Mannitol hypertonic regeneration media를 사용하는 PEG-induced protoplast transformation system을 이용해서 pUB110과 pE194의 recombinant plasmid로 B. subtilis BR151을 transformation 시킴으로써 두 plasmid에서 유래되는 각각의 Neo$^{R}$와 Em$^{R}$을 동일한 recipient cell 내에서 동시에 발현시킬 수 있었다. Neomycin과 erythromycin을 함께 함유하는 mannitol regeneration media상에서 recombinant plasmid의 transformation frequency는 6.5 $\times$ $10^{-5}$이었다. 한편 transformant cell 내에서 recombinant plasmid의 replication이 agarose gel electrophoresis로 확인되었다.

In order to increase the production of tryptophan by maximizing expression of recombinant trp plasmid, Klebsiella pneumoniae KC 105(pheA tyrA trpE trpR tyrR) was genetically modified. KC 107, inosine monophospate(IMP) auxotroph from KC 105 and KC 108, histidine(His) auxotroph from KC 107 were also derived respectively to increase phosphoribosylpyrophosphate(PRPP) production which is required for tryptophan biosynthesis. From KC 107 phosphoribosylpyrophosphate consumption which is required for tryptophan biosynthesis. From KC 107 and KC 108, KC 109 and KC 110, both arginine auxotrophs were derived respectively. To investigate the expression of recombinant trp plasmid in the selected K. pneumoniae mutants, the auxotrophic mutants were transformed with recombinant trp plasmids pSC 101-$trpE^{FBR}$, pSC 101-trpL(.DELTA.att) $trpE^{FBR}$ (pSC 101-trp-AF). Amount of tryptophan produced and activities of tryptophan synthase of $trpR^{-}$ mutant (KC 100) and $tyrR^{-}$ mutnat(KC 105) containing recombinant plasmid pSC 101-trp operon were increased by 30-40% as compared with KC 99(pheA tyrA trpE) containing recombinant plasmid pSC 101-trp operon. Activities of tryptophan synthase and production of tryptophan of KC 108 ($His^{-}$) and KC 109($Arg^{-}$) containing recombinant plasmid pSC 101-trp operon were increase by two-fold as compared with KC 107 containing pSC 101-trp operon.

Continuous culture was carried out with a recombinant Escherichia coli W3110/pCR185, which encodes trp-operon enzymes when the temperature is shifted from $37^{circ}C\;t;42^{\circ}C$. Under derepressed condition of $42^{\circ}C$. plasmlid stability and gene expression were analysed as function of the dilution rate. The stability of plasmid increased with the dilution rate, but maximal levels of gene expression (tryptophan concentration) and plasmid DNA content were obtained at the lowest dilution rate, $0.075\;hr^{-1}$. The plasmid instability, observed at low dilution rates, could be explained by the unbalanced biosynthetic state of the recombinant cell harboring a high copy number of plasmid.

Bifidobacterium is recognized as one of the most beneficial microorganisms in our gut. Many researches on bifidobacteria have been done to understand their roles in the gut. The objective of the present study was to develop a bioluminescent labelling plasmid vector for bifidobacteria to facilitate their visualization in vitro, in situ, and in vivo. A plasmid replicon (2.0 kb) of plasmid pFI2576 previously identified from B. longum FI10564 was amplified by PCR and cloned into pUC19 plasmid vector (2.68 kb). The cloned replicon was subcloned into pTG262 ($luc^+$) recombinant plasmid vector (7.4 kb) where a luciferase gene ($luc^+$) from pLuc2 (8.5 kb), an Escherichia coli and lactobacilli shuttle vector, was inserted into pTG262 plasmid vector. The final recombinant DNA, pTG262::pFI2576 rep ($luc^+$), was transferred into a B. catenulatum strain. This recombinant strain showed 3,024 relative luminescence units at $OD_{600}$ value of 0.352. Thus, this recombinant plasmid construct can be broadly used for labelling bifidobacteria.

