  • 만가닥버섯은 일본에서 가장 중요한 식용버섯이다. 그러나 배양기간이 약 85~120일로 길어서 국내에서 다른 버섯에 비해 배양이 어려운 실정이다. 이 연구에서는 만가닥버섯 표준유전체 염기서열분석을 위하여 '해미'품종으로부터 원형질체를 분리하고 재생하여 모균주의 단핵균주를 얻었다. MCM배지 및 MYG배지에서 배양되고, 균질화된 균사체는 원형질체를 얻기 위하여 Novozyme효소를 처리하였다. 원형질체 분리의 가장 높은 효율은 MCM 배지에서 이차배양이 3일된 균사체에 2.5시간 효소처리 조건이었다. 분리된 원형질체는 재생배지에서 2주 동안 배양되어 재생되었다. 재생체는 클램프로 단핵균주를 확인하고 '해미'의 모균주의 단핵균주와 클램프 유무로 친화성을 확인하였다. 분리된 모균주의 단핵균주는 짧은 배양기간을 가진 품종을 개발하기 위한 유전적 기초자료를 완성하는 표준유전체 염기분석 재료로서 사용될 예정이다.

  • The genus Paenibacillus is a new group of bacilli separated from the genus Bacillus, and most of species have been isolated from soil. In the present study, we collected 450 spore-forming bacilli from the roots of winter crops, such as barley, wheat, onion, green onion, and Chinese cabbage, which were cultivated in the southern part of Korea. Among these 450 isolates, 104 Paenibacillus-like isolates were selected, based on their colony shape, odor, color, and endospore morphology, and 41 isolates were then finally identified as Paenibacillus spp. by 16S rDNA sequencing. Among the 41 Paenibacillus isolates, 23 were classified as P. polymyxa, a type species of the genus Paenibacillus, based on comparison of the 16S rDNA sequences with those of 32 type strains of the genus Paenibacillus from the GenBank database. Thirty-five isolates among the 41 Paenibacillus isolates exhibited antagonistic activity towards plant fungal and bacterial pathogens, whereas 24 isolates had a significant growth-enhancing effect on cucumber seedlings, when applied to the seeds. An assessment of the root-colonization capacity under gnotobiotic conditions revealed that all 41 isolates were able to colonize cucumber roots without any significant difference. Twenty-one of the Paenibacillus isolates were shown to contain the nifH gene, which is an indicator of $N_{2}$ fixation. However, the other 20 isolates, including the reference strain E681, did not incorporate the nifH gene. To investigate the diversity of the isolates, a BOX-PCR was performed, and the resulting electrophoresis patterns allowed the 41 Paenibacillus isolates to be divided into three groups (Groups A, B, and C). One group included Paenibacillus strains isolated mainly from barley or wheat, whereas the other two groups contained strains isolated from diverse plant samples. Accordingly, the present results showed that the Paenibacillus isolates collected from the rhizosphere of winter crops were diverse in their biological and genetic characteristics, and they are good candidates for further application studies.

  • 복제수변이(Copy number variation, CNV)는 DNA 다양한 구조적 변화의 한 형태이다. 복제수변이는 인간의 질병 및 농업의 생산성에 영향을 미치는 것으로 알려져 있다. 이전 우리나라의 닭의 품종은 유럽에서 유입되어진 품종을 기반으로 구축되어져 있었다. 따라서 농촌진흥청 국립축산과학원에서는 20년 동안 재래품종을 복원하려고 노력하였고, 5품종 12계통으로 복원하였다. 최근 염기서열분석 기술의 발달로, 해상도가 좋은 게놈 전체의 복제수변이를 발굴할 수 있게 되었다. 그러나 한국 재래닭 품종에 대해서는 체계적인 연구가 이루어지지 않고 있다. 본 연구에서는 한국 재래 닭(계통 L)에 대해서 게놈 전체의 염기서열을 분석하고 닭의 참고서열과 비교하여 재래닭에서 확인된 복제수 변이를 보고하였다. 닭의 28개 염색체에서 총 501개의 복제수 변이를 확인하였고, 이를 Gain과 Loss로 나누어서 표시하였다. 또한 우리는 501개의 복제수 변이를 포함하고 있는 유전자의 기능을 분류하였다. 그 결과, 전사 및 유전자 조절에 관련된 유전자들이 많이 분류되었다. 본 연구의 결과는 복제수 변이와 한국 재래닭의 경제형질 간의 연관성을 설명할 수 있는 기초자료로 활용될 것으로 사료된다.

