Pyrimidine nucleotide N-ribosidase (pyrimidine 5'-nucleotide phosphoribo (deoxyribo) hydrolase/pyrimidine 5'-nucleoude nucleosidase, EC 3.2.2.10) directly catalyzes pyrimidine 5'-nucleotide to pyrimidine base and ribose (deoxyribo) 5-phosphate. In order to clarify the best nutritional conditions for the growth and the pyrimidine nucleotide N-ribosidase production of Pseudomonas oleovorans ATCC 8062 the effects of various nutrients such as different carbon and nitrogen sources were studied. For the both the growth and the enzyme production, 2% fumarate, 1.5% peptone, 5% corn steep liquor (CSL) and 1% ammonium chloride were excellent carbon and nitrogen sources, respectively. Optimum pH, temperature, and cultivation time for the enzyme production were 7.0, $28^{\circ}C$, and 48 h, respectively. The pyrimidine nucleotide N-ribosidase of P. oleovorans ATCC 8062 was not induced by UMP and its derivatives, and was constitutive enzyme.

Salted and then washed flounder muscles with salting levels of 10%, 15% and 20% were mixed with boiled foxtail millet and spices(radish, garlic, ginger and red pepper) and fermented at $15^{\circ}C$ for 7 days. The changes of taste constituents of fermented flounder Sikhae, such as sugars, free amino acids and 5'-nucleotides, were investigated. The content of fructose decreased significantly during Sikhae fermentation, but the content of mannitol that was not detected from raw material was estimated to be $6.26%{\sim}8.97%$ in Sikhae. The content of total free amino nitrogen in the 15% salted Sikhae was 290.6 mg% and the highest value with 53.4% of its extract nitrogen. It is believed that leucine, alanine, arginine, glutamine, isoleucine, valine, glutamic acid and lysine may play an important role as the taste constituents in Sikhae. The detected 5'-nucleotides were CMP, UMP, CTP, AMP, ADP and ATP and among them the nucleotide showing the hightest level irrespective of treatment was UMP estimated to be $761.0\;{\mu}g{\sim}849.0\;{\mu}g/g$. ATP and ADP were significantly decreased in Sikhae, but CMP and CTP were significantly increased in the 15% salted Sikhae compared with those of raw material.

The objectives of this study were to examine effect of ion chip and yellow soil on the growth and physicochemical characteristics of soybean sprouts. The weight and length increased rapidly in soybean sprouts cultivated for 4 days and then the increases slowed. Ascorbic acid increased rapidly after day 6 in soybean sprouts cultivated with ionized water (I.W), $1.0\%$ yellow soil in tap water (T.W+l.0) and $1.0\%$ yellow soil in ionized water (I.W+l.0). The detected content of minerals such as Mg, Ca, K and Fe in soybean sprouts was higher than other minerals. Iron content was the highest in soybean sprouts cultivated by I.W+1.0. The detected levels of glutamic acid in soybean sprouts cultivated for 4 days with ionized water was higher than in those grown with tap water. In all soybean sprouts, nucleotides such as UMP, CMP, AMP, Hx and soluble free sugars like sucrose, raffinose, stachylose were detected, and the levels of UMP were found to be the highest among nucleotides and sucrose among free sugars.

It was found that petroleum ether extract of White Ginseng had a very slightly stimulating effect on the RNA biosynthesis of Baker's yeast, while both ethanol extract of White Ginseng(WGpet-alc) and Red Ginseng Extract(RGE) showed a significant stimulating effect on the RNA biosynthesis and its activity to change mononucleotide composition of the yeast RNA was noticeable; RGE induced a remarkable decrease of AMP, CMP and especially of UMP, however a marked increase of GMP, and it was observed that the molar ratio of GMP was 78.5 % of all mononucleotides of the yeast RNA. It is of interest that these results are closely related with the stimulating effect of protein biosynthesis of Baker's yeast cells.

As an initial effort to elucidate RNA: protein binding in a way to regulate translation initiation and phosphorylation, a cDNA encoding a double-stranded RNA binding factor (RBFII)was isolated from Hela ZAPII cDNA library by affinity screening using [$\alpha$$^{-32}$P] UMP-labeled HIV Rev-responsive element(RRE) RNA. The nucleotide sequence of RBF (or TRBP) cDNA except the 5’end. At the 5’end, This common ORF was fused in-frame to N-terminal residues of Lac-Z through a unique 138 nt sequence encoding 46residues in the case of RBFII and a 63 nt sequence encoding 21 residuces in the case of RBFI. The context of ATG appearing first in the sequences suggests that both these cDNA inserts are incomplete at the 5’end.

