purified enzyme was steadily stable at the pH range from 7.0 to 10. The activity was also retained to be about 70% after the preincubation at $40^{\circ}C$ but over $50^{\circ}C$ lost the activity completely. The molecular mass of the esterase was estimated to be about 43 kDa on SDS-PAGE, and an identical result was also shown in gel filteration chromatography. The specific activity was calculated 27 mM/mg-protein/min by using the rac-ketoprofen ethly ester as a substrate.

{\beta}-CD를 생산하기 위하여 CGTase를 생성하는 Aspergillus sp. CC-2-1 균주를 토양으로부터 분리하였으며, CGTase생성을 위하여 0.1% albumin, 2% $(NH_4)_2S_2O_8$, 2% soluble starch, 0.2% $KH_2PO_4$를 밀기울 배지에 첨가하여 $37^{\circ}C$에서 5일간 배양 시 최대의 활성을 나타내었다. Sephadex G-100과 G-150을 사용한 gel filtration과 DEAE-cellulose를 이용한 이온 교환크로마토그래피로 13.14배 정제하였으며, specific activity는 172.14 unit/mg이었다. 정제효소는 poly-acrylamide gel 전기영동에 의하여 단일밴드로 확인되었으며, 분자량은 gel filtration과 SDS-polyacryl amide 전기영동으로 측정한 결과 27,800정도로 측정되었다. CGTase의 효소학적 특성은 최적 pH, 최적 온도는 pH 9.0과 $80^{\circ}C$였으며, pH $8.0{\sim}11.0$과 $60{\sim}80^{\circ}C$에서 안정하였다. 금속이온 중 $K^+,\;Cu^{++},\;Zn^{++}$에서 효소활성이 증대하였고, 효소활성 저해제 중 iodine과 DNP에 의해서 저해가 나타나 효소분자 중 tyrosine의 phenolic hydroxyl group과 histidine imidazole group과 말단아미노기가 효소구조에서 활성중심에 존재한다고 판단되었다. 효소의 $K_m$값과 $V_{max}$값은 18.182 g/L, 188.68 ${\mu}mol/min$이며, 활성화 에너지는 1.548 kcal/mol이였다.
