본 연구에서는 시판되고 있는 카제인 나트륨, 유청 단백질 분리물, 탈지분유 및 전지분유에 TGase를 첨가하여 단백질 이동특성 및 pepsin에 의한 가수분해 정도를 조사하였다. 우유 단백질과 분말 제품들을 TGase로 2시간 동안 반응시킨 후 전기영동을 실시한 결과 모든 시료에서 고분자량의 중합체를 형성하였으며 가교결합 정도는 카제인 나트륨 >탈지분유 >전지분유 >유청 단백질 분리물 순으로 감소하는 양상을 보였다. 인체 내 소화효소인 pepsin에 의하여 가수분해된 카제인 나트륨은 10kDa 이하의 펩타이드로 분해됐고, 유청 단백질은 분해 전, 후 양상이 유사하였다. 유청 단백질 중 ${\beta}-Lg$는 pepsin에 의해 거의 분해되지 않고 저항성을 보였다. 탈지분유, 전지분유 역시 더 낮은 분자량의 펩타이드가 관찰되었는 바, in vitro 상에서의 TGase작용으로 인한 교차결합은 소화효소에 의한 가수분해가 용이함을 확인하였다. 이 결과는 TGase를 첨가하여 새로운 유제품을 개발, 이용하는데 인체내에서의 소화에 거의 문제가 없을 것임을 시사하는 것으로 보인다.

Coumarine이 부착된 인산결합 단백질 (PBP-MDCC)의 형광변화가 뉴클레오사이드 삼인산 가수분해과정에서 배출된 무기 인산의 양을 측정하기 위해 관찰되었다. PBP-MDCC 정제후, 형광 방출 스펙트럼은 형광세기가 PBP-MDCC의 몰비을로 약 $70\%$까지 직선형태로 증가하는 것을 보였다. 형광 신호와 인산 기준물질과의 상호관계 측정이 인산 농도-형광세기 표준곡선을 구하기 위하여 stopped-flow 기구에서 행하여졌다. dTTP 가수분해로 부터 나오는 에너지를 이용하여 이중나선 DNA를 풀어주는 단백질인 T7박테리오파지 나선효소를 dPTT라 반응 시켰을 때, 형광변화를 배출된 인산의 양으로 전환할 수 있었다. 인산 배출 결과는 단일가닥 Ml3 DNA가 T7나선 효소에 의한 dTTP가수분해반응을 여러배 증가시키는 것을 보인다. 뉴클레오타이드 삼인산 가수분해 반응에 있어서 종말점 분석 대신에, PBP-MDCC에 의한 연속적인 인산 배출 분석이 배출된 인산을 측정하는데 있어서 쉽고 편리한 방법임을 보였다.

In order to develop new protein carrier replacing poly(DL-lactic acid-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) microspheres, succinylated pullulan acetate (SPA) was investigated to fabricate a long term protein delivery carrier. SPA microspheres loaded with lysozyme (Lys) as a model protein drug were prepared by a water/oil/water (W/O/W) double emulsion method. An acidity test of SPA copolymers after hydrolysis was performed to estimate the change of protein stability during releasing proteins from the microspheres. There was no pH change of SPA copolymers, but pH of PLGA polymers after hydrolysis was significantly decreased to around pH 2, indicating that the long-term stability of proteins released from SPA microspheres can be guaranteed. Loading efficiency of proteins into SPA microspheres was three times higher than those into conventional PLGA microspheres, indication of inducing stronger charge interaction between proteins and succinyl groups in SPA microspheres. Although initial burst behaviors were monitored in Lys-loaded SPA microspheres due to relatively strong hydrophilic succinyl segments in SPA microspheres, initial burst issues would be circumvented if the ratio of charge density of succinyl moieties and hydrophobic acetate groups is harmonically controlled. Therefore, in this study, a new attempt of protein delivery system was made and functional SPA was successfully confirmed as a new protein carrier.

Escherichia coli transcription termination factor Rho catalyzes the unwinding of RNA/DNA duplex in reactions that are coupled to ATP binding and hydrolysis. We report here the kinetic mechanism of presteady state ATP binding and hydrolysis by the Rho-RNA complex. Presteady state chemical quenched-flow technique under multiple turnover condition was used to probe the kinetics of ATP binding and hydrolysis by the Rho-RNA complex. The quenched-flow presteady state kinetics of ATP hydrolysis studies show that three ATPs are bound to the Rho-RNA complex with a rate of $4.4\;{\times}\;10^5M^{-1}s^{-1}$, which are subsequently hydrolyzed at a rate of $88s^{-1}$ and released during the initiation process. Global fit of the presteady state ATP hydrolysis kinetic data suggests that a rapid-equilibrium binding of ATP to Rho-RNA complex occurs prior to the first turnover and the chemistry step is not reversible. The initial burst of three ATPs hydrolysis was proposed to be involved in the initialization step that accompanies proper complex formation of Rho-RNA. Based on these results a kinetic model for initiation process for Rho-RNA complex was proposed relating the mechanism of ATP binding and hydrolysis by Rho to the structural transitions of Rho-RNA complex to reach the steady state phase, which is implicated during translocation along the RNA.

