The biological interpretation of two-dimensional (2D) gel electrophoresis experiments is a key step toward understanding the functions of biological systems. We here present a web-based integrated database, called 2DSpotDB, for the management of proteome data derived from several pathogens. The 2DSpotDB was established as a part of the management of a pathogen proteome project at the Korea National Institute of Health. The goals of the 2DSpotDB implementation are to store and define important pathogen genes, retrieve information obtained by 2D polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and mass spectrometry, and create an integrated system to provide pathogen proteome information for biological scientists. This database currently contains 14 gels and information on 387 protein spots, among which 329 proteins were identified and annotated.

To investigate the svnthyesis of muscle proteins during differentiation of chicken myoblast, cvtosolic and membrane fractions were used for both sodium dodecvl sulfate polvcrylamide gel eBectrophoresis and two-dimensional gel electrophoresis. An extensive cell fusion was observed in 4 day culture. In the protein pattern of the cvtosolic fraction from SDS-PAGE. several protein bands including 250 kDa and 46 kDa showed remarkable changes during culture. the protein of 46 kDa was the most prominent one ann its optical density was the highest in 5 day culture (OD = 1.30). In the membrane fraction, band of 19.8 kDa showed the highest absorbance with 0.93 OD at 12 hr after initial plating and decreased gradually thereafter to 0.23 in 5 nay culture. From the results of two-dimensional gel electrophoresis of cytosolic fraction, the 46 kDa spot was observed as ko separated forms from culture 2 nary culture, and the sixte of this spot was the largest in 5 nay culture. In the pattern of membrane protein, the extensive appearance of newiv synthesized Proteins was found in a naut culture, but no Prominent spot was observed throughout culture. From the results of the present clay, we found that, during myoblast differentiation, the most prominent proteins were bands of 46 kDa and 19.8 kDa in cvtosolic and membrane fraction, respectively, and the appearance of new proteins was initiated at 48 hr after initial plating, and the 46 kDa protein was predominant in the cytoplasm of late culture in which extensive cell fusion was observed.

근육의 생화학적 특성을 단백질 수준에서 분석하기 위하여 3원교잡종 돼지 3개체를 선발하고, white muscle은 longissimus dorsi muscle을 red muscle은 soleus muslce을 분리하여 분석에 이용하였다. 각 근육조직은 수용성, 불수용성 단백질 및 총단백질로 분리하여 추출하였고, 이차원전기영동 분석을 위하여 17cm 길이의 immobilized pH gradient strip (Bio-Rad, 3-10NL)과 12% acrylamide gel을 이용하여 전개하였다. 각각의 gel은 coomassie stain과 silver stain을 통하여 가시화 하였고, PDQuest software을 통하여 단백질 발현양상을 분석하였다. 하나의 gel에서 평균 600개 이상의 단백질 spot을 관찰하였으며, 반복실험을 통하여 white muscle과 red muscle간에 발현의 차이를 보이는 5개의 단백질 spot을 확인할 수 있었다. 5개의 spot 중 4개의 단백질은 측정된 분자량과 pI값이 troponin I, T 및 myoglobin의 수치값과 유사한 것으로 확인되었다. 그러나, 1개의 spot은 오차범위 내에서 유사한 단백질을 확인할 수 없었다. 5개의 단백질 spot중 1개(spot 1)는 white muscle에서, 4개의 spot(spot 2～5)은 red muscle에서 높게 발현됨을 확인하였으며, 특히 spot 4의 경우 white muscle 보다 red muscle에서 평균 14.6배 높게 발현됨을 확인하였다. 본 연구는 근육의 생화학적 특성을 이해하는데 중요한 기초 자료로 활용될 수 있으며, 앞으로 white muscle과 red muscle의 단백질 발현 분석을 통하여 단백질 수준에서의 생화학적 특성에 관한 연구가 충분히 진행되어야 할 것이다.

Elecrophoreticl analysis of a 36 kDa protein was runned by SDS-PAGE, isoelectric focusing (IEF) and two dimensional electrophoresis pattern. Major 36 kDa and 25, 46, 48, 66 kDa protein were detected by Coomassie blue stain on SDS-PAGE. Major 36kDa protein was eluted for production of antiserum for serological analysis, IEF and two dimensional electrophoresis. Isoelectric point of 36kDa was aout pH 8.5. Two dimensional electrophoresis of eluted 36kDa showed one point on the gel. Anti-36 kDa serum made by newzilland rabbit for serological test. In ELISA, final titer of antibody was 100×{TEX}$2^5}${/TEX} : 1. Neutralize ability of serum was examined by slide agglutination test and colonization test in rat. Anti-36 kDa serum agglutinated whole cell of V. vulnificus were inhibited colonization on intestine in rat. Accordingly In this paper contain some electrophoretical analysis and serological test of a 36 kDa OMP of V. vulnificus.

