  • From a cluster of structural rRNA genes which has previsouly been cloned (Hwang and Kim, in submission; J. Microbiol. Biotechnol.), a 1.0-kb Eco RI fragment of DNA which shows significant homology to the 25S and rRNA s of Tricholoma matsutake was used for sequence analysis. Nucleotide sequence was bidirectionally determined using delection series of the DNA fragment. Comparing the resultant 1016-base sequence with sequences in the database, both the 3'end of 25S-rRNA gene and 5S rRNA gene were searched. The 5S rRNA gene is 118-bp in length and is located 158-bp downstream of 3'end of the 25S rRNA gene. IGSI and IGS2 (partial) sequences are also contained in the fragment. Multiple alignment of the 5S rRNA sequences was carried out with 5S rRNA sequences from some members of the subdivision Basidiomycotina obtained from the database. Polygenetic analysis with distance matrix established by Kimura's 2-parameter method and phylogenetic tree by UPGMA method proposed that T. matsutake is closely related to efibulobasidium allbescens. Secondary structure of 5S rRNA was also hypothesized to show similar topology with its generally accepted eukaryotic counterpart.

  • 원핵생물체의 생명유지에 중요한 역할을 담당하는 유전자들을 밝히기 위해 미생물 유전체들 사이의 공통적 유전자를 파악하는 COG 알고리즘을 이용하였다. 원핵생물 711종 모두에 보존적인 것은 COG0080 (Ribosomal protein L11) 1개였다. 708종 이상의 원핵생물에 보존적인 22개의 ortholog 중 전사관련 2개, tRNA synthetase 관련4개, ribosamal large subunit 8개, ribosomal small subunit 7개였다. 700종 이상의 원핵생물에 보존적인 COG는 58개였다. 이중 리보좀을 구성하는 소단위체 등 번역 관련 COG가 50개(86.2%), 전사관련 COG가 4개(6.9%)로 나타나 생명현상에서의 단백질의 중요성을 알 수 있었다. 58개의 COG 중 보존성은 COG0060 (Isoleucyl tRNA synthetase)이 가장 높았고 COG0143 (Methionyl tRNA synthetase)이 가장 낮았다. 문(phylum)과 강(class) 수준에서 보존적 유전자들의 평균과 분산으로 유전체 분석을 수행한 결과 변이가 큰 고세균은 진정세균과 구분되었으며 편차는 일부 진정세균이 고세균보다 컸다. 보존적 유전자를 탐색하는 본 연구의 기법은 기초과학 연구와 함께 항균제 개발과 항암요법 개발 등에도 유용할 것이다.

  • Red algal mitochondrial genomes (mtDNAs) can provide useful information on species identification. mtDNAs of Pyropia / Porphyra (Bangiales, Rhodophyta) have shown diverse variation in their size and gene structure. In particular, the introns and intronic open reading frames found in the ribosomal RNA large subunit gene (rnl) and cytochrome c oxidase subunit 1 gene (cox1) significantly vary the mitochondrial genome size in Pyropia / Porphyra species. In this study, we examined the exon / intron structure of rnl and cox1 genes of Pyropia yezoensis at the intraspecific level. The combined data of rnl and cox1 genes exhibited 12 genotypes for 40 P. yezoensis strains, based on the existence of introns. These genotypes were more effective to identify P. yezoensis strains in comparison to the traditional DNA barcode cox1 marker (5 haplotypes). Therefore, the variation in gene structure of rnl and cox1 can be a novel molecular marker to discriminate the strains of Pyropia species.

  • A bacterial strain that excretes hemolysins and proteases into the growth medium was isolated from sea water and designated as KYJ 961. A nearly complete nucleotide sequence of a 16S ribosomal RNA gene from the isolate was determined following the isolation and cloning of amplified genes. On the basis of the 16S ribosomal DNA sequence data, and morphological, chemotaxonomic, and physiological characteristics, strain KYJ 961 was classified as a strain of Bacillus cereus.

  • A spionid polychaete, Boccardiella hamata (Webster, 1879) has been found from mud in crevices between the shells of oysters and adherent substrates in South Korea. The sequences of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) cytochrome c oxidase subunit 1 (CO1), 16S ribosomal DNA (16S), and the nuclear 18S ribosomal DNA (18S) from Korean individuals of Boccardiella hamata were determined in the present study. The molecular analysis based on the 18S rRNA gene sequences showed clear separation among the spionid polychaete species, and the sequences of Korean and Japanese individuals are completely identical. The morphological diagnosis and photographs of B. hamata are also provided.

  • The 58 rRNA gene from Sphingobium chungbukense DJ77 was identified. The secondary structure of the 199-base-long RNA was proposed. The two-base-long D loop was the shortest among all of the known 5S rRNAs. The U19-U64 non-canonical pair in the helix II region was uniquely found in strain DJ77 among all of the sphingomonads.

  • The virus-induced genome editing (VIGE) system aims to induce targeted mutations in seeds without requiring any tissue culture. Here, we show that tobacco rattle virus (TRV) harboring guide RNA (gRNA) edits germ cells in a wild tobacco, Nicotiana attenuata, that expresses Streptococcus pyogenes Cas9 (SpCas9). We first generated N. attenuata transgenic plants expressing SpCas9 under the control of 35S promoter and infected rosette leaves with TRV carrying gRNA. Gene-edited seeds were not found in the progeny of the infected N. attenuata. Next, the N. attenuata ribosomal protein S5 A (RPS5A) promoter fused to SpCas9 was employed to induce the heritable gene editing with TRV. The RPS5A promoter-driven SpCas9 successfully produced monoallelic mutations at three target genes in N. attenuata seeds with TRV-delivered guide RNA. These monoallelic mutations were found in 2%-6% seeds among M1 progenies. This editing method provides an alternative way to increase the heritable editing efficacy of VIGE.
