A recombinant human $\alpha_{s1}$-casein was expressed as a secretory product in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Three different leader sequences derived from the mating factor $\alpha$l (MF$\alpha$l), inulinase, and human $\alpha_{s1}$-casein were used to direct the secretion of human $\alpha_{s1}$-casein into the extracellular medium. Among the three leader sequences tested, the native leader sequence of human $\alpha_{s1}$-casein was found to be the most efficient in the secretory expression of human $\alpha_{s1}$-casein, which implies that the native leader sequence of human $\alpha_{s1}$-casein might be used very efficiently for the secretory production of other heterologous proteins in yeast. The recombinant human $\alpha_{s1}$-casein was proteolytically cleaved as the culture proceeded. Therefore, an attempt was made to produce human $\alpha_{s1}$-casein using a S. cerevisiae mutant in which the YAP3 gene encoding yeast aspartic protease 3 (YAP3) was disrupted. After 72 h of culture, most of the human $\alpha_{s1}$-casein secreted by the wild type was cleaved, whereas more than 70% of the human $\alpha_{s1}$-casein secreted by yap3-disruptant remained intact. The results suggest that YAP3 might be involved in the internal cleavage of human $\alpha_{s1}$-casein expressed in yeast

In the road environment with lots of vehicles, we can increase the number of vehicles on the road (i.e., road capacity) and enhance the comfortability of drivers if vehicles are organized into platoons. In the traditional vehicle platooning mechanisms, a pre-determined set of vehicles are allowed to form a platoon and, among them, a specific vehicle is designated as the platoon leader. In this type of platoon mechanisms, platoon is limited in improving the road capacity because the vehicles allowed to involve into platooning are restricted. Therefore, in this paper, we propose an adaptive platoon formation mechanism that allows any vehicle to be a platoon leader from which a platoon is formed. In the proposed mechanism, a platoon leader is elected based on the relative velocity and location information of neighboring vehicles obtained through the periodic exchange of beacon messages among vehicles. Through the NS-3 based simulations, we show the performance of our proposed mechanism in terms of road capacity improvement.

This study is intended to look into the effects of project leader's core competencies(intellectual ability, management ability, emotional ability) on the Critical success factors(job satisfaction, organizational commitment, group cohesion) of project by environmental variables of organization. The results of this study were summarized as follows. First, the intellectual ability, management ability and emotional ability had a significant effect on the job satisfaction, organizational commitment and group cohesion. Second, the functional organization and project organization had a partial effect on project leader's core competencies. But the individual-centered organization had no moderating effect. For the project organization, all intellectual ability, management ability and emotional ability had a moderating effect on the organizational commitment. Consequently, project leader's core competencies are mechanisms to improve the job satisfaction, organizational commitment and group cohesion, and they have a different moderating effect according to the type of organization.

The TAM(Topographic Attentive Mapping) network neural network model is an especially effective one for pattern analysis. It is composed of of Input layer, category layer, and output layer. Fuzzy rule, lot input and output data are acquired from it. The TAM network with three pruning rules for reducing links and nodes at the layer is called fuzzy TAM network. In this paper, we apply fuzzy TAM network to pattern analysis of leadership type for organizational leader and show its usefulness. Here, criteria of input layer and target value of output layer are the value and leadership related personality type variables of the Egogram and Enneagram, respectively.

Studies have claimed that ESE (Early Streamer Emission) air terminals offer a vastly increased zone of protection over that of traditional lightning rods (Franklin rods) by causing the emission of an upward streamer/leader: The upward streamer/leader will propagate towards the tip of the downward leader at an early stage in the attachment process.. This paper shows the results of a performance evaluation test of a particular type of the ESE air terminal (called "ElecHippo") with a simple rod tested at the Korea Electrotechnology Research Institute (KERI). The corona emission current of the ElecHippo made by Yong-Jin Enterprise Corp. has also been measured at the Occupational Safety & Health Research Institute (OSHRI). The results show that the ElecHippo meets the French standard of NFC 17-102-1995. The results also verify the ESE performance by measuring the ion emission current generated in the discharge electrode gap as a function of the capacitance and inductance of the equipped devices. Finally, we propose a new method for grounding the system to reduce the lightning damage by combining the ESE air terminal, the early discharge earth plate, the lightning strike recorder and the surge protection device.

The purpose of this study is to verify the research model and identify the causal relationship among leader's super leadership, self-leadership, psychological empowerment, sport commitment and performance perceived by Taekwondo athletes. The subjects of the study were middle and high school Taekwondo athletes registered in the Korea Taekwondo Association in 2020 and 2021, and data from 454 people were used as final effective samples through convenience sampling. The collected data used the SPSS 23.0 version and the Amos 21.0 version to verify the hypothesis. As a result, the following conclusions were obtained. First, we discovered that the leader's super leadership had a positive impact on the athlete's self-leadership, psychological empowerment, and sport commitment. Second, we found that the athlete's self-leadership had a positive effect on psychological empowerment, sport commitment, and performance. Third, we found that athlete's psychological empowerment had a positive effect on sport commitment and performance. Fourth, we found that the athlete's sport commitment had a negative effect on performance. Therefore, this study has reminded us about importance of psychological empowerment and sport commitment for explaining the relationship between leadership type and performance perceived by Taekwondo athletes, and might contribute to the theoretical discussion of variables related to athletes' performance.

Work engagement and job burnout are crucial problems in Korea, particularly in the business environment, and they also indicate people's motivation. Online-based teams in e-business also have these issues. Especially the role of the leader in this new type of teams is more crucial for members' motivation, behavior, and performance. Contingency leadership theories posit that different situations need different traits or behaviors of a leader. For an online-based team, which is internet-based team in e-business, a leader should use specific communication strategies to enhance a team's performance and members' motivation. In an online-based team and an offline-based team, the ways in which leaders motivate members will be different. This paper suggests particular communicative strategies for leaders of online situations. Online-based team members communicate using mobile phones or IT tools, and leaders mayinfluences members in virtual meetings. Moreover, online-based leadership needs to be more entrepreneurial and risk encouraging, and less conservative than offline-based leadership. In addition, online-based leadership should be energetic, decisive, adaptable, and inspiring, and furtherutilize communication tools such as being more gregarious/talkative, assertiveness, linguistic diversity and affect. This paper explains the roles of communicative elements such as coordination, expression, direction-giving/uncertainty reduction, empathy, meaning-making, satisfaction, and competence to decrease job burnout and to increase work engagement. The purpose of this study is to suggest communication strategies' differentiated influences on work engagement and job burnout in an online-based team.

The construction industry suffers from declining productivity and lack of trust between stakeholders and among the public. Increasing technical, regulatory, environmental and ethical challenges face the sector and necessitate a new type of leader. Authentic leadership is a relatively new construct that focuses on a leader demonstrating self-awareness, relational transparency, an internalized ethical and moral perspective and balanced processing. This study uses the Authentic Leadership Questionnaire to measure construction superintendent's levels of authentic leadership and compares them to effectiveness ratings. There is a correlation between higher authentic leadership scores and effectiveness and this study concludes that authentic leaders are more effective superintendents.
