클로닝된 Bacillus circulans ATCC21367 유래 cellulolytic xylanase 유전자(bglBC2)의 염기서열을 결정 분석하였다. 본 유전자는 1,224 bp의 407개 아미노산을 암호하는 open reading frame (ORF)으로 구성되어 있었으며 염기서열로부터 산출된 유전자의 분자량은 45 kDa으로 효소의 SDS-PAGE로부터 측정된 분자량과 일치하였다. ATG 개시 코돈의 9bp 위쪽에 Shine-Dalgarno (SD) 서열로 추정되는 5'-AAAGGAG-3' 서열이 확인되었고 그 상단에 promoter로 추정되는 -35 서열(TTTACA)과 -10 서열(TATACT)이 위치하고 있었으며, 이는 B. subtilis promoter consensus sequence와 유사하였다. 한편, 이 효소의 아미노산 서열은 이미 보고된 B. circulans KSM-N257의 alkaline $endo-\beta-1,4-glucanase$와는 97%, B. circulans WL-12의 $endo-\beta-1,3-1,4-glucanase$와는 75%, Bacillus sp. KSM-330의 $endo-\beta-1,4-glucanase$ (cellulase)와는 45%의 유사성을 나타내었다. 또한 bglBCS 염기서 열의 정보를 GenBank에 등록하였으며 등록번호는 Ar269256이다.

The hydrophobic spores of Streptomyces sp. AA8321 isolated from the Antarctic coast displayed demulsification ability. The aerial spores demulsified an emulsion of kerosene/$0.2\%$ Triton X-100 (2:1, v/v) to $50\%$ and $95\%$ within 1 min contact at the concentrations of $5.0{\times}10^7$ and $1.0{\times}10^8$ spores/ml, respectively. A cold shock protein (csp) gene was cloned from the hydrophobic spore- producing Streptomyces sp. AA8321 using PCR. It encoded a low molecular protein with 68 amino acids showing very low homology with previously reported csp genes. Only the sequence of the first six amino acids was just the same and yet others were different. RNA blot analysis indicated that the csp gene was induced by cold shock, i.e., transferring from $30^{\circ}C$ to $10^{\circ}C$, and this cold shock response proposed that the isolated gene be a new type of csp gene.

Kinesin은 Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Aspergillus nidulans, Drosophila melanogaster 등에서 발견 되었으며 dynein 과 더불어 세포분열 과정중 chromosome 의 이동과 spindle pole 의 분리에 관련된 것으로 알려져 있다. 본 연구에서는 기존에 발견된 kinesin 유사 유전자의 homology 가 많은 motor domain을 이용하여 primer를 합성한 후 이를 이용하여 Schizosaccharomyces pombe 로부터 kinesin heavy chain 의 유전자를 클론하였다. 염기서열을 결정한 결과 2496 bp의 해독틀을 가지고 있으며 832개의 아미노산으로 이루어진 분자량이 96 kd의 kinesin heavy chain을 암호화하는 것이 밝혀졌다. 기존에 밝혀진 다른 organism 의 kinesin 과 서열을 비교한 결과 새로이 클론된 S.pombe 의 kinesin 은 C-terminal motor subfamily 에 속함이 밝혀졌다.

A 3, 346 bp of the cdd upstream region in Bacillus subtilis was sequenced from the pSO1 (Song BH and J Neuhard. 1989. Mol. Gen. Genet 216: 462-468) and sequence homology was searched to the known genes in Genbank and European Molecular Biology Laboratory databanks. Five complete and one truncated putative coding sequences deduced from the nucleotide sequence were found through the ORF searching by Genetyx and Macvector software, and one of them was identified as the dgk (diacylglycerol kinase) gene and another, a truncated one, as the phoH (phosphate starvation-inducible gene) gene. The B. subtilis dgk gene, having a role for response to several environmental stress signals, revealed an open reading frame of 134 amino acids with 43.1% of sequence identity to the Streptococcus mutans dgk gene. The carboxy terminal 59 residues of the truncated phoH gene showed 52.7% and 34.5% of sequence identity in amino acids with the corresponding genes of Mycobacterium leprae and Escherichia coli. The four remaining coding sequences consisting of 115, 421, 91, and 91 residues were thought to be unknown ORFs because they have no significant similarity to known genes.

