Using differential hybridization, a cDNA clone was isolated fortuitously from Amaranthus viridis and sequenced. This nucleotide sequence exhibited 55.1% identity with vma6 which encodes the 36-kD subunit of the vacuolar proton transporting ATPase in Saccharmoyces cerevisiae. The predicted open reading frame encodes a protein of 221 amino acid sequence with a calculated molecular weight of 25,452 and reveals high levels of similarity with subunit D polypeptide of vacuolar H -ATP(e.g., 48.5, 52.1 and 49.3% identity to the vacuolar 36-kD chain of yeast, vacuolar 32-kD polypeptide IV of human and vacuolar 28-kD protein of bovine chromaffin granules, respectively). The hydropathy index computation revealed that this predicted protein is a peripheral protein. These results indicated that the predicted protein may play a sturctural role in the vaculor H -ATPase as does gamma subunit in V-type ATPase.

The amino acid sequence of basic isozyme 55 of Horseradish Peroxidase (HRP E5) was determined by protein sequencing. HRP E5 consisted about 300 residues, and has a molecular weight of approximately 36,000 $\pm$ 500 dalton. The protein was rich In aspartic acid (14%), arginine(13%), and leucine(11%). The primary structure of HRP E5 was established by sequencing its tryptic (T1-T19) and lysylendopeptic (Al-A3) peptides. The sequence homology between HRP E5 and HRP C (neutral isozyme of horseradish peroxidase) is found to be more than 66%. The highest concentration of identical residues are found on residues 29~56, 90~123, and 155~173, but relatively low on 174~271.

A. niger의 GOD(Glucose Oxidase) 대량생산과 효율적인 분비를 protein의 대량생산에 많이 사용되는 strain인 S. cerevisiae에서 시도하였다. S. cerevisiae의 ADH1과 GAL 10 promotor, 그리고 ${alpha}$-MF signal sequence와 A. oryzae의 ${alpha}$-amylase signal sequence 및 S. cerevisiae의 GAL7과 A. niger의 GOD terminator를 이용하여 4개의 expression vector를 합성한 후 S. cerevisiae 2805에 auxotroph 방법으로 형질변환시켰다. 변이체들을 배양하여 세포내와 세포외의 GOD활성도를 분석한 결과 GAL 10 promotor가 삽입된 pGAL변이체들이 ADH1 promotor가 삽입된 pADH 변이체들 보다 GOD 생산성이 높았다. GAL 10 promotor와 A. oryzae의 ${alpha}$-amylase signal sequence가 삽입된 pGALGO2에서 115시간 배양시 GOD의 생산이 가장 높았다($GOD_{total}$: 10.3 unit/mL, $GOD_{ex}$: 8.7 unit/mL). 이 수치는 같은 promotor인 GAL 10 promotor와 ${alpha}$-MF signal sequence가 삽입된 pGALGO1보다 3배정도 높다. 이 결과는 ADH 1 promotor를 사용하였을 경우에도 일치하였다. 또한 A. oryzae의 ${alpha}$-amylase signal sequence가 S. cerevisiae의 ${alpha}$-MF signal sequence보다 GOD를 더 효과적으로 분비시켰다. 상기 결과로 미루어 보면 signal sequence가 단백질의 분비 외에도 단백질 합성에도 많은 영향을 주는 것으로 추측된다. pGALGO1과 pGALGO2의 GOD분비효율은 각각 89%, 84%이었다. S. cerevisiae에서는 일반적으로 과당화가 일어나기 때문에 S. cerevisiae에서 합성된 재조합 GOD의 분자량은 250 kDa으로 A. niger의 GOD(170 kDa)보다 더 컸다.

The aminoglycoside multiple-resistance determinant from Streptoalloteichus hindustanus was cloned into Streptomyces lividans and named nbrB. The 1.2-kb ApaI- BclI fragment encompassing nbrB was located within a 2.6-kb ApaI fragment by successive subcloning experiments. The complete DNA nucleotide sequence of 1.2-kb containing nbrB was determined. The sequence contains an open reading frame that putatively encodes a polypeptide of 281 amino acids with a predicted molecular weight of 30,992. The deduced amino acid sequence of nbrB shows identities of 85.1% to kgmB of S. tenebrarius, 59.6% to sgm of Micromonospora zionensis, and 57.7% to grm of M. rosea. The similarity of nbrB to kgmB suggests that nbrB encodes a 16S rRNA methylase similar to that encoded by kgmB and that both genes might be derived from a common ancestral gene.

