  • To determine the prevalence of genetic polymorphisms in Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) strains in the Korean population, the restriction site polymorphisms for BamHI and XhoI enzymes were analyzed with 16 EBV isolates from cancer patients and 7 EBV isolates from healthy carriers, using polymerase chain reaction techniques. None of the 23 isolates were found to carry an extra BamHI site in the BamHI F-fragment (f-variant). Of the 12 type-1 isolates from the cancer patients, 10 lost both the LMP1 XhoI site and the BamHI site between the BamHi W1* and I1* fragments (a W1*I1* fusion variant or type C). The latter W1*I1* fusion variant was due to a mutation of thymidine to adenine, as evidenced by a sequence analysis. The remaining two type-1 isolates showed either no variation at both sites or the loss of only the XhoI site. In contrast, two type-2 isolates and two intertypic recombinants with a type-1 allele at the EBNA2 locus and type-2 alleles at all or some of the EBNA3 loci retained both enzyme sites. In similar analyses of the 7 isolates from the healthy carriers, five of six type-1 isolates lost these two sites, however, one type-2 isolate did not. These results clearly indicate a strong association of both the LMP1 XhoI site loss and the W1*I1* fusion variant with the type-1 rather than the type-2 EBV strains circulating in the immunocompetent Korean carriers.

  • Vertical distribution of heterotrophic bacteria and physico-chemical characteristics were measuted in Kum River estuarine sediments. And interrelationship between heterotrophic bacterka and environmental factors was also studied. The type of sediment of Site 1 was silty clay, and sand at Site 2. Annual pH ranges were between 7.1 and 7.7 in the clay type sediment (Site 1) and 6.9-7.2 in the sand type sediment (Site 2). It was shown that organic matter contents were higher in the clay type sediment than those of sand type sediment. Redox potential values of sediments were decreased rapidly with depth at Site 1, but those of Sete 2 showed vertical fluctuation. Nitrogens(ammonia+amino acid-N, nitrate-N, nitrite-N) and phosphate in the clay type sediment showed higher values than those of sand type sediment. Annual distribution of heterotrophic bacteria were ranged $6.71{\times}10^4$ cells/g dry wt. $-2.50{\times}10^6$ cells/g dry wt. In the clay type sediment and $2.67{\times}10^3$ cells/g dry wt. $-1.94{\times}10^6$ cells/g dry wt. in the sand type sediment. Distribution of proteolytic, lipolytic, and amylolytic bacteria were decreased with the depth and the highest density was found in April and the lowest in January. Bacterial populations in sediments were closely correlated with such environmental factors as pH, redox potential, moisture content, organic matter contents, and inorganic nutrients such as nitrite-N and phosphate-P.

  • In this study, we have quantified genotype frequency of the cytochrome P450 (P450) 2E1 which codes for the P450 enzyme primarily responsible for the metabolic activation of carcinogenic nitrosamines and low molecular organic solvents, in Korean population by using PCR and RFLP at two sites previously associated with some cancers; a PstI and RsaI RFLP in the transcriptional regulatory region of the human P450 2E1 gene. The genotype frequencies of homozygous wild type (PstI site-absent) and heterozygous mutant type (PstI site-present) in PstI RFLP were 0.70 and 030, respectively. The homozygous mutant type in Pstl RFLP was not observed in Korean population. The genotype frequencies of homozygous wild type (RsaI site-present), heterozygous mutant type (RsaI site-absent), and homozygous mutant type in RsaI RFLP were 0.71, 0.26, and 0.03, respectively.

  • The study is about the process of modernization of conventional rural houses in Kyung-gi province. It alms to identify the pattern of change, particularly focusing on the changes of the site plan and plan. The site of study is Samga Village, in YongIn County, near Seoul. The study discusses the process of modernization during the three decades from 1960 to 1980. The basic information was obtained through field research and site analysis, and the study relies predominatly on observational and statistical analysis. Four developmental stages can be clearly identified which are ; (1) Traditional type, (2)Modified-traditional type, (3) Saemaul type, and (4) The type of urban houses. The analysis was done through identification of changing site plan and plan. It is interesting to note that the changes of these elements show a certain pattern of sequential steps which also can be classified according to the four developmental stages mentioned above. The pattern of site design was consistantly maintained while plan and building system became very different However, the process of modernization of Korean rural houses was the process of producing a certain type of architecture that is not universal but uniquely Korean.

