3.3kb 웅성특이 DNA(pEM39 plasmid DNA)가 성 특이 DNA 검색자로 활용되어질 수 있는가를 확인하기 위하여 구조적인 분석을 Southern blotting, DNA sequencing과 computer program 분석을 통하여 실시하였다. 전체 3.3kb에서 유래된 약 1kb 단위의 단편을 이용하여 표지된 짧은 DNA probe들은 Southern blot 분석에서 웅성특이성을 나타내었다. McGraw와 Jeon의 sequence에 대한 유사성 비교 자료로부터 여러 부분의 conserved region을 찾아내고 이것을 기초로 하여 5개의 primer set들을 선발하였다. Conserved region에 존재하면서 computer program에 의해서 선발되어진 PMS1과 2의 primer set가 최종적으로 PCR 분석을 위하여 선정되었다. 이 primer set를 사용한 PCR 분석에서, 1ng부터 10pg까지의 웅성 genomic DNA에서 PCR 산물을 얻을 수 있었으며, 자성의 경우는 어떠한 산물도 찾을 수 없었다. PCR에 이용할 수정란의 시료는 2 세포기의 수정란에서 얻었으며 순수 분리된 genomic DNA에서 확립된 조건에서 PCR을 수행하였다. 8개의 수정란을 분석한 결과 4개의 웅성과 4개의 자성 수정란을 확인하였다. 이러한 결과는 선정된 primer set가 돼지 수정란의 성을 조기 감별하는데 효율적인 DNA probe로 사용될 수 있다는 것을 암시한다.

This study is to predict the possible roles of the aryisulfate sulfotransferase (ASST) in the microorganism. At first we studied the spectrum of a distribution of the ASST enzyme through about 1,300 bacteria and the several selected strains were compared with Klebsiella K-36 previously reported in the level of DNA homology using the Southern blot method. From this study, we could predict that this enzyme would not exist in specific bacteria and it might not be a critical enzyme for the life of bacteria.

The dapD gene of Brevibacterium lactofermentum encoding tetrahydrodipicolinate N-succinyl transferase, one of the enzymes involved in lysine biosynthesis, was cloned by complementation of Escherichia coli dapD mutnat. The recombinant plasmid pLS1 was found to contain a 3.6 kb DNA fragment. Southern hybridization analysis confirmed that the cloned DNA fragment originated from B. lactofermentum. The data of L-lysine production showed that the B. lactofermentum dapD gene was expressed in E. coli.

Background: Myocardial fibrosis post-myocardial infarction (MI) can induce maladaptive cardiac remodeling as well as heart failure. Although 20(S)-ginsenoside Rg3 (Rg3) has been applied to cardiovascular diseases, its efficacy and specific molecular mechanism in myocardial fibrosis are largely unknown. Herein, we aimed to explore whether TGFBR1 signaling was involved in Rg3's anti-fibrotic effect post-MI. Methods: Left anterior descending (LAD) coronary artery ligation-induced MI mice and TGF-β1-stimulated primary cardiac fibroblasts (CFs) were adopted. Echocardiography, hematoxlin-eosin and Masson staining, Western-blot and immunohistochemistry, CCK8 and Edu were used to study the effects of Rg3 on myocardial fibrosis and TGFBR1 signaling. The combination mechanism of Rg3 and TGFBR1 was explored by surface plasmon resonance imaging (SPRi). Moreover, myocardial Tgfbr1-deficient mice and TGFBR1 adenovirus were adopted to confirm the pharmacological mechanism of Rg3. Results: In vivo experiments, Rg3 ameliorated myocardial fibrosis and hypertrophy and enhanced cardiac function. Rg3-TGFBR1 had the 1.78×10^-7 M equilibrium dissociation constant based on SPRi analysis, and Rg3 inhibited the activation of TGFBR1/Smads signaling dose-dependently. Cardiac-specific Tgfbr1 knockdown abolished Rg3's protection against myocardial fibrosis post-MI. In addition, Rg3 downregulated the TGF-β1-mediated CFs growth together with collagen production in vitro through TGFBR1 signaling. Moreover, TGFBR1 adenovirus partially blocked the inhibitory effect of Rg3. Conclusion: Rg3 improves myocardial fibrosis and cardiac function through suppressing CFs proliferation along with collagen deposition by inactivation of TGFBR1 pathway.

The sequence of ginseng peptide gene was designed and synthesized by the solid phase plasmid pUC19. Escherichia coli JM101 cells were transformed with above hybrid plasmids. Ampicillin resistant transformants were screened and identified by in situ colony hybridization and Southern blot techinques. Finally the gene sequencing was done by the Sanger dideoxy method using primer extension.

Transposon Tn5 was used to induce random insertional mutations in Bradyrhizobium japonicum, a soybean endosymbiont. By genomic Southern blot analysis, transposition events were found to have occurred randomly throughout the B. japonicum genome. After screening 3, 626 mutants by auxotrophy test, a histidine auxotroph was isolated. Upon plant infection test, the His mutant showed a 3~4 day delay in nodule formation.

Mutants blocked at the earliest stages of morphological development in Streptomyces species are called bld mutants. We have cloned bldB gene ORF from Slividans. Genomic Southern blot analysis for main strains S.lividans, S.seoulensis, S.coelicolor A3(2), and S.griseus indicated that bldB gene is conserved in all main Streptomyces strains.(omitted)

HIV는 ELISA나 WB에 의해 항체가 검출되기 수개월 혹은 수 년전에도 proviral DNA 상태로 감염된 세포의 chromosome내에 존재하는 것이 주지의 사실이다. 그동안 Southern blot, in situ hybridization등에 의해 이 proviral DNA를 검출하려는 연구가 진행되어 왔으나 lymphocyte $10^{4}$-$10^{6}$개 중 1개가 감염되어 있으며 lymphocyte chromosomal DNA에 비해 viral DNA의 양이 미량이므로 검출하기에는 민감도가 낮은 문제점이 있다. 본 고에서는 근래 개발되어 널리 사용되고 있는 polymerase chain reaction(PCR)을 이용한 HIV의 진단에 관해 살펴보고자 한다.

The T sergenti DNA fragments used as probes of KTS1(2.4kb) and KTS3(1.5kb) were labeled with digoxigenin-11-dUTP for the Southern hybridization. T sergenti DNAs from different geographic locations(Korea; Chonbuk, Kyungbuk, Chungnam, Kangwon, Cheju island, Japan; Shintoku, Shintoku 9209, Shintoku 9201, Shintoku 9202, Shintoku 9102) which had been digested with Pst I and EcoR I were probed by the digoxigenin-11-dUTP-labeled KTS1 and KTS3. As the results, the samples from Chonbuk, Kyungbuk, Cheju island in Korea and Shintoku, Shintoku 9209, Shintoku 9201, Shintoku 9102 in Japan were positively reacted, but the others from the other locations not reacted. In the comformation test of T sergenti DNA from different geographic locations, all of the samples were positively detected by PCR amplification.