The nucleotide sequence of the xylanase gene (xynS) from alkali-tolerant Bacillus sp. YA.14 was determined and analyzed. A 639 base pairs open reading frame for xynS gene was observed and encoded for a protein of 213 amino acids with a molecular weight of 23, 339. S1 nuclease mapping showed that the transcription initiation site of the xynS gene did not exist in the cloned DNA. Ribosome binding site sequence with the free energy of -18.8 Kcal/mol was observed 8 base pairs upstream from the initiation codon, ATG. The proposed signal sequence consisted of 28 amino acids, of which 3 were basic amino acid residues and 21 were hydrophobic amino acid residues. When the amino acid sequences of xylanases were compared, Bacillus sp. YA-14 xylanase showed 48% homology with Bacillus sp. YC-335 xylanase and 96% homology with xylanases from B. subtilis and B. circulans.

An efficient method was developed in this study to obtain optimal stacking sequences, thicknesses, and minimum weights of stiffened laminated composite shells under combined loading conditions and stiffener layouts using genetic algorithms (GAs) and finite element analyses. Among many parameters in designing composite laminates determining a optimal stacking sequence that may be formulated as an integer programming problem is a primary concern. Of many optimization algorithms, GAs are powerful methodology for the problem with discrete variables. In this paper the optimal stacking sequence was determined, which gives the maximum critical buckling load factor and the minimum weight as well. To solve this problem, both the finite element analysis by ABAQUS and the GA-based optimization procedure have been implemented together with an interface code. Throughout many parametric studies using this analysis tool, the influences of stiffener sizes and three different types of stiffener layouts on the stacking sequence changes were throughly investigated subjected to various combined loading conditions.

The nucleotide sequence of the xylanase gene (xynY) from alkalophilic Bacillus sp. YC-335 was determined and analyzed. An open reading frame of 1, 062 base pairs for xynY gene was observed and encoded for a protein of 354 amino acids with a molecular weight of 38, 915. S1 nuclease mapping showed that the transcription initiation sites of the xynY gene were different in Bacillus sp. YC-335 and Escherichia coli HB101 (pYS55). S1 mapping also showed that -10 region of the xynY gene recognized by RNA polymerases of E. coli and Bacillus sp. YC-335 were TACAGT and TATGAT , respectively. A ribosome binding site sequence with the free energy of -17.0 Kcal/mol was observed 9 base pairs upstream from the unusual initiation codon, TTG. The proposed signal sequence consisted of 27 amino acids, 2 of which were basic amino acid residues and 21 were hydrophobic amino acid residues. When the amino acid sequences of xylanases were compared, Bacillus sp. YC-335 xylanase showed more than 50% homology with xylanases from B. pumilus, B. subtilis, and B. circulans.

A gene coding for triosephosphate isomerase (TPI) from a rat skeletal muscle cDNA library was cloned and its nucleotide sequence was determined. The 1, 348-bp cDNA clone contains 24 bp $5^I$ noncoding region, the entire 750 bp coding region corresponding to a protein of 249 amino acids, $547bp 3^I$ noncoding region and part of a poly(A) tail. It also contains a polyadenylation signal, AATAAA, starting from 17 bp upstream of the poly(A) tail. The calculated molecular weight of rat TPI is 27.8 kDa and the net charge is +4. The deduced amino acid sequence from rat TPI CDNA sequence has 93% and 94% homology with that of mouse and human clones, respectively. The amino acids at the residue of Asn12, Lys14, His96, Glu 166, His96, His101, Ala177, Tyr165, Glu13O, Tyr2O9, and Ser212 in catalytic site are completely identical, confirming that the functional residues in TPI proteins are highly conserved throughout evolution. The most profound characteristic of rat TPI enzyme, compared with other TPIs, is that there are five cysteine substitutions at the residue of 21, 27, 159, 195 and 204. A Glu123 instead of Gly was found in rabbit, rhesus, mouse and human sequences. Through the method of RT-PCR, the mRNA transcription level of TPI gene was found to be different among various tissues and was highest in muscle.
