A phage clone containing the partial ${\alpha}_{S1}$-casein gene was isolated from a bovine genomic library by using mixed probes of ovine ${\alpha}_{S1}$-, ${\beta}$- and ${\kappa}$-casein cDNAs. Restriction enzyme mapping analysis for 14.6 kb revealed that the map was in conflict with the report of Meade et al. (1990), especially in the 3'-end fragment. Sequence analysis of 12.6 kb revealed a high AT/GC ratio (1.64); we have identified eight exon sequences according to the bovine ${\alpha}_{S1}$-casein cDNA sequence. The same exon/intron splice junction sequence was observed between these exons. We suggest that the bovine ${\alpha}_{S1}$-casein gene night contain a minimum of 18 exons and the full length is approximately 18-19 kb.

Yeast expression plasmids containing an appropriate leader sequence and bovine $\beta$-casein cDNA were constructed to produce $\beta$-casein for the study of its functional characteristics. Two kinds of expression systems for $\beta$-casein were constructed using pCGYl444 as a precursor plasmid. This plasmid is a yeast-E. coli shuttle vector which contains the chelatin promoter. The plasmid pISB202 contains the invertase leader sequence and $\beta$-casein gene. The plasmid pDEB303 contains the original bovine $\beta$-casein leader sequence gene. These two plasmids were introduced into S. cerevisiae AB116 which is a strain deficient in the major yeast proteinases. Each clone was grown in minimal media for 24 h before induction by $CuSO_4$. The cells were thus grown under expression conditions. Both strains harbouring pISB202 and pDEB303 expressed bovine $\beta$-casein. The $\beta$-casein was detected using immunochemical staining after western blot. Secretion of $\beta$-casein was detected in the culture broth. The estimated amount of secreted $\beta$-casein was approximately 50 ${\MU}g$/l.

We have studied on characterization and cheese making like mineral contents, protein composition and coagulation pattern on equine milk. At first, for contents of mineral on equine milk, It was lower in equine than bovine milk Contents of Na, Mg, P, Ca and K the major minerals, were indicated as 18.3 mg, 0.4 mg, 33.3 mg, 80.9 mg and 134.9 mg respectively by 100 g. In the distribution of nitrogen, the ratio NPN to Nt was indicated as 9.8% while that of bovine milk was 7%. And In NCN, its percentage was indicated as 45.6% shelving that Equine casein was lower than bovine. From these results, equine milk could not be applicable to cheese production since there are no coagulable nitrogen fraction such as ${\kappa}$-casein, as there aye with bovine milk. Equine milk will be more acceptable if we accept that the phylogenic affinity is near to human. It is the same as equine from the view points that monogastric, which did not contain ruminant's casein. For the rennet coagulation, equine milk was different than bovine milk. Equine milk did not coagulated by rennet after the addition of $Ca^{2+}$. But when bovine ${\kappa}$-casein was added in the presece of rennet, and $Ca^{2+}$ to equine milk, coagulation occurred. Such phenomenon was also observed by the use SEM. Verification of ${\kappa}$-casein by SDS-PACE did not existed in equine milk. The Casein of equine milk(54.4%) is similar to human milk in that casein/whey is about 1. For equine milt this can be explained because distance between casein and Ca is great, casein being lower, which result in reaction of casein with $Ca^{2+}$ because it could not activated which lasting time of coagulation is too long.

To investigate the fidelity of transgene transmission and expression, we produced transgenic mice carrying bovine $\beta$-casein/bovine grwoth hormone(bGH) fusion gene and examined transmission efficiency and expression level of the transgene in the founders and their progeny. The transgene was composed of 1.8 kb bovine $\beta$-casein promoter and 2.1 kb bGH gene. Ten transgenic mice were produced. Milk and mammary gland were collected from eight transgenic lines at 10-day lactation and a, pp.ied to Western and Northern blot analyses. The bGH expression was detected in four of them. The concentrations of bGH in milk were highly variable from 4$\mu\textrm{g}$/ml to 600$\mu\textrm{g}$/ml depending on the lines. The bGH mRNA level in mammary gland was closely correlated with the bGH concentration in milk in each transgenic line. These results indicated that bGH transgene expression was a, pp.opriately regulated in the mammary gland and secreted into milk in transgenic mice. By using two transgenic lines(#2, #7) secreting a considerable amoung of bGH into their milk, the inferitance and maintenance of transgenic phenotype were assessed in successive four generations. The mean transmission frequencies of transgene in lines #2 and #7 were 34% and 40%, respectively. The bGH concentration in milk were 80, 240, 120, 60$\mu\textrm{g}$/ml in each G0(generation 0), G2, G3, G4 generation of line #2 and 600, 1600, 860, 900$\mu\textrm{g}$/ml in each G1. G2, G3, G4 generation of line #7. These results demonstrated that bovine $\beta$-casein/bGH gene was stably transmitted from generation to generation in a Menelian fashion in trasgenic mice and consistenly expressed in their milk throughout the generations, although there was a little variation in the transmission frequency and expression level of the transgene between generations.

