SEDT(System Engineering Design Tool) has been developed for small satellite conceptual design with an aim to verifying the nanosatellite HAUSAT-2 design. The program can calculate the mass and power of whole satellite system having specific mission and estimate the system cost based on mission and user requirements. It is containing various analysis data of more than 200 small satellites. The database will provide the trend analysis results of the small satellites which will become important design factors. This tool has also been verified by applying more than 10 small satellite data through case studies.

Spondyloepiphyseal dysplasia tarda (SEDT) is an X-linked skeletal dysplasia. Patients show disproportionate short stature with short trunk and barrel-shaped chest, which usually become pronounced in late childhood. The radiologic findings are characterized by narrow intervertebral disc spaces and moderate epiphyseal dysplasia of long bones. Here we report a case of SEDT with a novel frameshift mutation in TRAPPC2, the disease-causing gene of SEDT. This is the first Korean report with SEDT confirmed by genetic testing.

Full-length chloride intracellular channel protein 1 (CLIC1) is a member of the family of proteins related to bovine chloride intracellular channel p64. Mutations in the SEDL gene cause spondyloepiphyseal dysplasia tarda (SEDT), a rare X-linked chondrodysplasia. The link between the intracellular chloride channels and SEDL is an important step toward understanding their functional interplay. In the present study, CLIC1 protein was subcloned into the pGEX-KG vector and overexpressed in XL-1 blue cells. We developed a large-scale expression system composed of glutathione S-transferase (GST) fused with a 240-amino-acid CLIC1 protein in Escherichia coli. The soluble CLIC1 protein was successfully purified to homogeneity, and its purity, identity, activity and conformation were determined using SDS-PAGE, MALDI-MS, biophotometer and circular dichroism spectroscopic studies. The binding of both CLIC1 and SEDL proteins in vitro was detected by BIAcore biosensor and fluorescence measurements.

This paper addresses development of the conceptual design program of satellite communication system. A database for more than 200 small satellites of LEO which are between 10kg and 200kg was constructed to conduct a sequential process of conceptual design. General parameters based on the database were derived to be able to use for initial design of satellite communication system. The general conceptual design process developed and programed in this work is applicable to micro-class small satellites without regard to mission types. This conceptual design algorithm is consisted of five sequential steps, in which various parameters are defined every phase. These parameters are utilized for conceptual design through database analysis. The validity of an entire design algorithm has been demonstrated via program simulation.

An X-linked skeletal disorder, SEDT (spondyloepiphyseal dysplasia tarda) is a genetic disease characterized by a disproportionately short trunk and short stature caused by mutations in the SEDL gene. This gene is evolutionarily conserved from yeast to human. The yeast SEDL protein ortholog, Trs20p, has been isolated as a member of a large multi-protein complex called the transport protein particle (TRAPP), which is involved in endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-to-Golgi transport. The interaction between SEDL and partner proteins is important in order to understand the molecular mechanism of SEDL functions. We isolated several SEDL-binding proteins derived from rat cells by an immobilized GST-fusion method. Furthermore, the SEDL-homologue proteins were identified using motif based methods. Common motifs between SEDL-binding proteins and SEDL-homologue proteins were classified into seven types and 78 common motifs were revealed. Sequence similarities were contracted to seven types using phylogenetic trees. In general, types I-III and VI were classified as having the function of acetyl-CoA carboxylase, glycogen phosphorylase, isocitrate dehydrogenase, and enolase, respectively, and type IV was found to be functionally related to the GST protein. Types V and VII were found to contribute to TRAPP vesicle trafficking.

Tetradentate schiff bases cabalt (II) complexes; Co(SED) and Co(ο-BSDT) were synthesized and these complexes allowed to reaction with dry oxygen to form oxygen adduct cobalt(III) complexes such as $[Co(o-BSDT)(DMSO)]_2O_2,\;[Co(SED)(Py)]_2O_2\;and\;[Co(o-BSDT)(Py)]_2O_2$ in DMSO and pyridine solutions. It has been found that the oxygen adduct cobalt(III) complexes have hexacoordinated octahedral configuration with tetradentate schiff base cobalt(II), DMSO or pyridine and oxygen, and the mole ratio of oxygen to cobalt(II) complexes are 1:2. The redox processes, were investigated for Co(SEDT) and Co(ο-BSD) complexes in 0.1M TEAP-DMSO and 0.1M TEAP-pyridine by cyclic voltammetry with glassy carbon electrode. As a result the redox processes of Co(II)/Co(III) and Co(II)/Co(I) found to be reversible or quasi-reversible for non uptake oxygen complexes but oxygen adduct complexes found to be irreversible processes and reaction processes of oxygen for oxygen adduct complexes are quasi-reversible process, the potential range was $E_{pc}=-0.85{\sim}-1.19V\;and\;E_{pa}=-0.74{\sim}-0.89V$.
