The analysis of the full length genome of Korean isolates of Pepper mottle virus (PepMoV) in previous study showed molecular variations and are found to be related to symptom variation and pathogenicity (Kim et al., 2009, Virus Res. 144:83-88). To fully understand the molecular variation of PepMoV in Korea, we further assessed the role of RNA recombination to biological variation and evolution of PepMoV. Full-length genome of a total of 17 Korean-PepMoV and 2 American (CA and FL) isolates were examined for possible detection of genetic recombination using different recombination detections programs and detected 5 and 8 tentative recombination events using RDP3 and Splits Tree4 programs, respectively. Interestingly, tentative recombinants detected such as isolates 57, 134 and 217 were previously identified as severe isolates and 205135 and 205136 as differentiating isolates (Kim et al., 2009, Virus Res. 144:83-88). In addition, recombination was frequently detected in the Vb isolate, the first PepMoV isolate reported in Korea, suggesting significant involvement in the evolution of PepMoV in Korea. These initial results of our recombination analyses among PepMoV isolates in Korea may serve as clues to further investigate the biological variations and evolution of PepMoV brought about by recombination.

The mesh mask screen, which is generally used for screen printing metallization of silicon solar cell, requires high squeegee pressure and low printing speed. These requirements are acting as a limiting factor in production yield in photovoltaic industries. In order to improve the productivity, a metal mask, which has high durability and high printing speed, has been researched. In this paper, the characteristics of each solar cell, in which electrodes were formed by using a metal mask and a mesh mask, were analyzed through recombination current density. In particular, the metal-induced recombination current density (Jom) representing the recombination of the emitter-metal interface was calculated using the shading method, and the resulting efficiency and open-circuit voltage were analyzed through the diode equation. As a result of analyzing the proportion of the metal-induced recombination current density to the total emitter recombination current density, it was analyzed that the reduction of the metal-induced recombination current density through the metal mask is an important factor in reducing the total recombination current density of the solar cell.

PCR-mediated recombination describes the process of in vitro chimera formation from related template sequences present in a single PCR amplification. The high levels of genetic redundancy in eukaryotic genomes should make recombination artifacts occur readily. However, few evolutionary biologists adequately consider this phenomenon when studying gene lineages. The cytosolic glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase gene (GapC), which encodes a NADP-dependent nonphosphorylating glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase in the cytosol, is a classical lowcopy nuclear gene marker and is commonly used in molecular evolutionary studies. Here, we report on the occurrence of PCR-mediated recombination in the GapC gene family of Hibiscus tiliaceus. The study suggests that recombinant areas appear to be correlated with DNA template secondary structures. Our observations highlight that recombination artifacts should be considered when studying specific and allelic phylogenies. The authors suggest that nested PCR be used to suppress PCRmediated recombination.

During meiosis, programmed double-strand breaks (DSBs) are repaired via recombination pathways that are required for faithful chromosomal segregation and genetic diversity. In meiotic progression, the non-homologous end joining (NHEJ) pathway is suppressed and instead meiotic recombination initiated by nucleolytic resection of DSB ends is the major pathway employed. This requires diverse recombinase proteins and regulatory factors involved in the formation of crossovers (COs) and non-crossovers (NCOs). In mitosis, spontaneous DSBs occurring at the G1 phase are predominantly repaired via NHEJ, mediating the joining of DNA ends. The Ku complex binds to these DSB ends, inhibiting additional DSB resection and mediating end joining with Dnl4, Lif1, and Nej1, which join the Ku complex and DSB ends. Here, we report the role of the Ku complex in DSB repair using a physical analysis of recombination in Saccharomyces cerevisiae during meiosis. We found that the Ku complex is not essential for meiotic progression, DSB formation, joint molecule formation, or CO/NCO formation during normal meiosis. Surprisingly, in the absence of the Ku complex and functional Mre11-Rad50-Xrs2 (MRX) complex, a large portion of meiotic DSBs was repaired via the recombination pathway to form COs and NCOs. Our data suggested that Ku complex prevents meiotic recombination in the elimination of MRX activity.

