Mobile IP에서 사용자의 이동성을 지원하기 위해 여러 종류의 메시지 -바인딩 갱신 메시지,바인딩 요청 메시지와 바인딩 응답 메시지- 가 사용된다. 끊김 없도록 이동성 관리를 하기 위해서는 그러한 메시지가 빈번하게 교환되어야 하지만, 이는 네트워크의 부하 증가 및 이동 노드의 에너지 효율성 악화를 유발한다 따라서 서버는 사용자의 위치 추적을 수행하면서 위의 문제를 효과적으로 해결하기 위한 알고리즘이 필요하게 되었으며, 이것은 본 논문에서 주요한 대상이 된다. HMIPv6 환경에서 각 사용자는 과거이동 로그를 지역적으로 저장한 후, 주기적으로 프로파일을 만든다. 이후 어느 영역으로 이동할 때마다 그 지역에서의 예상 상주 시간을 계산하는데, 이 프로파일 정보를 이용하여 메시지의 라이프타임으로 사용하도록 한다. 물론, 프로파일에서 이동 지역별 상주 시간뿐만 아니라 도착 시간까지 고려한 경우, 보다 정확한 라이프타임 값을 얻을 수 있다. HMIPv6 환경에서 제안한 기법들과 기존 기법 사이의 성능을 비교하기 위해 바인딩 갱신 메시지의 대역폭을 측정하는 다양한 실험을 수행하였다 그 결과 이동 노드가 임의의 서브넷에서 13분 이상 상주시 $80\%$이상의 이득을 얻을 수 있었다. 즉, 기존 기법과 동일하게 사용자의 위치를 관리하면서, 바인딩 갱신 메시지 수를 획기적으로 줄임으로써 네트워크 및 이동 단말의 에너지 효율성을 크게 향상시킬 수 있었다.

A number of signaling molecules contain small pleckstrin homology (PH) domains capable of binding phosphoinositides or proteins. Phospholipase C (PLC)-${\gamma}1$ has two putative PH domains, an $NH_2$-terminal (PH1) and a split PH domain ($nPH_2$ and $cPH_2$). We previously reported that the split PH domain of PLC-${\gamma}1$ binds to phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate (PI(4)P) and phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PI(4,5)$P_2$) (Chang et al., 2002). To identify the amino acid residues responsible for binding with PI(4)P and PI(4,5)$P_2$, we used site-directed mutagenesis to replace each amino acid in the variable loop-1 (VL-1) region of the PLC-${\gamma}1$ $nPH_2$ domain with alanine (a neutral amino acid). The phosphoinositide-binding affinity of these mutant molecules was analyzed by Dot-blot assay followed by ECL detection. We found that two PLC-${\gamma}1$ nPH2 domain mutants, P500A and H503A, showed reduced affinities for phosphoinositide binding. Furthermore, these mutant PLC-${\gamma}1$ molecules showed reduced PI(4,5)$P_2$ hydrolysis. Using green fluorescent protein (GFP) fusion protein system, we showed that both $PH_1$ and $nPH_2$ domains are responsible for membrane-targeted translocation of PLC-${\gamma}1$ upon serum stimulation. Together, our data reveal that the amino acid residues $Pro^{500}$ and $His^{503}$ are critical for binding of PLC-${\gamma}1$ to one of its substrates, PI(4,5)$P_2$ in the membrane.

The small ubiquitin-like modifier (SUMO) proteins have been implicated in the pathology of a number of diseases, including neurodegenerative diseases. The conjugation machinery for SUMOylation consists of a number of proteins which are redox sensitive. Here, under oxidative stress ($100{\mu}M$ hydrogen peroxide), antioxidant ($100{\mu}M$ ascorbate) or control conditions 169 proteins were identified by electospray ionisation fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometry. The majority of these proteins (70%) were found to contain SUMOylation consensus sequences. From the remaining proteins a small number (12%) were found to contain possible SUMO interacting motifs. The proteins identified included DNA and RNA binding proteins, structural proteins and proteasomal proteins. Several of the proteins identified under oxidative stress conditions had previously been identified as SUMOylated proteins, thus validating the method presented.