  • The cryopreservation has been extensively applied in many cells including spermatozoa (semen) during past several decades. Especially, the canine spermatozoa cryopreservation has contributed on generation of progeny of rare/genetically valuable dog breeds, genome resource banking and transportation of male germplasm at a distant place. However, severe and irreversible damages to the spermatozoa during cryopreservation procedures such as the thermal shock (cold shock), formation of intracellular ice crystals, osmotic shock, stress of cryoprotectants and generator of reactive oxygen species (ROS) have been addressed. According as a number of researches have been conducted to overcome these problems and to advance cryopreservation technique, several analytical methods have been employed to evaluate the quality of the fresh or cryopreserved canine spermatozoa in regards to the motility, morphology, integrity of membrane and DNA, mitochondrial activity, ROS generation, binding affinity to oocytes, in vitro fertilization potential and fertility potential by artificial insemination. Because the study designs with certain application of analytical methods are selective and varied depending on each experimental objective and laboratory condition, it is necessary to establish the normal reference data of the fresh or cryopreserved canine spermatozoa for each analytical method to monitor experimental procedure, to translate raw data and to discuss results. Here, we reviewed the recent articles to introduce various analytical methods for the canine spermatozoa as well as to establish the normal reference data for each analytical method in the fresh or cryopreserved canine spermatozoa, based on the results of the previous articles. We hope that this review contributes to the advancement of cryobiology in canine spermatozoa.

  • 최근 만성 B형간염의 치료에 B형간염 바이러스 복제를 저해하여 감염력을 약화시키는 lamivudine이 많이 사용되고 있다. 그러나 이 약제를 장기간 복용할 경우 B형간염 바이러스 DNA polymerase 유전자의 YMDD motif에 아미노산 치환을 일으켜 lamivudine 저항성 B형간염 바이러스가 나타나는 점이 문제시 되고 있다. 본 연구의 목적은 lamivudine 치료를 받은 만성 B형간염 환자에서 PCR-direct sequencing 법을 이용하여 B형간염 바이러스 DNA 중합효소 유전자의 YMDD motif(codon 552)와 codon 528에서 돌연변이 출현빈도를 구하고, HBeAg과의 관련성을 보고자 하였다. 방법은 만성 B형간염 환자의 혈청에서 DNA를 추출하고 DNA 중합효소 유전자의 codon 552와 528을 포함하는 부위에서 선택한 두 쌍의 primer를 이용하여 nested PCR을 실시하였다. 증폭된 PCR 산물은 2% agarose gel에서 전기영동을 한 후, 자동염기서열분석기를 이용하여 sequencing을 실시하였다. 총 207명 중에서 돌연변이는 124명(60%)에서 발견되었으며, 남, 녀에서 차이는 발견되지 않았고, 돌연변이군에서 비돌연변이군에 비해 평균나이가 약간 높게 나타났으나 유의성은 없었다. Codon 552에서 단일돌연변이로는 M552I(50.8%)가 가장 높게 나타났고, 다음으로 M552V(43.5%), M552I/V(5.7%)의 순서로 나타났다. Codon 528에서는 67.0%의 L528M 돌연변이가 발견되었다. Codon 552와 codon 528에서 동시에 발생한 중복돌연변이로는 M552V/L528M(43.6%)이 가장 높게 나타났고, 다음으로 M552I/L528(33.1%) 그리고 M552I/L528M(17.7%)의 순으로 나타났다. Codon 552에서 serine 돌연변이(M528S)는 발견되지 않았으며, L528M은 M552V 돌연변이와 거의 동시에 검출되었다. 본 연구에서 만성 B형간염환자에서 HBeAg의 유무와 lamivudine 돌연변이율과의 상관성은 발견되지 않았으며, PCR-direct sequencing법은 고가의 자동염기서열분석 장비와 숙련된 기술자가 필요하다는 문제점은 있으나, 검체 수가 많은 큰 임상검사실에서는 활용성이 클 것으로 판단된다. 향 후 lamivudine으로 인한 HBV 돌연변이형과 환자의 임상결과의 관련성에 대한 연구가 추가적으로 실시되면, lamivudine을 복용하는 만성 HBV 환자의 치료와 예후에 유용할 것으로 사료된다.

