  • To develope the novel baculovirus transfer vector, the p10 gene was cloned from the Bombyx mori nuclear polygedrosis virus (BmNPV) vB2 strain isolated from the B. mori larvae of sericultural farms. The novel transfer vector was constructed by using the p10 gene of BmNPV vB2 strain was 210 bp. The TAAG sequence at the -71 bp of upstream from translation initiator ATG and two polyadenylation signal site at the downstream from terminator TAA were also detected in the p10 gene. The 5' and 3' flanking region of the p10 gene amplified by PCR was cloned into pBluescriptII SK(+) and then transfer vector pBm10 was construceted. The 7.9 kb pBm10 was analysed by restriction enzymes and the map was confirmed. In order to determine the expression of foreign gene of pBm10, $\beta$-galactosidase gene was inserted in the SmaI site of foreign gene cloning site of pBm10. The pBm10 containing $\beta$-galactosidase gene was cotranfected wth genomic DNA of BmNPV vB2 into BmN-4 cells. The recombinant baculovirus expressing $\beta$-galactosidase was also produced polygedra in the infected cells. The results indicated that pBm10 is functional, suggesting that in the baculovirus expression vector system, the recombinant virus produced by pBm10 was effective by oral infection for the producing recombinant proteins in in vivo expression.

  • Leaf scald caused by the infection of Rhynchosporium secalis, is a worldwide crop disease resulting in significant loss of barley yield. In this study, a systematic sequencing of expressed sequence tags (ESTs) was chosen to obtain a global picture of the assembly of genes involved in pathogenesis. To identify a large number of plant ESTs, which are induced at different time points, an amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) display of complementary DNA (cDNA) was utilized. Transcriptional changes of 140 ESTs were observed, of which 19 have no previously described function. Functional annotation of the transcripts revealed a variety of infection-induced host genes encoding classical pathogenesis-related (PR) or genes that play a role in the signal transduction pathway. The expression analyses by a semi-quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) revealed that Rar1 and Rpg4 are defense inducible genes, and were consistent with the cDNA-AFLP data in their expression patterns. Hence, the here presented transcriptomic approach provides novel global catalogue of genes not currently represented in the EST databases.

  • 무선망을 통한 개인별 고속 멀티미디어 서비스의 필요성이 커짐에 따라 데이터 전송 속도의 고속화 및 많은 가입자의 수용이 요구되고 있다. 따라서 앞으로 이와 같은 멀티미디어 서비스용 이동 통신 시스템의 구현을 위해서는 기지국에 스마트 안테나 기술을 적용하여야 할 것이다. 그러므로 본 논문에서는 MC-CDMA(Multi-Carrier Code Division Multiple Access)와 DS-CDMA(Direct Sequence) 방식에 스마트 안테나를 적용한 시스템의 BER 성능을 비교 분석하였다. 적응 빔 형성(Adaptive Beamforming) 기법 및 신호 스펙트럼 대역폭에 따른 MC-CDMA와 DS-CDMA의 특성을 주파수 선택적 Rayleigh 페이딩에서의 역 방향 링크 채널을 가정하여 모의 실험 하였다. 스마트 안테나의 빔 폭을 적게 할수록 전체적으로 BER 성능이 향상됨을 알 수 있었고 MC-CDMA 시스템의 경우 사용자 수가 급격히 증가하더라도 DS-CDMA에 비하여 BER 성능이 훨씬 우수함을 확인하였다.

  • 본 논문에서는 고 효율 및 고 출력 특성을 가지는 질화갈륨(GaN) 소자를 이용하여 WiMAX 및 LTE System에 사용될 수 있는 DPD용 Pallet Amplifier를 제작하였다. 제작된 Pallet Amplifier는 Pre-drive로써 저 전류의 MMIC를 채택하고, Drive 단과 Main 단에 15W 급과 30W 급의 질화갈륨 소자를 사용 하였으며, 추가적인 효율 개선을 위해 PCB상에 Doherty Structure를 적용함으로써 보다 높은 효율을 구현하였다. 제작된 Pallet Amplifier는 음 전원 Bias 제어 회로, 온도에 따른 Gain 보상회로, Sequence 회로 및 Main 전원 Drop에 따른 보호 회로를 구현하였다. WiMAX Signal을 이용한 Modulation Power 10Watt Test에서 약 36.8~38.3%의 Pallet 효율과 DPD Solution인 TI GC5325SEK DPD Board 사용 시 ACLR은 약 46dBc 이상을 가지는 것으로 측정되었다. 본 논문에서 제작된 Pallet Amplifier는 Upper Band와 Lower Band로 나누어 제작되었던 기존 Pallet Amplifier와 달리 하나의 Pallet Amplifier로 2496~2690MHz에서 모두 사용하면서 종전에 사용되고 있는 Pallet Amplifier에 비해 Size가 최소 10% 이상 축소되어 효율 및 크기 면에서 종전 Pallet Amplifier보다 큰 이점을 갖는다.