A model equation to describe the plasmid instability in recombinant Escherichia coli fermentation is proposed. The equation allows one to estimate easily the two model parameters; (1) the difference in the specific growth rates between plasmid-free cells and plasmid-harboring cells ($\delta$), and (2) the probability of plasmid loss by plasmid-harboring cells ($\rho$). The estimated values of $\delta and \rho$ were in the range of 0.02-0.07 and $10^{-3}-10^{-5}$, respectively, and were strongly dependent on the dilution rate. As another parameter, the ratio of specific growth rates of plasmid-free cells and plasmid-harboring cells ($\alha$) was calculated and the result showed the highest value of 1.28 at the lowest dilution rate of 0.075 $hr^{-l}$, examined in this work. By the sensitivity analyses on the estimates of $\delta and \rho$, it was found that the growth rate difference ($\delta$) affected the plasmid instability more seriously than the probability of plasmid loss ($\rho$). Furthermore, the profound instability of plasmid at low dilution rate could be explained by the high values of $\alpha and \rho$.

전분질의 에탄을 직접발효에 유용한 Saccharomyces diastaticus의 glucoamylase 생산성 향상을 위하여 glucoamylase 유전자 STA1을 함유한 재조합 plasmid pYES 18을 갖는 S. diastaticus의 형질전환 균주에서 성장속도가 plasmid의 안정성에 미치는 영향과 plasmid 안정성에 따른 glucoamylase 생산성을 조사하였다. 최소 선택배지에서는 plasmid가 일정한 수준에서 안정하게 유지되었으나, 균체의 증식과 glucoamylase 생산성은 매우 미약하였다. Starch가 포함된 완전배지에서는 glucose를 첨가해 줌으로써 생육속도를 촉진시킬 수 있었으며 생육속도의 촉진에 의해 plasmid 안정성이 증가되었고 이에 따라 glucoamylase 생산성이 향상됨을 알았다.

The stability of the genetically engineered microorganisms and their recombinant plasmids released in natural environments has been regarded as one of the molecular ecological topics. In this study, the recombinant plasmids pCU103 in which the pcbCD genes involved in biodegradation of biphenyl and 4-chlorobiphenyl were cloned in pBluescript SK(+) vector, were examined for their structural and functional stability in different waters at 15 $^{\circ}C$ by the methods of electrophoresis, Southern hybridization, quantification with fluorescent dye, and transformation. The recombinant plamids maintained their stabilities for about 30 days in sterilized distilled water (SDW), 15 days in autoclaved creek water (AW), 25 days in filtered and autoclaved non-sterile creek water (FAW), 4 days in Luria-Bertani (LB) broth, and less than one day in filtered non-sterile creek water (FW). The covalently closed circular (CCC) form of the plasmid was decreased and open circular (OC) form was increased as a function of incubation time, and then linear (L) form was produced to be ultimately degraded out. The degradation rates of the plasmid were proportionally correlated to trophic level of the water, and the biological factor such as DNases was found to be one of the most critical factors affecting structural and functional stability of the plasmid in non-sterile natural water.

The effect of stb locus of E. COLI IncFII plasmid NR1 on the stability of chimeric plasmids was investigated. First, we have isolated the stability locus (stb) from E. coli NR1 plasmid and then inserted into the three different vectors, pUC8, YRp17 and YEp24. By examining their stability in E. coli and yeast, we showed that the recombinant plasmids containing stb locus were resonably stable. Also, by comparing the amounts of the rDNA fragments per haploid genome with those of the plasmid fragments, we showed they copy number of recombinant plasmids was not increased. Consequently, the stb locus of E. coli IncFII plasmid NR1 stabilized the chimeric plasmids but did not affect the replication or copy number of plasmids.

한국 재래식 된장.간장 발효균 Bacillus sp. SSA3 균주의 expression vector를 개발하기 위해 Bacillus sp. SSA3의 chromosomal DNA로부터 유전자의 promoter 부위를 cloning 하였다. Recombinant plasmid를 제작하기 위하여 Bacillus sp. SSA3의 chromosomal DNA을 HindIII로 절단한 단편을 pGR71 plasmid의 CAT gene과 pUC18 plasmid의 $\beta$-galactosidase gene의 전방에 삽입시킨 후, E.coli JM109에 형질전환하였다.E. coli JM109의 chloramphenicol 내성 clones으로부터 6 recombinant plasmid를 선별하였다. 이들 선별된 plasmid는 Bacillus sp. SSA3의 expression vector로 사용시 각 재조합 plasmid 중에 삽입된 promoter의 염에 대한 영향의 정도를확인하기 위해 10% NaCl이 첨가된 LB medium상에서 배양하였을 때, 이들 중 Bacillus sp. SSA3의 4 clones은 융합 CAT gene의 발현이 강하게 감소되었으나 2 clones은 약하게 저해되었다.
