Kappa number and brightness were more increased with treatment of endo-xylanase than hydrogen-peroxide. In pulp bleaching process, endo-xylanse was most effective in the other enzyme treatment. Exo-xylanase was effective more than 4 unit treatment. Kappa number was tiny increased with enzyme ratio, but less than 4 unit treatment, increased with hydrogen peroxide treatment ratio. In more than 4 unit acetyl-estease treatment, Kappa number and brightness were not influenced with enzyme treatment ratio, but concentration of hydrogen-peroxide.

Acetylxylan esterase II was produced by Escherichia coli HB101 harboring the recombinant plasmid pKMG7 which contained the estII gene of Bacillus stearothermophilus. Optimal medium for the production of the acetylxylan esterase by E. coli HB101/pKMG7 was determined to contain 0.5% galactose, 1% yeast extract and 1% NaCl. The enzyme produced was purified to homogeneity using a combination of 20-50% ammonium sulfate precipitation, DEAE-Sepharose CL-6B chromatography and Sephacryl S-200 gel filtration. The temperature and pH optimum of the esterase were 45$\circ$C and pH 6, respectively. The essential amino acids for the esterase activity were found to be methionine, serine, and cysteine. Molecular weight of the esterase was determined to be 28 kDa by SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, and 120 kDa by gel filtration. This suggests that the functional enzyme is a homomeric tetramer. The esterase had an isoelectric point of pH 3.4. The N-terminal amino acid sequence of the enzyme was Ala-Leu-Phe-Glu-Ser-Arg-Phe-Phe-Ser-Glu-Val-Leu-Gly-Leu.

Platelet-activating factor (PAF) acetylhydrolase, which removes the acetyl moiety at the sn-2 position, has been found in human amniotic fluid. We purified this enzyme by ammonium sulfate precipitation, and sequential use of DEAE-Sepharose CL-6B, hydroxyapatite, chelating-Sepharose, and Mono Q column chromatographies. This enzyme exhibited broad pH optima and was unaffected by EDTA. Partially purified enzyme had a molecular weight of approximately 34 kDa on SDS-PAGE. In addition, the enzyme activity was inhibited by either diisopropylfluorophosphate(DFP) or p-bromophenacylbromide (p-BPB), suggesting that this enzyme possesses active serine and histidine residues. The enzyme showed similar activity towards PAF and oxidatively modified phosphatidylcholine, but didn't hydrolyze phosphatidylcholine or phosphatidylethanolamine with a long chain fatty acyl group at sn-2 position.

The decreased activities of liver enzymes relating to carbohydrate metabolism such as glucose- 6-phosphate dehydrogenase, 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase and acetyl CoA carboxylase of streptozotocin injected rats were significantly modified by the intraperitoneal injection of ginseng saponin mixture and/or purified ginsenosides. However, several enzymes such as pyruvate kinase, malic enzyme and glycogen phosphorylase were not modified appreciably by the saponin administration, suggesting that the effect of ginseng saponin might be depend upon individual enzymes. Examination of liver enzymes by liver professing technique using perfusion buffer containing saponin (10-3%) showed that the ginseng saponin might stimulate insulin biosynthesis as well as the related enzyme activities.

Malonate decarboxylase from Acinetobacter calcoaceticus is shown to have malonyl-CoA: acetate CoA transferase. acetyl-CoA: malonate CoA transferase, and malonyl-CoA decarboxylase activity. These enzyme activities were elucidated by isotope exchange reactions. The enzyme modified by N-ethylmaleimide completely lost its malonate decarboxylase activity, whereas it still kept CoA transferases and malonyl-CoA decarboxylase activities. The existence of CoA transferases and malonyl-CoA decarboxylase activity is clear, but their physiological significance is obscure. The catalytic reactions for two eoA transfers and malonyl-CoA decarboxylation proceed via a cyclic mechanism, which is through two covalent intermediates, enzyme-Smalonyl and enzyme-S-acetyL proposed for malonate decarboxylation of the enzyme.