본 연구는 우 casein을 신속, 정확하게 분석할 수 있는 특수 면역효소분석법을 개발하였다. Biotin이 연결된 casein과 peroxidase-conjugated avidin을 사용하였으며 면역화시킨 닭의 난황으로부터 추출한 항체를 이용하여 분석하였다. Sulfo-N-hydroxy succinimido biotin을 사용하여 casein에 biotin을 연결시키고 microplate에 고정한 뒤 peroxidase-conjugated avidin을 결합시켰다. 생산된 항체는 $\alpha$-와 $\beta$-casein에 특이적이었으며, 유청단백질, IgG, 우혈청 알부민과 교차반응은 면역효소분석법과 Western blot에서 나타나지 않았다. 본 분석법의 민감도는 2ng에서 20$\mu\textrm{g}$이었으며 Standard와 시료의 분석시 뚜렷한 평행곡선이 형성되었다. Intra-assay와 Inter-assay의 변이계수는 각각 5.5와 5.7%이었다. 그리고 비유 초기의 casein량을 조사한 결과 분만전 3일경부터 급격히 상승하는 것을 알 수 있었다.

The production of therapeutic protein from transgenic domestic animal is the major technology of biotechnology. Insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) is known to play an important role in the growth of the animal. The objective of this study is construction of knock-in vector that bovine IGF-1 gene is inserted into the exon 7 locus of ${\beta}$-casein gene and expressed using the gene regulatory DNA sequence of bovine ${\beta}$-casein gene. The knock-in vector consists of 5' arm region (1.02 kb), bIGF-1 cDNA, CMV-EGFP, and 3' arm region (1.81 kb). To express bIGF-1 gene as transgene, the F2A sequence was fused to the 5' terminal of bIGF-1 gene and inserted into exon 7 of the ${\beta}$-casein gene. As a result, the knock-in vector is confirmed that the amino acids are synthesized without termination from the ${\beta}$-casein exon 7 region to the bIGF-1 gene by DNA sequence. These knock-in vectors may help to create transgenic dairy cattle expressing bovine bIGF-1 protein in the mammary gland via the expression system of the bovine ${\beta}$-casein gene.

본 연구에서는 1.7kb 및 3.1kb bovine $\beta$-casein promoter의 유전자 발현 조절능력을 알아보기 위해 1 7kb 및 3.1kb bovine $\beta$-casein promoter에 human Type II Collagen 유전자를 연결해서 DNA microinjection으로 형질전환생쥐를 생산하였다. 총 8마리의 founder생쥐(1.7kb collagen : 5마리, 3.1kb collagen 3마리)를 생산하였고 이 founder생쥐와 wild type 생쥐를 mating시켜서 $F_1 및 F_2$ 새끼를 얻었다. $F_1 및 F_2$새끼들에서 human Type II collagen 유전자의 transmission rate는 약 50%로 Mendel의 법칙에 따라 분리되어 안정적으로 유전자가 염색체에 정착되어 있음을 확인하였다. 이들 $F_1 및 F_2$새끼 중 암컷들을 임신시켜 분만 후 5-10 일경에 유선조직을 포함하여 여러 조직으로부터 RNA를 추출하여 Northern blotting 및 RT-PCR 방법을 이용하여 Type II collagen mRNA의 발현을 분석하였다. 유선에서의 발현은 1 7 kb 및 3.1 kb line별로 각각 1 line씩 발현되지 않았고, 그 외 line에서는 모두 발현되는 것으로 확인되었다. 유선에서의 Type II collagen mRNA 발형양은 1.7 kb 및 3.1 kb bovine $\beta$-casein promoter사이에서는 큰 차이를 나타내지 않았으나 1.7 kb promoter 형질전환생쥐의 경우 유선 이외 조직에서도 발현되는 양상을 나타내었고, 3.1kb promoter line에서는 유선특이적으로 발현시키는 양상을 나타내었다. 그러므로 bovine $\beta$-casein promoter의 1.7 kb와 3.1 kb 사이에 유선특이적 발현을 유도하는 조절부위가 있을 것으로 추정된다.