  • The advanced glycation endproducts receptor (AGER) is a multiligand signal transduction receptor. One of its ligands, S100b molecules activates vascular smooth muscle cells and endothelial cells via its receptor, thus triggering activation of signaling cascades and generation of cytokines and proinflammatory molecules. Ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme Ubc9 is an E2 conjugating enzyme that transfers the activated small ubiquitin-related modifier to protein substrates, and thus it plays a critical role in SUR-Mylation-mediated cellular pathways. Previous studies have shown that both AGE-R and Ubc9 play roles in diverse cellular signaling pathways. However, until recently, little attention has been paid to interactions between AGE-R and Ubc9. In this study, sequence database searches allowed us to identify a potential interaction motif between AGE-R and Ubc9. The subsequent biochemical and molecular biological analysis suggested that there may be specificity in AGE-R and Ubc9 complex signaling in atherosclerosis and cancer cells in a cell-type specific manner. Although the determinant for specificity in AGE-R and Ubc9 complex signaling in cancer cells and atherosclerosis is yet to be determined, this study provides the basis to develop a specific therapeutic application of AGE-R, SURM (small ubiquitin-related modifier)-1, and Ubc9 complex activation pathways in atherosclerosis, diabetes, cancer and inflammatory diseases.

  • The cdd gene of Bacillus subtilis, encoding the deoxycytidinecytidine deaminase of pyrimidine nucleotide biosynthesis has been cloned into the EcoRl site of pBR322. The recombinant plasmid, pSol, promoted the synthesis of 100-140 fold elevated levels of the enzyme. A comparison of the polypeptides encoded by cdd complementing and non-complementing plasmids in the mini cell showed the gene product to have a molecular mass of approximately 14 kDa. The nucleotide sequence of the gene and 460 base pairs upstream from the coding region was determined. An open-reading frame, encoding a protein with a calculated molecular mass of 14337 Da, was deduced to be the coding region for cdd. However, the enzyme has an apparent molecular mass of 54 kDa as determined by gel filteration, whereas sucrose density gradient centrifugation shows 58 kDa. It means that the enzyme could be forming a tetramer in a physiological state. About 28 amino acids of the N-tetramer in a physiological state. About 28 amino acids of the N-terminal presumably form a signal for membrane translocation and six cystein residues are contained in the structure. S1 nuclease mapping indicated that transcription of cdd is initiated 17 base pairs upstream from the translational start. The structural characterization of the odd gene was performed.

  • The recombinant DNA pLR5cat_PSAB, in which pediocin PA-1 structural and immunity genes (pedAB) fused with the promoter and deduced signal sequence of an ${\alpha}$-amylase gene from a bifidobacterial strain were inserted in Escherichia coli-lactobacilli shuttle vector pLR5cat, was transferred to Lactobacillus reuteri KCTC 3679 and the transformant presented bacteriocin activity. The recombinant L. reuteri KCTC 3679 transformed with the shortened pLR5cat(S)_PSAB, where a nonessential region for the lactobacilli replicon was removed, also showed bacteriocin activity. The molecular mass of the secreted pediocin PA-1 from the recombinant bacteria was the same as that of native pediocin PA-1 (~4.6 kDa) from Pediococcus acidilactici K10 on a sodium dodecylsulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) gel. In cocultures with Listeria monocytogenes, the recombinant L. reuteri KCTC 3679 effectively reduced the viable cell count of the pathogenic bacterium by a 3 log scale compared with a control where L. monocytogenes was incubated alone.

  • A total of 10 cellulase-producing bacteria were isolated from soil samples irrigated with paper and pulp mill effluents. The sequencing of 16S rRNA gene revealed that all isolates belonged to different species of genus Bacillus. Among the different isolates, B. subtilis IARI-SP-1 exhibited a high degree of ${\beta}$-1,4-endoglucanase (2.5 IU/ml), ${\beta}$-1,4-exoglucanase (0.8 IU/ml), and ${\beta}$-glucosidase (0.084 IU/ml) activity, followed by B. amyloliquefaciens IARI-SP-2. CMC was found to be the best carbon source for production of endo/exoglucanase and ${\beta}$-glucosidase. The ${\beta}$-1,4-endoglucanase gene was amplified from all isolates and their deduced amino acid sequences belonged to glycosyl hydrolase family 5. Among the domains of different isolates, the catalytic domains exhibited the highest homology of 93.7%, whereas the regions of signal, leader, linker, and carbohydrate-binding domain indicated low homology (73-74%). These variations in sequence homology are significant and could contribute to the structure and function of the enzyme.

  • In the defence wireless communications, conventional Anti-Jamming techniques(Frequency Hopping/Spread Spectrum or Direct Sequence/Spread Spectrum) are used to overcome a intentional interfering signals which are single/multitone or partial band jammer etc. DS/SS techniques is very strong on tone jamming signal but not to be on a partial band jammer. So FH/SS AJ performances are expected method of an substitution of DS/SS, however FH/SS could not have good performance on some BMTJ(Band Multi-tone Jammer). So this paper proposes FH-CSS (Frequency Hopped - Chirp Spread Spectrum) to get more robustness against jammers(BMTJ, PBNJ) and analyze the AJ performances.

  • We compared the mRNA expression profile of the Harmonia axyridis larvae that were either untreated or treated with LPS. The extracted mRNAs were subjected to ACP RT-PCR analysis using a combination of arbitrary primers and oligo (dT) primer. Among the 47 DEGs differentially expressed, we identified a cDNA showing homology with defensin-like antibacterial peptide. The cDNA showed a putative 32-residue signal sequence and a 50-residue mature peptide named harmoniasin. We also investigated the antibacterial activity of the harmoniasin analog, which exhibited potent antibacterial activities against Gramnegative and -positive bacteria strains and it also evidenced no hemolytic activity.
