1845 bp의 SeMIPS cDNA를 발육종자에서 분리하고 이 cDNA의 구조와 특성을 분석하였다. 이 cDNA는 엽록체로 향하는 신호펩타이드의 아미노산 서열이 존재하지 않아서 세포질형 MIPS로 예상되었다. 또한 이 cDNA의 아미노산 서열의 유사성은 다른 MIPS와 비교한 결과 60-94%의 높은 아미노산 서열 유사성을 보여주었으며, 특히 식물끼리의 유사성이 훨씬 높았다. Northern blot분석에서 볼 때 참깨의 조직별 SeMIPS mRNA는 완숙종자, 줄기, 뿌리에서는 약하게 발현되었고, 잎에서는 비교적 강하게 발현되는 현상을 보여주었다. Yeast 돌연변이체를 통한 활성 시험에서는 SeMIPS가 myo-inositol 1-phosphate synthase의 효소활성을 가지고 있다는 실험적 증거를 얻었으며, C-말단 아미노산 20개가 효소활성에 필수적이라는 사실이 본 실험에서 검증되었다.

The sequence of 3,221 nucleotides immediately adjacent to rpsA gene encoding 30S ribosomal protein S1 of Brevibacterium ammoniagenes was determined. A putative open reading frame (ORF) of 2,670 nucleotides for a polypeptide of 889 amino acid residues and a TAG stop codon was found, which is located at a distance of 723 nucleotides upstream from rpsA gene with same translational direction. The deduced amino acid sequence of the ORF was found to be highly homologous to the DNA polymerase I of Streptomyces griseus (75.48％), Rhodococcus sp. ATCC 15963 (56.69％), Mycobacterium tuberculosis (55.46％) and Mycobacterium leprae (53.99％). It was suggested that the predicted product of the ORF is a DNA polymerase I with three functional domains. Two domains of 5 → 3 exonuclease and DNA polymerase are highly conserved with other DNA polymerase I, but 3 → 5 exonuclease domain is less conserved.

One hundred and three random complementary DNA clones representing rainbow trout intestine were par1i811y sequenced as an approach to analyze the transcribed sequences of its genome. Of the sequences generated, 60.0% of the ESTs were represented by 40 known genes. Thirty-five clones of unknown gene products potentially represented 34 novel genes. The most Bbundantly represented messages were the 28S ribosomal protein (6.5%) and beta actin (5.8%). The genes involved in ribosome formation (18%) accounted for the major gene expression. Development of EST panels representing the genes expressed in a particular tissue will be useful in determining the role of these genes in normal function and in response to developmental, hormonal, environmental and physiological changes.

The gene for isopenicillin N synthase (cyclase; IPNS) was cloned from Lysobacter lactamgenus using DNA probe amplified with primers based on the consensus sequences of isopenicillin N synthase genes of other ${\beta}$-lactam-producing microorganisms. The genomic library of L. lactamgenus using pUC18 plasmid cloned at the SacI site were screened with the PCR-generated DNA probe and three positive clones were isolated. Enzyme activities in E. coli clones were confirmed by bioassay and HPLC assay. Throughout the functional mapping, it was observed that the gene for isopenicillin N synthase is located at the 1.3-kb XhoI-BamHI fragment of insert of positive clones. Nucleotide sequencing at both ends of the XhoI-BamHI fragment revealed that IPNS of L. lactamgenus has the common amino acid sequences at amino- and carboxy-termini.

Conditional lethal mutation nup49-1 of a nuclear pore complex component gene was constructed in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. This mutation deleted one third of the essential NUP49 gene at the carboxy-terminal, but retained 13 repeats of the highly conserved GLFG domain. The nup49-1 mutant strain was viable with a slow-growth phenotype, indicating that the C-terminal is dispensable at normal growth temperature. This strain exhibited both temperature-sensitivity at 37.deg.C and cold-sensitivity at 16.deg.C. Temperature shift experiments revealed that the arrest phenotype at 37.deg.C was random in the cell division cycle. The nup49-1 mutation was tested to be recessive and is expected to be useful for the functional analysis of nuclear pore complex proteins as well as for studies of nuclear transport systems.

