  • 콩의 PR10 유전자(GmPR10)를 벼에 형질전환하여 GmPR10 전이 유전자의 발현 정도와 내염성 관련 형질의 반응 사이의 인과관계를 조사하여 염 스트레스에 대한 GmPR10 생리적 기능을 분석하고 내염성 유전자원을 개발하였다. 1. 전이 유전자는 형질전환 계통에 따라 게놈 내에 1 ~ 6개의 사본이 도입되었고, 선발된 8개의 형질전환 계통 모두에서 전이 유전자가 발현되었으며, 발현 정도는 계통에 따라 변이를 보였다. 2. $T_1$세대 2계통의 형질전환 식물체와 비 형질전환 식물체에 125mM NaCl을 시간별로 처리한 결과, 전이 유전자 GmPR10의 전사체 검출양은 2계통의 형질전환체에서 모두 염처리 6시간까지 증가하였고, 12시간 이후에는 감소하였다. 3. 세포의 전해질 누출율은 형질전환체가 비 형질전환체에 비해 낮았고, 뿌리가 잎보다 낮았다. 또한, 전이 유전자 전사체의 검출량이 높을수록 전해질 누출율은 낮았다. 4. NaCl 용액에서의 생육 정도는 형질전환체가 비 형질전환체보다 현저히 양호하였으며 GmPR10 전이 유전자의 발현이 높을수록 생육 정도가 더 좋았다. 결론적으로 GmPR10 은 내염성을 증진시키는 기능이 있으며, GmPR10 전이유전자의 발현이 높은 계통은 내염성 벼 육성용 소재로 이용할 수 있을 것으로 평가된다.

  • 그 동안 정부기관은 소위 대민홍보를 중심으로 하는 일방향적 커뮤니케이션 구성과 방식에 익숙해져 있으며, 이로 인해 정부의 공공정책에 관심을 가지고 이를 이해하고 적극적으로 참여하는 수용자들의 태도가 극히 드물었던 것이 사실이다. 그러나 스마트 단말기의 폭발적인 보급으로 인해 정부기관의 공공정책에 대한 PR 방식이 SNS, 어플리케이션 제작 등으로 다각화되고, 이를 통해 관련 정보에 대한 수용자의 이해도는 물론 참여를 적극적으로 높이는 계기를 맞이하고 있다. 이와 같은 배경에서 본 연구는 정부 등 공공기관이 SNS를 통한 PR 캠페인 활동을 좀 더 효율적으로 구성할 수 있는 방안을 모색하고자 국내 및 미국의 사례를 통해 정부정책 신뢰도 제고를 위한 SNS 전략의 유형과 특징을 살펴보고 이에 대한 함의를 찾고자 했다.

  • Spatial and temporal expression of pathogenesis-related (PR) gene and proteins has been recognized as inducible defense response in pepper plants. Gene expression and/or protein accumulation of PR-1, $\beta-1,3-glucanase$ and chitinase was predominantly found in pepper plants during the inoculations by Xanthomonas campestris pv. vesicatoria, Phytophthora capsici and Colletotrichum coccodes. PR-1 and chitinase genes were also induced in pepper plants in response to environmental stresses, such as high salinity and drought. PR-1 and chitinase gene expressions by biotic and abiotic stresses were regulated by their own promoter regions containing several stress-related cis-acting elements. Overexpression of pepper PR-1 or chitinase genes in heterogeneous transgenic plants showed enhanced disease resistance as well as environmental stress tolerances. In this review, we focused on the putative function of pepper PR-1, $\beta-1,3-glucanase$ and chitinase proteins and/or genes at the biochemical, molecular and cytological aspects.

  • Distribution of Pr ions between Y- and Ba-site of the $Y(Ba_{1-Xn}Pr_{Xn})_2Cu_3O_y$ ($0{\leq}Xn{\leq}{0.3}$, Xn : nominal composition) material prepared by the solid state reaction method was studied. Although the samples have narrow superconducting transition, tiny peaks of $Y_2BaCuO_5$ impurity phase are included in the x-ray diffraction patterns suggesting that some of the Pr ions are entered into the Y-site. The distribution of Pr ions between Y- and Ba-site was determined by measuring the mass fraction of YBCO and $Y_2BaCuO_5$ phase for each sample through the Rietveld analysis of the x-ray diffraction data. About 60 % of Pr ions occupy the Y-site regardless of the Pr content. Various superconducting parameters such as the oxygen content and the hole concentration etc. are compared before and after the impurity correction.

  • The conformations of dicyclopropyl, isopropyl cyclopropyl, and diisopropylcarbenes were optimized using density functional theory (B3LYP/6-31G(d)). We showed that the optimized geometries of carbenes with cyclopropyl groups are fully in accord with those expected for bisected W-shaped conformations, in which the effective hyperconjugation of a cyclopropyl group with singlet carbene can occur. The stabilization energies were evaluated at the B3LYP/6-311+G(3df, 2p)//B3LYP/6-31G(d) + ZPE level using an isodesmic equation. The relative stability of carbenes is in the order $(c-Pr)_2$C: > (i-Pr)(c-Pr)C: > $(i-Pr)_2$C:, and a cyclopropyl group stabilizes carbene more than an isopropyl group by nearly 9 kcal/mol. Energies for the decomposition of diazo compounds to carbenes increase in the order $(c-Pr)_2$ < (i-Pr)(c-Pr) < $(i-Pr)_2$ by ~9 kcal/mol each. From a singlettriplet energy gap ($E_{ST}$) calculation, the singlet level is lower than the triplet level and the $E_{ST}$ shows a trend similar to the stabilization energy calculations. For comparison, the optimized geometries and stabilization energies for the corresponding carbocations were also studied at the same level of calculation. The greater changes in geometries and the higher stabilization energies for carbocations compared to carbenes can explain the greater hyperconjugation effect.