Integrase (Int) carries out the cutting and resealing of attachment (att) site DNA via a covalent Int-DNA intermediate. A family of synthetic substrate DNAs was designed to accumulate Int-DNA intermediate. Int-DNA intermediates accumulated by half substrate was analyzed by SDS- KCI precipitation and restriction digestion. The results showed that Int-half DNA intermediate was circular and contained covalently bound Int molecule. Int-DNA intermediates were also trapped with three other kinds of synthetic substrates.

텔로미어를 안정적으로 유지하는 것은 세포의 증식과 생존에 필수적이다. 비록 텔로미어 유지에는 telomerase가 가장 중요한 수단이지만 재조합도 텔로미어 유지를 위한 또 다른 중요한 과정으로 작용한다. 본 연구에서는 효모의 텔로미어 내부에 존재하는 $TG_{1-3}$ 반복서열을 이용하여 텔로미어 재조합을 관찰할 수 있는 유전학적 방법을 개발하였다. 관찰된 재조합 빈도는 내부 $TG_{1-3}$ 반복서열의 존재 여부에 영향을 받았으며, 생성된 $FOA^rCan^r$ 콜로니로부터 추출한 유전체 DNA를 사용하여 URA3와 CAN1 marker 근처 부위를 PCR 증폭한 결과, 각 콜로니들은 marker를 포함한 염색체 말단 부위가 결손 된 것으로 나타났다. 뿐만 아니라, 더 긴 내부 $TG_{1-3}$ 반복서열을 사용하였을 때 재조합 빈도는 더 증가하였다. 이러한 결과는 $FOA^rCan^r$ 콜로니 형성이 내부와 말단의 $TG_{1-3}$ 반복서열 사이의 재조합에 기인한다는 것을 의미한다.

The lambda integrase (lnt) is believed to bind to several arm and core sites of attP DNA in order to facilitate intasome formation. We have done systematic mutagenic analysis on all 5 arm sites and found that P1 is absolutely required for integration while P2 is not. We also found that all 3 P' arm sites(P'1, P'2, and P'3) are required for efficient integrative recombination. P'1, which is an important binding site for excision, also seems to be crucial for integration when preincubation of attP DNA with Int and IHF is performed before recombination. Preincubation assay revealed that preincubation with Int and IHF improved the efficiency of recombination of wild type attP DNA and demolished recombinations of P'1 mutant attP DNAs.

According to increasing the doping concentration in p-n junction, a tunneling current through trap as well as SRH(Shockley-Read-Hall) generation-recombination current in depletion region occurs. It is the tunneling current that is a dominant current at the forward bias. In this paper, the new tunneling-recombination equation is derived. The thermal generation-recombination current and tunneling current though trap can be easily calculated at the same time because this equation has the same form as the SRH generation-recombination equation. For the validity of this equation, 2 kind of samples are simulated. The one is $n^{+}$-p junction device fabricated with MCT(Mercury Cadmium Telluride, mole fraction=0.29), the other Si n$^{+}-p^{+}$ junction. From the results for MCT $n^{+}$-p junction device and comparing the simulated and expermental I-V characteristics for Si n$^{+}-p^{+}$ junction, it is shown that this equation is a good description for tunneling through trap and thermal generation-recombination current calculation.

The conventional feature recombination technique is very effective in the band-limited noise condition, but in broad-band noise condition, the conventional feature recombination technique does not produce notable performance improvement compared with the full-band system. To cope with this drawback, we introduce a new technique of sub-band likelihood computation in the feature recombination, and propose a new feature recombination method by using this sub-band likelihood computation. Furthermore, the reliable sub-band selection based on the signal-to-noise ratio is used to improve the performance of this proposed feature recombination. Experimental results shows that the average error reduction rate in various noise condition is more than 27% compared with the conventional full-band speaker identification system.
