To find antitumor components in Korean basidiomycetes, the carpophores of Armillariella mellea which were collected in Gyeong Gi Province were extracted with distilled water at $90{\sim}100^{\circ}C$ for eight hours. The hot water extract was concentrated under reduced pressure, mixed with three-fold volumes of ethanol and allowed to stand at $4^{\circ}C$ overnight. The precipitate was centrifugated and lyophilized to yield a protein-polysaccharide fraction. It was examined for antitumor activity against sarcoma 180 implanted in ICR mice. The fraction showed 75.7%, 83.9%, and 94.1% of tumor inhibition ratios at the doses of 10, 20 and 50 mg/kg/day, respectively. The chemical analysis of the fraction showed that it contained a polysaccharide(41.3%) and a protein (35.0%). The hydrolyzates of the polysaccharide moiety contained fucose (4.5%), xylose (1.1%), galactose (17.4%), glucose (55.4%), mannose(19.4%), and one unknown monosaccharide. The protein moiety contained seventeen amino acids. The protein-polysaccharide from A. mellea was administered, i.p., to mice and caused an influx of polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMN) at $5{\sim}24$ hours which was followed by an accumulation of macrophages and disappearance of the PMN at $48{\sim}72$ hours.

Chemical properties of spray-dried powders separated based on molecular weight from crude protein binding polysaccharide (CP-SD) of Agraricus blazei were examined. Contents of ${\beta}$-glucan in SD-1, SD-2 and SD-3 were 18.67%, 48.24%, and 37.15% respectively, and SD-2 (10-150 kDa) showed the highest molecular weight. Obtained ${\beta}$-glucans were not pure glucan, but was determined to be an acidic proteo-heteroglycan with a large amount of glucose (74.46-80.05%), galactose (8.91-15.2%), and mannose (4.9-5.46%). Composition of their amino acids was mainly aspartic and glutamic acids. FT-IR spectrum revealed SD-1, SD-2 and SD-3 were structures of ${\beta}$-1,3-glucans and ${\alpha}$-1,6-glucans at 890 and 930 $cm^{-1}$, respectively, signals of ${\alpha}$-1,6-glucans for CP-SD was not found. Useful CP-SD was recovered from A. blazei for preparation of three powder types as food materials.

To investigate antitumor components of Korean higher fungi, the carpophores of Schizophyllum commune and Auricularia auricula-judae collected in Kyeong Buk Province were extracted with hot water or 0.1N-NaOH solution. The concentrated extracts were precipitated by addition of ethanol, and the precipitates were purified by dialyzing through visking tube and polysaccharide fractions were obtained. They were found to show antitumor activity against sarcoma 180 implanted in mice. Especially, the inhibition ratio of the extract of Auricularia adicula-judae was 90.8% in the doses of 100mg/kg/day for the period of ten days. The tumor in five of the eight mice was completely regressed. The components of these aqueous extracts were found to be polysaccharide and protein. The hydrolysis of the respective polysaccharide yielded four monosaccharides. After hydrolysis of the protein fraction, 15 amino acids were identified in the respective fraction of S. commune and A. auricula-judae.

To find pharmacologically active components of Agrocybe cylin(Iracea, its basidiocarps were extracted with water. The extracts were separated by DEAE cellulose column chromatography, Sepharose CL-4B gel filtration, and Concanavalin A-Sepharose 4B affinity chromatography. Among the obtained fractions from A, cylinclracea, fraction IN which was the neutral proteinbound-polysaccharide fraction exhibited a marked antitumor activity and it was tentatively named "Cylindan". It showed about 70% of tumor inhibition against the solid form of sarcoma 180 when a dose of 30 mg/kg/day was intraperitoneally injected into ICR mice. When each fraction was examined by chemical analysis, Cylindan consisted of 85% polysaccharide, 3% protein and 1% hexosamine. Its polysaccharide moiety contained glucose, mannose, fucose and galactose and its protein moiety contained the comparatively large amounts of aspartic acid and glycine, and other 11 amino acids.