Transgluaminase반응을 이용하여 ATP analog들$(C^8-ATP와 N^6-ATP)$을 casein에 고정화하였다. 고정화 ATP는 hexokinase에 의해 탈인산화되어 약55%가 ATP형으로 전환되었으며, 이는 acetate kinase에 의해 역으로 인산화되어 약80%가 ATP형으로 전환 되었다. $\beta$-Casein은 $$\alpha$_s_1-casein$에 비하여 glutamine 잔기의 수가 많으며,$N^6-ATP$의 경우 이의 alkyl carbamyl기와 casein의 carboxamide기 간의 정전기적 반발에 원인이 있는 것으로 보인다. ATP는 고정화하므로써 안정성이 증대되었으며, 고정화 ATP의 km치는 유리상의 ATP및 ATP analog의 그것과 비슷하였으나, 최대속도는 감소되었다. 고정하 ATP는 반응액에서 calcium의 첨가로 쉽게 침전되어 용액으로부터 거의 완전히 회수 되므로써, 반응액으로부터의 회수분리가 가능한 이점을 가졌다.

The nomenclature of genetic variants of casein which is major protein in milk have had a lot of confusion, but now have established. Genetic variants of ${\alpha}_{s1}-CN,\;{\alpha}_{s2}-CN,\;{\beta}-CN,\;{\kappa}-CN$ have reported 8 variants(A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H), 4 variants(A, B, C, D), 13 variants ($A_1,\;A_2,\;A_3,\;A_4$, B, C, D, E, F, G, $H_1,\;H_2$, I), 11 variants(A, B, C, E, $F_1,\;F_2,\;G_1,\;G_2$, H, I, J), respectively. Their data detailed have introduced in several web sites including www.uniprot.org. The studies on genetic variants of casein from Korean native cattle have been reported only ${\beta}-casein\;A_4$ but still not established the protein sequence. The classification and distinct nomenclature of genetic variants of bovine casein were required because the development of milk science and technology have been focused in the region that have to studied biochemically such as functional foods, EMC and GMO et al.

로타바이러스는 유아와 어린 포유동물에 있어서 위장염을 일으키는 원인체로서 다양한 혈청형에 의해 발병되기 때문에 효과적인 백신 개발이 되지 않고 있다. 본 연구는 국내 분리 한우송아지 로타바이러스 S97과 JBR(Jeju island bovine rotavirus)에 $textsc{k}$-casein, GMf, sialic acid를 첨가하여 MA-104세포에 감염시켰을 때 그 억제 효과를 규명하기 위해 시행하였다. 한우송아지 로타바이러스 597과 JBR을 무혈청 Ml99배지의 MA-104세포에 감염시켜 37$^{\circ}C$에서 6일간 회전 배양하여 활성화시킨 다음, 로타바이러스 역가를 분석하였고, MA-104 세포에 활성화된 BRV를 감염시키고, $textsc{k}$-casein, GMP sialic acid를 각각 농도에 따라 첨가하여 15시간 배양한 다음 AEC 염색법으로 염색시켜 현미경 상에서 감염된 세포수를 계산하였다. 한우송아지 로타바이러스 S97과 GMR의 역가는 각각 2.5$\times$107과 2.0$\times$106 PFU/ml이었다. $textsc{k}$-casein, GMP의 농도 20001M에서 S97의 세포감염율은 97.4%와 97.44%로 나타났고, $textsc{k}$-casein, GWP의 농도 2000$\mu$M에서 JBR의 세포감염 억제율은 99.52%와 99.78%로 나타났다. Sialic acid의 농도 2000$\mu$M에서의 S97과 JBR의 세포감염 억제율은 3.85%와 3.63%로 나타났다. $textsc{k}$-casein, CU는 로타바이러스 S97과 JBR에 대해 농도 2000UM에서 97%이상의 억제효과를 나타냈으며, sialic acid는 억제효과가 거의 없었다. K-casein, GMP는 송아지뿐만 아니라 유아의 로타바이러스에 의한 설사를 억제할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.
