벼도열병균 14개 균주와 벼 이외 화본과 식물 도열병균 12개 균주를 대상으로 rDNA의 ITS II 부위를 증폭하여 그들의 핵산 구조 차이를 분석함으로 도열병균 균주간 분류를 시도하였다. 5.8S rDNA의 3`-말단 부위와 28S rDNA의 5`-말단 부위의 sequence 중 5`-CCCGGGAATTCGCATCGATCGATCGAATGAAGA-ACGCAGC-3`와 5`-CCCGGGATCCTCCGCTTATT-GATATGC-3`를 이용하여 PCR 증폭을 하였을 때 벼도열병균 14개 균주는 동일한 길이의 단일 밴드를 형성하였으며 벼 이외 화본과 식물 도열병균에서는 레드톱 식물로부터 분리한 도열병균만이 나머지 균주보다 38bp가 더 큰 길이를 가진 밴드를 형성하였다. PCR로 증폭된 DNA를 HaeIII와 MspI 제한효소로 절단하였을 때 벼도열병균 레이스간에는 제한효소 절단에 의한 전기영동 밴드 형태 차이를 관찰할 수 없었으나, 벼 이외 화본과 식물 도열병균 12개 균주는 3군으로 구분할 수 있었다. 벼도열병균 90=054와 강아지풀에서 분리한 도열병균 G90-5, 기장에서 분리한 G88-4, 바랭이에서 분리한 G88-5 그리고 레드톱에서 분리한 RT 균주의 ITS II 부위의 DNA 염기서열 비교 분석에 의하면 G88-4와는 다른 HaeIII와 MspI 제한효소 위치를 가지고 있었기에 제한효소 절단에 의한 전기영동 형태가 상이하였다. 또한 RT균주는 HaeIII와 MspI위치가 존재하지 않았다.

Chinese hamster ovary (CHO)-K1 cells echibited a differential sensitivity in the process of DNA repair synthesis induced by ethyl methanesulfonate (EMS) or bleomycin (BLM) in relation to cell cycle. Two assays were employed in this study: alkaline elution and unscheduled DNA synthesis. The post-treat-ment with aphidicolin (APC), an inhibitor of DNA polymerase alpha, inhibited DNA repair synthesis induced by EMS in G2 phase, while APC did not show any effect on BLM-induced DNA repair synthesis in all phases. On the other hands, the 2', 3'-dideoxythymidine (ddTTP), an inhibitor of DNA polymerase beta, inhibited DNA repair synthesis induced by EMS or BLM in both of G1 and G2 phases. These results suggested that the involvement of DNA polymerase alpha and beta in DNA repair was dependent on cell stage or used chemical agent.

HeLa $S_3$세포에서 MMC에 의해 유발된 DNA회복합성은 농도$(0.05\\sim 0.5\\mu g/ml)$에 따른 증가를 보이지 않고 그 율도 비\ulcorner적 낮아 $0.1\\sim 0.5\\mu g/ml$ 농도에서 조사한 전 세포의 $7\\sim 9%$를 나타내고 있다. 시간 변화에 따른 실험에서는 MMC를 제거한 후 24시간까지 거의 비슷한 율로 DNA회복합성이 계속되고 있다. thymidine 상사체중 BUdR을 전처리한 군에서만이 MMC에 의한 DNA회복합성을 증가시켰다. 그러나 BUdR 또는 IUdR과 MMC를 복합처리 할 경우 시간경과에 따라 정상 DNA합성은 감소된다. 이들 결과는 MMC에 의해 유발된 DNA손상은 빠르고 느린 두단계로 회복됨을 암시하는 것이라 생각된다.

Oxidative damage to DNA can be caused by excited oxygen species, which are produced by radiation or are by-products of aerobic metabolism. Endogenous evels of 8-hydroxy-2'deoxyguanosine (8-OH-dG), an adduct that results from the damage of DNA caused by hydroxyl radical,have been detected in E. coli and S. typhimurium. Treatment of bacterial cells with various concentrations of hydrogen peroxide caused a moderate increase in the 8-OH-dG content. The enzymatic release of 8-OH-dG from asocorbate/Cu(II)-treated DNA was effected by an extract of E. coli cells. These results indicate that 8-OH-dG is formed in vivo inbacterial DNA through endogenous oxidative mechanisms and on treatment with an oxygen radical-producing agent and that it is repairable.