Angiotensin Ⅰ converting enzyme(ACE) inhibitory activities of laver(Porphyra tenera) protein hydrolysates were investigated by enzymes used for hydrolysis, molecular fractions and drying methods. For the enzymatic hydrolysis, crude laver protein, separated by filtration of water extract of dried laver extracted with 20 times(w/v) water for 3 hours at boiling temperature, were hydrolyzed with three commercial protease, Pepsin, alcalase and maxazyme NNP at optimal conditions. The yield of hydrolysis and ACE inhibitory activities of which were high in order of pepsin, alcalase and maxazyme NNP. ACE inhibitory activities of laver hydrolysates by molecular levels were high in order of 3 kDa > 10 kDa > 3∼10 kDa, and the IC/sub 50/ ACE inhibitory activities by molecular lebels were 4 mg/mL(3 kDa), 5 mg/mL(total hydrolysate), and 20 mg/mL(10 kDa), respectively. The storage stability of dried laver hydrolysates at 20℃ were strongly affected by drying methods, hot air dried of which were much stabler than freeze-dried one.

This study was undertaken to investigate the effect of peptic and chymotryptic hydrolyses of 7S globulin, the major allergen of soybean protein, on its allergenicity, as measured by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), and to identify the allergenic hydrolyzed fragments of 7S globulin using SDS-PAGE. When 7S globulin was hydrolyzed by pepsin, the allergenicity was reduced by over 50%. However, the allergenicity of 7S globulin reduced by peptic hydrolysis was recovered in the sera from 5 out of 10 patients following sequential chymotryptic hydrolysis. Two fragments, with molecular weights 20-25 and 13-16 kDa, among the hydrolysate of 7S globulin by sequential pepsin and chymotrypsin showed reactivity with sera from 10 soybean-allergenic patients. As a result of the theoretical hydrolyses of ${\beta}$-conglycinin, which is a major protein of 7S globulin, it is suggested that the 20-25 kDa fragments were the fragments of the ${\alpha}$-subunit of ${\beta}$'-conglycinin and that the 10-16 kDa fragments were from the ${\alpha}$'-subunit.

Exogenous nucleic acids induce an innate immune response in mammalian host cells through activation of the retinoic acid-inducible gene I (RIG-I). We evaluated RIG-I protein for RNA binding and ATPase stimulation with RNA ligands to investigate the correlation with the extent of immune response through RIG-I activation in cells. RIG-I protein favored blunt-ended, double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) ligands over sticky-ended dsRNA. Moreover, the presence of the 5'-triphosphate (5'-ppp) moiety in dsRNA further enhanced binding affinity to RIG-I. Two structural motifs in RNA, blunt ends in dsRNA and 5'-ppp, stimulated the ATP hydrolysis activity of RIG-I. These structural motifs also strongly induced IFN expression as an innate immune response in cells. Therefore, we suggest that IFN induction through RIG-I activation is mainly determined by structural motifs in dsRNA that increase its affinity for RIG-I protein and stimulate ATPase activity in RIG-I.

Two endoglucanases with processive cellulase activities, produced from Fomitopsis palustris grown on 2% microcrystalline cellulose(Avicel), were purified to homogeneity by anion-exchange and gel filtration column chromatography systems. SDS-PAGE analysis indicated that the molecular masses of the purified enzymes were 47 kDa and 35 kDa, respectively. The amino acid sequence analysis of the 47-kDa protein(EG47) showed a sequence similarity with fungal glycoside hydrolase family 5 endoglucanase from the white-rot fungus Phanerochaete chrysosporium. N-terminal and internal amino acid sequences of the 35-kDa protein(EG35), however, had no homology with any other glycosylhydrolases, although the enzyme had high specific activity against carboxymethyl cellulose, which is a typical substrate for endoglucanases. The initial rate of Avicel hydrolysis by EG35 was relatively fast for 48 h, and the amount of soluble reducing sugar released after 96 h was $100{\mu}g/ml$. Although EG47 also hydrolyzed Avicel, the hydrolysis rate was lower than that of EG35. Thin layer chromatography analysis of the hydrolysis products released from Avicel indicated that the main product was cellobiose, suggesting that the brown-rot fungus possesses processive EGs capable of degrading crystalline cellulose.
