  • At local, majority of galaxies in the dense environment, such as galaxy cluster, are red and quiescent with little star-formation (SF) activity. However, a different picture emerges as we go to high redshift: (1) there exist non-negligible fraction of galaxies still forming stars actively even in dense environment, and (2) there is a significant cluster-by-cluster variation in the SF properties, such as quiescent galaxy fraction. In this presentation, we show the results of our study about the variation of quiescent galaxy fraction among high-redshift (z~1) galaxy clusters, based on the multi-object spectroscopic (MOS) observation with IMACS on the Magellan telescope. Our main result is that galaxy clusters which are connected with significant large-scale structure (LSS), well beyond the cluster scale, are more active in their SF activity, i.e., the quiescent galaxy fraction for these clusters is lower compared to the clusters which are detached from LSS.

  • Homeostatic regulation of meristematic stem cells accomplished by maintaining a balance between stem cell self-renewal and differentiation is critical for proper plant growth and development. The quiescent center (QC) regulates root apical meristem homeostasis by maintaining stem cell fate during plant root development. Cell cycle checkpoints, such as anaphase promoting complex/cyclosome/cell cycle switch 52 A2 (APC/CCCS52A2), strictly control the low proliferation rate of QC cells. Although APC/CCCS52A2 plays a critical role in maintaining QC cell division, the molecular mechanism that regulates its activity remains largely unknown. Here, we identified SCFFBS1, a ubiquitin E3 ligase, as a key regulator of QC cell division through the direct proteolysis of CCS52A2. FBS1 activity is positively associated with QC cell division and CCS52A2 proteolysis. FBS1 overexpression or ccs52a2-1 knockout consistently resulted in abnormal root development, characterized by root growth inhibition and low mitotic activity in the meristematic zone. Loss-of-function mutation of FBS1, on the other hand, resulted in low QC cell division, extremely low WOX5 expression, and rapid root growth. The 26S proteasome-mediated degradation of CCS52A2 was facilitated by its direct interaction with FBS1. The FBS1 genetically interacted with APC/CCCS52A2-ERF115-PSKR1 signaling module for QC division. Thus, our findings establish SCFFBS1-mediated CCS52A2 proteolysis as the molecular mechanism for controlling QC cell division in plants.

  • We have developed a low-power, high slew-rate OP-AMP for large size and high resolution TFT-LCDs which have 8${\mu}$A quiescent current with settling time less than 6${\mu}$sec. The proposed OP-AMP contains newly developed the driving circuit of class-AB output stage which can achieve a low quiescent current less than 8${\mu}$A and a slew-rate higher than 3.14V/${\mu}$sec.

  • Theoretical calculations of the combined radiative transfer and statistical equilibrium equation including the charge-particle conservations have been earned out for a multilevel hydrogen atom in quiescent prominences. Cool and dense models show the steep changes of population and radiation field in the vicinity of the surface, while these physical quantities remain unchanged for models with temperature of 7,300K, regardless of total densities. Ionization rate of hydrogen atom related with metallic line formation varies in considerable amounts from the surface to the center of model prominences cooler than 6,300K. However, such cool models cannot release enough hydrogen line emissions to explain observed intensities. Prominence models with a temperature higher than 8,000K can yield the centrally reversed Lyman line profiles confirmed by satellite EUV observations. We find that queiscent prominence with a density between $2{\times}10^{11}$ and $10^{12}cm^{-3}$ should be in temperature range between 6,300K and 8,300K, in order to explain consistently observed H alpha, beta line emissions and $n_p/n_l$ ratio.

