다양한 목적의 블록체인 플랫폼이 개발되어 블록체인 생태계가 발전되는 와중에 각 블록체인들이 고립돼서 운용되는 상호운용성 문제가 나타나고 있다. 이에 본 연구에서 블록체인들을 연결해주는 블록체인인 인터체인과 사이드체인 기술을 소개하고 이를 적용함으로써 이기종 블록체인간 거래와 기능을 사용하는 예를 설명하였다. 또한, 4차 산업혁명에서 주목받는 기술인 블록체인, 인공지능, IoT 각각의 기술들이 독자적인 발전과정을 넘어서서 서로 융합하여 발전하는 과정을 거치고 있다. 이에 대해서 블록체인에 인공지능을 또는 IoT가 결합하는 과정들을 제시하고 더불어 블록체인과 인공지능 IoT의 결합을 이기종 블록체인간의 거래와 교류를 위한 과정에 적용해서 개입 없이 작동할 수 있는 모델을 제안하였다.

We report a quantum chemical study of an extremely efficient nucleophilic aromatic fluorination in molten salts. We describe that the mechanism involves solvent anion interacting with the ion pair nucleophile $M^+F^-$(M = Na, K, Rb, Cs) to accelerate the reaction. We show that our proposed mechanism may well explain the excellent efficiency of molten salts for SNAr reactions, the relative efficacy of the metal cations, and also the observed large difference in rate constants in two molten salts $(n-C_4H_9)_4N^+\;CX_3SO_3^-$, (X=H, F) with slightly different sidechain ($-CH_3$ vs. $-CF_3$).

Geometric manipulation of molecules is an essential elementary component in computational modeling programs for molecular structure, stability, dynamics, and design. The computational complexity of transformation of internal coordinates to Cartesian coordinates was discussed before.1 The use of rotation matrices was found to be slightly more efficient than that of quaternion although quaternion operators have been widely advertised for rotational operations, especially in molecular dynamics simulations of liquids where the orientation is a dynamical variable.2 The discussion on computational efficiency is extended here to a more general case in which bond angles and sidechain torsion angles are allowed to vary. The algorithm of Thompson3 is derived again in terms of quaternions as well as rotation matrices, and an algorithm with optimal efficiency is described. The algorithm based on rotation matrices is again found to be slightly more efficient than that based on quaternions.

Function of protein is frequently related with tautomeric states of histidine sidechains. Thus, several NMR experiments were developed to determine the tautomeric states of histidines. However, poor sensitivity of these experiments caused by long duration of magnetization transfer periods is unavoidable. Here, we alleviate the sensitivity of HCN experiment for determining the tautomeric states of histidine residues using TROSY principle to suppress transverse relaxation of $^{13}C$ spins during long polarization transfer delays involving $^{13}C-^{15}N$ scalar couplings. In addition, this experiment was used to assign the sidechain resonances of histidines. These assignments can be used to follow the pH-titration of histidine sidechains.

열분해 연료유(pyrolysis fuel oil)의 열처리 시 발생되는 구조변화를 파악하기 위하여 열처리 온도에 따라 발생되는 휘발유분(volatile matters) 및 중질유분을 분리하였다. 열처리 온도가 증가함에 따라 중질유분의 수율은 낮아지며, 탄화수율은 높아지는 것을 확인하였다. 휘발유분의 $^1H-NMR$ 구조분석 결과, 원료에 포함되어 있던 1~2환 방향족 성분들은 $340^{\circ}C$ 이전의 온도에서 대부분 제거되었으며, $320^{\circ}C$부터는 크래킹 반응에 의하여 방향족 화합물로부터 지방족 탄화수소 곁사슬이 분해됨에 따라 새로운 휘발유분을 생성하는 것을 확인하였다. 한편 중질유분의 원소분석 및 $^1H-NMR$ 구조분석 결과로부터, 열처리 온도가 증가할수록 C/H 몰비 및 방향족화도 값이 증가함을 알 수 있었다. 이러한 구조분석 결과를 통하여 PFO의 $280{\sim}360^{\circ}C$에서의 열처리에 따른 구조 변화는 비점 차이에 따른 휘발유분의 분리 및 크래킹 반응에 의한 지방족 곁사슬의 분해가 가장 큰 영향을 미치며, 일부 화학종 간 중합반응 또한 발생된 것을 확인하였다.

HP0827 has two RNP motif which is a very common protein domain involved in recognition of a wide range of ssRNA/DNA.We acquired 3D NMR spectra of HP0827 which shows well dispersed and homogeneous signals which allows us to assign 98% of all $^1H_N$, $^{15}N$, $^{13}C_{\alpha}$, $^{13}C_{\beta}$ and $^{13}C$=O resonances and 90% of all sidechain resonances. The sequence-specific backbone resonance assignment of HP0827 can be used to gain deeper insights into the nucleic acids binding specificity of HP0827 in the future study. Here, we report secondary structure prediction of HP0827 derived from NMR data. Additionally, ssRNA/DNA binding assay studies was also conducted. This study might provide a clue for exact function of HP0827 based on structure and sequence.

The rise of the Internet of Things (IoT) devices have greatly influenced many industries and one of them is healthcare where wearable devices started to track all your daily activities for better health monitoring accuracy and even down to tracking daily food intake in some cases. With the amounts of data that are being tracked and shared between from these devices, questions were raised on how to uphold user's data privacy when data is shared between these IoT devices and third party. With the blockchain platforms started to mature since its inception, the technology can be implemented according to a variety of use case scenarios. In this paper, we present a system architecture based on the healthcare system and IoT network by leveraging on multiple blockchain networks as the medium in between that should enable users to have direct authority on data accessibility of their shared data. We provide proof of concept implementation and highlight the results from our testing to show how the efficiency and scalability of the healthcare system improved without having a significant impact on the performance of the Electronic Medical Record (EMR) that mostly affected by the previous solution since these solutions directly connected to a public blockchain network and which resulted in significant delays and high cost of operation when a large amount of data or complicated functions are involved.

The CYP11A1 gene encodes for the cholesterol side-chain cleavage enzyme (P450scc), which initiates steroid hormone biosynthesis. Defective P450scc activity results in severe glucocorticoid and mineralocorticoid deficiencies. We describe a case of P450scc deficiency due to a novel homozygous CYP11A1 variant inherited from the mother with a possibility of uniparental disomy (UPD). The patient was a female, had no family history of endocrine disease, and showed adrenal insufficiency at 13 days of age. Hormonal analysis with an adrenocorticotropic hormone stimulation test showed both glucocorticoid and mineralocorticoid deficiencies, presumed to be a defect of the early stage of steroidogenesis. Exome sequencing reported a novel homozygous frameshift variant of CYP11A1 (c.284_285del, p.Asn95Serfs*10), which was inherited from the mother. Additionally, homozygosity in 15q22.31q26.2, which included CYP11A1, was identified using a chromosomal microarray. It was suggested that the possibility of maternal UPD was involved as the cause of a P450scc deficiency by unmasking the maternally derived affected allele. To our understanding, P450scc deficiency associated with UPD encompassing CYP11A1 had not been reported in Korea before. Genetic analysis can help diagnose rare causes of primary adrenal insufficiency, including P450scc deficiency.