  • A lithiated compound $Li_{0.1}Pr^{3+}Ba_2Cu_3O_y$ has been successfully prepared by electrochemical method, which is achieved with a two electrode cell of the type: Metal(Li)/($Li^+\;,\;ClO_4^-$) + propylene carbonate/$PrBa_2Cu_3O_y$. All Pr ions in the lithiated compound are stabilized with a trivalent state as the other rare earths (Ⅲ) substituted in the 90K superconductor lattice ($Y_{1-x}Ln_x^-Ba_2Cu_3O_{7-{\delta}}$). Powder X-ray diffraction analysis shows that both compounds, $PrBa_2Cu_3O_y$ and $Li_{0.1}PrBa_2Cu_3O_y$ are isostructural with the 90 K superconductor, ($YBa_2Cu_3O_{7-{\delta}}$), nevertheless both of them are non-metallic and also non-superconducting down to 10 K. Magnetic susceptibility ${\chi}$ vs. temperature data indicate that Curie contribution from the magnetic ions (Pr and Cu) is weakened on the one hand, but on the other hand temperature-independent part of susceptibility ${\chi}_o$ increases depending upon the rate of lithium intercalation in $PrBa_2Cu_3O_y$ lattice.

  • Numerous studies have investigated the cellular prion protein (PrPC) since its discovery. These investigations have explained that its structure is predominantly composed of alpha helices and short beta sheet segments, and when its abnormal scrapie isoform (PrPSc) is infected, PrPSc transforms the PrPC, leading to prion diseases, including Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease in humans and bovine spongiform encephalopathy in cattle. Given its ubiquitous distribution across a variety of cellular types, the PrPC manifests a diverse range of biological functions, including cell-cell adhesion, neuroprotection, signalings, and oxidative stress response. PrPC is also expressed in immune tissues, and its functions in these tissues include the activation of immune cells and the formation of secondary lymphoid tissues, such as the spleen and lymph nodes. Moreover, high expression of PrPC in immune cells plays a crucial role in the pathogenesis of prion diseases. In addition, it affects inflammation and the development and progression of cancer via various mechanisms. In this review, we discuss the studies on the role of PrPC from various immunological perspectives.

  • 최근 SNS 사용자가 증가함에 따라 정부부처의 홍보에도 SNS가 주요 홍보채널로 등장하였다. 특히 리스크를 관리하는 데 있어서 SNS는 유용한 도구이자 새로운 도전 과제가 되었다. 우리나라에서 원자력은 주요한 리스크 중 하나이며, 원자력 규제기관이 국민과 어떻게 소통하고 있는가는 원자력시설에 대한 신뢰 혹은 수용성에 매우 주요한 영향을 미칠 수 있다. 이를 반영하여 본 연구는 한국(NSSC)과 미국(NRC) 양국의 원자력규제를 담당하는 정부부처의 SNS 활용과 수용자 반응을 비교 분석했다. 연구 결과, 양 기관 모두 '정보제공'목적의 포스팅이 가장 많았으며, PR유형의 경우 한국은 '관계관리 PR', 미국은 '이미지 PR'의 포스팅이 많았다. 수용자 반응을 살펴보면 참여형과 비주얼형(동영상, 카드뉴스, 인포그래픽 등)의 포스팅에 수용자들의 반응이 높았으며, 관계관리 PR에 대한 수용자 반응이 더욱 높았다. 이러한 연구 결과가 향후 정부부처 정책을 소통 전략을 수립하는데 있어 도움이 되길 기대해 본다.

  • In Saudi Arabia, cancer of breast is ranked the most frequent neoplasm and second source of cancer death in the female population. Breast cancer (BC) fast diagnosis, prognosis and medication management necessitate, these days, immunohistochemistry (IHC) assessment of hormone receptors and HER2 expression profile. The present report defines the IHC profile of ER, PR and HER2 in Saudi female breast neoplasms of ductal and lobular types and associations ER, PR and HER2 expression patterns with various clinicopathological factors (age, type of tumor, size, laterality, histological grade, and involvement of axillaries lymph nodes). Ninety nine cases of breast tumors were recruited from the pathology department archive of King Abdulaziz University Hospital, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. ER, PR and HER2 expression was assessed using IHC staining. Ductal carcinomas with a variety of histological grades constituted 88 (88.8%) of total cases. Seventy four (77.8%), 59 (62.1%), and 35 (36.8%) of ductal carcinomas showed positive staining for ER, PR and HER2, in that order. Remaining breast cancer cases were four (4%) lobular carcinomas and two (2%) mixed form of ductal and lobular types, which were ER+, PR+, and HER2-. Breast cancer expression pattern of ER, PR and HER2 in Saudi female is different from that of Tunisian and Jordanian female populations and closer to the expression pattern of Egyptian, Lebanese, Iraqi and western country females. Furthermore, the present study found two IHC patterns of breast cancer ER+/PR-/HER2+ (5%) and ER+/PR-/HER2- (11.1%), which had not been reported in other Arabic studies. Thus the rates of IHC expression patterns in breast cancer show some variation among Arabic female populations.
