In this study HepG2 cells were used to express and purify HBV pol proteins. In order to facilitate purification of HBV pol proteins, HBV pol and its deletion mutants were fused to MBP (Maltose Binding Protein). As a result we successfully expressed and partially purified both wild type and mutant recombinant HBV pol proteins by using an amylose resin and anti-MBP antibody. In the case of wild type, the anti-MBP antibody detected three bands. One was full-length and the others were generated by proteolysis of the terminal domain region. The expressed MBP/POL proteins were localized both in the cytoplasm and in the perinuclear region. The purified proteins had polymerase activity toward an exogenous homo-polymer template. The MBP/POL protein also had DNA synthesis activity in vivo, since the MBP/POL expression construct was able to complement a HBV polymerase mutant in trans.

The mission of tilting train development project is enhancing the speed of transportation of railway passenger using existing infrastructure. The threat of this project is the tilting technology is newly incorporated to this project. To overcome the threat this project incorporate systems engineering technology to development tilting train system. The systems engineering process, which was used in this project, was performed in accordance with systems engineering standard EIA632. This paper shows the systems engineering technology which was used to develop the tilting train system specification. This paper also shows the requirement template which was developed to communicate and synthesis various specialty engineering.

There have been many questionnaires, catecholeamins analysis and bio-signal analysis to analyze human stress condition through out the years, and especially researches in bio-signal analysis have been actively increasing. The purpose of our research is Quantitative analysis of stress with synthesis of bio-signals. The stress status was estimated using the bio-signals and fuzzy theory which combines these signals and physiological knowledge. Stress was estimated by a 'coin-stacking' experiment with two type-relax and stress status. To do the experiment EMG, respiration, periphery temperature, heart rate and skin conductances were used to evaluate human stress stages. The system was tested to 10 healthy persons and achieved a template of a stress progress and stress variations were classified to 4 steps by continuous or rising status of stress progress.

To identify a non-acylguanidine NHE-1 inhibitor, an acylguanidne group was replaced with an imidazole group in the potent NHE-1 inhibitors with furan or benzothiphene core template, found from our previous studies. We synthesized and biologically evaluated 4-heteroaryl-2-amino-5-methylimidazole derivatives. All those imidazole compounds (16-18) represented the potent NHE-1 inhibitory activities, similar to the corresponding acylguanidine compounds.

Polypyrrole(PPy) nanotubules were formed within template pores by chemical synthesis using $FeCl_3$ as an oxidant. The oxidation peak of PPy nanotubules in the cyclic voltammogram was observed at about 2.8V and 3.3V vs. $Li/Li^+$, while in the case of PPy film, that was observed at about 3.0V. It suggests that the electron hopping on the main chain of PPy nanotubules was improved. When the PPy nanotubules was used to a cathode of lithium secondary battery, we obtained discharge capacity as much as 27 mAh/g, and initial coulomb efficiency by 90%. We expect that the capacity can be improved by further study.

In this paper, we present a method of generating intonation contour for Korean text-to-speech (TTS) system and a method of synthesizing emotional speech, both based on Soft template mark-up language (Stem-ML), a novel prosody generation model combining mark-up tags and pitch generation in one. The evaluation shows that the intonation contour generated by Stem-ML is better than that by our previous work. It is also found that Stem-ML is a useful tool for generating emotional speech, by controling limited number of tags. Large-size emotional speech database is crucial for more extensive evaluation.

Molecular electronics has been the subject of intese research for many years because of the fundamental interest in molecular charge transport and potential applications, such as (bio)nanosensors and molecular memory devices. Molecular electronics requires a method for making reliable eletrical contacts to singlemolecules. To date, several approaches have been reported: scanning-probe microscopy, mechanical break junctions, nano patterning, and direct deposition of electrode on a self-assembled monolayers. However, most methods are laborious and difficult for large-scale application and more importantly, cannot control the number of moleucles in the junction. Recently, DNA has been used as a template for metallic nanostructures (e.g., Ag, Pd, and Au nanowires) through DNA metallization process. Furthermore, oligodeoxynucleotides have been tethered to organic molecules by using conventional organic reactions. Collectively, these techniques should provide an efficient route toward reliable and reproducible molecular electronic devices with large-scale fabrication. Therefore, I will present a paradigm for the fabrication of moleuclar electronic devices by using micrometer-sized DNA-singe organic molecule and DNA triblock structures.

Square planar nickel(II) complexes with various 1-alkyl derivatives of the 14-membered pentaaza macrocycle 8-methyl-8-nitro-1,3,6,10,13-pentaazacyclotetradecane can be readily prepared by two-step metal template condensation reactions of ethylenediamine, nitroethane, formaldehyde, and appropriate primary alkylamines. In coordinating solvents the nickel (II) complexes form octahedral species containing two axially coordinated solvent molecules and thus show square planar-octahedral equilibrium. The properties of the pentaaza macrocyclic complexes are considerably different from those of the complexes of analogous hexaaza and tetraaza macrocyclic complexes. Synthesis, characterization, and spectroscopic and chemical properties of the new complexes are described.

New copper(Ⅱ) complex of the pentaaza non-macrocyclic ligand 1-(2-aminoethyl)-3-(N-{2-aminoethyl}aminomethyl)-1,3-diazacyclohexane (2) and a dinuclear copper(Ⅱ) compex of the bis(macrocyclic) ligand 3, in which two 1,5,8,10,12,15-hexaazabicyclo[11.3.11.5]heptadecane subunits are linked together by an ethylene chain through the uncoordinated nitrogen (N10) atoms, have been prepared selectively by the reaction of the metal ion, 1,4,8-triazaoctane, ethylenediamine, and formaldehyde. The dinuclear complex [Cu2(3)]4+ has been also prepared by the reaction of [Cu(2)]2+ with ethylenediamine and formaldehyde. The reaction products largely depend on the molar ratio of the reactants employed. The mononuclear complex or each macrocyclic subunit of the dinuclear complex contains one 1,3-diazacyclohexane ring and has a square-planar geometry with a 5-6-5 or 5-6-5-6 chelate ring sequence. In acidic solution, the copper(Ⅱ) complex of 2 dissociates more slowly than those of other related non-cyclic polyamines.
