Adjuvants are immune enhancers that are often used in vaccination to augment the immune response of a vaccine, thereby enhancing the protective immunity against the targeted disease. In the present study, we used the recombinant protein, such as rRbCC1, this protein was produced from rock bream CC chemokine 1. To verify the adjuvant effects of this recombinant protein, the immune responses of rock bream to Streptococcus iniae (S. iniae) FKC vaccination, which alone or in combination with recombinant protein was analyzed and then also performed experimental challenge with live S. iniae. The result of serum agglutination titres was showed relatively low levels however, the efficacy of FKC vaccine still conferred protection against S. iniae. Moreover, the adverse effects result showed that no statistically significant difference was revealed between high concentration injected and non-injected fish groups, generally. The relative percent survival (RPS) of FKC + recombinant vaccination group was significantly higher than that of vaccinated group with FKC alone. After experimental challenge to the rock bream by injection with live bacteria (S. iniae), the FKC + rRbCC1 vaccination group was showed 87.0% RPS, however, the RPS of FKC alone vaccination was 68.2%. The results indicated that the recombinant protein as an adjuvant had a clear synergism to injection vaccine of rock bream.

화학 영양성으로 배양한 Rps. gelatinosa 에서 2회의 시토크롬 c 친화성 크로마토그래피와 DEAE-Sephacel 이온 교환 크로마토그래피 등 3 단계의 크로마토그래피를 수행하여 시토로콤 c 산화효소를 정제하였다. 정제된 시토크롬 c 산화효소는 Sephacryl S-300 에 의한 분자걍이 약 110,000 Da 이고 SDS-gel 전기영동에 의한 분자량이 약 52.000 Da 으로써 이량체일 것으로 보인다. 전제된 시토크롬 c 산화효소는 온도데 매우 불안정하고 말 심장 시토크롬 c 를 기질로 사용했을때 Km 값은 $20\mu$M, Vmax 값은 44unit/mg prot. 이며 pH 6.4 의 효소방응 최적 pH 와 25.deg.C 의 최적 온도를 보였다. 환원된 시토크롬 c 산화효소는 554, 523, 421 nm 에서 .alpha., .betha. soret 흡수대를 보였고 chromatophore 에서와 마찬가지로 KCN 과 $NaN_{3}$ 에 의해서는 효소 활성도가 저해를 받았지만 CO 와 antimycin A, myxothiazol 에 의해서는 효소 활성도가 저해를 받지 않았다. 빛을 에너지원으로 배양하거나 또는 화학영양성으로 배양하든지 모두 시토크롬 c-551 이 생성되었고 환원된 시토크롬 c-551 은 시토크롬 c 산화효소에 의해 산화되었다. 시토크롬 c-551 을 기질고 이용하였을 때 시토크롬 c 산화효소의 Km 값은 $26\mu$M 이었고 Vmax 값은 31.unit./mg prot. 로써 말심장의 시토크롬 c 를 기질로 이용할때 보다 오히려 낮았다. 이와 같은 결과로 보아 화학 영양성은 배양한 Rhodopseudomonas gelatinosa 에서 호흡에 의한 전자전달은 시토크롬 c-551 이 시토크롬 $bc_{1}$ 복합체로 부터 전자를 받아 b-형 시토크롬 c 산화효소에 전자를 전달해 주고 최정적으로 산소를 환원시킬 것으로 생각된다.

본 연구는 뱀장어 양식에서 오랜 기간 문제시되고 있는 에드와드병(Edwardsiellosis)에 대한 효과적인 백신 투여 방법의 가능성을 알아보고자하였다. 뱀장어 유래의 Edwardsiella tarda로부터 포르말린 불활화백신(FKC)을 제작하여, 크기가 다른 3개 그룹의 뱀장어($26.8{\pm}1.2g$, $7.1{\pm}0.7g$, $2.2{\pm}0.4g$)에 침지 및 경구 투여를 실시하였다. 그리고 혈청 응집항체가의 활성과 E. tarda 공격접종에 대한 방어력(상대생존율, RSP)의 변화를 조사하였다. 모든 그룹에서 응집항체가와 공격접종에 의한 방어력은 상관성이 없었다. 그러나 $26.8g{\pm}1.2g$그룹의 경우, 침지(10 mg/mL)와 침지(10 mg/mL)+경구(10 mg/g) 실험구에서 RSP는 각각 62.6% 및 52.2%를 나타내었으며, $7.1{\pm}0.7g$ 그룹의 경우, 침지(10 mg/mL)+경구(10 mg/g) 실험구에서 RSP는 56.8%로 나타나서 방어력(RPS>50%)이 확인되었다.

