Eugenol is a volatile compound synthesized by eugenol synthase in various plants and belongs to phenylpropene compounds. However, characteristics of eugenol synthase in tomato has not been known. Therefore, we cloned a full length cDNA of a putative eugenol synthase from tomato 'Micro-Tom' using rapid amplification of cDNA ends (RACE) technique and named a clone SlEGS. Open reading frame of SlEGS was 921bp long and its deduced amino acid sequence was 307bp. The BLAST analysis indicated that SlEGS shared high similarity with PhEGS1 (67.1%) and CbEGS2 (69.4%). Amino acid composition of SlEGS was determined by CLC genomics workbench tool and 3D structure of SlEGS was constructed by homology modeling using Swiss-PDB viewer and validated using PROCHECK and ProSA-web tool. In addition, the physiochemical properties of SlEGS was evaluated using ExPASy's ProtParam tool. Molecular weight was 33.93kDa and isoelectric point was 5.85 showing acidic nature. Other properties such as extinction coefficient, instability index, aliphatic index, and grand average hydropathy was also analyzed.

The mutagenesis-enhancing plasmid pKM101 and its mutant pSL4 were introduced into Escherichia coli B/r strains possessing different DNA repair capacities ($phr^{-}, recA^{-}, uvrA^{-}, uvrB^{-}$) and determined the protection effect and mutagenecity for UV and MNNG. The mutability and protection effect of plasmid pKM101 and pSL4 were affected by different DNA repair capacity. The mutagenecity and resistance of two plasmids were increased against UV and MNNG, and plasmid pSL4 had a higher effect than pKM101. We suggest that the functional differences between pKM101 and pSL4 is due to the variety of mutator gene.

This study is concerned with the SL shear reinforcement that it can be installed easily in filed as product at the factory and seismic performance can be achieved. The method of study is as follows. first, we researched constructability and economy of existing method. Secondly, we made specimen and were examined structural performance tests in order to verify the performance of the shear reinforcement. Shear strength of HILL01-HILL03 specimen applied to SL shear reinforcement increased about 5-14% when compared with the applied shear stirrup reinforcing existing specimens. Also, the amount of the maximum deflection of the central sub-section of HILL01-HILL03 specimen applied to SL shear reinforcement decreased about 41-42% when compared with the applied shear stirrup reinforcing existing specimens. As a result, developed SL shear reinforcement increased in shear strength and stiffness of reinforcement, structural safety is judged to be increased.

Objectives : We aim to assist in choosing an appropriate method for word extraction when analyzing East Asian Traditional Medical texts based on unsupervised learning. Methods : In order to assign ranks to substrings, we conducted a test using one method(BE:Branching Entropy) for exterior boundary value, three methods(CS:cohesion score, TS:t-score, SL:simple-ll) for interior boundary value, and six methods(BExSL, BExTS, BExCS, CSxTS, CSxSL, TSxSL) from combining them. Results : When Miss Rate(MR) was used as the criterion, the error was minimal when the TS and SL were used together, while the error was maximum when CS was used alone. When number of segmented texts was applied as weight value, the results were the best in the case of SL, and the worst in the case of BE alone. Conclusions : Unsupervised-Learning-Based Word Extraction is a method that can be used to analyze texts without a prepared set of vocabulary data. When using this method, SL or the combination of SL and TS could be considered primarily.

We investigated the relative growth and squamation of larvae and juveniles of cultured Larimichthys polyactis. Analysis of the relative growth of larvae and juveniles showed that their preanal length, head length, eye diameter, body depth, and snout length increased with growth. There was no significant chage in the relative growth. The ratio of preanus length to standard length (SL) increased rapidly until SL was approximately 12 mm, and then increased gradually. Cycloid scales first appeared on the lateral line, progressed to the abdominal cavity at 15.13 mm SL, and expanded to the occipital region, base of pectoral fin, and ventral region of the eye at 17.82 mm SL. At 18.03 mm SL, scales formed on the cheek, and those at the base of pectoral fin and in the abdominal cavity were connected to each other. At 19.06 mm SL, major part of the head was covered by scales, except near the lower jaw. Cycloid scales on the lateral line changed to ctenoid scales at the range of 31.71-32.24 mm SL, and those on the nape changed at the range of 69.02-70.84 mm SL. Our results may help to establish conservation and management strategy for Larimichthys polyactis aquaculture.