Artificially oxidized cysteine residues in peroxiredoxin 6 (Prx6) were detected by electrospray interface capillary liquid chromatography-linear ion trap mass spectrometry after the preparation of two-dimensional gel electrophoresis (2D-GE). We used Prx6 as a model protein because it possesses only two cysteine residues at the 47th and 91st positions. The spot of Prx6 on 2D-GE undergoes a basic (isoelectric point, pI 6.6) to acidic (pI 6.2) shift by exposure to peroxide due to selective overoxidation of the active-site cysteine Cys-47 but not of Cys-91. However, we detected a tryptic peptide containing cysteine sulfonic acid at the 47th position from the basic spot and a peptide containing both oxidized Cys-47 and oxidized Cys-91 from the acidic spot of Prx6 after the separation by 2D-GE. We prepared two types of oxidized Prx6s: carrying oxidized Cys-47 (single oxidized Prx6), and other carrying both oxidized Cys-47 and Cys-91 (double oxidized Prx6). Using these oxidized Prx6s, the single oxidized Prx6 and double oxidized Prx6 migrated to pIs at 6.2 and 5.9, respectively. These results suggest that oxidized Cys-47 from the basic spot and oxidized Cys-91 from the acidic spot are generated by artificial oxidation during sample handling processes after isoelectric focusing of 2D-GE. Therefore, it is important to make sure of the origin of cysteine oxidation, if it is physiological or artificial, when an oxidized cysteine residue(s) is identified.

Molecular assembling is one of the current interests in the field of bottom-up nanotechnology. Self-assembled monolayers of sulfur-containing molecules or supramolecular assemblies via surface sol-gel processes formed on conductive supports are chemically robust and can be easily fabricated without sophisticated instruments. We have fabricated various types of molecular assemblies consisting of donor-acceptor pairs on the surfaces of gold and indium-tin-oxide electrodes. Build-up of three-dimensional multi structures consisting of thiol dyes and gold nanoparticles also has been successful. These assemblies showed clear photocurrent responses in photoelectro-chemical cells. In this article, we will describe recent progress on photoelectric conversion using molecular assemblies especially focused on our research results.

Dung beetle larvae at the $3^{rd}$ instar were injected with lipopolysaccaride and inducible proteins were examined within a pI level of 3-10 and a size level by proteomics, including 1-D SDS PAGE analysis and antibacterial assay. The immune infected larvae extracts provided seven protein bands in one-dimensional electrophoresis and its antibacterial activity also checked. Hemolymph protein from immune infected larvae of the dung beetle were separated by twodimensional gel electrophoresis and compared with those from native larvae. In 2-D gel electrophoresis, we detected 63 immune infected unique and 32 up-regulated proteins, and 36 proteins that were down-regulated or not present in treated gel. Ten protein spots from unique proteins and those presented as different level of abundance in infected and native larvae were specially expressed. These differentially expressed proteins were proposed to be involved in the defense mechanism against microorganism.

단백질 분석에 사용하는 이차원 젤 영상에서 단백질은 반점으로 나타난다. 같은 세포에서 추출한 두 젤 영상을 비교하면 같은 단백질은 비슷한 위치의 반점으로 나타난다. 정상 세포와 암 세포의 젤 영상을 비교하면 달라진 단백질을 알 수 있으므로 이는 신약개발의 중요한 정보가 된다. 젤 영상은 생물학적 실험 방법으로 만들어지므로 반점의 위치가 일정하지 않아 자동으로 정합하기 매우 어렵고, 이 문제는 NP-hard임이 밝혀졌다. NP-hard 문제를 푸는 방법으로 신경회로망이 널리 쓰이므로 그 중 젤 영상 정합에 적당한 홉필드 신경망으로 문제를 해결하였다. 두 젤 영상의 반점의 위치와 거리를 매개변수로 하는 에너지 함수를 정의하였고, 이 에너지 함수가 최소로 되는 두 반점이 같은 단백질이라 판정한다. 에너지 함수는 검토중인 반점뿐만 아니라 이웃한 반점도 함께 검사하도록 하여 단순한 거리 개념만이 아니라 전체 반점의 형태를 반영하도록 하였다.