  • FACT(facilitates chromatin transcription)은 크로마틴을 주형으로 하는 전사에 필요한 크로마틴 특이적 전사 진행 인자이다. FACT는 Saccharomyces Cerevisiae Spt16/Cdc68의인간 유사체와 high mobility froup-1-like protein structure-specific recognition protein-1(SSRP-1)의 이종단백질 복합체이다 본 논문에서는 FACT의 단위체인 hSpt16의 발현이 휴지기의 T98G 세포에서 급격히 감소됨을 면역형광 분석법과 Western blot 분석법을 이용하여 관찰하였다. 이와 반대로 증식기의 T98C 세포에서는 hSpt16이 높은 수준으로 발현되고 있는 것이 관찰되었다. FACT의 또 다른 단위체 SSRP-1의 발현은 휴지기나 증식기의 세포에서 변화가 없음이 관찰되었다. 이상의 결과로부터 hSpt16이 발현이 세포의증식과 연관이 되어 있음을 알 수 있었고 세포 증식 표지 인자로 사용될 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

  • 28.5 ㎑의 초음파의 미세 수직진동에 의해서 유도된 음향유동 (acoustic streaming)을 레이저를 이용한 입자 영상. 유속계에 의하여 고정 유리 평판과 초음파 진동자의 사이에서의 공기 유동을 가시화 하였다. 음향유동에 의한 공기의 유동 속도의 증가를 측정하기 위해 고정 유리 평판과 초음파 진동자의 사이에서의 속도변화를 실시간으로 측정하였다. 진동자와 고정 평판의 사이의 gap에 따른 음향유동의 세기의 변화를 정량적인 공기의 유동 속도의 변화에 의해 관찰되었고 고정판과 초음파 진동자 사이의 gap에서 공진 상태를 야기시키는 공진 Gap (H=18, 24, 30, 36㎜)중에서 공진 Gap (H)이 18m일 때 최대의 음향속도가 존재함을 알 수 있었고 진동자 표면부근에서부터 고정평판사이까지의 국소 최대 난류강도의 축 방향 위치에 따른 변화는 gap의 크기에 따라 8%∼70% 이었다. 전단응력값은 반경방향 위치의 중심영역에서 최대전단응력을 가지며 와도 분포도 반경방향 위치에서 진동자 중심영역에 최대 및 최소와도 값을 가짐을 알 수 있었다.

  • Star formation activity of galaxies, along with color and morphology, show significant environmental dependence in local universe, where galaxies in dense environment tend to be more quiescent and redder. However, many studies show that such environmental dependence does not continue at higher redshifts beyond z~1. The question of how the environmental dependence of galactic properties have developed over time is crucial to understanding cosmic galactic evolution. By combining data from Canada-France-Hawaii Telescope Legacy Survey(CFHTLS), Infrared Medium-Deep Survey(IMS), and other surveys, the photometric redshifts of galaxies in CFHTLS W2 field were estimated by fitting spectral energy distribution. The distribution of galaxies was mapped in redshift bins of 0.05 interval from 0.6 to 1.4. For each redshift bin, the number density was mapped. The galaxies in high density regions were grouped into clusters using friend-of-friend method. The color of galaxies were analyzed to study the correlation with redshift as well as environmental difference between field galaxies and cluster member galaxies.

  • Soybeans are one of the major crops for human food resource; protein, lipid, and carbohydrate. In these days, they are widely using for cosmetics to supply phospholipid; natural surfactant. In this study we used black soybean seed in korea and observed many kinds of biochemical constituents; isoflavone, melatonin, crisantemine and calcium in ethanol extract. Also, its extract (we named it Flatonin) has been demonstrated that korean black soybean seed is able to stimulate the proliferation of NIH 373 cells and increase the production of type III collagen in NIH 373 and Malme-3 (human skin fibroblast) cells. The addition of korean black soybean to quiescent NIH 373 cells resulted in an increase of proliferation which was assayed by MTF method. The maximum effect of korean black soybean was detected in 0.4% korean black soybean treated cells which was comparable to that of 5% serum(96% of 5% serum effect). The addition of korean black soybean to NIH 373 and Malme-3 cells also increased the production of type III collagen in both cells. These results indicate that korean black soybean may enhance the repair process after injury and prevent aging processes in connective tissues.