Lysozyme was covalentyl conjugated with galactomannan through a amino-carbonyl reaction between the lysine $\varepsilon$-amino groups of lysozyme and the reducing ends of galactomannan at a relative humidity of 79% and 6$0^{\circ}C$. The resulting lysozyme-galactomannan conjugate (LGC) was investigated for its antibacterial activity against Escherichia coli. Lysozyme alone did not exhibit antibacterial activity against E. coli. in contrast , significant bactericidal effect was observed for LGC, depending on the reaction temperature. The degree of conjugation between lysozyme and galactomannan was dependent on the incubation time, which affected the antibacterial efficiency against E. coli. This study demonstrated that the amino-carbonyl reaction between lysozyme and galactomannan could be a potential tool to modify lysozyme toward broadening its antibacterial spectrum to Gram-negative bacteria.

구름버섯 배양균사체와 야생 구름버섯 자실체로부터 얻은 protein-bound polysaccharide의 당과 단백질 함량을 비교하였을 때 배양균사체인 경우보다 야생 자실체의 경우가 당 함량이 더 높게 나타났으며 단백질 함량은 더 적게 나타났다. 구름버섯에서 부터 얻은 시료를 methanolysis시킨 후 HPLC로 분석하였을 때 배양균사체인 경우 4종류의 단당이 경출되었고 그중 mannose가 가장 함량이 많은 반면 야생 자실체인 경우 3종류의 단당이 경출되었으며 그중 glucose가 가장 많이 존재하였다. 구름버섯에서부터 얻은 시료에 lactose가 혼합되었을 경우 HPLC로 구별할 수 있었다. 구름버섯에서 얻은 시료의 구성 아미노산을 분석하였을 때 시료 모두에서동일한 17종의 아미노산이 검출되었다.

A protein-polysaccharide fraction was prepared from the carpophores of Laetiporus sulphureus. This fraction suppressed growth of sarcoma 180 in A-strain mice when administered i. p. To investigate the mechanism of antitumor action of this fraction, plaque assay was conducted by administrating i. p. to the mise at a dose level of 50mg/kg for five days. Ten days later, the mice were immunized with 1 * 10$^{7}$ sheep red blooc cells. The number of hemolytic plaque forming cells was significantly greater than that of the control mice. Three monosaccharides and fifteen amino acids were identified in the protein-polysaccharide fraction.

Chitosan유도체인 6-amino-6-deoxychitosan (6A6DC)은 상피세포 성장인자(EGF)를 안정화시키기 위한 하나의 당으로써, tosyl chloride, sodium azide 그리고 lithium aluminum tetrahydride와의 반응으로부터 성공적으로 제조되었다. 이것의 구조는 원소분석, FT-IR, $^1H$ NMR 및 $^{13}C\{^1H\}$ NMR에 의해 확인되었다. 6A6DC는 amino기의 치환율이 0.7로 나타났으며, $0.3{\mu}g/mL{\sim}600{\mu}g/mL$의 농도범위에서 normal human dermal fibroblast (NHDF)가 증식하는데 어떠한 세포독성도 나타내지 않았다. 따라서, 6A6DC는 자체의 세포무독성과 높은 반응성으로 인하여 단백질 분해효소로부터 EGF를 안정화시키는데 적합한 재료라고 사료된다.

Chitosan is a dietary fiber because of a linear polysaccharide composed of $\beta-(1{\rightarrow}4)$-linked 2-amino-2-deoxy-D-glucopyranose. In this study, control release system of vitamin C has been estimated in chitosan molecular network as a vitamin C carrier of controlled release. The amount of released vitamin C were decreased in higher amount of chitosan concentration. Especially, vitamin C were slowly released from chitosan solution in dialysis membrane when compared with vitamin C solution alone in dialysis membrane. These result assumed that chitosan driving force is dependent on chitosan molecular weight and cationic property of amino group with anionic property of vitamin C.