  • Streptomyces griseus S4-7, a well-characterized keystone taxon among strawberry microbial communities, shows exceptional disease-preventing ability. The whole-genome sequence, functional genes, and bioactive secondary metabolites of the strain have been described in previous studies. However, proteomics studies of not only the S4-7 strain, but also the Streptomyces genus as a whole, remain limited to date. Therefore, in the present study, we created a proteomics reference map for S. griseus S4-7. Additionally, analysis of differentially expressed proteins was performed against a wblE2 mutant, which was deficient in spore chain development and did not express an antifungal activity-regulatory transcription factor. We believe that our data provide a foundation for further in-depth studies of functional keystone taxa of the phytobiome and elucidation of the mechanisms underlying plant-microbe interactions, especially those involving the Streptomyces genus.

  • Event-specific real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) detection method for genetically modified (GM) maize MIR604 was developed based on integration junction sequences between the host plant genome and the integrated transgene. In this study, 2 primer pairs and probes were designed for specific amplification of 100 and 111 bp DNA fragments from the zSSIIb gene (the maize endogenous reference gene) and MIR604. The quantitative method was validated using 3 certified reference materials (CRMs) with levels of 0.1, 1, and 10% MIR604. The method was also assayed with 14 different plants and other GM maize. No amplification signal was observed in real-time PCR assays with any of the species tested other than MIR604 maize. As a result, the bias from the true value and the relative deviation for MIR604 was within the range from 0 to 9%. Precision, expressed as relative standard deviation (RSD), varied from 2.7 to 10% for MIR604. Limits of detections (LODs) of qualitative and quantitative methods were all 0.1%. These results indicated that the event-specific quantitative PCR detection system for MIR604 is accurate and useful.

  • In order to obtain the genetic informations of the Korean isolates of porcine circovirus 2 (PCV2), nucleotide sequences of total genome of three isolates and open reading frame 2 (ORF2) of four isolates were determined and compared with those of other reference PCV2 isolates. Nucleotide sequences of 3 isolates showed over 99% homology with those of reference strain (GenBank accession no. AF027217). Point mutations were mainly determined on ORF2 regions but little on ORF1 regions. The patterns of pointmutated sites and nucleotide substitution on ORF2 regions were generally consistent between Korean isolates, and these mutated sites observed in Korean isolates were also relatively similar to those of foreign isolates. Phylogenetic analysis of nucleotide or amino acid sequences showed that there were minor branches consisting of three clusters; cluster of Korea, Canada and America, cluster of Spain and Taiwan, and the last cluster of French and China isolates. These results suggested that Korean PCV2s were probably originated from North America such as Canada or USA. The genetic informations obtained from this study could be useful for the research of diagnosis and pathogenecity of PCV2.

  • Recent advances in sequencing technologies and platforms have enabled to generate metagenomics sequences using different sequencing platforms. In this study, we analyzed and compared shotgun metagenomic sequences generated by HiSeq3000 and BGISEQ-500 platforms from 12 sediment samples collected across the Norwegian coast. Metagenomics DNA sequences were normalized to an equal number of bases for both platforms and further evaluated by using different taxonomic classifiers, reference databases, and assemblers. Normalized BGISEQ-500 sequences retained more reads and base counts after preprocessing, while a slightly higher fraction of HiSeq3000 sequences were taxonomically classified. Kaiju classified a higher percentage of reads relative to Kraken2 for both platforms, and comparison of reference database for taxonomic classification showed that MAR database outperformed RefSeq. Assembly using MEGAHIT produced longer assemblies and higher total contigs count in majority of HiSeq3000 samples than using metaSPAdes, but the assembly statistics notably improved with unprocessed or normalized reads. Our results indicate that both platforms perform comparably in terms of the percentage of taxonomically classified reads and assembled contig statistics for metagenomics samples. This study provides valuable insights for researchers in selecting an appropriate sequencing platform and bioinformatics pipeline for their metagenomics studies.
