  • Bloom syndrome protein (BLM) is a pivotal RecQ helicase necessary for genetic stability through DNA repair processes. Our investigation focuses on the N-terminal region of BLM, which has been considered as an intrinsically disordered region (IDR). This IDR plays a critical role in DNA metabolism by interacting with other proteins. In this study, we performed triple resonance experiments of BLM220-300 and presented the backbone chemical shifts. The secondary structure prediction based on chemical shifts of the backbone atoms shows the region is disordered. Our data could help further interaction studies between BLM220-300 and its binding partners using NMR.

  • The vegetative and reproductive morphology of some parasitic Janczewskia Solms-Laubach species including the type species was examined based on specimens collected from various localities around the world. In J. gardneri Setchell et Guernsey on Osmundea spectabilis (Postels et Ruprecht) Nam from California, secondary pit connections are not found between epidermal cells and vegetative axial cells have two pericentral cells. As its host, J. gardneri also has a typical filament type male structure in an apical urn-shaped pit of branches rather than the trichoblast type in other species including the type J. verruciformis Solms-Laubach and tetrasporangial origin of epidermal cells rather than pericentral cells. These significant differences between the species suggest that J. gardneri should be separated from the genus Janczewskia. Based on this morphological data, the section Heterojanczewskia Setchell including J. gardneri, together with an emendation of the generic delineation of Janczewskia, is elevated to the genus level. Relevant nomenclatural changes for some Janczewskia species are also included here.

  • We report a new all-optical flip-flop (AOFF) with a quite simple structure, using optical beating in an injection-locked Fabry-Perot laser diode (FP-LD) with optical bistability. While conventional AOFF methods using an injection-locked FP-LD require additional devices such as secondary FP-LDs or polarization controllers for reset operation, the proposed method can be implemented using only a single commercially available FP-LD with set and reset signals. The optical beating induces intensity fluctuations inside the FP-LD, and releases the locking state to the reset state. Even though we demonstrated the AOFF at 100 Mbit/s, we expect that its operation rate could extend to 10 Gbit/s, according to the limit of the FP-LD's frequency response.

  • A total of 546 UBV photoelectric observations of AG Per was carried out from January to December in 1993 at Chungbuk National University Observatory. With our observations, UBV light curves were constructed, three minimum times of JDHel. 2449284.213, JDHel. 2449360.060, and JDHel. 2449363.192 were determined. The phase displacement of secondary minimum time $\delta$=-0.046 were determined and orbital eccentricity e=0.071 was calculated. Forty-five times of minimum light (including ours) were collected from the literature and plotted on O-C diagram. We analyzed these data and apsidal motion period of U=76.17 (years) was obtained. Using e and U for AG Per, the internal structure constant, log k2, was found to be -2.13.

  • Low moleuclar weight (LMW) RNAs were isolated form Korean peonies which expressed symptoms of stunt and epinasty. The LMW plant RNAs were purified by Qiagen column chromatography which could separate viroid specific nucleic acid at differential salt concentration. After the inoculation of the purified RNAs from the peonies, the inoculated tomatoes (cv. Rutgers) expressed the symptoms of stunt and epinasty. Also the same molecular weight RNAs with viroid-like RNAs were isolated from the inoculated tomatoes. Double-stranded cDNA were synthesized by the methods of reverse transcription (RT) and polymerase chain reaction (PCR) with the purified RNA and primers. The same cDNAs associated with viroid-like RNAs wre cloned from the inoculated tomatoes. The cDNA has been sequenced and its 375-nucleotides were arranged into secondary structure. The cloned cDNA showed 47~54% homology compared with other viroids. The sequence homology of the cloned cDNA were partially high with plant genomic RNAs.

  • Three dimensional velocity measurements of a 35.deg. inclined jet issuing into turbulent boundary layer on both concave and convex surfaces have been conducted. To investigate solely the effect of each curvature on the flow field, streamwise pressure variations are minimized by adjusting the shape of the opposite wall in the curved region. From the measured velocity components, streamwise mean vorticities are calculated to determine jet-crossflow interface. The results on convex surface show that the injected jet is separated from the wall and the bound vortex maintains its structure far downstream. On concave surface, the secondary flow in the jet cross-sections are enhanced and in some downstream region from the jet exit, the flow on the concave surface has been developed to Taylor-Gortler vortices

  • Linear induction motors are characterized by a large air gap and, as a result, large leakage inductances. Moreover, due to its unslotted structure and the absence of end rings in the secondary part, the equivalent circuit parameter calculation is very difficult. Therefore this paper introduces the new method of equivalent circuit parameter and analyzes dynamics characteristic of single-sided LIM

  • The west express way which links south west area of the central city of Seoul has been notorious for extremely heavy traffics since its first opening in 1991(i.e. the average vehicle speed is less than 25km/h, a daily traffic is 112,000 and among them, more than 94% of the vehicles are the light vehicles). The city government recently initiated a new BTO(Build-Transfer-Operate) project as an alternative in releasing heavy traffic and a high construction cost. The proposed underground express road is the first double-level tunnel (i.e. a total length of road is 10,91km and the tunnel is 9.308km long) ever built in South Korea, while such tunnel system is not new worldwide as such A86 East tunnel in France, SMART tunnel in Malaysia, and Fuxing tunnel in China. This paper discusses major design issues regarding the internal structures such as deck slab, and secondary liner.

  • In order for the international aviation community to efficiently and safely manage the gradual increase of air passenger demand, direction suggestions of airport traffic prediction based on future airport capacity requirements, airport design and infrastructure establishment is utilized by airport traffic data that is m comparable internationally. It is a global trend to pursue more efficient airport operating system structure to accept air passenger demand through more realistic comparable data in order to escape from the structure of reckless airport establishment and infrastructure composition based on passenger demand predictions referring to simple statistical data that has existed in the past. This study aimed to seek effective operational measures for the New Jeju airport scheduled to be opened in 2025 by time-series analysis. This study also analysed airport operation strategies, air traffic distribution strategies, cargo volume increase rates and its effectiveness of airports adopting the multi-airport system that have similar operational practices and geographical conditions. This study sought the most appropriate multi airport system application measures for New Jeju airport to promote efficiency and international competitiveness.

  • The large amount of secondary effects in complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor technology limits its application in the ultra-nanoscale region. Circuit designers explore a new technology for the ultra-nanoscale region, which is the quantum-dot cellular automata (QCA). Low-energy dissipation, high speed, and area efficiency are the key features of the QCA technology. This research proposes a novel, low-complexity, QCA-based one-bit digital comparator circuit for the ultra-nanoscale region. The performance of the proposed comparator circuit is presented in detail in this paper and compared with that of existing designs. The proposed QCA structure for the comparator circuit only consists of 19 QCA cells with two clock phases. QCA Designer-E and QCA Pro tools are applied to estimate the total energy dissipation. The proposed comparator saves 24.00% QCA cells, 25.00% cell area, 37.50% layout cost, and 78.11% energy dissipation compared with the best reported similar design.
