소의 주혈원충인 Reileria sp.의 small subunit ribosomal RMh (SSU rRNA) 유전자의 염 기서 열분 석을 위해 한국의 전북 장수로부터 분리하여 계대보관 중인 실험실 보관주 (KLS)와 김제 분리주 (KCB), 그리고 일본의 Shintoku 분리주 (JHS)를 실험에 사용하였다. 이들 분리주로 부터 원충을 회수 한 후 유전자를 추출하여 중합효소연쇄반응에 의 해 1.8 kb의 SSU rRNA 유전자를 증폭시 킬 수 있었으며, 증폭된 유전자를 이용하여 클론을 제작하고. 이들 클론으로 부터 플라스미드를 추출하여 유전자 염기서열분석을 실시하였다. 각 ReTheileria 분리주의 SSU rRNA유전자의 염기서열분석은 forma터와 reverse양쪽 다중복하여 실시하였으며 연속적인 primer를 이용하였다. 그 결과 한국의 소로부터 분리 한 Theue4n sp. (KLS. KCB)의 SSU rRNA유전자 염 기서 열 (Type A로 명명하였슴)은 일본 분리주와 동 일하였으며, 이 Type A를 GenBank로부터 유전자 검색을 해본 결과 Kenya의 Marula 분리주인 Reixerin buffeli의 SSU rRNA유전자 염기서열과 일치 하였다.

The objective of this study was to detect three non-halal meat products consisted of dog, pork, and rat species in meatball using novel multiplex-PCR with 12S rRNA gene as target sites. A total of 33 self-made meatballs were used, and they were grouped into eleven types of meatball based on meat species origin contained in the meatballs. Each type consisted of three meatballs. Extraction of genomic DNA from the meatballs was used as a DNA template for simplex-, duplex-, and multiplex-PCR processes. The result of simplex-PCR, duplex-PCR, and multiplex-PCR showed that the 12S rRNA primer gene successfully amplified DNA for each species bovine, dog, pig, and rat, which are respectively indicated by 155, 244, 357, and 491 bp of DNA bands. In addition, multiplex-PCR with 12S rRNA gene primers can be uniquely and accurately used for detection bovine, dog, pig, and rat species on beef meatball in one reaction.

Human caliciviruses (HuCVs) cause sporadic cases and outbreaks of acute gastroenteritis (AGE). Three major genogroups of HuCVs have been described including the Norwalk virus (NV)-, the Snow Mountain virus (SMA)-, and the Sapporo-genogroups. This study describes the detection and genetic variation of HuCVs from hospitalized infants with AGE in Korea by RT-PCR and sequencing. The cDNA fragments of 206 to 470bp corresponding to the region of 3 primer pairs (36/35, 35/51 or 3/51) in the polymerase region of NV were generated. Of 185 stools screened, 8% were positive by RT-PCR and their sequences showed that all strains contained the GLPSG and YGDD motifs which are conserved for HuCVs. Amino acid (aa) sequence analysis showed that these strains can be divided into 3 major genogroups. High conservation was observed in that one strain shares 100% of aa sequence with Southampton virus, another shares 99% with the Sapporo virus, and six strains share 90 to 95% with Snow Mountain virus. However, significant sequence variation was also found in other strains. This study indicates that all major genogroups of HuCVs are circulating in Korea.

포유류 배아발생 중 DNA 메틸화는 세포분화와 유전자발현에서 중요한 역할을 하는 것으로 알려져 있다. 그러나, 생쥐 착상전 초기배아 발생 중 메틸화효소에 의해 유지되는 DNA 메틸화의 중요성과 자세한 기작은 잘 이해되고 있지 않다. 이 연구에서 DNA 메틸화의 역할에 관하여 알아보기 위하여, 성숙난자와 착상전 초기배아에서 DNA 메틸전이효소의 발현양상을 조사하였다. 이를 위해, DNA 메틸전이효소를 암호화하고 있는 cDNA에서 primer를 고안하였다. Primer의 정확도와 PCR조건의 적합화를 통하여, DNA MTase 전사물이 성숙난자와 착상전 초기배아에서 검출되었다. DNA MTase의 mRNA량은 성숙난자에서 가장 높으며, 전핵시기까지 비슷한 정도로 유지되었다. 이후 8-세포기까지 지속적으로 감소하다 상실기 배아에서 다시 검출되어 포배기까지 증가하는 양상을 보였다. 그리고, RNA polymerase II 억제제를 전핵시기 배아에 처리하여, 난자와 전핵시기 배아에 다량 존재하는 전사물이 모계유래인 것을 확인하였다. 결국, 난자와 전핵시기 배아에 상대적으로 다량 존재하는 DNA 메틸전이효소의 전사물은 아마도 착상전 초기배아에서 DHA 메틸화의 유지에 필요하며, 착상전 초기배아 발생에 있어서 유전자발현과 세포분화에 영향을 줄 것임을 시사하고 있다.

