  • Lactococcus species are noninvasive and nonpathogenic microorganisms that are widely used in industrial food fermentation and as well-known probiotics. They have been modified by traditional methods and genetic engineering to produce useful food-grade materials. The application of genetically modified lactococci in the food industry requires their genetic elements to be safe and stable from integration with endogenous food microorganisms. In addition, selection for antibiotic-resistance genes should be avoided. Several expression and secretion signals have been developed for the production and secretion of useful proteins in lactococci. Food-grade systems composed of genetic elements from lactic acid bacteria have been developed. Recent developments in this area have focused on food-grade selection markers, stabilization, and integration strategies, as well as approaches for controlled gene expression and secretion of foreign proteins. This paper reviews the expression and secretion signals available in lactococci and the development of food-grade markers, food-grade cloning vectors, and integrative food-grade systems.

  • B. amyloliquefaciens의 $\alpha$-amylase 유전자가 S. cerevisiae 내에서 형질발현하는 가를 조사하기 위하여 본, 연구에서 YRp7 plasmid에 B. amyloliquefaciens amylase유전자를 cloning하여 만든 pEA24를 형질전환시켰다. 먼저 YRp7 plasmid를 이용하여 형질전환 최적 조건을 검토하여 본 바, PH 7과 8사이, 반응온도 3$0^{\circ}C$에서 40%의 polyethylene glycol(MW 4,000)을 처리한 후 2 %의 agar를 함유한 재생배지에 중층도말 하였을 때 형질전환율이 가장 높았다. 형질전환주로부터 생성된 amylase의 활성을 측정한 결과, S. cerevisiae에서 약간의 amylase활성을 나타내어 최고 B. amyloliquefaciens의 2% 정도였고, 세포외효소는 검출되지 않았다. 이들 형질전환 주가 가지고 있는 pEA24 plasmid의 안정성을 조사한 결과 YRp7보다 불안정하였으며, 추출한 DNA를 전기영동하여 그 band를 확인하였다.

  • It is remarkable that nuclear transfer using differentiated donor cells can produce physiologically normal cloned animals, but the process is inefficient and highly prone to epigenetic errors. Aberrant patterns of gene expression in clones contribute to the cumulative losses and abnormal phenotypes observed throughout development. Any long lasting effects from cloning, as revealed in some mouse studies, need to be comprehensively evaluated in cloned livestock. These issues raise animal welfare concerns that currently limit the acceptability and applicability of the technology. It is expected that improved reprogramming of the donor genome will increase cloning efficiencies realising a wide range of new agricultural and medical opportunities. Efficient cloning potentially enables rapid dissemination of elite genotypes from nucleus herds to commercial producers. Initial commercialization will, however, focus on producing small numbers of high value animals for natural breeding especially clones of progeny-tested sires, The continual advances in animal genomics towards the identification of genes that influence livestock production traits and human health increase the ability to genetically modify animals to enhance agricultural efficiency and produce superior quality food and biomedical products for niche markets. The potential opportunities in animal agriculture are more challenging than those in biomedicine as they require greater biological efficiency at reduced cost to be economically viable and because of the more difficult consumer acceptance issues. Nevertheless, cloning and transgenesis are being used together to increase the genetic merit of livestock; however, the integration of this technology into farming systems remains some distance in the future.

  • 산업적으로 lysine 발효 산업에 이용되고 있는 B. lactofermentum으로부터 lysine 생합성에 관여하는 tetrahyrodipicolinate N-succinyl transferase를 지령하는 dapD 유전자를 E. coli의 dapD 결손변이주와의 complementation test를 통하여 cloning하였다. 재조합 plamid는 3.6 kb의 DNA 단편을 함유하고 있었으며 Southern blot hybridization을 통하여 dapD 유전자는 B. lactofermentum으로부터 유래하였으며 염색체 DNA내에 single copy로 존재함을 알 수 있었다. 또한 lysine 생성량 분석을 통하여 E. coli에서 B. lactofermentum dapD 유전자의 발현을 확인하였다.