Injection of bovine growth hormone (bGH) to lactating dairy cows increases milk yield and yields of milk components including fat. It is generally believed that most of the anabolic effects derived from bGH in animal tissues are primarily mediated by IGF-1. IGF-1 is a strong anabolic peptide in the plasma of animals and exerts mitogenic and metabolic effects on target cells. Contrary to most protein hormones, the majority of IGF-1 in circulation is bound to the binding proteins (IGFBPs) which are known to be responsible for modifying the biological actions of IGF-1, thus making determinations of IGF-1 actions more difficult. On the other hand, fat is a major milk component and the greatest energy source in milk. Currently, the fat content of milk is one of the major criteria used in determining milk prices. It has been known that flavor and texture of dairy products are mainly affected by milk fat and its composition. Acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACC) is the rate limiting enzyme which catalyzes the conversion of acetyl-CoA to malonyl-CoA for fatty acid synthesis in 1ipogenic tissues of animals including bovine lactating mammary glands. In addition to the short-tenn hormonal regulation of ACC by changes in the catalytic efficiency per enzyme molecule brought about by phosphorylation and dephosphorylation of the enzyme, the long-term hormonal regulation of ACC by changes in the number of enzyme molecules plays an essential role in control of ACC and lipogenesis. Insulin, at supraphysiological concentrations, binds to IGF-1 receptors, thereby mimicking the biological effects of IGF-1. The receptors for insulin and IGF-1 share structural and functional homology. Furthermore, epidermal growth factor increased ACC activity in rat hepatocytes and adipocytes. Therefore, it can be assumed that IGF-1 mediating bGH action may increase milk fat production by stimulation ACC with phosphorylation (short term) and/or increasing amounts of the enzyme proteins (long term). Consequently, the main purpose of this paper is to give the readers not only the galactopoietic effects of bGH, but also the insight of bGH action with regard to stimulating milk fat synthesis from the whole body to the molecular levels.

수계생태계에서 유기물질의 순환을 이해하기 위하여 팔당호에서 종속영양 활성도와 세균세포의 효소활성의 계절절 변화를 연구하였다. 팔당호 I 의 glucose 전환시간은 수층, 퇴적토에서 2-1,300 시간, 17-170 시간, protein hydrolysate 는 5-900 시간, 15-240 시간, acetic acid 는 4-350 시간, 15-230 시간으로 계절적인 변화를 나타냈다. Glucose, protein hydrolysate, acetate 각각의 호흡율은 수층에서 23-32%, 38-41%, 22-28%로 나타났고 퇴적토에서는 34%, 61% and 41% 로 나타났다. 이 결과로 3가지 유기물질 종류 모두가 수층보다 퇴적토에서는 높은 율로 호흡됨을 알 수 있었다. 한편 세균의 $\alpha$-glucosidase, $\beta$-glucosidase, N-acetyl-$\beta$-D-glucosaminidase, aminopeptidase 활성력을 살펴본 결과 수층에서는 효소 각각에 대해 32-44%, 31-32%, 18-34% 61-67% 의 범위를 나타내었고 퇴적토에서는 34%, 40%, 23% 65%로 나타났다.

S. marcescens QM 81466 균주는 chitin 분해 효소(1mg/Lmedium)를 선택적으로 높게 생성시킬 수 있는 균주로서, chitin을 N-acetyl-$\beta$-D-glucosa­m mine(NAG)으로 효소적 가수분해를 할 때 chitinase와 chitobiase의 두 가지 가수분해 효소계를 구 성시킨다. 본 연구에서는 이 균주의 chitinase/chitobiase 생성을 위한 chitin 입자크기에 대한 최적화와, 회분 발효계에서 이 균주의 세포 밀도 배양에 따른 두 효소 생성의 변화를 조사하여 NAG 생산성의 증대를 시도하였다. 아울러. chitin과 CM­ chitin이 chitinase/chito biase 생성비 와 NAG 생성 에 미치는 영향을 검토하였는데, CM-chitin을 colloidal 및 결정성 chitin 대신에 사용했을 때, chitinase 활성을 약 7~10U/mL 증가시켰다. 이 경우에 있어서, chitinase/chitobiase의 비는 9:1로 서 NAG의 생성량이 3.0g/L로서 높게 나타났다.

Aspergillus ficuum 유래 acetyl xylan esterase(AXEase) 유전자(AXE)를 Pichia pastoris에서 과발현ㆍ분비 생산하기 위해 AOXI promoter와 mating factor $\alpha$-1 분비신호서열 하류에 AXE를 연결한 염색체 삽입 발현계(pPICZ$\alpha$C-AXE, 4.6 kb)를 구축하였다. 이것을 SacI으로 절단한 뒤 P. pastoris의 염색체 DNA 5'AOX1 부위에 삽입시켰다. 형질전환된 P. pastoris 균주를 메탄을 배지에서 플라스크 회분배양한 결과, 배양 36시간 때의 건조균체농도는 6 g-DCW/1, AXEase 총 발현량은 77 unit/ml이었다. 최적화된 methanol과 histidine 공급방법을 채용한 유가배양시 균체농도는 97 g-DCW/1, AXEase 총발현량은 930 unit/m1로 크게 증가하였다. 효소활성의 90% 이상은 배양 상등액에 존재하였으며, 상등액 단백질의 80%이상이 AXEase 단백질(33.5 kDa)였다. 이러한 결과는 9.8 g/l의 AXEase 단백질을 배양 상등액으로 대량 분비ㆍ생산할 수 있음을 의미한다.
