In order to determine the effect of the DNA repair inhibitors, cytosine arabinoside(Ara C)and 3-aminobenzamide(3AB) on the frequenceis of chromosomal aberrations and micronuclei induced by radiation. After in vitro exposure of human lymphocytes to x-ray(1-3Gy) DNA repair inhibitors, Ara C and 3AB were treated and the frequencies of micronuclei, translocation and dicentric chromosomes were analysed using FISH technique with DNA probe for chromosome 4.(omitted)

To develope the genetic source of oak wild silkworm, Antheraea yamamai, the cDNA library was constructed with poly A+ mRNA isolated from posterial silk gland of fifth instar larvae. Titer of the cDNA library was about 5.1$\times$105 pfu in total. We presumed that the titer covered almost all transcripts existed in Antherea yamamai. From cDNA library of Antheraea yamamai, fibroin heavy chain gene, which is specifically expressed from posterial silk gland of Antheraea yamamai, was screened using oligonuclotide probe specific to alanine rich motif of fibrin heavy chain gene of Antheraea pernyi. As a result, fibroin clones isolated from 5$\times$104 plaques showed the highest homolgy (95%) with that of Antherea pernyi in nucleotide of Anthereaea yamamai and Bombyx mori shows that there is no homologous sequence in the 3+ partial 채야후 region Genomic southern hybridization suggested that one copy is present. Northern hybridization showed that fibroin transcript was approximateely 9 kb in length.

Random sequencing of expressed sequence tags in roots of Chinese cabbage led to isolation of a partial cDNA clone, BR77, which encoded a putative protein kinase. Using the BR77 cDNA as a probe, we isolated a full-length cDNA encoding the Brassica campestris protein kinase 1 (Bcpk1). The Bcpt1 cDNA contained one open reading frame encoding a polypeptide of 439 amino acids. The putative polypeptide consisted of a short N-terminal region and a protein kinase catalytic domain. The catalytic domain of Bcpkl showed a high homology to cAMP- and calcium- phospholipid-dependent subfamilies of serine/threonine protein kineses. Eleven major catalytic domains in protein kineses were well conserved in Bcpk1. However, Bcpk1 contained a unique nonhomologous intervening sequence between subdomains VII and VIII, which was not found in protein kineses of animals and lower eukaryotes. Genomic DNA gel blot analysis showed that Bcpt1 genes might be present as three copies in the Chinese cabbage genome. These imply that Bcpk1 belongs to a plant-specific serine/threonine protein kinase subfamily.

In this study, a DNA chip with a microelectrode array was fabricated using microfabrication technology. Several probe DNAs consisting of mercaptohexyl moiety at their 5' end were immobilized on the gold electrodes by a DNA arrayer. Then target DNAs were hybridized and reacted with Hoechst 33258, which is a DNA minor groove binder and electrochemically active dye. Linear sweep voltammetry or cyclic voltammetry showed a difference between target DNA and control DNA in the anodic peak current values. It was derived from Hoechst 33258 and concentrated at the electrode surface through association with the formed hybrid. This suggested that this DNA chip could recognize the sequence specific genes.

세균의 RNA 중합효소에서 여러 ${\sigma}$ 인자들 간에 보존된 아미노산 서열중 2.3 부위와 4.2 부위의 아미노산 서열로부터 유 n하여 두가지의 PCR primer를 제작하였다. 이들을 이용하여 PCR을 수행하였을 때, E. coli와 Streptomyces coelicolor의 DNA로부터 예상되었던 480 bp 정도의 DNA가 증폭되는 것을 관찰하였다. E. coli DNA에서 증폭된 DNA를 클로닝하여 염기서열을 결정한 결과 E. coli의 rpoS 유전자로부터 유래하였음을 알았다. 이를 탐침으로 S. coelicolor에서 genomic DNA hybridization을 수행하였을 때, PvuII 절편 두가지 (3.5 kb, 2.0 kb) 와 SalI 절편 두가지(3.4kb, 1.5 kb)에 탐침이 결합하는 것을 관찰하였다. 3.5 kb의 pvuII 절편을 sublibrary로부터 클로닝하고, 탐침이 결합하는 1.0kb의 BamHI/HincII 절편의 염기서열을 분석하였다. 부분적으로 결정된 염기서열을 BLAST 프로그램을 이용하여 GenBank와 EMBL, PDB 등의 data library의 유전자들과 비교하여 본 결과Streptomyces속의 ${\sigma}$인자들을 비롯한 Synechococcus종, Anabaena종, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Stigmatella aurantica 등의 주된 ${\sigma}$ 인자와 높은 유사성을 보였다. 현재까지 1.2 부위와 4 부위에 해당하는 부분의 염기서열을 결정하였는데, 이 부분은 S. coelicolor에서 알려진 다섯가지의 ${\sigma}$ 인자 유전자 중 hrdA와 가장 높은 유사성을 보이며, 아미노산의 유사성이 1.2부위에서는 88%, 4 부위에서는 75%인 것으로 나타났다.

