Some effects of dietary conditions on the metabolism of nucleic acid and protein in organs of the Albino Rats have been studied. The young rats to be examined were fed on the control diet and the diets deprived of one component among protein, carbohydrate, and lipid, such as protein free diet (PF: 432 kcal/100g) carbohydrate free diet (CF: 432kcal/100g), and lipid free diet (LF: 392kcal/100g) for three, seven, and fifteen days, respectively. The contents of DNA and RNA in the liver and the brain, and also those of protein-nitrogen(PN) and nonprotein-nitrogen (NPN) in the live, the brain, and the serum have been measured. The results are as followe: 1. The contents of DNA per gram of liver were increased by feeding on protein free diet. It is concluded that the critical factor for the result is not the increase in the rates of DNA syntheses, but the decrease in the turnover rates of DNA. 2. The metabolism of DNA in the liver showed the normal status by feeding on carbohydrate free diet. On the other hand, the rates of DNA syntheses were increased by feeding on lipid free diet. 3. The rates of DNA syntheses in the brain were decreased by feeding on the unbalanced diet, such as protein free, carbohydrete free, and lipid free diet. 4. In the liver and the brain, the rates of DNA syntheses were decreased by feeding on protein free diet. But the rates showed the normal status by feeding on the carbohydrate free diet, and also showed the similar metabolism to that in the case of the control group by feeding on lipid free diet. 5. In the liver, the rates of protein syntheses were decreased, whereas the contents of nonprotein-nitrogen were increased by feeding on protein free diet. 6. In the liver and the brain, the protein syntheses showed the more increasing rates than the rates in the case of the control diet by feeding on lipid free diet. 7. In the serum, the contents of protein did not change in a short period, also the insufficient feeling on protein was examined. It is clear that in the liver the rates of protein syntheses are decreased and the rates of protein catabolism are increased, since the rates of nucleic acid syntheses are decreased by feeding on the protein free diet. On the other hand, it is considered that in the brain the turnover rates of protein does not have correlation with the rates of nucleic acid syntheses, also these are decreased by feeding on protein free diet. And also it is believed that the phenomena of homeostasis for carrying the normal metabolism of nucleic acid and protein in the liver and the brain are operated in a short period as possible, by feeding on carbohydrate free and lipid free diets.

When at liver homogenates were incubated with 1mM $CCl_4$ for five min, glycogen level was decreased, while treatment with protein fraction $G_4$ increased the glycogen level. In addition $G_4$ inhibited the phosphorylation of 34 KD and 118 KD polypeptides induced by $CCl_4$. These protein were more strongly phosphorylated by $Ca^{2+}$/calmodulin-dependent kinase than by C-kinase. Since 34 KD polypeptide was solely phosphorylated by NaF (50mM), an inhibitor of both glycogen syntheses and phosphoprotein phosphates, it is inferred that 3 KD polypeptide is glycogen synthase-likd protein. Because glycogen synthesis is inhibited by phosphorylation of $Ca^{2+}$-dependent glycogen syntheses, it is suggested that $G_4$ increased liver glycogen level by inhibiting phosphorylation of 34 KD polypeptide which is thought to glycogen syntheses-like protein.

본 연구는 고온 스트레스 하에 타우린 첨가가 육계의 간에서 heat shock protein 70(hsp 70) 및 cell free system 상태에서 단백질 합성에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. 공시동물은 1일령 육계 120수를 2주간 사육 후, 대조(CO, $24^{\circ}C$)와 고온스트레스 처리($34^{\circ}C$)에서 타우린을 공급하지 않은 처리구(HO)와 타우린 0.1%를 공급한 처리구(HT)로 나누어 3처리 4반복, 반복 당 10수씩 배치하였다. 고온 스트레스는 3, 6, 9, 12일간 진행하였다. 최종 체중과 간 무게는 HO와 HT가 CO보다 유의적으로 낮았다(P<0.05). 그러나 타우린을 첨가한 HT은 HO보다 유의적으로 높았다(P<0.05). 육계 간에서 hsp70 발현은 HO가 CO와 HT보다 유의적으로 높았으나(P<0.05), CO와 HT는 유의적인 차이가 없었다. In vitro 실험에서 고온 및 타우린은 21일령 육계 간의 총 단백질 합성률에 영향을 미치지 않았다. 따라서 타우린 섭취가 in vivo 육계의 성장에서 고온 스트레스를 완화시키지만, 생체 내의 단백질 합성에 직접적인 영향을 미치지 않는 것을 보이며, 이러한 결과는 타우린이 다양한 생리학적 기전을 통해 단백질 turnover 대사에 간접적으로 영향을 미칠 수 있다는 것으로 사료된다.

Effects of Lycii Fructus on primary cultured chicken embryonic brain cells were studied by microscopic observation, determination of the activity of pyruvate dehydrogenase complex (PDHC), and syntheses of protein, RNA and DNA. The brain cells were prepared from the brains or 10-day-old chicken embryos and cultured with a deficient medium. The activity of PDHC in the brain cells cultured with a deficient medium was increased to 1.8 times by the addition of $30\;{\mu}g/ml$ of the total methanol extract of Lycii Fructus. To seek the active fraction, total methanol extract was further fractionated by the polarity. The survival rate of neuronal cells was significantly increased by the addition of $100\;{\mu}g/ml$ of the buthanol or aqueous fraction. At this concentration, the significant increase of the syntheses of protein and RNA, but not of DNA, indicates that the fractions may act on the neuronal cells which are known to be non-dividing cells.