Small GTP-binding proteins are divided into three major group: Ras, Rho and Ypt/Rab. They have the conserved regions designed G1 to G5 that are critical in GDP/GTP exchange, GTP-induced conformational change and GTP hydrolysis. We isolated and characterized genomic DNA or cDNAfragments encoding G1 to G3 domains of small GTP-binding protein Rab and Rho from several plant species using two different PCR-based cloning strategies. Seven rab DNA fragments were isolated from 4 different plants, mung-bean, tobacco, rice and pepper using two degenerate primers corresponding to the GTP-binding domain G1 and G3 in small GTP-binding proteins. The amino acid sequences among these rab DNA fragments and other known small GTP-binding proteins shows that they belong to the Ypt/Rab family. Six rho DNA fragments were isolated from 5 different plants, mung-bean, rice, Arabidopsis, Allium and Gonyaulax using the nested PCR method that involves four degenerate primers corresponding to the GTP-binding domain G1, G3 and G4. The rho DNA fragments cloned show more than 90% homology to each other. Sequence comparison between plant and other known Rho family genes suggests that they are closely related (67 to 82% amino acid identity). Sequence analysis and southern blot analysis of rab and rho in mung-bean suggest than thses genes are encoded by multigene family in mung-bean.

허혈-재관류손상 심근세포의 DNA에서 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) 생성을 검토하였다. 흰쥐 적출심장의 Langendorff 관류 표본에서 대동맥 차단에 의한 60분 허혈후 산소가 포화된 Kredb-Henseleit용액으로 30분간 재관류 하므로서 허혈-재관류 손상을 유도하였다. 재관류 후 심근세포에서 DNA를 추출하고 HPLC(EC detector)를 이용하여 8-OHdG를 측정하였다. 실험결과 허혈-재관류 심근세포의 DNA에서 8-OHdG 함량이 증가하였으며 이는 $O_2$ 제거물질인 superoxide dismutase와 OH 제거물질인 mannitol에 의하여 방지되었다. Xanthine oxidase외 경쟁적 길항약인 allopurinol도 8-OHdG 생성을 억제하였으며 단백분해효소 억제제인 phenylsulfonylfluoride 그리고 관류액에서 칼슘의 제거 또한 허혈-재관류 심근 DNA의 생성을 방지하였다. 이상의 결과 허혈심근의 재관류시 8-OHdG 생성이 증가하며 이는 재관류 손상과 같은 산화성 심근손상을 평가하는 좋은 Index가 될 수 있을 것으로 여겨진다.

Background: DNA vaccination represents an anticipated approach for the control of numerous infectious diseases. Used alone, however, DNA vaccine is weak immunogen inferior to viral vectors. In recent, heterologous prime-boost vaccination leads DNA vaccines to practical reality. Methods: We assessed prime-boost immunization strategies with a DNA vaccine (minigene, $gB_{498-505}$ DNA) and recombinant vaccinia virus $(vvgB_{498-505})$ expressing epitope $gB_{498-505}$ (SSIEF ARL) of CD8+ T cells specific for glycoprotein B (gB) of herpes simplex virus (HSV). Animals were immunized primarily with $gB_{498-505}$ epitope-expressing DNA vaccine/recombinant vaccinia virus and boosted with alternative vaccine type expressing entire Ag. Results: In prime-boost protocols using vvgBw (recombinant vaccinia virus expressing entire Ag) and $vvgB_{498-505}$, CD8+ T cell-mediated immunity was induced maximally at both acute and memory stages if primed with vvgBw and boosted with $vvgB_{498-505}$ as evaluated by CTL activity, intracellular IFN-staining, and MHC class I tetramer staining. Similarly $gB_{498-505}$ DNA prime-gBw DNA (DNA vaccine expressing entire Ag) boost immunization elicited the strongest CD8+ T cell responses in protocols based on DNA vaccine. However, the level of CD8+ T cell-mediated immunity induced with prime-boost vaccination using DNA vaccine expressing epitope or entire Ag was inferior to those based on vvgBw and $vvgB_{498-505}$. Of particular interest CD8+ T cell-mediated immunity was optimally induced when $vvgB_{498-505}$ was used to prime and gB DNA was used as alternative boost. Especially CD7+ T cell responses induced by such protocol was longer lasted than other protocols. Conclusion: These facts direct to search for the effective strategy to induce optimal CD8+ T cell-mediated immunity against cancer and viral infection.

