  • Isozyme and protein electrophoresis data from mycelial extracts of 27 isolates of Trichoderma harzianum, 10 isolates of T. aureoviride, and 10 isolates of T. longibrachiatum from Southern Peninsular Malaysia were investigated. The eight enzyme and a single protein pattern systems were analyzed. Three isozyme and total protein patterns were shown to be useful for the detection of three Trichoderma species. The isozyme and protein data were analyzed using the Nei and Li Dice similarity coefficient for pairwise comparison between individual isolates, species isolate group, and for generating a distance matrix. The UPGMA cluster analysis showed a higher degree of relationship between T. harzianum and T. aureoviride than to T. longibrachiatum. These results suggested that the T. harzianum isolates had high levels of genetic variation compared with the other isolates of Trichoderma species.

  • Elecrophoreticl analysis of a 36 kDa protein was runned by SDS-PAGE, isoelectric focusing (IEF) and two dimensional electrophoresis pattern. Major 36 kDa and 25, 46, 48, 66 kDa protein were detected by Coomassie blue stain on SDS-PAGE. Major 36kDa protein was eluted for production of antiserum for serological analysis, IEF and two dimensional electrophoresis. Isoelectric point of 36kDa was aout pH 8.5. Two dimensional electrophoresis of eluted 36kDa showed one point on the gel. Anti-36 kDa serum made by newzilland rabbit for serological test. In ELISA, final titer of antibody was 100×{TEX}$2^5}${/TEX} : 1. Neutralize ability of serum was examined by slide agglutination test and colonization test in rat. Anti-36 kDa serum agglutinated whole cell of V. vulnificus were inhibited colonization on intestine in rat. Accordingly In this paper contain some electrophoretical analysis and serological test of a 36 kDa OMP of V. vulnificus.

  • We demonstrate that wide-angle X-ray scattering pattern from photoactive yellow protein (PYP) in solution using a high flux third generation synchrotron X-ray source reflects not only the overall structure, but also fine structures of the protein. X-ray scattering data from PYP in solution have been collected in q ranges from 0.02 ${\AA}^{-1}$ to 2.8 ${\AA}^{-1}$. These data are sensitive to the protein structure and consistent with the calculation based on known crystallographic atomic coordinates. Theoretical scattering patterns were also calculated for the intermediates during the photocycle of PYP to estimate the feasibility of time-resolved wide-angle X-ray scattering experiments on such proteins. These results demonstrate the possibility of using the wide-angle solution X-ray scattering as a quantitative monitor of photo-induced structural changes in PYP.

  • 단백질 사이의 상호작용 네트워크(PPI network: Protein-Protein Interaction network)를 이용하여 단백질 기능을 예측 하는 것은 단백질 기능 예측 기법들 중에서 중요한 작용을 한다. 하지만 PPI를 이용한 단백질 기능 예측은 기능의 복잡도와 다양성으로 인해 제한적인 결과를 나타내 왔다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 기존의 연구들 보다 높은 정확도로 단백질 기능을 예측하기 위해 기능 예측을 하려는 단백질과 상호작용 하는 단백질들에 그래프 마이닝 기법을 적용하여 빈발 2-노드 상호작용 패턴을 찾고, 그 패턴을 이용하여 단백질 기능을 예측하는 접근법을 제안하였다. 실험데이터로 DIP(Database of Interacting Proteins)에서 제공하는 단백질 상호작용 데이터를 사용하였으며, 다른 기존의 단백질 기능 예측 기법들보다 높은 정확도를 보여주었다.

  • A comparative growth trial involving 12 Beetal and 12 Barbari kids was conducted for 120 days. The kids were allowed to suckle their dams and also offered ad libitum green fodder and concentrate at 2% of their liveweight. Beetal kids attained higher (P<.01) weight, consumed more (P<.01) milk, green fodder and concentrate, and utilized protein efficiently as compared to Barbari kids. However, variation due to sex was non-significant. Blood glucose, protein and cholesterol levels increased (P<.01) with increasing age irrespective of sex and breed.

  • Gelatin nanoparticles derived from bovine or porcine have been developed as various types of drug delivery system, and they need to be cross-linked to maintain their physicochemical properties in aqueous environments. Although gelatin is a widely used material in pharmaceutical industries, the safety issue of animal-origin gelatins, such as transmissible mad cow disease and anaphylaxis, remains to be solved. The purpose of this study was to prepare type A gelatin (GA) nanoparticles by modified, two-step, desolvation method and compare the toxicity of the resulting GA nanoparticles with recombinant human gelatin (rHG) nanoparticles. The GA nanoparticles were characterized, and drug loading and release pattern were measured. FITC-BSA, a model protein, was efficiently loaded in the nanoparticles and then released in a biphasic and sustained release pattern without an initial burst. In particular, the cell viability of the GA nanoparticles was less than that of the rHG nanoparticles. This finding suggests that rHG nanoparticles should be considered as an alternative to animal-origin gelatin nanoparticles in order to minimize the safety problems.

  • These researches were carried out to investigate the morphology of different species of Trichoderma and the possibilities of differentiation of the species of Trichoderma by electrophoretic methods. Variations between the isolates of a species of Trichoderma indicate the genetical differences, also isozyme and protein patterns will be useful to investigate genetical variations betweens the isolates. It might be possible that distinct bands of isozymes of esterase, phosphotase, catalase, catalase differentiate species of Trichoderma.

  • The present study was performed to evaluate the relationship between the neurotoxicity of acrylamide and the differential gene expression pattern in mice. Both locomotor test and rota-rod test showed that the group treated with higher than 30 mg/kg/day of acrylamide caused impaired motor activity in mice. Based on cDNA microarray analysis of mouse brain, myelin basic protein gene, kinesin family member 5B gene, and fibroblast growth factor (FGF) 1 and its receptor genes were down-regulated by acrylamide. The genes are known to be essential for neurofilament synthesis, axonal transport, and neuroprotection, respectively. Interestingly, both FGF 1 and its receptor genes were down-regulated. Genes involved in nucleic acid binding such as AU RNA binding protein/enoyl-coA hydratase, translation initiation factor (TIF) 2 alpha kinase 4, activating transcription factor 2, and U2AF 1 related sequence 1 genes were down-regulated. More interesting finding was that genes of both catalytic and regulatory subunit of protein phosphatases which are important for signal transduction pathways were down-regulated. Here, we propose that acrylamide induces neurotoxicity by regulation of genes associated with neurofilament synthesis, axonal transport, neuro-protection, and signal transduction pathways.

  • This experiment has been done to evaluate the relationship between the follicular atresia and the protein patterns on electrophoreais of the follicular fluids in porcine ovary. The protein concentration of the follicular fluids was lower than that of serum, and gradually decreased as the follicle siae became larger. The number of protein bands of follicular fluid on electrophoresis was less than that of serum, and gradually increased as follicle size became larger. Three specific bands were detected on disc PAGE and one band(M W. 75,000) on SDS PAGE in the follicular fluids, while not in serum. One band (A) at ${\beta}$-globulin region on disc PAGE became heavier, as follicles became atretic. Two bands less than(M. W. 20,000) were detected only in the large follicular fluid. Another band(M. W. 43,000) was not detected in necrotic group, whereas all other groups showed it. It could be concluded that the component and composition of the proteins follicular fluids changes according to the follicular size during atresia. Therefore detection of the changing pattern of proteins in the follicular fluid can be used as a basic criterion for the identification of follicular atretic stage.