Luteinizing Hormone Releasing Hormone (LHRH) is composed of 10 amino acids, and is best known as a neurotransmitter. Because of the 80% homology in animals, much more concerns have focused on the substances that have similar functions or can control LHRH. Ni, Cu-LHRH complexes were synthesized. The degree of complexation was monitored by $^1H,\;^{13}C$-NMR chemical shifts, and final products were identified by ESI-Mass spectrum. Solution-state structure determination of Ni-LHRH complex was accomplished by using NMR results and NMR-based distance geometry (DG). Interproton distances from nuclear Overhauser effect spectroscopy (NOESY) were utilized for the molecular structure determination. Results were compared with previous structures obtained from energy minimization and other spectroscopic methods. Structure obtained in this study has a cyclic conformation which is similar to that of energy minimized, and exhibits a specific a-helical turn with residue numbers (2~7) out of 10 amino acids. Comparison of chemical shifts and EPR studies of Ni, Cu-LHRH complexes exhibit that Ni-LHRH complex has same binding sites with the 4-coordination mode as in Zn-LHRH complex.

A cDNA clone coding for ribosomal protein 46 (rp46) which is a component of 60S ribosomal large subunit has been identified from Drosophila melanogaster. A cDNA clone encoding S. cerevisiae rp46 was used as a probe to screen a Drosophila larvae cDNA library. The DNA sequence analysis revealed that the cDNA coding for Drosophils rp46 contains a complete reading frame of 153 nucleotides coding for 51 amino acids. The deduced amino acid sequence showed 71-75% homology with those of other eukaryotic organisms. Northern blot analysis showed that about 1-kb rp46 transcripts are abundant throughout fly development. Whole mount embryonic mRNA in situ hybridization also showed no preferential distribution of the transcripts to any specific region. The chromosomal in situ hybridization revealed that the identified gene is localized at position 60C on the right arm of the second polytene chromosome with a possibility of single copy.

Poly(A)+ RNA was selected from Canavalia lineata root nodule RNA through oligo(dT) cellulose column and used for construction of a cDNA library using λgt10-EcoRI arms. The size of the library was 7.2$\times$105 pfu/mL. A full length leghemoglobin (Lb) cDNA clone, pCILb1(687 bp) isolated with soybean Lb probe, contained one open reading frame (ORF) of 447 bp with 54 bp plus 186 bp at 5' and 3' untranslated region, respectively. A consensus sequence of plant translation start region (AAAATGGG) was found at 5' untranslated region, and two polyadenylation-related sequence (AATAAA, AATAAG) and a conserved motif between them (gACTTGTT) were found upstream of poly(A)+ tail consisted of 13 (A)s at 3' untranslated region. The ORF encoded a polypeptide consisted of 149 amino acids with a molecular weight of 16.2 kD. Deduced amino acid sequences showed high degree of homology values with those of other Lbs ranging from 66% (Casuarina glauca) to 85% (Glycine max).

The ddh gene encoding meso-diaminopimelate (meso-DAP)-dehydrogenase (DDH) in Brevibacterium lactofermentum was isolated by complementation of the Escherichia coli dapD mutation. It was supposed from subcloning experiments and complementation tests that the evidence for DDH activity appeared in about 2.5 kb Xhol fragmented genome. The 2.5 kb Xhol fragment containing the ddh gene was sequenced, and an open reading frame of 960 bp encoding a polypeptide comprising 320 amino acids was found. Computer analysis indicated that the deduced amino acid of the B. lactofermentum ddh gene showed a high homology with that of the Corynebacterium glutamicum ddh gene.

To understand the functional roles of the neuron-specific $\beta$-subunit of large-conductance calcium-activated potassium ($BK_{Ca}$) channel, we isolate the full-length complementary DNA of $\beta$4-subunit from rat brain library and investigated its effects on the function of $\alpha$-subunit (Slo). The deduced amino acid sequence of rat $\beta$4 (r$\beta$4), 210 amino acids in length, was closely related to those of $\beta$4 subunits in other mammalian species but showed only a limited sequence homology to the other $\beta$-subunits, $\beta$1 to $\beta$3.(omitted)d)