Oligoribonucleotides containing 8-oxo-7,8-dihydroguanosine (8-oxoG) and 8-oxo-7,8-dihydro-2'-O-methylguanosine (8-oxoG-Me) were synthesized. The base pairing properties of 8-oxoG and 8-oxoG-Me in oligoribonucleotide in cDNA synthesis by reverse transcriptases were studied. dCMP was preferentially incorporated into the site opposite 8-oxoG or 8-oxoG-Me than into other dNMPs. TMP and dCMP were inserted preferentially into sites opposite 8-oxoG or 8-oxoG by reverse transcriptases. HIV-RT did not incorporate TMP, but RAV2-RT incorporated 50% more TMP than dCMP into the site opposite 8-oxoG. In the site opposite 8-oxoG-Me TMP was substantially incorporated by HIV-RT or RAV2-RT. Thermodynamic analysis of the DNA. RNA heteroduplex containing 8-oxoG revealed that 8-oxoG and 8-oxoG-Me formed base pairs with cytidine and thymidine with similar stability. The thermodynamic parameter (${\Delta}G^{\circ}$) demonstrated that the formation of duplexes between 8-oxoG or 8-oxoG-Me and cytidine or thymidine is more thermodynamically favorable than with adenosine and guanosine. However, differences in the melting temperature and ${\Delta}G^{\circ}$'s of 8-oxoG/dC and 8-oxoG/T were much smaller than between G/dC and G/T. CD spectra showed that DNA . RNA containing 8-oxoG or 8-oxoG-Me duplexes showed similarities between the A-type RNA and B-type DNA conformations.

Aryl hydrocarbons such as 3-nitrobenzanthrone (NBA), 4-aminobiphenyl (ABP), acetylaminofluorene (AAF), benzo(a)pyrene (BaP), and 1-nitropyrene (NP) form bulky DNA adducts when absorbed by mammalian cells. These chemicals are metabolically activated to reactive forms in mammalian cells and preferentially get attached covalently to the $N^2$ or C8 positions of guanine or the $N^6$ position of adenine. The proportion of $N^2$ and C8 guanine adducts in DNA differs among chemicals. Although these adducts block DNA replication, cells have a mechanism allowing to continue replication by bypassing these adducts: translesion DNA synthesis (TLS). TLS is performed by translesion DNA polymerases-Pol ${\eta}$, ${\kappa}$, ${\iota}$, and ${\zeta}$ and Rev1-in an error-free or error-prone manner. Regarding the NBA adducts, namely, 2-(2'-deoxyguanosin-$N^2$-yl)-3-aminobenzanthrone (dG-$N^2$-ABA) and N-(2'-deoxyguanosin-8-yl)-3-aminobenzanthrone (dG-C8-ABA), dG-$N^2$-ABA is produced more often than dG-C8-ABA, whereas dG-C8-ABA blocks DNA replication more strongly than dG-$N^2$-ABA. dG-$N^2$-ABA allows for a less error-prone bypass than dG-C8-ABA does. Pol ${\eta}$ and ${\kappa}$ are stronger contributors to TLS over dG-C8-ABA, and Pol ${\kappa}$ bypasses dG-C8-ABA in an error-prone manner. TLS efficiency and error-proneness are affected by the sequences surrounding the adduct, as demonstrated in our previous study on an ABP adduct, N-(2'-deoxyguanosine-8-yl)-4-aminobiphenyl (dG-C8-ABP). Elucidation of the general mechanisms determining efficiency, error-proneness, and the polymerases involved in TLS over various adducts is the next step in the research on TLS. These TLS studies will clarify the mechanisms underlying aryl hydrocarbon mutagenesis and carcinogenesis in more detail.
