  • The N-carbamoyl-D-amino acid amidohydrolase (D-carbamoylase) gene (dcb) from Agrobacterium tumefaciens AM 10 has been successfully cloned and expressed in Escherichia coli. Expression of D-carbamoylase gene under the 17 promoter in different host strains showed that the optimal expression was achieved in E. coli JM109 (DE3) with a 9-fold increase in enzyme production compared to the wild-type strain. The co-expression of the GroEL/ES protein with D-carbamoylase protein caused an in vivo solubilization of D-carbamoylase in an active form. The synergistic effect of GroEL/ES at 28$^{\circ}C$ led to 60 % solubilization of the total expressed target protein with a 6.2-fold increase in enzyme activity in comparison to that expressed without GroEL/ES and 43-fold increase in enzyme activity compared to A. tumefaciens AM 10. Attempts to express D-carbamoylase in an altered redox cytoplasmic milieu did not improve the enzyme production in an active form. The Histidyl-tagged D-carbamoylase was purified in a single step by Nickel-affinity chromatography and was found to have a specific activity of 9.5 U/mg protein.

  • We isolated two soluble forms of glutamate dehydrogenase isoproteins, GDH I and GDH II, from bovine brain. The regulation of GDH I and GDH II by phosphorylation and dephosphorylation has been examined in various conditions. There were dose- and time- dependent activation of the GDH isoproteins when phosphorylated by cAMP-dependent protein kinase. The phosphorylated GDH had 1.1 mol of covalently bound phosphate/mol of subunit and a 2-fold increased specific activity. The phosphorylated amino acid was identified as serine. When treated with alkaline phosphatase, the activities of the phosphorylated GDH isoproteins were reduced in dose and time dependent manner and returned to those of unphosphorylated enzymes. There were no significant differences between GDH I and GDH II in their sensitivities to the action of phosphorylation and dephosphorylation demonstrating that the microenvironmental structures of the phosphorylation site in GDH isoproteins are similar to each other, These results results suggest that the inter-conversion between less active form of brain GDH isoproteins and more active form is regulated by phosphorylation through cAMP-dependent protein kineses.

  • Terfenadine, antihistaminic drug, is poorly soluble in water. The purpose of this study is to investigate the possibility of using $terfenadine-{\beta}-cyclodextrin$ inclusion compound, instead of terfenadine, as the active substance of solid dosage form by improving the solubility, dissolution and anti-histaminic activity of terfenadine. The solubility and binding characteristics of $terfenadine-{\beta}-cyclodextrin$ complex in pH $1.2{\sim}6.8$ were investigated. Furthermore, the preparing method of $terfenadine-{\beta}-\;cyclodextrin$ inclusion compound was setting up and its physico-chemical characteristics such as DSC curve, solubility, dissolution and anti-histaminic activity were investigated. In conclusion, the solubility of terfenadine was increasing ${\beta}-cyclodextrin$ and with the decreasing pH. $Terfenadine-{\beta}-cyclodextrin$ inclusion compound, whose yield is almost 100%, was prepared by neutralization method. This inclusion compound was 200-times as soluble as terfenadine in pH 1.2-6.8. In addition, it had the faster dissolution and anti-histaminic activity than terfenadine. Therefore, it is used to the active substance of solid dosage form such as tablet and capsule in stead of terfenadine.

  • All-solid-state lithium batteries (ASSBs) using inorganic sulfide-based solid electrolytes are considered prospective alternatives to existing liquid electrolyte-based batteries owing to benefits such as non-flammability. However, it is difficult to form a favorable solid-solid interface among electrode constituents because all the constituents are solid particles. It is important to form an effective electron conduction network in composite cathode while increasing utilization of active materials and not blocking the lithium ion path, resulting in excellent cell performance. In this study, a mixture of fibrous VGCF and spherical nano-sized Super P was used to improve rate performance by fabricating valid conduction paths in composite cathodes. Then, composite cathodes of ASSBs containing 70% and 80% active materials ($LiNi_{0.6}Co_{0.2}Mn_{0.2}O_2$) were prepared by a solution-based process to achieve uniform dispersion of the electrode components in the slurry. We investigated the influence of binary carbon additives in the cathode of all-solid-state batteries to improve rate performance by constructing an effective electron conduction network.

  • Most autonomous mobile robots view only things in front of them, and as a result, they may collide with objects moving from the side or behind. To overcome this problem. an Active Omni-directional Range Sensor System has been built that can obtain an omni-directional range data through the use of a laser conic plane and a conic mirror. Also, mobile robot has to know its current location and heading angle by itself as accurately as possible to successfully navigate in real environments. To achieve this capability, we propose a self-localization algorithm of a mobile robot using an active omni-directional range sensor in an unknown environment. The proposed algorithm estimates the current position and head angle of a mobile robot by a registration of the range data obtained at two positions, current and previous. To show the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm, a series of simulations was conducted and the results show that the proposed algorithm is very efficient, and can be utilized for self-localization of a mobile robot in an unknown environment.

  • This paper examines nursing professionals' English abstract to learn their preferences towards tense and voice choices. A total of 24 abstracts, completed reviews to be published by the editorial board members of the Korea Industrial Nursing Association, were analyzed for the study. Each sentence in the four parts of the abstract (Purpose, Methods, Results, and Conclusion) was examined and classified into active/passive voices, and present/past/present perfect tenses. Verbs were then further identified to see which ones were commonly preferred to state the objectives of the study, methods, and to draw conclusions. Hedging expressions in Conclusion were also examined. The results of the present study revealed that Purpose was mostly (79%) stated in the past tense with slight use (17%) of the present tense in the form of 58% active and 42% passive voice whereas Methods were dominantly (96%) illustrated in the past tense with preference of mixed active and passive voice. The Results were also preferably (92%) stated in past tense and Conclusion in both present and past tense. Verbs used by these nursing professionals seemed diverse; however, hedging appeared to be narrowly limited to a few expressions including suggest and should. More diverse English hedging expressions need to be taught at least college level writing so that the EFL learners and writers can have a better understanding of presenting statements in an appropriate level of caution, confidence, or uncertainty.

  • In this study, first, transformation process of damping ratios, whose are evaluated in active control analysis, into damping matrix resulting from installed viscous dampers is illustrated. Then, a method is followed to maximize the effect of response reduction, which leads to optimum locations and size of viscous dampers using sensitivity analysis. Highly coupled nonlinearity between damping ratios and dampers makes it hard to find the optimal size of dampers. Therefore, the nonlinearity is transformed to linear problem with small increments of damping ratios and the size of dampers can be found. However, there are many cases for the size of dampers satisfying the small increment of damping ratios, so it is necessary to select minimum size using optimization technique. To determine optimum locations of dampers, dampers are assumed to be installed between the different stories and their locations are selected corresponding corresponding to the degree of damping size. Numerical examples for the frame structure and the shear wall structure show that optimum locations and size of dampers are different form each other depending on the characteristics of modal responses of the structures. The proposed method in this study can be applied to get optimum locations of active controller in the active control.
