Background: Wolbachia are among the most prevalent endosymbiotic bacteria and induce reproductive anomalies in various invertebrate taxa. The bacterium has huge impacts on host reproductive biology, immunity, evolution, and molecular machinery. However, broad-scale surveys of Wolbachia infections at the order scale, including the order Coleoptera, are limited. In this study, we investigated the Wolbachia infection frequency in 201 Coleopteran insects collected in Korea. Results: A total of 26 species (12.8%) belonging to 11 families harbored Wolbachia. The phylogenetic trees of based on partial 16S rRNA gene sequences and partial Wolbachia surface protein (wsp) gene sequences were largely incongruent to that of their hosts. This result confirms that Wolbachia evolved independently from their hosts, Conclusion: Phylogenetic trees suggest that complex horizontal gene transfer and recombination events occurred within and between divergent Wolbachia subgroups.

단백질분해효소를 생산하지 않는 균주 B. subtilis MT-2의 염색체 DNA를 추출한 다음, B. subtilis AC819 균주에 상동성 유전자재조합을 이용하여 competent cell 형질전환을 시켰다. 얻어진 형질전환체를 B. subtilis HL-1이라고 명명하였으며, 그 표현형은 histidine 요구성, streptomycin 내성, tetracyclin 내성을 나타내면서 단백질 분해효소를 생산하지 않았다. 플라스미드 pUB110 을 이용한 B. subtilis HL-1의 protoplst 형질전환율은 B. subtilis MT-2의 형질전환율보다 높았다. 따라서 새로운 B. subtilis HL-1균주는 단백질분해효소의 형질전환과 내열성 protease 유전자클로닝에서 숙주로 사용하는데 유용하다.

A study was undertaken to examine the effect of curing agents on the stability, curing and segregation of R plasmid pSL100. And also the stability, transfer frequency, and recombination of its segregants obtained from curing agent treatment were studied. Ethidium bromide, acridine orange, and mitomycin-C were used as curing agent. The results obtained were as follows ; 1. The curing agent ethidium bromide, acridine orange, and mitomycin-C were not effective for curing the multiple antibiotic resistant determinant of pSL100 in Salmonella typhimurium and Escherichia coli. However, they induced plasmid segregation with high frequency in S.typhimuruim LT-2strains. TcApSmCm, TcSmCmKm, TcApCm, TcAp, TcKm, Tc segregants were obtained. 2. The resistant markers of the segregents were transferred to S.typhimurium LT-2 strains with high frequencies whereas they were transferred to E.coli K-12 only with low frequencies. 3. The transconjugants obtained from conjugation between two different S.typhimurium segregants were similar to the phenotype of the original R factor pSL100 and the resistant markers were transferred to the S.typhimurium LT-2 or E.coli strain with equal frequencies, indicating that they are recombinants. 4. The transconjugants obtained from conjugation between pSL100 segrgants and pKM101, or pBR322 possessed the resistant markers of the two parental plasmids and they were transferred to both S.typhimurium and E.coli K-12 strains with the same frequencies and maintained stably, suggesting that they are also recombinants. 5. The recombinant pSL100 could be also obtained in rec A-strains of E.coli, suggesting that the gene function of rec A is required for the recombination of pSL100 segregants in E.coli.

Based on single-mode rate equations, we present an improved equivalent-circuit model for distributed-feedback (DFB) lasers that accounts for the effects of parasitic parameters and nonradiative recombination. This equivalent-circuit model is composed of a parasitic circuit, an electrical circuit, an optical circuit, and a phase circuit, modeling the circuit equations transformed from the rate equations. The validity of the proposed circuit model is verified by comparing simulation results to measured results. The results show that the slope efficiency and threshold current of the model are 0.22 W/A and 13 mA respectively. It is also shown that increasing bias current results in the increase of the relaxation-oscillation frequency. Moreover, we show that the larger the bias current, the lower the frequency chirp, increasing the possibility of extending the transmission distance of an optical-fiber communication system. The results indicate that the proposed circuit model can accurately predict a DFB laser's static and dynamic characteristics.

The effects of DNA polymerase $\beta$ on the somatic chromosome mutations and mitotic recombinations were investigated using the transgenic Drosophila beating chimetic gene consisting of a promoter region of Drosophila actin 5C gene and rat DNA polymerase $\beta$. For detecting the somatic chromosome mutations and mitotic recombinations, the heterozygous (mwh/+) strains possessing or lacking transgene poi 13 were used. The spontaneous frequency of small mwh spots, due to deletion or nondisjunction etc., in the non-transgenic w strain and the transgenic p[pol $\beta$]-130 strain was 0.351 and 0.606, respectively. The spontaneous frequency (0.063) of large mwh spots, arises mostly from somatic recombination between the centromere and the locus mwh, in the transgenic p[pol $\beta$]-130 strain was about three times higher than that (0.021) of the non-transgenic w strain. The mutant clone frequencies of small and large mwh spots induced by N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine and ethyl methanesulfonate in the transformant p[pol $\beta$]-130 were higher than those in the host strain w. The present results suggest that rat DNA polymerase $\beta$ participate at least in the somatic chromosome mutations and mitotic recombination processes.