The site of the synthesis of Japanese encephalitis virus(JEV) in the actinomycin-treated and infecter PS Y15 cells(a porcine kidney stable cell line) was observed by the immunofluorescent antibody technique, acridine orange staining, and the autoradiographic analysis. In the parallel studies by immunofluorescent technique and acridine orange staining it the infected cells, Viral protein(as an antigen) and viral RNA were detected at the same site of cytoplasm. In the autoradiographic analysis, the cytoplasmic labeling of $^3H$-uridine was due to the synthesis of JEV-RNA, while the nucleolus and nucleus were not involved. In the autoradiographic studies on the secton of infected cells, the $^3H$-uridine was frequently incorporated around the cytoplasmic vacuoles. This localization of labeling agreed with the site of acridine orange positive granules. The results suggest that the syntheses of the viral RNA and viral protein occurred in the similar site of cytoplasm of the infected cells, and also the virus particles seem to be assembled in the sites of the viral RNA and protein syntheses.

성게의 일종인 Hemicentrotus pulcherrimus에서 수정전에 이미 축적되었던 mRNA의 활성화 변화를 알아보기 위하여 초기 발생동안의 RNA와 단백질 합성에 관하여 연구하였다. 미수정란에서는 RNA와 단백질의 합성들이 대단히 낮았다. 그러나 수정과 함께 RNA합성은 크게 변하지 않은 반면, 단백질합성은 크게 활성화되었다. RNA와 단백질 합성율이 병행적으로 변하지는 않지만, 포배와 낭배에서 크게 증가함을 볼 수 있었다. 단백질합성은 양적으로 뿐만 아니라 질적으로도 발생단계에 따라 변하는 사실을 이차원 전기영동에 의한 연구를 통하여 확인할 수 있었다.

In this study, we examined the expression of heat shock proteins (HSPs) in fish cell line CHSE-2lnl and human HeLa cells exposed to heat shock. In fish CHSE-214 cells HSP70 was the major polvpeptide induced by an elevated temperature or an amino acid analog, while in HeLa cells HSP90 as well as HSP70 were prominently enhanced in response to these stresses. Pretreatment of actinomvcin D prior to heat shock completely inhibited the induction of fish HSP70, indicating the transcriptional regulation of fish HSP70 gene expression. In HeLa and CHSE-214 cells either recovering from heat shock or experiencing prolonged heat shock, attenuation in the HSP90 a'nd HSP70 induction occurred but both induction and repression of HSP70 synthesis appear 19 precede those of HSP90. Moreover, attenuation did not occur in the syntheses of 40 kDa and 42 kOto proteins which were only induced in CHSE-214 cells. The enhanced syntheses of these he proteins continued as long as CHSE-214 cells were Siven heat shock. These results suggest that down-regulation of HSP syntheses during prolonged heat shock may be controlled by several different. as vet undefined, mechanisms.

1. We have established a model system to study sodium chloride, an environmental factor, induced gene regulations. 2. ${\alpha}$ENaC, cox-2, and c-fos genes are regulated by sodium chloride at mRNA level as well as at protein level. 3. Regulation of ${\alpha}$ENaC requires syntheses of new protein(s). 4. COX-2 may have a important role for homeostasis in hypertonic situation.

성장인자가 포함되지 않은 무기염 액체배지(ISP-4)에서 Streptomyces coelicolor A3(2)의 포자가 발아할 때, 성장인자의 주기적인 요구성이(양 등,1993_ 단백질과 RNA 합성과 어떤 관계를 가지고 있는지를 규명하고자 하ㅣ였다. 발아는 10시간 정도 걸렸으며 이때 성장인자의 요구성이 2시간 주기로 반복되는 것을 재입증하였다. 포자의 크기는 시간에 따라 증가하였으나, 포자수는 표준 평판계수법에서 감소하였다. 포자 집단은 생리적으로 살아있거나, 휴면 중인 포자와 죽은 포자로 구분될 수 있었다. 이러한 발아과정에서 포자를 acridine orange(AO)와 iodonitrotetrazolium chloride(INT)로 염색하여 형광현미경으로 관찰하였을 때 RNA와 단백질도 일정한 주기를 갖고 합성되었으며, 이 주기성은 성장인자의 요구 주기와 거의 일치하였다. 이로써 발아 초기에 포자 집단은 성장인자 중에서 특히 단백질 합성과 관련된 물질인 아미노산이 주기적으로 요구되고 있음을 토론하였다.

Using the Chlorella cells which had been uniformly labeled with $^{32}P$, the distribution of phosphorus in various fractions of cell material was investigated. Uniformly $^{32}P$-labeled Chlorella cells were further grown in a P-free medium, and some protions of the cells were taken out at intervals during the culture, and subjected to analyze the contents of $^{32}P$ in various fractins of the cell constituents. 2. Analysis of the $^{32}P$-labeled Chlorella cells showed that the highest in P-content was the fraction of RNA followed by those of lipid, RNA-polyphosphate complex, acid-insoluble polyphosphate, acid-soluble polyphosphate, DNA and protein. 3. During the culture of $^{32}P$-labeled Chlorella cells in a P-free medium, amounts of phosphate in DNA, protein and lipid fractions increased, while the P-contents in the fraction of RNA-polyphosphate complex decreased as well as those of acid-insoluble polyphosphate and acid-soluble polyphosphate fractions. 4. It was inferred that phosphorus used in the syntheses of DNA and protein was taken from polyphosphates of the cells, and RNA-polyphosphate complex would play an important role as a phosphate pool.
