SDS-PAGE 결과 elution pH에 따라 분리되는 band pattern은 비슷하게 2band의 양상을 보이지만, FI값을 비교하여 보았을 때 다른 pH보다 8.0에서 가장 높은 수준을 보였으므로 GFPuv/cytochrome c-552 fusion Protein의 분리 ${\cdot}$ 정제에 가장 적합한 pH를 8.0으로 정하였다.

Green fluorescent protein (GFPuv) was displayed on the surface of ethanol-producing bacteria Zymomonas mobilis using N-terminal domain of ice nucleation protein (INP) as an anchoring motif. To evaluate the ice nucleation protein as plausible anchor motif in Z. mobilis, GFPuv gene was subcloned into Zymomonas expression vector yielding pBBR1MCS-3/pPDC/INPN/GFPuv plasmid., INP-GFPuv fusion protein was expressed in Z. mobilis and its fluorescence was verified by confocal microscopy. The successful display of GFPuv on Zymomonas mobilis suggest that INP anchor motif could be used for future fusion partner in Z. mobilis strain improvement.

$Hisx_6-GFPuv-Cyt$ c fusion protein을 E. coli 균주 JM109과 BL21 각각에서 발현시킨 결과 발현온도는 $30^{\circ}C$보다 $37^{\circ}C$에서, BL21보다 JM109에서의 발현량이 더 많았다. 그러나 JM109, $37^{\circ}C$에서 발현시킨 fusion protein의 $Ni^{2+}-IDA-agarose$ purification결과 약 45kDa 부근의 fusion protein의 density가 감소되었음을 SDS-PAGE analysis을 통해 알 수 있었다. 또한 western blotting analysis를 통해 이 impurity가 degraded fusion임을 확인 할 수 있었다. degraded fusion은 BL21 균주에서 발현시킨 fusion protein에서도 생성됨을 확인하였다. 모든 결과를 종합해 볼때 $Hisx_6-GFPuv-Cyt$ c fusion protein의 발현은 IM109, $37^{\circ}C$에서 더 많았지만, BL21, $37^{\circ}C$에서 expression시킨 fusion protein이 보다 안정하다고 판단 되어진다. 향후 fusion protein이 bioelectronic device에 적용되려면 degraded fusion protein의 생성을 줄여 activity를 유지하도록 안정한 형태로 발현되어 순수하게 분리정제 되어야 하겠다.

The stability of three different kinds of pUC-derived plasmids, pDsRed, pZsYellow, and pGFPuv, was investigated in Pectobacterium strains to utilize those plasmids as tracers. All three plasmids pDsRed, pZsYellow and pGFPuv showed their specific colors in Pectobacterium strains. Especially, the plasmid pDsRed conferred bright pink colonies on the Pectobacterium strains. When the bacteria lost the plasmid pDsRed, the colonies turned white, suggesting that the plasmid could be a good marker system for Pectobacterium strains on different environmental conditions. The effect of the antibiotic pressure on the stability of the plasmid was different depending on the host bacteria. P. carotovorum subsp. betavasculorum was more sensitive to the antibiotic pressure than P. carotovorum subsp. carotovorum Pcc21. However, temperature change significantly affected plasmid stability on both Pectobacterium strains. Almost all strains lost the plasmids with the shift in temperature from $28^{\circ}C$ to $37^{\circ}C$. Presence of the plasmids did not affect bacterial pathogenicity on their own host plants. Among three plasmids, pZsYellow was not useful as a marker because the yellow fluorescent proteins from pZs Yellow were interfered with the yellow natural fluorescence of the plant tissues induced by the defense system. Since the red color of DsRed can be seen with naked eyes, plasmid pDsRed was applicable as a marker. However, the color change was slow so that additional manipulation to increase the expression speed was necessary. Plasmid pGFPuv could serve as a perfect marker without any problem, tracing the reproduction and spread of the plant pathogens perfectly.

A new constitutive episomal expression vector, pGAPZ-E, was constructed and used for initial screening of eukaryotic target gene expression in Pichia pastoris. Two reporter genes such as beta-galactosidase gene and GFPuv gene were overexpressed in P. pastoris. The expression level of the episomal pGAPZ-E strain was higher than that of the integrated form when the beta-galactosidase gene was used as the reporter gene in P. pastoris X33. The avoiding of both the integration procedure and an induction step simplified the overall screening process for eukaryotic target gene expression in P. pastoris. Nine human protein targets from the Core 50, family of Northeast Structural Genomics Consortium (http://www.nesg.org), which were intractable when expressed in E. coli, were subjected to rapid screening for soluble expression in P. pastoris. HR547, HR919, and HR1697 human proteins, which had previously been found to express poorly or to be insoluble in E. coli, expressed in soluble form in P. pastoris. Therefore, the new episomal GAP promoter vector provides a convenient and alternative system for high-throughput screening of eukaryotic protein expression in P. pastoris.