Recombinant adenovirus vector systems with strong promoters have been used to achieve high level production of recombinant protein. However, this overexpression system cause some problems such as disturbance of cell physiology and increment of cellular toxicity. Here, we showed a tetracycline-regulated adenovirus expression vector system. Our results showed that the expression level of transgene(p-53) was high and easily regulated by tetracycline. In addition, the maximal gene expression level of the tetracycline-controlled gene expression system was higher than that of the wild type CMV promoter system. Therefore, tetracycline-regulated adenoviral vector system could be applicable for regulatory high-level expression of toxic gene. Also, this system will be useful for functional studies and gene therapy.

The purpose of this study was to develop PEl-based gene carriers with optimal serum stability and reduced cytotoxicity. PEl is an efficient gene transfer agent with the ability of DNA condensation and endosome escape: however; use of the polymer in vivo is hampered by signigicant reduction in transfection activity by the presence of serum. Chitosan is a non-toxic. biodegradable and biocompatible polymer with hydrophilic functional groups so it may provide a physical stability against challenge by serum proteins. (omitted)

The effect of PSOD expression on lacZ-sodP fusion (pYK4) was explored in Escherichia coli sodA sodB mutants (QC774) under oxidative stress. In this system, although .betha.-galactosidase activity was not fully induced by isopropyl-1-thio-.betha.-galactosidase (IPTG) and was inhibited by glucose, functional PSOD was under lacZ promotor control and was induced by IPTC, lactose, PQ and copper isons, finally, the results show that higher PSOD expression leel was consistently importnat in defending against superoxide radicals.

생물의 종 구분에 이용하는 지표 중 체색은 특징이 뚜렷한 형태 지표로서, 어류의 종 동정에 유용한 형태형질이다. 개볼락은 한국 중부와 남부, 일본 홋카이도 남쪽 등지에 분포하는 상업적으로 중요한 어종으로, 피부에 반점의 유무 및 마킹이 있는 위치에 따라 4개의 아종으로 구분하는 복잡한 체색 특성을 갖는다. 그러나 개볼락의 다양한 체색 패턴과 관련된 유전자 탐색 및 유전자 변이 발굴 등 체색 형성에 관여하는 유전자 규명에 관한 연구는 없다. 이에 따라 본 연구에서는 개볼락의 체색 패턴 관련 유전자 발굴 및 유전자 발현 특성을 규명하기 위한 기초 연구로 체색 타입별 피부 전사체를 프로파일링하였다. 개볼락을 Wild type (반점과 marking 없음)과 Color type (반점과 마킹 모두 있음)으로 구분하였고, 피부 전사체를 RNA-seq 방법을 이용하여 분석하였다. 개볼락 피부 전사체의 발현량을 비교하여 체색 타입별 차등발현유전자 164개를 확보하였다. 이들 차등발현유전자의 기능을 Gene ontology(GO) 분석으로 확인한 결과, 2개는 molecular function, 46개는 biological process, 6개는 cellular component 기능그룹에 속하였다. 차등발현유전자 중 CTL (Galactose-specific lectin nattectin), CUL1 (Cullin-1), CMAS (N-acylneuraminate cytidylyltransferase), NMRK2 (Nicotinamide riboside kinase 2), ALOXE3 (Hydroperoxide isomerase ALOXE3), SLC4A7 (Sodium bicarbonate cotransporter 3) 등은 특정 체색 타입 특이적인 발현양상을 나타냈다. 이번 연구는 개볼락의 체색 패턴 형성에 관여하는 전사체를 탐색한 첫 번째 연구로, 체색 형성 관련 기능유전자 발굴을 위한 후보유전자로 개볼락의 체색 타입별 차등발현유전자를 확보한 것에 의의가 있다. 향후에는 이들 후보유전자의 발현양상 및 기능을 분석하여 개볼락의 복잡한 체색 패턴과 관련된 기능유전자의 특성을 밝히고자 한다.
