Here we report the molecular cloning of a LIM protein cDNA of the CRP (cysteine-rich protein) family from the mulberry longicorn beetle, Apriona, geramri. The A. germari LIM protein cDNA contains an open reading frame of 276 bp encoding 92 amino acid residues with a calculated molecular weight of approximately 10 kDa. The A. germari LIM protein contains the cysteine-rich consensus sequence of LIM domain and the glycine-rich consensus sequence observed in cysteine-rich protein family 1 (CRP1). The potential nuclear targeting signal is retained. The deduced amino acid sequence of the A. germari LIM protein cDNA showed 81 % identity to both Bombyx mori muscle LIM protein (Mlp) and Drosophila melanogaster Mlp60A and 77% to Epiblema scudderiana Mlp. Northern blot analysis showed that A. germari LIM protein is highly expressed in epidermis and muscle, and less strongly in midgut, but not in the fat body.

A LIM protein gene homologue of the CRP (cysteine­rich protein) family in the whiter-spotted flower chafer, Protaetia brevitarsis, was cloned. The P. brevitarsis LIM protein cDNA encodes a 92 amino acid polypep­tide with a predicted molecular mass of 10,030 Da and a pI of 8.57. The P. brevitarsis LIM protein contains the cysteine-rich consensus sequence of LIM domain and the glycine-rich consensus sequence observed in the cysteine-rich protein family 1 (CRPl). The potential nuclear targeting signal is retained. The deduced amino acid sequence of the P. brevitarsis LIM protein cDNA showed 92$\%$ identity to another beetle, Apriona germari LIM protein. Northern blot analysis showed that P. brevitarsis LIM protein is highly expressed in epidermis and midgut, but not in the fat body.

단백질의 세포내 위치와 단백질의 기능은 연관성이 크므로, 단백질의 세포내 위치 예측을 통해서 그 기능에 대한 정보를 얻을 수 있다. 예측 정확도를 높이기 위해서 아미노산 서열 정보이외의 외부 정보들을 효과적으로 이용하려는 연구가 활발하다. 본 논문에서는 아미노산 서열 유사성, 단백질 프로파일, 유전자 온톨로지, 모티프, 문헌 정보에 내재된 세포내 위치 예측 능력을 비교한다. 단백질간의 서열 유사성이 80% 이하인 PLOC 자료를 사용한 실험에서는 서열 유사성과 유전자 온톨로지를 이용하는 방법이 효과적이며, 94.8%의 예측정확도를 얻었다. 단백질 서열간의 유사성이 30% 이하로서 단백질간의 서열 유사성이 작은 BaCelLo IDS 자료는 유전자 온톨로지를 사용하는 것이 효과적이었고, 동물은 93.2%, 곰팡이는 86.6%의 예측정확도로 크게 향상된 성능을 얻었다.

The complete nucleotide sequence of pKH4, a small multidrug resistance (smr) plasmid isolated from multidrug resistant Staphylococcus aureus SA5, was determined. Sequence analysis has revealed that pKH4 has two open reading frames for Rep and Smr proteins. The comparison of the amino acid sequence of Smr protein of pKH4 with those of other Smr proteins of various Staphylococcus showed that Smr protein of pKH4 is a new member of the SMR family.

Hyphantria cunea nuclear polyhedrosis virus p10유전자와 프로모터의 염기서열을 결정하였고, p10단백질의 아미노산 서열을 유도했다. pBP10재조합클론 (Cha et. al., 1991)에 삽입이 되어있는 p10유전자의 염기서열을 결정한 결과 p10유전자의 ORF는 285 bp였고, p10단백질은 95개의 아미노산으로 구성 되었으며, 분자량은 10.26 kDa이었다. 프로모터내에는 TATA box와 전사개시부위인 TAAG 염기가 발견되었다. poly (A) signal부위인 AATAAA염기서열은 3'-말단상류의 65염기부위에 위치했다. p10단백질의 N-말단은 소수성이었으며, C-말단은 고도로 친수성이었다. p10단백질에는 cysteine, histidine, tryptophane, tyrosine, glutamine, asparagine잔기가 없었다.

Among the proteins secreted from Lactobacillus acidophilus KCTC 3151, a 36 kDA and 24 kDa protein, whose amounts were relatively abundant, were purified and their N-terminal amino acid sequences determined. The N-terminal amino acid sequence of 36 kDa protein exhibited high homology with thymidine phosphorylase and glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase. The N-terminal amino acid sequence of the 24 kDa protein did not show significant homology with proteins in Protein Data Base nor Gene Bank. Nucleotide sequence of the gene encoding 36 kDa protein indicates that the protein possesses the domains for a-helical, phosphate binding and pyrimidine binding sites, which are also shown in thymidine phosphorylases. Also, the protein contains conserved domains of dehydrogenase II and III. However, the activity of thymidine phosphorylase or glyceraldehyde-3-puospnate dehydrogenase could not be detected in the purified fractions of the 36 kDa protein.

A mutational alteration in the signal sequence of ribose-binding protein (RBP) of Escherichia coli, rbsB103, completely blocks the export of the protein to the periplasm. Intragenic suppressors for this mutation have been selected on minimal medium with ribose as a sole carbon source. Six suppressor mutations were characterized in detail and were found to have single amino acid wubstitution in the mature portion of RBP, which resulted in the mobility shift of the proteins on SDS polyacrylamide gel. Amino acid changes of these suppressors were localized in several peptides which are packed to form the N terminal domain of typical bilobate conformation of RBP. The involvement of SecB, a molecular chaperone, was investigated in the suppression of signal sequence mutation. Translocation efficency was found to be increased by the presence of SecB for all suppressors. It is likely that the folding characteristics of RBP altered by the suppressor mutations affect the affinity of interaction between SecB and RBP.

Using differential hybridization, a cDNA clone was isolated fortuitously from Amaranthus viridis and sequenced. This nucleotide sequence exhibited 55.1% identity with vma6 which encodes the 36-kD subunit of the vacuolar proton transporting ATPase in Saccharmoyces cerevisiae. The predicted open reading frame encodes a protein of 221 amino acid sequence with a calculated molecular weight of 25,452 and reveals high levels of similarity with subunit D polypeptide of vacuolar H -ATP(e.g., 48.5, 52.1 and 49.3% identity to the vacuolar 36-kD chain of yeast, vacuolar 32-kD polypeptide IV of human and vacuolar 28-kD protein of bovine chromaffin granules, respectively). The hydropathy index computation revealed that this predicted protein is a peripheral protein. These results indicated that the predicted protein may play a sturctural role in the vaculor H -ATPase as does gamma subunit in V-type ATPase.

A rapid and sensitive assay for specific detection and identification of barley yellow mosaic virus(BaYMV) was set up using the reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR). A couple of primers was select to discriminate the viruses. PCR fragments of BaYMV(ca.0.9 kb) were obtained by using the method designed for BaYMV capsid protein. RT-PCR fragments were cloned with vector pT7 Blue and the resulting clones were sequenced. Capsid protein of BaYMV consisted of 297 amino acids and 891 nucleotides. The capsid protein sequence of BaYMV showed that 98% of nucleotides and 99% of amino acids homology.
