As one way to approach to cold defense mechanism in plants, we previously identified the gene for protein-tyrosine phosphatase (CaTPP1) from hot pepper (Capsicum annuum) using cDNA microarray analysis coupled with Northern blot analysis. We showed that the CaTPP1 gene was strongly induced by cold, drought, salt and ABA stresses. The CaTPP1 gene was engineered under control of CaMV 35S promoter for constitutive expression in transgenic tobacco plants by Agrobacterium-mediated transformation. The resulting CaTPP1 transgenic tobacco plants showed significantly increased cold stress resistance. It also appeared that some of the transgenic tobacco plants showed increased drought tolerance. The CaTPP1 transgenic plants showed no visible phenotypic alteration compared to wild type plants. These results showed the involvement of protein tyrosine phosphatase in tolerance of abiotic stresses including cold and drought stress.

In this work, we demonstrated a facile and effective method for deposition of metal tetraphenylporphyrin (MTPP) thin film by a combined a thermal evaporation (TE) and atomic layer deposition (ALD). For the deposition of Zn-TPP thin film, Tetraphenylporphyrin (TPP) and diethyl zinc (DEZ) were used as organic and inorganic materials, respectively. Optimum conditions for the deposition of Zn-TPP thin film were established systematically: (1) the exposure time of DEZ as inorganic precursor and (2) the substrate temperature were adjusted, respectively. As a result, we verified that the surface reaction between organic semiconductor (TPP) and metal atom (Zn) was ALD process. In addition, we calculated activation energy by using Arrhenius equation for the substrate temperature versus area change rate of pyrrolic nitrogen. The surface and interface reactions between TPP with Zn were investigated by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, Raman spectroscopy, UV-vis spectroscopy, and scanning electron microscopy. These results show a facile and well-controllable fabrication technique for the metal-organic thin film for future electronic applications.

본 연구는 항생제인 naliidixic acid (NA)에 내성이 있는 Salmonella tyhimurium에 대한 녹차폴리페놀(TPP)와 NA의 시너지적 살균효과와 세포반응을 조사하기 위하여 수행되었다. 초기세포밀도$10^7$ cell/ml의 S. typhimurium에 대한 살균효과는 $>3,500{\mu}g/ml$ TPP와 $<256{\mu}g/ml$ NA에서 조사하였다. NA 감수성인 S. tyhimurium은 $3,500{\mu}g/ml$ TPP 또는 $256{\mu}g/ml$ NA의 농도에서 6시간 이내에 완전히 제거되었으나, 동일한 조건하에서 NA 내성 S. typhimurium은 일부만이 살균되었다. 그러나 NA 감수성 인 S. typhimurium에 대한 $3,000{\mu}g/ml$ TPP과 $32{\mu}g/ml$ NA의 병용, 그리고 NA 내성인 S. typhimurium에 대한 $3,500{\mu}g/ml$ TPP과 $64{\mu}g/ml$ NA의 병용으로 5시간 이내에 완전한 살균효과를 나타내었다. 스트레스 단백질이 이들 S. typhimurium에 대한 스트레스 원으로서 TPP와 NA에 대한 반응으로 유도되었다. SDS-PAGE와 Western blot에 의하여 그 단백질들은 70-kDa의 DnaK와 60-kDa의 GroEL로 동정되었다. 스트레스에 의해 유도된 단백질은 TPP나 NA의 노출량에 비례하여 증가하였다. 주사전자 현미경 분석에 의하여 TPP나 NA에 의해 처리된 세포는 세포표면에 구멍 이 나고 불규칙적인 막대모양으로 관찰되었다.

$-24^{\circ}C$ 그리고 $-78^{\circ}C$에서 코발트 화합물인 PVP-CoTPP 즉 poly(4-vinyl pyridine)-mesotetraphenylporphinatocobalt(II)의 가역적인 산소화반응에 대해서 살펴보았다. PVP-CoTPP를 $-78^{\circ}C$에서 산소와 접촉시키면 산소분압에 따라 흡착량이 증가하여 산소분압이 700mmHg에 이르면 흡착되는 산소의 양이 Co(II)와 $O_2$가 같은 몰비로 붙는 양과 거의 비슷해졌다. 반면에 -24, $0^{\circ}C$로 온도가 높아짐에 따라 산소의 흡착량은 점점 더 감소하였다. 한편 ERR분광기에 의해 $PVP-CoTPP-O_2$화합물을 살펴본 결가 Co(II)의 전자가 $O_2$쪽으로 이동하여 수퍼옥사이드 형태의 $Co(III)-O_2^-$를 이루고 있는 것 같다

Triazolopyrimidine sulfonanilide (TP) 유도체는 널리 사용되고 있는 제초제 중의 하나이다. 우리는 TP 유도체 화합물의 골격을 이루고 있는 벤젠 고리를 pyrimidine 고리로 치환시킨 새로운 3 종류의 sulfonamide 유도체(TPP)를 합성하고, 보리에서 추출한 acetolactate synthase (ALS)의 저해 활성도를 측정한 결과 0.005 부터 2 mM 사이의$I_{50}$값을 얻었다. $I_{50}$ 값의 비교에서 pyrimidine 고리에 methyl기가 치환된 TPP 유도체는 methoxy기가 치환된 유도체 보다 높은 저해 활성도를 나타내었다. 또한 triazolopyrimidine 고리에 cyclopentano 고리로 치환된 TPP 유도체는 methyl- 및 phenyl가 치환된 유도체보다 우수한 저해 활성도를 보였다. 따라서 새로운 TPP 유도체의 제초 효력은 치환기에 의한 분자내 전자 분포 변화와 밀접한 관계가 있으나 치환기의 크기에 따른 입체적 장애 요인은 저해 활성도에 전혀 영향이 없음을 알 수 있었다.