  • The Integration Host factor (IHF) of Escherichia coli is a small, basic protein that is required for a variety of functions including site-specific recombination, transposition, gene regulation, plasmid replication, and DNA packaging. It ,is composed of two subunits that are encoded by the ihfA ($\alpha$-subunit) and ihjB ($\beta$-subunit) genes. IHF binding sites are composed of three elements called the WATCAR, TTG, and poly (dAT) elements. We have characterized IHF binding to the H site of bacteriophage λ. We have isolated suppressors that bind to altered H' sites using a challenge phage selection. Two different suppressors were isolated that changed the adjacent $\alpha$P64 and $\alpha$K65 residues. The suppressors recognized both the wild-type site and a site with a change in the WATCAR element. Three suppressors were isolated at $\beta$-E44. These suppressors bound the wild-type and a mutant site with a T:A to A:T change (H44A) in the middle of the TIR element. Site-directed mutagenesis was used to make several additional changes at $\beta$E44. The wild-type and $\beta$E44D mutant could not bind the wild-type site but were able to bind the H44A mutant site. Other mutants with neutral, polar, or a positive charge at $\beta$E44 were able to repress both the wild-type and H44A sites. Examination of the IHF crystal structure suggests that the ability of the wild-type and $\beta$E44D proteins to discriminate between the T:A and A:T basepairs is due to indirect interactions. The $\beta$-E44 residue does not contact the DNA directly. It imposes binding specificity indirectly by interactions with residues that contact the DNA. Details of the proposed interactions are discussed.

  • This study examined the characteristics of total consumers' anti-sites on on-line and their changes according to the establishment year of consumers' anti-sites, the activities and the evaluation of consumers' anti-sites and their differences according to the characteristics of consumers' anti-sites. Total 649 consumers' anti sites were analyzed for examining the characteristics of total consumers' anti-sites and 18 anti sites were selected for examining the activities and the evaluations of consumers' anti site. The anti sites were evaluated by the index of using in preceding research. The result showed that about 90% of total consumers' anti-site were not activated, only a few consumers participated even in the activated sites, most activity of the anti-site were operated only on on-line not off-line, over half of anti-sites targeted to the company in the type of the subject of anti-site, and the majority of the external shape of anti-site were cafe. On the change of characteristics according to the opening year, the proportion of cafe and the sites acting on both on-line and off-line were increased year by year. The number of anti-sites was decreased since 2005 and the proportion of highly activated sites was lowest in 2005. On the activity of anti-sites, the number of providing the information were more than the number of presenting the complaint among the bulletin writings. The number of the bulletin writing were more in highly activated sites than in low activated sites. most of highly activated sites were problem solving type compared to the low activated sites. The number of the bulletin writings in company anti-sites were the most among three type of subject of anti-site. The number of the bulletin writings in cafe type were more than in home-page type. On the evaluation of consumers' anti-sites, most of the sites didn't update the notices and provided incomplete information how consumers participated in the protesting movements. The highly activated sites functioned better in most parts in providing a information, connection with other consumer and site manager, management of the site.

  • This study was conducted to compare the design rainfall derived by the at-site and regional frequency analysis based on the regionalization of the precipitation. The regional and at-site design rainfalls were calculated by Log-Pearson type III distribution using Indirect Methods of Moments(WRC). The regional and at-site analysis for the design rainfall were tested by Monte Carlo simulation. Relative root-mean-square error(RRMSE), Relative bias(RBIAS) and Relative reduction(RR) in RRMSE were computed and compared between design rainfalls resulted from observed and simulated data using the regional and at-site analysis. It was shown that the regional analysis procedure can substantially reduce the RRMSE, RBIAS in comparison with those of at-site analysis. Consequently, optimal design rainfalls following the regions and consecutive durations were derived by the regional frequency analysis.

  • The objective of this article is to develop residential site planning techniques for the energy conservation by focusing on energy conscious site design process, influencing natural factors for energy conservation and suggestion of multi - family housing Prototypes. This article is the second part of the article titled "A Study on an Energy - Effective Site Planning for a Residential Environment"which is published in the previous issue (Vol. 12, No. 2) of this journal. The first part of the article dealt with how to make best use of energy conserving effect of natural forces such as sun, wind and water, and the selection techniques of suitable residential site for achieving energy conservation. The second part proposes the energy conscious design process of residential site development and suggests building forms of single family and multi -family housings. The three multi - family housing prototypes haute been developed which are most energy -effective ; the linear type, the cut -de -sac type and the atrium type. In the process of creating the prototypes, energy conserving design criteria have been also developed. These criteria can be used to develop some other alternative prototypes.

  • This report is results of an investigation on the secondary succession and species diversity of the burned area. Fifty hectares of pine forest was burned by the crown fire of the spring (April 6) 1986. The results obtained from spring 1989 were summarized as follows: In the burned area , site and unburned area (U), the vascular plant fo 69 kinds, 49 kinds and 24 kinds were lsted respectively. The life form spectrum of burned area was H---e type, which is common type in most burned area and that unburned area, H---e type. The species diversity (H)and evenness index (e) of burned area (, site) were H=2.51, 1.65 and e=0.59, 0.44 and those of unburned area (U) were H=1.28 and e=0.40. The similarity index was the value of 0.594 in - and 0.236 in -U site. The similarity between and site was greater than between site and U site, and that between and U-site, The dominance index (c) of , and U-site was 0.16, 0.39 and 0.42 respectively. The succession degree (DS) of , and U-site was 244.0, 227.6 and 854.4 respectively. Soil pH, available phosphorous, and exchangeable potassium in the burned area were higher than those in the unburned area, and total nitrogen, organic carbon, and C/N ratio in the burned area were higher than those in the unburned area, and organic matter in the burned area was higher than that in the unburned area.
