우리나라 토양으로부터 분리된 (주와 김 2009) poly (butylene succinate-co-butylene adipate; PBSA) 분해균 Burkholderia cepacia PBSA-7, Bacillus licheniformis PBSA-8 및 Burkholderia sp. PBSA-9에서 PBSA 분해효소를 암호화하는 유전자를 분석하였다. PCR을 수행하여 B.cepacia PBSA-7과 Burkholderia sp. PBSA-9는 약 1.5 Kb, B. licheniformis PBSA-8은 약 600 bp의 lipase 유전자(lip A) 절편을 가지는 것을 확인하였다. 세 균주 모두에서 유전자의 염기서열 내 lipase box인 Gly-X1-Ser-X2-Gly와 Ala-X1-Ser-X2-Gly가 존재하였다. B. cepacia PBSA-7의 PBSA 분해효소 유전자는 family I-1 lipases와 36~40%, family I-2 lipases와는 82~92%의 높은 유전적 상동성을 보였다. 또한 B. licheniformis PBSA-8의 PBSA 분해효소 유전자는 subfamily 1-4 lipases와 64~65%의 유전적 상동성을 나타내었으나, subfamily 1-5에 속하는 lipase들과는 거의 유전적 상동성이 없는 것으로 나타났다. Burkholderia sp. PBSA-9의 PBSA 분해효소 유전자도 family I-1 lipases와 35~37%, family I-2 lipases와는 83~94%로 높은 유전적 상동성을 보여 B. cepacia PBSA-7의 PBSA 분해효소 유전자와 유사한 결과를 보였다.

A gene encoding lipolytic enzyme, lip7-3, was isolated from Bacillus sp. W130-35 isolated from a tidal mud flat. The gene encoded a protein of 215 amino acids with a signal peptide composed of 34 amino acid residues. Lip7-3 belonged to the family I.4 lipase and showed its maximal activity at pH 9.0 and 60℃. Its activity increased in the presence of 30% methanol and, remarkably, increased as well to 154.6% in the presence of Ca²⁺. Lip7-3 preferred p-nitrophenyl octanoate (C8) as a substrate and exhibited broad specificity for short- to long- chain fatty acid esters. Additionally, Lip7-3 showed a low degree of enantioselectivity for an S-enantiomer (e.g., (S)-methyl-3-hydroxy-2-methylpropionate). It efficiently hydrolyzed glyceryl tributyrate, but did not hydrolyze glyceryl trioleate, fish oil, or olive oil. Its substrate specificity and activation by the solvent might offer a merit to the biotechnological enzyme applications like transesterification in the production of biodiesel.

The study was aimed at detecting polymorphism of the fifth intron in lipoprotein lipase (LPL) gene and analyzing association between the polymorphism and productive traits. A pair of primers was designed for amplifying the fifth intron. Sequence analysis indicated that a G1171C substitution existed in Large White breed. The mutation was detected by PCR-AfaI-RFLP. Polymorphism analysis in a pig resource family showed that there existed significant effects on carcass and meat quality traits. Thoraxwaist fat thickness of BB genotype was significantly higher (14.2%, p<0.05) than that of AA on carcass traits, while BB genotype was significantly lower (3.6% p<0.01, 4.1% p<0.01; 2.3% p<0.01, 1.9% p<0.01; 1.8% p<0.01, 1.4% p<0.05) than AA and AB genotype in pH of m. Longissimus Dorsi (LD), m. Biceps Femoris (BF), m. Semipinali Capitis (SC). The allelic frequencies were also significantly different between indigenous Chinese breeds and exotic breeds. Data analyzed revealed that the mutation locus affected production traits mostly by additive effects. Based on these results, it is necessary to do more studies on LPL gene before making the LPL locus into the application of marker-assisted selection (MAS) programs.