This paper proposes a method that generates test cases from Simulink/Stateflow(SL/SF) using a SMT (Satisfiability Modulo Theory) solver, Yices and information of SL/SF model. The most difficult problem to generate test cases from SL/SF model is to solve reachability problem. In the propose method, Yices and the tables built with the model information are utilized to solve the reachability problem. The method utilizes the SMT model, that is the SL/SF model transformed in Yices. The tables built from SL/SF are used for backward processing of the proposed method and increases test generation efficiency. A commercial refrigerator model and two car ECU (Electrical Control Unit) models are used to evaluate the performance of the proposed algorithm..

Samples of Potamocorbula ustulata ustulata were collected monthly from October 2004 to November 2005 in the Jujin estuary of Gochang, Chollabuk-do, west coast of Korean peninsula. Age of P. ustulata ustulata was determined by the rings on the shell. The relationship between the shell length and the ring diameter in each ring group was expressed as a regression line. Therefore, there is a correspondence in each ring formation. Based on the monthly variation of the marginal index (MI') of the shell, it is assumed that the ring of this species was formed once a year during October to December. The relationship between the shell length (SL) and the shell height (SH; mm) was highly correlated with shell height as the following equation: SH = 0.6438 SL + 0.5642 ($r^2\;=\;0.978$). The shell length (SL) - shell width (SW) relation was also expressed by the following equation: SW = 0.4352 SL - 0.5675 ($r^2\;=\;0.957$). Shell length (SL; mm) and the total weight (TW; g) followed: $TW\;=\;6.999\;{\times}\;10^{-5}\;SL^{3.2542}(r^2\;=\;0.975)$. Growth curves for the shell length and the total weight fitted to the von Bertalanffy's growth curve were expressed respectively as: $$SL_t=30.77[1-e^{-0.4572(t+0.7371)}],\;TW_t=4.87[1-e^{-0.4572(t+0.7371)}]^{3.2542}.$$

Solanum lyratum(Solanaceae) has been used as a traditional analgesic, antipyretic and hepatoprotective agents in Korea. In this study, we investigated the hepatoprotective effect of ethylacetate extract of Solanum lyratum (SL) on the dimethylnitrosamine (DMN)-induced liver damage in rats. Oral administration of SL (150, 300 mg/kg daily for 4 weeks) into the DMN-treated rats remarkably prevented the elevation of serum alanine transaminase, aspartate transaminase and alkaline phosphatase levels. SL also increased serum protein level and reduced the hepatic level of malondialdehyde in DMN-treated rats. Furthermore, DMN-induced elevation of hydroxyproline content was reduced by the treatment of SL. In conclusion, these results demonstrated that SL exhibited in vivo hepatoprotective effect against DMN-induced liver injury, and suggest that SL may be useful in the prevention of liver damage.

In this paper, we characterize SL(2, $\mathbb{C}$)-representations of an n-periodic link $\tilde{L}$ in terms of SL(2, $\mathbb{C}$)-representations of its quotient link L and express the SL(2, $\mathbb{C}$)-representation variety R($\tilde{L}$) of $\tilde{L}$ as the union of n affine algebraic subsets which have the same dimension. Also, we show that the dimension of R($\tilde{L}$) is bounded by the dimensions of affine algebraic subsets of the SL(2, $\mathbb{C}$)-representation variety R(L) of its quotient link L.

SL(Stereolithography) part is made by piling up thin layers which causes the stair stepping effect at the surface of SL parts. The effect brings about excessive surface roughness and cuts down the merits of using SL part. Hence, additional post-machining finishing such as traditional grinding is required. But the traditional post-machining is detrimental to part geometry and time consuming. In this study, therefore, a paraffin coating and grinding post-machining is newly proposed to improve the surface quality of SL fart. The paraffin which has suitable properties for the proposed post-machining is coated all over the part surface. By grinding the only over-coated paraffin based on boundary of the SL part surface, the surface roughness can be improved without any damage on the part. Also, it is verified that SL part finished by the proposed post-machining process can be applied for rapid tooling as pattern through manufacturing silicon rubber molding and casting test.
