Serratia marcescens purine nucleoside phosphorylase (PNP) was purfied to homogeneity by streptomycin sulfate treatment, Sephacry HR S-200 gel filtration chromatography and AMP-agarose affinity chromatography. The specific activity of the enzyme was increased 49-fold during purification with an overall yield of 7.0%. The molecular weight was 168kD as estimated by Sephadex G-150 gel filtration chromatography. The S. marcescens enzyme was composed of six identical subunits with subunit molecular weight of 28kD, as estimated by SDS-PAGE. The Km values of S. marcescens enzyme for inosine and deoxyinsoine were 0.38 and 1.20 mM, respectively. The ph optimum was near 8.0, and the enzyme was relatively heat-stable protein. The enzyme was inactivated com-pletely by 0.5 mM of $Cu^{ 2+}$.

The aim of this study is to elucidate characteristics of ${\beta}-lactamase$ inhibitor produced by Streptomyces sp. SMF-19 isolated from soil was found to produce proteinaceous extracellular ${\beta}-lactamase$ inhibitor. The ${\beta}-lactamase$ inhibitor was purified through ammonium sulfate fractionation, gel filtration, anion exchange chromatography and fast performace liquid chromatography. The molecular weight of the ${\beta}-lactamase$ inhibitor was estimated to be about 48,000 by SDS-PAGE. The mode of inhibition against penicillin G as a substrate was uncompetitive. The ${\beta}-lactamase$ inhibitor was stable in wide pH range but unstable at high temperature above $50^{\circ}C$.

A sopA protein (41K) encoded by plasmid pXX288 was observed in the cytoplasm, whereas a sopB protein (37K) encoded by plasmid pXX157 was observed in the membrane fraction. Most of the sopB protein was solubilized from the crude membrane by treatment with Sarkosyl, which suggested that the protein may be located in the inner membrane. The sopA protein was precipitated at the concentration of 30 to 60% ammonium sulfate. The sedimentation profile of the crude membrane fraction showed a little difference according to culture media used, and the sopB protein existed in all fractions of inner membrane. The DNA of plasmids, pXX157, pXX300, and pXX167 co-sedimented with inner membrane fraction.

The s-type pyocin was purified from the lysate of the mitomycin C-induced Pseudomonas aeruginosa 90-2-2205 cells by the other of ammonium sulfate precipitation, DEAE-Sephadex A-50 chromatography and Sephadex G-200 gel filtration. The purity was confirmed by the polyacry-lamide gel electrophoresis. The molecular weight of the purified pyocin was estimated 180, 000 by gel filtration. The pyocin was analyzed to be a complex of some polypeptides by the SDS-PAGE. The pyocin was stable by heat treatment and at pH 6-7.5 by adding 10-3% gelatin and 0.2M NaCl to the 10mM Tris-HCl buffer (pH7.5). Its killing action against the sensitive cells was assumably a single hit process.

This study was undertaken to examine the protein content of GCF and serum from noraml population in order to standardize the sample loading on SDS/PAGE gels. The resulats were as follows ; 1. The protein concentration of serum was not different between normal group and diseased group. 2. In GCF, the bands of lower molecular weight than albumin were heavily stained, but in serum, the protein bands of higher molecalar weight were found. 3. The profile of protein in normal GCF was characterized by heavily staining bands at 77, 66, 55, 26 KDa corresponding to the positions of transferrin, albumin, heavy and light chains of Ig G. Also 47, 37 KDa nonplasma proteins were found.

Storage protein-1 (SP-1) of Gallerio mellonella was identified in hemolvmph and fat body by electrophoresis. SP-1 was purified from hemolvmph by KBr density gradient ultracentrifugation , DEAE-cellulose (DE52) ion-exchange chromatography, and gel permeation chromatography (Sephadex G-200). Purity of SP-1 was confirmed by Non-SDS PAGE and electron microscope. SP-1 is 9.4 nm in diameter and regular octahedron in shape. SP-1 has isoelectric point of 5.7 and native molecular weight of 365 K dalton and is composed of one type of subunit with molecular weight of 82 K dalton. Ttiacylslvcerol and phospholipid were found to be maior lipid components in SP-1.

Hemolymph SHBP (hJHBP) was partially purified from last instar larvae of Bombyx zori by gel filtration and their optimal reaction conditions of dextrin coated charcoal binding assay were determined. Dissociation constant (KD) of hJHBP for JH III was calculated to be 1.45 $\times$ 10-7 M at $4^{\circ}C.$ The molecular weight of hJHBP was estimated to be 30 kDa by gel filtration on a calibrated Sephadex G-100 column and 33 kDa by SDS-PAGE. These results indicate that hSHBP consists of a single polvpeptide chain. Isoelectric point of hJHBP was found to be pH 5.1 and 19 of the first 20 amino acid residues were determined from N-terminus of purified hJHBP.

The L-asparaginase (E. C. 3. 5. 1. 1) enzyme was purified to homogeneity from Pseudomonas aeruginosa 50071 cells that were grown on solid-state fermentation. Different purification steps (including ammonium sulfate fractionation followed by separation on Sephadex G-100 gel filtration and CM-Sephadex C50) were applied to the crude culture filtrate to obtain a pure enzyme preparation. The enzyme was purified 106-fold and showed a final specific activity of 1900 IU/mg with a 43% yield. Sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) of the purified enzyme revealed it was one peptide chain with $M_r$ of 160 kDa. A Lineweaver-Burk analysis showed a $K_m$ value of 0.147 mM and $V_{max}$ of 35.7 IU. The enzyme showed maximum activity at pH 9 when incubated at $37^{\circ}C$ for 30 min. The amino acid composition of the purified enzyme was also determined.

A serine collagenolytic protease was purified from the internal organs of filefish Novoden modestrus, by ammonium sulfate, ion-exchange chromatography on a DEAE-Sephadex A-50, ion-exchange rechromatography on a DEAE-Sephadex A-50, and gel filtration on a Sephadex G-150 column. The molecular mass of the filefish serine collagenase was estimated to be 27.0 kDa by gel filtration and SDS-PAGE. The purified collagenase was optimally active at pH 7.0-8.0 and $55^{\circ}C$. The purified enzyme was rich in Ala, Ser, Leu, and Ile, but poor in Trp, Pro, Tyr, and Met. In addition, the purified collagenolytic enzyme was strongly inhibited by N-P-toluenesulfonyl-L-lysine chloromethyl ketone (TLCK), diisopropylfluorophosphate (DFP), and soybean trypsin inhibitor.

Ginseng (Panax ginseng C.A. Meyer) hairy root transformed with Agrobacterium rhizogenes (strain A4) was examined cytogenetically and histologically to assess its characteristics. The optimum growth of hairy root obtained in hormone-free MS medium (sucrose 30 g/L, pH5-6) for long period cultures. All hairy root strains (HB1, HB2, HB3) had the 2n diploid number (2n=48) of chromosomes in root tip cells. There were no alteration in chromosome structure except in one cell of HB3 strain. Results of SDS-PAGE showed a few difference in pattern and number of bands between normal and hairy root of ginseng. The root anatomy of normal root and hairy root differed each other. The hairy root had a clearly defined vascular strand, and the morphology of cortical cells were disorganised with large intercellular spaces.