색소유전자의 전이를 통하여 새로운 색소발현체계를 가진 품종을 육종하기 위한 기초연구로 stock (Matthiola incana R. Br.)의 꽃봉오리로부터 cDNA-library를 합성하였고 screening을 통하여 anthocyanin 합성경로의 중요효소의 하나인 DFR (dihydroflavonol 4-reductase) 유전자를 분리하였다. 염기서열분석을 수행하여 분리유전자의 크기가 1450bp 이며 이중 coding region은 1029 bp 임을 확인하였다. 이미 밝혀진 다른 식물체의 DFR 유전자와 서로 염기서열의 일치성을 비교해 본 결과 외자엽식물인 옥수수와 보리와는 각각 61%를 보였으며, 쌍자엽식물인 페튜니아, 금어초, 거베라, 과꽃 그리고 카네이션 등 과는 66%-67%의 일치성을 나타내었다. 아울러 염기서열의 G/C 함량분석을 통하여 쌍자엽식물의 G/C 함량은 외자엽식물의 그것에 비해 매우 낮은 수치를 나타내었다. 분리유전자의 발현을 확인하기 위하여 인위적으로 기내에서의 전사와 해석을 수행한 결과 42-44 kd 크기의 단백질을 확인하였다. Southern blot 분석의 결과 DFR 유전자는 stock의 genome에 다른 대부분의 식물체와 유사하게 한 개가 존재하며 야생종과 돌연변이종의 stock을 분리 DFR 유전자를 probe 로 Northern blot 분석을 수행하여 돌연변이종인 lineK17b가 DFR 돌연변이임을 확인하였다.

The objective of this study was to develop a real-time PCR method for the rapid detection and quantification of the protozoan pathogen Perkinsus olseni using a TaqMan probe. For the standard, genomic DNA was extracted from $10^5$ in vitro-cultured P. olseni trophozoites, and then 10-fold serial dilutions to the level of a single cell were prepared. To test the reliability of the technique, triplicates of genomic DNA were extracted from $5{\times}10^4$ cells and 10-fold serial dilutions to the level of 5 cells were prepared. The standards and samples were analyzed in duplicate using an $Exicycler^{TM}$ 96 real-time quantitative thermal block. For quantification, the threshold cycle ($C_T$) values of samples were compared with those obtained from standard dilutions. There was a strong linear relationship between the $C_T$ value and the log concentration of cells in the standard ($r^2$ = 0.996). Detection of DNA at a concentration as low as the equivalent of a single cell showed that the assay was sensitive enough to detect a single cell of P. olseni. The estimated number of P. olseni cells was similar to the original cell concentrations, indicating the reliability of P. olseni quantification by real-time PCR. Accordingly, the designed primers and probe may be used for the rapid detection and quantification of P. olseni from clam tissue, environmental water, and sediment samples.

Coprinellus congregatus secreted a laccase isozyme when the culture was transferred to an acidic liquid medium (pH 4.1). The laccase cDNA gene (clac2) was used as a probe for cloning of the genomic laccase gene (lac2) including the promoter (Plac2). The open reading frame (ORF) of lac2 had 526 deduced amino acids and four conserved copper binding domains as other fungal laccases. Recombinant plasmid (pRSlac2p-cDNA) of lac2 cDNA with its own promoter was transformed in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Expression of the transformed lac2 gene was induced by oxidative stress ($H_2O_2$) in yeast and the survival rate of the transformed yeast strain was greatly increased when compared with that of the control strain transformed with pRS316 yeast vector.

We isolated a cDNA clone that encodes a ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase small subunit (rbcS) from spinach using a soybean rbcS cDNA as a probe. The small subunit consists of 180 amino acids including a transit peptide of 57 residues. Comparison of the amino acid sequence with those of other plant species shows a maximum of 70-80% identical residues. Southern blot analysis suggests the existence of multiple rbcS genes in the spinach genome. Northern blot analysis indicates that the rbcS gene is expressed predominantly in leaves and that the expression of the gene is induced by light.

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).
