The Jun and Fos families of eukaryotic transcription factors form heterodimers capable of binding to their cognate DNA enhancer elements. We are interested in searching for inhibitors or antagonists of the binding of the Jun-Fos heterodimer to the activator protein-1 (AP-1) site. The basic-region leucine zipper (bZIP) domain of c-Fos was expressed as a fusion protein with glutathione S-transferase, and allowed to form a heterodimer with the bZIP domain of c-Jun. The heterodimer was bound to glutathione-agarose, to which were added radiolabeled AP-1 nucleotides. After thorough washing, the gel-bound radioactivity was counted. The assay is faster than the coventional electrophoretic mobility shift assay because the gel electrophoresis step and the autoradiography step are eliminated. Moreover, the assay is very sensitive, allowing the detection of picomolar quantities of nucleotides, and is not affected by up to 50% dimethylsulfoxide, a solvent for hydrophobic inhibitors. Curcumin and dihydroguaiaretic acid, recently known inhibitors of Jun-Fos-DNA complex formation, were applied to this Jun-GST-fused Fos system and revealed to decrease the dimer-DNA binding.

고효율 실리콘 이종접합 태양전지 제작을 위한 요소기술 중 a-Si:H/c-Si 간의 계면 안정화는 태양전지 효율에 중요한 역할을 한다. 본 연구에서는 n-type 결정질 실리콘 기판을 사용하여, 소수전하들의 재결합을 방지하고, 계면 안정화를 실행하는 방안으로 실리콘 기판 습식 세정을 수행하였다. 반도체 공정에서 일반적으로 알려진 RCA 세정기법에 HF 세정을 마지막공정으로 추가하여 자연 산화막과 기타 불순물을 더욱 효과적으로 제거할 수 있도록 실험을 진행하였다. 마지막 공정으로 추가된 HF 세정에 의한 a-Si:H/c-Si 계면 안정화 효과를 관찰하기 위하여 HF농도와 HF 세정시간에 따른 소수반송자 수명을 측정하였다. 또한 HF 세정 이후 공정의 영향을 확인하기 위하여 PE-CVD법으로 a-Si:H 박막 증착 이전 실리콘 기판의 온도와 상온에서 머무는 시간에 따른 a-Si:H/c-Si 계면안정화 특성을 분석하였다. 본 실험을 통해 HF세정공정이 계면특성에 미치는 영향을 확인하였으며 실리콘 기판 습식 세정이 이종접합태양전지 특성에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다.

In this paper, we presented the synchronization module between RF shower system and RFID Reader to extend interrogating range on Mobile RFID system, Costas Loop and FPLL(Frequency/phase Lock Loop) were used. We achieved compromised range of 3MHz locking frequency, 1ms locking time and figured out remarkable Hopping frequency of the Reader. The prototype of the new designed RFID system has been tested with ISO18000-6 type-B Tag. The read range between designed RFID Reader and Tag has been measured, it increased triple times by adjusting the Shower system output level.

Usingvan der Waals (vdW) energy-corrected density-functional theory without or with self-consistent screening (SCS) effects, we calculate the adsorption energy of acetylene, ethylene and benzene on Si(100). We find that vdW interactions without SCS effects increase the adsorption energy by 0.23, 0.30, and 0.64 eV for adsorbed $C_2H_2$, $C_2H_4$, and $C_6H_6$ on Si(100), respectively. However, if SCS effects are included, this increase of the adsorption energy is reduced as 0.19, 0.24, and 0.54 eV for the three adsorption systems, respectively. The resulting adsorption energy for each system is between the values computed using the local-density approximation and the generalized-gradient approximation.

Tissue plasminogen activator (tPA) is used to lyse clots and reperfuse brain in ischemic stroke. However, sideeffects of intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) and edema limit their clinical application. In part, these phenomena has been linked with elevations in matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) in neurovascular unit. However little is known about their regulatory signaling pathways in brain cells. Here, I examine the role of MAP kinase pathways in tPA-induced MMP-9 regulation in rat cortical astrocytes. tPA $(1-10\;{\mu}g/ml)$ induced dose-dependent elevations in MMP-9 and MMP-2 in conditioned media. Although tPA increased phosphorylation in two MAP kinases (ERK, JNK), only inhibition of the JNK pathway by the JNK inhibitor SP600126 significantly reduced MMP-9 upregulation. Neither ERK inhibition with U0126 nor p38 inhibition with SB203580 had any significant effects. Taken together, these results suggest that c-jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) plays an essential role for tPA-induced MMP-9 upregulation.
