  • Although nuclear transfer (NT) techniques are used to clone animals, its efficiency is very low. Moreover, nuclear transfer has resulted in offspring with severe developmental problems, probably due to incomplete nuclear reprogramming. Nuclear reprogramming is characterized by functional modification of the transferred nucleus to allow it to direct normal embryo development with the potential to grow to term. Although the nature of the reprogramming factor(s) in mammals is not clear, various nuclear as well as cytoplasmic components are involved in the processes. In this article we review recent data on factors involved in the nuclear reprogramming of cloned embryos.

  • A new GFP-based T-vector for cloning of PCR products was developed by using a green fluorescent protein (GFP) as a mafker. In order to facilitate the DNA inserts, multiple restriction sites, SP6 and T7 RNA polymerase promoter sites, were introduced close to the PCR DNA insertion site of a pCRGv vector. The XcmI-digested pHNT plasmid can be used to clone a 3' A-overhanged PCR DNA amplified by Taq DNA polymerase. A potential method of easing some difficulties from its use along with its cost savings proveded by this vector are likely to lead to the replacement of other T-vectors for PCR DNA cloning.

  • Clones are sets of operations which are closed under composition and contain all projections. Identities of clones of term operations of a given algebra correspond to hyperidentities of this algebra, i.e., to identities which are satisfied after any replacements of fundamental operations by derived operations ([7]). If any identity of an algebra is satisfied as a hyperidentity, the algebra is called solid ([3]). Solid algebras correspond to free clones. These connections will be extended to so-called generalized clones, to strong hyperidentities and to strongly solid varieties. On the basis of a generalized superposition operation for terms we generalize the concept of a unitary Menger algebra of finite rank ([6]) to unitary Menger algebras with infinitely many nullary operations and prove that strong hyperidentities correspond to identities in free unitary Menger algebras with infinitely many nullary operations.

  • The cDNA clone encoding the antibacterial peptide (SL-1) was isolated from the fat body of the common cutworm, Spodoptera litura, immunized with E. coli K12. The primary structure analysis revealed that its deduced amino acid sequence showed the characteristics of the cecropin family antibacterial peptides and that the amino acid residues highly conserved in the antibacterial peptides from moths and flies were also conserved, implying that SL-1 was a cecropin-like, and especially cecropin B-like, peptide. The predicted secondary structure of the mature SL-1 consists of three domains: (i) an amphiphilic ${\alpha}$-helical domain (Ile-4 to Gly-18); (ii) the hinge region (Gly-23 and Pro-24); and (iii) a hydrophobic domain (Ala-25 to IIe-38).

  • Pseudomonas sp. DJ77로부터 전보에서 클로닝한 pHENX7의 하류방향으로 약 3kb 정도를 포함하는 pYCS500을 클로닝하였다. PYCS500의 제한효소지도를 작성하고 부분적으로 염기서열을 분석한 결과 465 bp의 HindIII-ClaI절편에서 282 bp로 이루어진 하나의 open reading frame(ORF)을 발견하였다. phnM으로 명명된 이 ORF는 93개의 아미노산으로 구성된 polypeptide를 암호화하고 있었으며 계산된 분자량은 10,008 Da이었다. PhnM은 NahT, XylT, DmpQ, AtdS, PhlG, PhhQ, TbuW 등 plant-type ferredoxin 형태의 단백질과 37.7%-53.9%의 상동성을 나타내었으며 이들이 공통적으로 가지고 있는 motif가 일치하였다.

  • Trigonopsis variabilis는 버l타락탐 항생제인 cephalosporin C (ceph C)를 ${\alpha}$-keto-adipyl-7 a aminocephalosporanic acid(AKA-7 ACA)로 생변 환하는 강력한 D-amino acid oxidase 효소를 갖고 있다. 본 연구는 이 D-AAO 효소의 유전자를 추출하기 위하여 polymerase chain reaction (PCR)을 사용하였다. PCR 단편을 콜로닝하기 위하여 Taq D DNA polymerase, Klenow, T4 DNA polymerase I, Alkaline phosphatase Calf Intestinal와 T4 kinase 의 효소반응을 이용하여 4가지의 방법을 샤용한 결 과, blunt - end 의 PCR fragment 를 phosphory­l lation하고 blunt -end의 pUC18 plasmid를 dephos phorylation 한 후 ligation 한 것 이 가장 좋은 클로 닝 효율을 보였다. Ceph C에 대한 D-AAO 효소의 활성은 재조합 E. coli의 세포추출액과 permea bilized cells에서 모두 확인할 수 있었다.

  • RT-PCR method was applied to detect and clone the nucleocapsid protein (N) gene and glycoprotein (G) gene for sequencing 5 Korean VHSV isolates from cultured olive flounder, Paralichthys olivaceus. Phylogenetic analysis was performed to investigate their relationship with the VHSV strains described previously and isolated from different geographical area. Generally, VHSV strains were separated phylogenetically according to the major geographical area of isolation: Genogroup I (American type), Genogroup Il (British Isles) and Genogroup ill (European type). This study revealed that all 5 Korean VHSV isolates were belonged to Genogroup I and closely related to Japanese Obama25 type.

  • The Bacillus stearothermophilus arfI gene encoding a-arabinofuranosidase was isolated from the genomic library, cloned into pBR322, and subsequently transferred into the Escherichia coli HB101. The recombinant E. coli was selected from approximately 10,000 transformants screened by making use of its ability to produce a yellow pigment around the colony on the selective medium supplemented with p-nitrophenyl-$\alpha$-L-arabinofuranoside (pNPAf), a chromogenic substrate. The functional clone was found to harbor a recombinant plasmid, pKMG11 with an insertion of about 5 kb derived from the B. stearothermophilus chromosomal DNA. Identity of the arfI gene on the insert DNA was confirmed by a zymogram with 4-methylumbelliferyl-$\alpha$-L-arabinofuranoside as the enzyme substrate. The $\alpha$-arabinofuranosidase from the recombinant E. coli strain showed very high substrate specificity; the enzyme displayed high activity only with pNPAf among many other p- or $o$-nitrophenyl derivatives of several sugars, and acted only on arabinoxylan among various natural arabinose containing polysaccharides tested.

  • $11{\alpha}$-hydroxyprogesterone hemisuccinate-BSA를 항원으로 하여 항원량을 $50{\mu}g/head$$100{\mu}g/head$의 2 group(세마리씩)으로 나누어 BALB/c mouse에 면역첩종한 결과 후자에서 항체가의 상송이 확인되었다. 이와 동시에 항원($20{\mu}g$)과 adjuvant의 비율을 1:9로 하여 장기 접종한 결과는 $100{\mu}g$투여시 보다 항체가가 낮았다. 항체가가 확인된 clone의 culture에 의해 progesterone 단일크론 hybridoma를 생산해 이의 supernatant에 대한 분석을 실시한 결과 immunoglobulin class는 IgM이었다. progesterone 이외의 다른 steroids와의 교차반응은 매우 낮았다.
