The prokaryotic molecular chaperone Hsp33 achieves its holdase activity upon response to oxidative stress particularly at elevated temperature. Despite many structural studies of Hsp33, which were conducted mainly by X-ray crystallography, the actual structures of the Hsp33 in solution remains controversial. Thus, we have initiated NMR study of the reduced, inactive Hsp33 monomer and backbone NMR assignments were obtained in the present study. Based on a series of triple resonance spectra measured on a triply isotope-[$^2H/^{13}C/^{15}N$]-labeled protein, sequence-specific assignments of the backbone amide signals observed in the 2D-[$^1H/^{15}N$]TROSY spectrum could be completed up to more than 96%. However, even considering the small portion of non-assigned resonances due to the lack of sequential connectivity, we confirmed that the total number of observed signals was quite smaller than that expected from the number of amino acid residues in Hsp33. Thus, it is postulated that peculiar dynamic properties would be involved in the solution structure of the inactive Hsp33 monomer. We expect that the present assignment data would eventually provide the most fundamental and important data for the progressing studies on the 3-dimensional structure and molecular dynamics of Hsp33, which are critical for understanding its activation process.

In the preparation of a hydroxyapatite [HAp]/gelatin [GEL] nanocomposite, the GEL matrix in aqueous solution of $H_3PO_4$ was modified by the introduction of aspartic acid [Asp], asparagine [Asn], and glycine [Gly]. The addition of Asp, Asn and Gly greatly affected the slurry formation of HAp/GEL nanocomposite and the resulting dry body showed variations in toughness with the addition of the different amino acids. The introduction of Asn into HAp/GEL nanocomposite was effective for producing the organic-inorganic interaction between HAp and GEL, and caused the increase of toughness. The formation reaction of the modified HAP/GEL nanocomposites was investigated by using XRD and FT-IR. The organic-organic interaction between the GEL matrix and the additives of Asp, Asn and Gly was confirmed from FT-IR analysis, and the organic-inorganic interaction between HAp nanocrystallites and the modified GEL matrix was also discussed, using FT-IR spectra patterns. Nanocrystallites of HAp were covalently bound with the GEL macromolecules and differently influenced by the modification species of Asp, Asn, and Gly.

Conducting polymers (CPs) are widely used as matrixes for the entrapment of enzymes in analytical chemistry and biosensing devices. However, enzyme-catalyzed polymerization of CPs is rarely used for immunosensing due to the difficulties involved in the quantitative analysis of colloidal CPs in solution phase. In this study, an enzyme-amplified electrocatalytic immunosensor employing a CP as a redox marker has been developed. A polyanionic polymer matrix, $\alpha$-amino-$\omega$-thiol terminated poly(acrylic acid), was employed for precipitation of CP. The acrylic acid group acts as a polyanionic template. The thiol terminus of the polymer was used to produce self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) on Au electrodes and the amine terminus was employed for immobilization of biomolecules. In an enzymeamplified sandwich type immunosensor, the polyaniline (PANI) produced enzymatically is attracted by the electrostatic force of the matrix polymer. The precipitated PANI was characterized by electrochemical methods.

A series of aromatic poly(o-hydroxyamide)s (PHAs) were synthesized by the direct polycondensation reaction of 4,4′-(2,3-quinoxalinedioxy) dibenzoic acid and/or 4,4′-(2,3-pyridinedioxy) dibenzoic acid with bis(o-aminophenol) including 2,2-bis-(amino-4-hydroxyphenyl)hexafluoropropane. The PHAs exhibited inherent viscosities in the range of 0.17-0.35 dL/g at $35^{\circ}C$ in a DMAc solution. These polymers showed low inherent viscosities and yielded brittle films. All the PHAs showed excellent solubility in aprotic solvents such as DMAc, DMSO, NMP, and DMF at room temperature and in less polar solvents such as pyridine and THF. However, all the PBOs were only partially soluble in $H_2SO_4$. The PBOs exhibited 10% weight loss at temperatures in the range of $537-551^{\circ}C$. The maximum weight loss temperature increased with an increase in the content of the quinoxaline-containing monomer. The residue of the PBOs showed a weight loss of 45.8-56.7% at $900^{\circ}C$ in a nitrogen atmosphere.

Understanding the mechanisms that control and concentrate the observed electrospray ionisation (ESI) response from peptides is important. Controlling these mechanisms can improve signal-to-noise ratio in the mass spectrum, and enhances the generation of intact ions, and thus, improves the detection of peptides when analysing mixtures. The effects of different mixtures of aqueous: organic solvents (25, 50, 75%; v/v): formic acid solution (at pH 3.26) compositions on the ESI response and charge-state distribution (CSD) during mass spectrometry (MS) were determined in a group of biologically active peptides (molecular wt range 1.3 - 3.3 kDa). The ESI response is dependent on type of organic solvent in the mobile phase mixture and therefore, solvent choice affects optimal ion intensities. As expected, intact peptide ions gave a more intense ESI signal in polar protic solvent mixtures than in the low polarity solvent. However, for four out of the five analysed peptides, neither the ESI response nor the CSD were affected by the volatility of the solvent mixture. Therefore, in solvent mixtures, as the composition changes during the evaporation processes, the $pK_b$ of the amino acid composition is a better predictor of multiple charging of the peptides.

Cysteine capped silver nanoparticles (Cys-AgNPs) have been synthesized by employing electrochemically active biofilm (EAB), $AgNO_3$ as precursor and sodium acetate as electron donor in aqueous solution at $30^{\circ}C$. Cys-AgNPs of 5-10 nm were synthesized and characterized by UV-Vis, FT-IR, XRD and TEM. Capping of the silver nanoparticles with cysteine provides stability to nanoparticles by a thiolate bond between the amino acid and the nanoparticle surface and hydrogen bonding among the Cys-AgNPs. In addition, the antibacterial effects of as-synthesized Cys-AgNPs have been tested against two pathogenic bacteria Escherichia coli (O157:H7) and Pseudomonas aeruginosa (PAO1). The results demonstrate that the as-synthesized Cys-AgNPs can proficiently inhibit the growth and multiplication of E. coli and P. aeruginosa.

When insoluble sericin was hydrolyzed by treatment of NaOH solution, the solubility was increased with higher treatment temperature and longer treatment time. Whereas it was decreased in addition of NaHSO$_3$. As the results of electrophoresis in sericin powder obtained by the NaOH treatment, a distinguishable band was not confirmed. Average degree of polymerizations(A.D.P.) of sericin hydrolyzed by NaOH solutions were about 19.6∼22.1 and average molecular weight(M.W.) were about 2,200∼2,500. The longer hydrolysis time increased the whiteness of sericin powder. As the results of amino acid analysis, the contents of Thr., Tyr., and Ser. were decreased in NaOH hydrolysis as compared to HCl hydrolysis. In DSC analysis, thermal deformation and pyrolysis peak located at near 230$\^{C}$ and 320$\^{C}$, respectively.

The developing agent is the materials which first acts on silver grain and make it into metallic silver by reducing reaction. There are several types in developing agent, and according to Lumiere-Andresen principle, substitution product which has amino or hydroxyl group in benzen nucleus has a developing power, but all reduing substances are not in used. In the developing effect, not only the role of developing agent but also that of assistant materials are important. But in this work, we have studied effect, change by lith developing agent which require high contrast image. We made an developing experiment after having manufactured developing solution used hydroquinone and another developing agents like chlorohydroquinone, pyrocatechol and pyrogallol as developing agent. And we added that did in addition of diethanolamine and ascorbic acid, and then we examined the possibility of use.