Lymphoid enhancer binding factor 1 (LEF-1) is a member of the T-cell specific factor (TCF) family, which plays a key role in the development of breast endothelial cells. Moreover, LEF-1 gene has been identified as a candidate gene for teat number trait. In the present study, we detected two novel mutations (NC_010450.3:g. 99514A>G, 119846C>T) by DNA sequencing and polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism in exon 4 and intron 9 of LEF-1 in Guanzhong Black, Hanjiang Black, Bamei and Large White pigs. Furthermore, we analyzed the association between the genetic variations with teat number trait in these breeds. The 99514A>G mutation showed an extremely significant statistical relevance between different genotypes and teat number trait in Guanzhong (p<0.001) and Large White (p = 0.002), and significant relevance in Hanjiang (p = 0.017); the 119846C>T mutation suggested significant association in Guanzhong Black pigs (p = 0.042) and Large White pigs (p = 0.003). The individuals with "AG" or "GG" genotype displayed more teat numbers than those with "AA"; the individuals with "TC" or "CC" genotype showed more teat numbers than those with "TT". Our findings suggested that the 99514A>G and 119846C>T mutations of LEF-1 affected porcine teat number trait and could be used in breeding strategies to accelerate porcine teat number trait improvement of indigenous pigs breeds through molecular marker assisted selection.

Using molecular dynamics simulation method, we studied the carbon nanotube (CNT) non-covalently interacting with a polymer. As the polymer coiled around the CNT, the diameter of CNT deformed by more than 40% of its original value within 50 ps. By considering three different polymers, we conclude that the interaction between the CNT and polymer is governed by the number of repeating units in the polymer, not by the molecular weight of polymer.

This paper describes the implementation of a layout generation system for the gate matrix style to implement multi-level logic. To achieve improved layouts from general net lists, the proposed system performs flexible net binding for series nets. Also the system reassings gates by the heuristic information that shorter net lengths are better for the track minimization. By track minimizing with subdividing layout column information, the system decreases the number of necessary layout tracks. Experimental results show that the system generates more area-reduced (approximately 7.46%) layouts than those by previous gate matrix generation systems using net list inputs.

Polyvalent nanoparticle-DNA conjugates exhibit a variety of unique features such as programmable assembly and disassembly, sharp melting transitons, intense optical properties, high stability, enhanced binding properties, and easy fabrication of the surface nature by chemical and physical modification. The unique properties of nanoparticle-DNA conjugates enable one to build up a number of versatile assay schemes for the detection of various targets. In addition, nanoparticle-RNA conjugates also demonstrate great promise of therapeutic applications in the context of RNA interference when combined with polymeric materials. In this presentation, representative examples of each aspect of nanoparticle-oligonucleotide conjugates will be discussed.

The most commonly used methods for determining thyroxine binding globulin(TBG) concentration as the total thyroxine-binding capacity utilize electrophoretic seperation of serum. Although technically simple, the electrophoretic method is time consuming and is limited in the number of samples which can be run in a single assay. The author presented a single $T_4$ load ion exchange resin method as an approach to simplify the technique as with clinical practicability and results were analyzed. For construction of the standard curves, serum mixtures were diluted with barbital buffer.which effectively blocked $T_4$-binding to TBPA. For each serum dilution, a constant amount of $T_4-^{125}I$ and increments of unlabelled $T_4$ were added. After incubation in water bath, resin beads were dispensed to the samples which binded all $T_4$ not bound to TBG. The radioactivity in the supernatant was counted in the gamma scintillation counter. Each standard curve was plotted from the percent counts in the supernatant and total $T_4$ in each tube. Unknown samples were diluted to 1:40 and ran at a single $T_4$ loading concentration, and the TBG capacity of the samples was able to be read on the standard isobars. The following results were obtained. 1) Mean and standard deviation for TBG capacity in normal population was $28.6{\pm}5.09{\mu}g\;T_4/100ml$. 2) $24.9{\pm}3.87{\mu}g\;T_4/100ml$ in hyperthyroidism showed low TBG capacity comparing to normal population.(p<0.025) 3) $31.0{\pm}2.40{\mu}g\;T_4/100ml$ in hypothyroidism showed high TBG capacity tendency comparing to normal population. 4) Reversed correlationship existed between TBG capacity and $T_3$ resin uptake(r=-0.624), TBG capacity and serum $T_4$ value (r=-0.859), and TBG capacity and free thyroxine index(r=-0.623). The author assumes that this method of assay is considerably simpler in instrumentation and technique than any other assays traditionally being used, and seems to be more practical for routine clinical laboratory use.