The proposed Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) is a free trade agreement among 12 Pacific Rim countries whose joint gross domestic products (GDPs) account for 36 percent of world GDP and whose mutual trade accounts for approximately 24 percent of world trade. As for most proposed free trade agreements (FTAs), trade economists have provided ex ante computable general equilibrium (CGE) estimates to predict the trade, employment, and real per capita income effects of this agreement, such as ITC (2016). This paper-intended to complement these studies-examines the potential impacts of TPP beyond such traditional CGE estimates, taking a broader economic, governance, and historical perspective. First, we contrast these traditional CGE trade and welfare estimates that treat all firms within an industry as homogeneous with more recent CGE analyses that allow firms' productivities to be heterogeneous. We show that the latter models' trade predictions are much more consistent with ex post empirical evidence of average trade effects of FTAs. Second, empirical evidence now strongly confirms the existence of FTA "contagion." We review this evidence and show that predictive models of the evolution of FTAs indicate that the TPP should be formed. With China now having formed 12 FTAs and negotiating five new ones (including a sixteen member Asia-Pacific FTA), the United States would likely face considerable trade diversion without the TPP. Third, we examine empirical evidence on the likely further economic growth implications of FTAs by reducing firms' uncertainty over trade relations and trade policies. Fourth, we examine empirical evidence on the additional impact of FTAs on consolidating democratic institutions in countries. The TPP would likely help consolidate some of the less mature democracies. Fifth, we examine empirical evidence on the reductions of conflicts (and enhanced peace) between countries owing to the formations of FTAs. We conclude the paper noting that the potential net benefits to member countries of the proposed TPP extend well beyond the real income gains to households based upon traditional CGE models.

The drug-eluting stent (DES) implantation is a widely acceptable treatment for coronary heart disease. It was reported that iron chelator had anti-proliferative effect on human vascular smooth muscle cells (HA-VSMCs). In this study, tetraphenylporphine (TPP) was selected as an iron chelator and drug for DES. MTT assay showed that TPP had antiproliferative effect on HA-VSMCs. TPP and polycaprolactone (PCL) were coated onto stainless steel plate using a spraycoating method. From the surface morphology examination of the coated plate by SEM, smooth polymer coating layer could be observed. The thickness of coating layer could be controlled by changing repeating time of coating. From in vitro release test, sustained release of TPP was observed from plate during two weeks. Thus, TPP as iron chelator can be used as drug for stent coating because of its antiproliferative effect and sustain release profile.

In this study, we investigated changes in the macrobenthic community in Sihwa tidal flat before and after the operation of a Tidal Power Plant (TPP). In order to investigate changes in the macrobenthic community structure, field surveys were conducted at eighteen stations in 4 transect lines every September from 2011 to 2015. Mean density of macrobenthos decreased to $116ind./m^2$ in 2015 from $1,602ind./m^2$ in 2011. While the mean density of macrobenthos has decreased, species richness and biomass have gradually increased. The species diversity and SEP (Shannon-wiener Evenness Proportion) have also gradually increased over time since the operation of the TPP. The macrobenthic community in Sihwa tidal flat was divided into 4 groups on a yearly base. Before the operation of TPP, opportunistic species such as Neanthes succina and Polydora cornuta largely contributed to the structure of the macrobenthic community, while equilibrium species such as Periserrula leucophryna and Scopimera globosa contributed after the operation. With the operation of TPP, the macrobenthic community has rapidly recovered and this might be related to improvement in the quality of water and sedimentary environments as a result of an increase in water mass volume exchanged through the TPP gate.

A soluble protein from Saccharomyces cerevisiae specifically provides protection against a thiolcontaining oxidation system but not against an oxidation system without thiol. This 25-kDa protein was thus named thiol-dependent protector protein (TPP). The role of TPP in the cellular defense against oxidative stress was investigated in Escherichia coli containing an expression vector with a yeast genomic DNA fragment that encodes TPP (strain YP) and a mutant in which the catalytically essential amino acid in the active site of TPP (Cys-47) has been replaced with alanine by site-directed mutagenesis (strain YPC47A). There was a distinct difference between these two strains in regard to viability, modulation of activities of superoxide dismutase and catalase, and the oxidative damage of DNA upon exposure to menadione. These results suggest that TPP may play a direct role in the cellular defense against oxidative stress by functioning as an antioxidant protein.