Long turn-off time limits high frequency operation of Bipolar Junction Transistors (BJTs). Turn-off time decreases with increases in the recombination rate of minority carriers at switching transients. Fast neutron irradiation on a Si BJT incurs lattice damages owing to the displacement of silicon atoms. The lattice damages increase the recombination rate of injected holes with electrons, and decrease the hole lifetime in the base region of pnp Si BJT. Fast neutrons generated from a beryllium target with 30 MeV protons by an MC-50 cyclotron were irradiated onto pnp Si BJTs in experiment. The experimental results show that the turn-off time, including the storage time and fall time, decreases with increases in fast neutron fluence. Additionally, it is confirmed that the base current increases, and the collector current and base-to-collector current amplification ratio decrease due to fast neutron irradiation.

Transformation-associated recombination (TAR) 클로닝법은 목적 유전자를 포함한 게놈 DNA와 그 유전자의 5' 또는 3' 말단 서열을 포함하고 있는 선형의 TAR vector를 동시에 출아효모의 spheroplast내로 co-penetration 시켜 상동부위에서 일어나는 재조합에 의해 환형의 Yeast Artification Chromosome(YAC)으로 분리되는 방법이다. 일반적으로 TAR 클로닝법에 의한 목적의 single-copy 유전자 분리 빈도는 전체 형질전환체의 0.01~1% 정도이다. 이러한 TAR 클로닝법을 개선하기 위하여 Tg.AC transgenic mouse를 모델계로 사용하여 유전자 분리에 대한 target hook 내의 GC content 가 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. 이러한 목적으로 한쪽에는 다양한 GC content(18~45%)를 지닌 transgene 특이적 hook을 포함하고 다른 한쪽은 B1 반복서열을 가지는 radial TAR vector를 사용하여 transgene 분리 빈도를 측정하였다. 그 결과 target hook의 GC content는 23% 이하의 경우, ~40%인 경우에 비해 두 배 정도 클로닝 빈도가 감소하였다. 따라서 TAR vector를 제작할 때, 유전자 분리에 이용되는 target hook의 GC content는 약 40% 일때 가장 적정한 것으로 나타났다. 또한 높은 target hook 내의 GC content(65%)위치분포에 의한 차이는 클로닝 빈도에 큰 영향을 미치지 않는 것으로 나타났다.

광음향 분광법을 이용하여 GaAs와 Si 반도체에서 운반자 운송특성을 연구하고 열확산도를 측정하였다. 변조주파수에 따른 반도체에 광음향신호와 위상으로부터 반도체에서의 운반자 특성이 낮은 주파수영역에서는 주로 순간적인 열원에 의하며, 높은 주파수영역에서는 비방사 벌크재결합과 비방사 표면재결합에 의한 효과임을 관찰하였다. GaAs와 같은 직접전이 밴드갭을 갖는 반도체의 경우 위의 세가지 광음향효과를 모두 나타내는 반면, Si과 같은 간접전이 밴드갭을 갖는 반도체의 경우 순간적인 열원에 의한 효과와 비방사 벌크재결합에 의한 효과만을 볼 수 있었다. 이러한 효과로 변조주파수에 따른 광음향신호의 위상에서 GaAs 반도체는 극소값을 보이는 반면 Si 반도체에서는 단조감소하는 것을 관찰할 수 있다. 아울러 광음향신호로부터 반도체 시료의 열확산도 ${\alpha}_s$는 GaAs의 경우 0.35 $\textrm{cm}^2/s$ 이고 Si의 경우 1.24 $\textrm{cm}^2/s$ 를 얻었다. 또한 광음향신호의 위상을 curve fitting하여 열확산도를 측정한 결과 광음향신호로부터 구한 값과 유사한 열확산도를 구할 수 있었다.

In a large scale oil hydraulic system having repeatedly operated actuator, such as a large scale forging press, pressure surges often due to the recombination of oil column in a return line attached to the downstream side of a directional control valve. Expecially, the pressure surges appear very severe ones at a certain valve operating frequency. These pressure surges restrict the operating frequency of the hydraulic system. But related reports on the above mentioned phenomenon are rarely to be found. In this study, therefore, the authors investigate the exact reason why such severe pressure surges occur at a certain range of valve operating frequency. The study is performed by experiment and numerical computation on the relationship between pressure surges and valve operating frequency.

Electrical and optical characteristics of Powder type EL display(P-ELD) in this study are described, In experimental results of V-J, current are increased with increasing the frequency and voltage. Luminance was increased with frequency. This is due to the positive space charge formed to cathode region. Lumiance at 150V, 20 kHz has $840\;cd/m^2$. This tendency is due to the decrease of capacitive reactance in insulator layer. Uniformity of P-ELD shows 97%. CIE chromaticity with increasing frequency are shifted toward blue color. It can be explained in tenn of the difference of recombination energy.