Rifampicin is a macrocyclic antibiotic which is used extensively for treatment against Mycobacterium tuberculosis and other mycobacterial infections. Recently, a number of studies have focused on the immune-regulatory effects of rifampicin. Therefore, we hypothesized that rifampicin may influence the TLR2 expression in LPS-activated RAW 264.7 cells. In this study, we determined that rifampicin suppresses LPS-induced TLR2 mRNA expression. The down-regulation of TLR2 expression coincided with decreased production of TNF-$\alpha$ Since NF-${\kappa}B$ is a major transcription factor that regulates genes for TLR2 and TNF-$\alpha$, we examined the effect of rifampicin on the LPS-induced NF-${\kappa}B$ activation. Rifampicin inhibited NF-${\kappa}B$ DNA-binding activity in LPS-activated RAW 264.7 cells, while it did not affect IKK$\alpha/\beta$ activity. However, rifampicin slightly inhibited the nuclear translocation of NF-${\kappa}B$ p65. In addition, rifampicin increased physical interaction between pregnane X receptor, a receptor for rifampicin, and NF-${\kappa}B$ p65, suggesting pregnane X receptor interferes with NF-${\kappa}B$ binding to DNA. Taken together, our results demonstrate that rifampicin inhibits LPS-induced TLR2 expression, at least in part, via the suppression of NF-${\kappa}B$ DNA-binding activity in RAW 264.7 cells. Thus, the present results suggest that the rifampicin-mediated inhibition of TLR2 via the suppression of NF-${\kappa}B$ DNA-binding activity may be a novel mechanism of the immune-suppressive effects of rifampicin.

본 연구에서는 은이온이 이온 교환되어 있는 수처리제(Ag-Os)의 영향을 Bacillus sp. 와 E. Coli RB 797을 사용하여 연구하였다. Bacillus sp.의 성장이 E. Coli RB 797의 성장에서보다 더 은이온에 민감하게 억제됨을 보였다. 성장억제에 필요되어지는 Ag-Os양은 0.2 mg/ml 이상에서 E. Coli RB 797를 0.02 mg/ml 이상에서 Bacillus sp. 의 성장을 저해하며 Ag-Os 수처리제의 존재하에서 생존 할 수 있는 세포 수도 E. Coli RB 797이 더 많음을 보여 윗 결과와 일치함을 보였다. 세포에 bind되는 것은 몇 분안에 일어 나는 과정이며 starved cells에서도 일어나는 에너지를 필요치 않는 과정임을 Binding연구는 나타내고 있다. 또한 Bacillus sp.의 은이온 binding이 더 많이 일어남을 보여준다. 수처리제의 존재하에서 reducing substances가 생성됨을 methylene blue를 indicatr로 사용하여 관찰하였다. 이상의 결과로 이 수처리제는 E. Coli RB 797과 Bacillus sp. 에 대해 효과적이며 은이온은 빠르고 에너지를 필요로 하지 않는 과정에 의해 세포에 bind한후 세포내로 들어가 sulfur group과 반응할 것으로 사료된다.