This study was conducted to clarify the phylogenetic position and relationships of Korean Poaceae taxa. A total of 438 taxa including 155 accessions of Korean Poaceae (representing 92% and 72% of Korean Poaceous genera and species, respectively) were employed for phylogeny reconstruction. Sequence data of eight chloroplast DNA markers were used for molecular phylogenetic analyses. The resulted phylogeny was mostly concordant with previous phylogenetic hypotheses, especially in terms of subfamilial and tribal relationships. Several taxa-specific indels were detected in the molecular phylogeny, including a 45 bp deletion in rps3 (PACMAD [Panicoideae, Arundinoideae, Chloridoideae, Micrairoideae, Aristidoideae, Danthonioideae] clade), a 15 bp deletion in ndhF (Oryzeae + Phyllorachideae), a 6 bp deletion in trnLF (Poeae s.l.), and two (17 bp and 378 bp) deletions in atpF-H (Pooideae). The Korean Poaceae members were classified into 23 tribes, representing eight subfamilies. The subfamilial and tribal classifications of the Korean taxa were generally congruent with a recently published system, whereas some subtribes and genera were found to be non-monophyletic. The taxa included in the PACMAD clade (especially Andropogoneae) showed very weak and uncertain phylogenetic relationships, presumably to be due to evolutionary radiation and polyploidization. The reconstructed phylogeny can be utilized to update the taxonomic positions of the newly examined grass accessions.

Although the function and utility of RNA transcripts derived from matured spermatozoa remains unclear, they might play important roles in the establishment of a paternal genome and subsequently embryo development. Herein, we investigated the expression of X-chromosome linked RNA transcripts in matured bovine spermatozoa. The total RNA was extracted from the matured spermatozoa, and then converted to cDNA. Autosomal genes (ACT-${\beta}$ and H-2A) and X-chromosome linked genes (ANT3, HPRT, MeCP2, RPS4X, XIAP, XIST and ZFX) were analyzed for the characterization of X-chromosome linked RNA transcripts and compared to female fibroblasts by RT-PCR. The transcripts of autosomal genes (ACT-${\beta}$ and H2A) and X-chromosome linked genes (ANT3, HPRT, MeCP2, RPS4X and ZFX) were not detected in spermatozoa. However, XIAP (X-linked inhibitor of apoptosis protein) and XIST (X-chromosome inactive-specific transcript, a kind of paternal imprinted gene) transcripts were detected in spermatozoa, and relative levels of XIAP and XIST transcripts were similar and 0.5-fold lower when compared to female fibroblasts, respectively. Based on the findings, it is summarized that the presence of RNA transcripts of XIAP and XIST in the isolated spermatozoa may imply their role in inhibition of apoptosis and induction of X-chromosome inactivation in embryo development.

Phytophthora root and stem rot reduce soybean yields worldwide. The use of R-gene type resistance is currently crucial for protecting soybean production. The present study aimed to identify the genomic location of a gene conferring resistance to Phytophthora sojae isolate 2457 in the recombinant inbred line population developed by a cross of Daepung × Daewon. Singlemarker analysis identified 20 single nucleotide polymorphisms associated with resistance to the P. sojae isolate 2457, which explained ~67% of phenotypic variance. Daewon contributed a resistance allele for the locus. This region is a well-known location for Rps1 and Rps7. The present study is the first, however, to identify an Rps gene locus from a major soybean variety cultivated in South Korea. Linkage analysis also identified a 573 kb region on chromosome 3 with high significance (logarithm of odds = 13.7). This genomic region was not further narrowed down due to lack of recombinants within the interval. Based on the latest soybean genome, ten leucine-rich repeat coding genes and four serine/ threonine protein kinase-coding genes are annotated in this region, which all are well-known types of genes for conferring disease resistance in crops. These genes would be candidates for molecular characterization of the resistance in further studies. The identified R-gene locus would be useful in developing P. sojae resistant varieties in the future. The results of the present study provide foundational knowledge for researchers who are interested in soybean-P. sojae interaction.

Using the DDRT-PCR, a series of differentially expressed genes in human primary cervical cancer was isolated. Among the 250 PCR amplimers, 88 gene fragments were confirmed by reverse Northern hybridization. Homology searches indicated that 26 out of 88 were previously known genes including calmodulin, human BBC1, histone H3.3, a series of ribosomal proteins (RPL19, RPS19, and RPS12), translation initiation factor (eIF-4AI), lactoferrin, integrin ${\alpha}6$, cell-surface antigens (CD9 and CD59), transcription factor (mbp-1), and mitochondrial proteins. Several unknown clones showed sequence homology with known genes. Furthermore, six of the unknown genes showed identical sequence with expressed sequence tags (EST) of unknown function. Differential expression patterns of identified genes were further examined and confirmed with multiple pairs of cervical cancer samples using Northern hybridization. Our profiling of differentially expressed genes may provide useful information about the underlying genetic alterations in human cervical carcinoma and diagnostic markers for this disease. The precise roles of these genes in cancer development remain to be elucidated.