This study was undertaken to develop PCR primers for the identification and detection of Streptococcus anginosus using species-specific forward and reverse primers. These primers targeted the variable regions of the 16S ribosomal RNA coding gene(rDNA). The primer specificity was tested against 12 S. anginosus strains and 6 different species(10 strains) of oral bacteria. The primer sensitivity was determined by testing serial dilutions of the purified genomic DNA of S. anginosus ATCC $33397^T$. The data showed that species-specific amplicons were obtained from all the S. anginosus strains tested, but not in the six other species. The PCR could detect as little as 0.4pg of the chromosomal DNA from S. anginosus. This suggests that the PCR primers are highly sensitive and applicable to the detection and identification of S. anginosus.

Fusarium graminearum causes a serious scab disease of small grains in Korea. The nucleotide sequence of the genomic RNA of a double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) virus, Fusarium graminearum virus-DK21 (FgV-DK21), from F. graminearum strain DK21, which is associated with hypovirulence in F. graminearum, was determined and compared to the genome sequences of other mycoviruses, including Cryponectria hypoviruses. The FgV-DK21 dsRNA consists of 6,624 nucleotides, excluding the 3'-terminal poly(A) tail. The viral genome has 53- and 46-nucleotide 5' and 3' untranslated regions (UTRs), respectively, and five putative open reading frames. A phylogenetic analysis of the deduced amino acid sequence of ORF1, which encodes a putative RNA-dependent RNA polymerase, and those of other mycoviruses revealed that this organism forms a distinct virus clade with other hypoviruses, and is more distantly related to other mycoviruses (3.8 to 24.0% identity). However, pairwise sequence comparisons of the nucleotide and deduced amino acid sequences of ORFs 2 through 5 revealed no close relationships to other protein sequences currently available in GenBank. Analyses of RNA accumulation by Northern blot and primer extension indicated that these putative gene products are expressed from at least two different subgenomic RNAs (sgRNAs), in contrast to the cases in other hypoviruses. This study suggests the existence of a new, as yet unassigned, genus of mycoviruses that exhibits a potex-like genome organization and sgRNA accumulation.

DNA sequence-based typing is considered a robust tool for the discrimination of dinoflagellate species because of the availability of extensive rDNA sequences. Here, we present a rapid, cost-effective DNA-sequencing technique for various PCR products. This sequencing strategy relies on 'nested' or 'tailed' primer labeled with near-infrared dye, and uses a minimal volume of unpurified PCR product (ca. $5{\mu}L$) as the DNA template for sequencing reactions. Reliable and accurate base identification was obtained for several hundred PCR fragments of rRNA genes. This quick, inexpensive technique is widely applicable to sequence-based typing in clinical applications, as well as to large-scale DNA sequencing of the same genomic regions from related species for studies of molecular evolution.

The purpose of this study was to develop species-specific real-time quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR) primers for use in the detection of Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans. These primers were designed based on the nucleotide sequences of the RNA polymerase ${\beta}$-subunit gene (rpoB). We assessed the specificity of the primers against nine strains of A. actinomycetemcomitans, eight strains (three species) of the Haemophilus genus, and 40 strains of 40 other oral bacterial species. Primer sensitivity was determined by testing serial dilutions of the purified genomic DNAs of A. actinomycetemcomitans ATCC $33384^T$. Our data reveal that we had obtained species-specific amplicons for all of the tested A. actinomycetemcomitans strains, and that none of these amplicons occurred in any of the other species. Our PCR protocol proved able to detect as little as 2 fg of A. actinomycetemcomitans chromosomal DNA. Our findings suggest that these qRT-PCR primers are suitable for application in epidemiological studies.