Future wireless systems will be required to support the increasingly nomadic lifestyle of people. This support will be provided through the use of multiple overlaid networks which have very different characteristics. Moreover, these networks will be required to support the seamless delivery of today's popular desktop services, such as web browsing, interactive multimedia and video conferencing to the mobile devices. Thus one of the major challenges in the design of these mobile systems will be the provision of the quality of service (QoS) guarantees that the applications demand under this diverse networking infrastructure. We believe that it is necessary to use resource reservation and adaptation techniques to deliver these QoS guarantee to applications. However, reservation and pre-configuration in the entire service region is overly aggressive, and results in schemes that are extremely inefficient and unreliable. To overcome this, the mobility pattern of a user can be exploited. If the movement of a user is known, the reservation and configuration procedure can be limited to the regions of the network a user is likely to visit. Our proposed Proxy-UMP is not sensitive to increase of the search cost than other schemes and shows that the increasing rate of total cost is low as the SMR increases.

Metabolic inhibitors which act in the process of pyrimidine salvage influenced on the uracil incorporation into nucleic acids of Toxoplasma. Inhibitors of dihydrofolate reductase, pyrimethamine and methotrexate, and inhibitors of thymidylate synthase, fluoro-uridine, fluoro·dUMP and fluoro-uracil, diminished isotopic uracil uptake in dose-dependent manners. Azauridine which suppresses do novo pyrimidine biosynthesis did not affect the salvage even in a relatively high dose. These results suggested that the activation of uracil salvage should be closely related with the function of TMP biosynthetic enzymes. The pattern of thymidine uptake had no differences between control HL-60 cells and Toxoplasma infected cells, which did not reject the specific proliferation of Texoplasma. It can be exploited to characterize the elects of various compounds related with the proliferation of Toxoplasma, especially its DNA synthesis. Key words: Toxoplasma gondii, uracil salvage, dihydrofolate reductase, thymidylate synthase TMP biosynthesis.

Changes of free amino acids, nucleotides and their related compounds as taste compounds during sun drying of ascidian Cynthia roretzi, were analyzed by amino acid autoanalyzer and high speed liquid chromatography. In fresh ascidian, the results showed that 5'-UMP $(12.1\;{\mu}mole/g)$ was dominant and the content of cytosine, 2', 3'-CMP, 2', 3'-GMP, hypoxanhtine, 5'-AMP,5'-IMP were 5.8, 3.4, 3.1, 2,3, 1.7 and $1.3\;{\mu}mole/g$ ondry base respectively. 5'-IMP, 2', 3'-CMP and 2', 3'-GMP tended to degrade slowly and 5'-AMP, cytosine and 5'-UMP were decreased rapidly while hypoxanthine were increased remarkably during the sun drying. In dried ascidian, the content of hypoxanthine was the highest, 7.2 mole/g on dry base, whereas that of 5'-AMP $(0.5\;{\mu}mole/g)$) and 5'-IMP $(0.9\;{\mu}mole/g)$ were lower. Glutamic acid, alanine and serine were dominant amino acid in the fresh extracts, having 22.4% (611.3mg%, on dry qase), 19.8% (540.5mg%) and 14.8% (402.8mg%) of the total amino acid content respectively. The content of tyrosine, histidine, lysine, methionine, isoleucine and valine were low, and proline, phenylalanine were detected in trace amount. The free amino acid were not changed in composition but the increase of total free amino acid was approximately 116.8mg% during sun drying. In sun dried ascidian, glutamic acid (691.0mg, on dry base), alanine (641.3mg%), serine (469.5mg%), threonine (234.8mg%) and glycine (206.3mg%) were dominant amino acid. It is believed that glutamic acid, serine, alanine, threonine, glycine and hypoxanthine play an important role as taste compounds in sun dried ascidian.

Two studies were conducted to investigate the effects of dietary nucleotides (NT) on the growth performance, hematological parameters, and innate immune responses of red seabream Pagrus major. In Expt I, six experimental diets were formulated: a control, four that contained each NT at a level of 0.15% (inosine monophosphate, IMP; adenosine monophosphate, AMP; guanosine monophosphate, GMP; and uridine monophosphate, UMP), and one with a 1:1:1:1 mixture of NTs (IMP, AMP, GMP, and UMP). In Expt II, five experimental diets were formulated that contained 0, 0.1, 0.2, 0.4, and 1.0% IMP (commercial product). Triplicate groups of juvenile (initial body weight 33.1 g) and growing (initial body weight 120 g) red seabream were fed one of the experimental diets to apparent satiation for 8 weeks in Expt I and 12 weeks in Expt II. In Expt I, fish fed diets with NT had higher growth performance than the control group. The nitroblue tetrazolium and lysozyme activities were higher in fish fed the mixed-NT diet, and lowest in the control group. In Expt II, the final body weight and feed utilization of fish fed the 0.1% IMP diet were significantly higher than those of fish fed the control or 1.0% IMP diets. Diet palatability was improved significantly when 0.1% IMP was added. The lysozyme activity was higher in fish fed diets with 0.4-1.0% than in the control group. These results suggest that supplementation of 0.15% IMP and Mixed-NTs in diet can enhance the growth and immune responses in juvenile red seabream. The optimum IMP level appears to be 0.2% in practical feed formulation for growing red seabream.
