박테리오신의 일종인 leucocin A를 생산하는 효모의 제작을 위하여 117 bp 길이의 개시코돈과 종지코돈을 포함하는 leucocin A 유전자를 합성하여 효모운반체인 pAUR123에 클로닝하였다. 형질전환된 효모는 부패균의 일종인 고초균(Bacillus subtilis)에 대해 항균활성을 나타냈다. 형질전환 효모로부터 분리한 플라스미드를 주형으로 하고 leucocin A에 특이적인 primer들을 이용하여 PCR 반응을 행한 결과, 효모에 도입된 leucocin A 유전자를 확인할 수 있었다. 이 연구의 결과로 부패하기 쉬운 식품들의 보존성을 향상시키거나, 내성이 생긴 병원균의 생육을 저해하기 위한 항생제로 사용할 수 있는 박테리오신을 산업적으로 생산할 수 있는 효모세포를 제작하였다.

For the construction of plasmid and bmNPV sarrying the FRT recognition site for the FLP recombinases, we synthesized the wild type FRT dligonucleotides. The target FRT sequences consist of three 13bp repeated DNA sequences; two repeats in a direct orientation and one inverted relative to the other two. In addition, there is an 8bp spacer region between the repeats which determune the orientation of the FRT recombination site. In order to place the FRT site both in target BmNPV genome and the transfer vector, we constructed a plasmid, FRT site both in the target BmNPv genome and the transfer vector, we constructed a plasmid, pFRT$\beta$-gal, carrying the FRT sites within the cloning sites of pSV vector and a recombinant BmNPV, vFRTPH, carrying the FRT sites at a downstream of polyhedrin promotor, respectively. In order to test the functionality of the FLP/FRT site-specific recombination system, vFRTPH, pFRT$\beta$-gal and pHsFLP DNA were co-transfected into BmN-4 cells. The resulting recombinant virus was designated a vFRT$\beta$2-gal. From construction analysis of the vFRT$\beta$2-gal with PCR technique it was concluded that the entire pFRT$\beta$-gal plasmid with $\beta$-galactosidase gene and origines of replication flanked by two functional hybrid FRT sequences. The efficiency of recombination was 8.7%, which was higher than that(2.2%) of recombination between a conventional transfer vector and the wild type BmNPV.

A cDNA coding alkaline phosphatase (AP) homologue was isolated from a cDNA library of Schizosaccharomyces pombe by colony hybridization. The nucleotide sequence of the cloned cDNA appeared to lack the N-terminal coding region. The genomic DNA encoding alkaline phosphatase homologue was isolated from S. pombe chromosomal DNA using PCR. The amplified DNA fragment was ligated into plasmid pRS315 to generate the recombinant plasmid pSW20. The DNA insert was subcloned as two smaller fragments for nucleotide sequencing. The sequence contains 2,789 by and encodes a protein of 532 amino acids with a molecular mass of 58,666 daltons. The S. pombe cells containing plasmid pSW20 showed much higher AP activity compared with the yeast cells with vector only This indicates that the cloned AP gene apparently encodes AP The predicted amino acid sequence of the S. pombe AP shares homology with those of other known APs.

Streptomyces bobili (YS-40) 의 Hg, Ag, penicillin-G, ampicillin, chloramphenicol, oxytetracycline, streptomycin, kanamycin에 대한 생육최소저해농도는 각각 15, 10, >3,000, >100, >1,000. >100. <5, <5 $\mu\textrm{g}$/$m\ell$였으며 본 균주의 R-plasmid를 제거시키기 위하여 ethidium bromide, acriflavine, sodium dodecyl sulfate 등의 curing agent를 처리시킨 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. Ethidium bromide를 10$\mu\textrm{g}$/$m\ell$의 농도로 처리했을 때 98.0% 정도의 R-plasmid를 제거시킬 수 있었다. pH 7.0에서 curing시킴으로서 R-plasmid가 가장 잘 제거되었으며 분균을 24시간동안 배양해서 curing시킴으로서 R-plasmid의 제거율이 가장 높게 나타났다. Ethidium bromide에 의해서 R-plasmid가 제거된 균과 원균을 여러가지 색소생성배지에서 배양시켜 배양상의 특성을 조사해 본 결과 peptone-beef extract agar 배지에서 aerial mass color가 greyish pink에서 grey로 변했으며 tryptone-yeast extract broth에서 배지에서 soluble pigment가 pale brown에서 무색으로 변했다. 이 결과로는 aerial mycelium, melanin 생성과 R-plasmid 는 무관하다고 추측된다.

효모균에서의 유전자 재조합에 의한 단백절 생산에 미치는 유전학적, 환경적인 요인의 영향을 연구하였. Plasmid 안정도와 개수는 $REP^+$ 체계 에서 대단히 높은 반면, rep 체계에서는 매우 낮았다. $2{\mu}m$ circle plasmid genome을 포함하는 plasmid의 경우에 있어서. $[cir^o]$ 형 세포에서의 plasmid 안정도와 개수가 $[cir^+]$형 세포에서보다 높기때문에 $[cir^+o]$형 세포가 더 선호되는 세포였다. 유전자 발현은 plasmid 개수와 안정도에 좌우 되었다. 촉진제의 양이 유전자 발현에 매우 중요 한 역할을 했다. 유전자 발현의 촉진에 필요한 g떠actose의 농도는 0.8% 이 변 충분했다. 높은 안정 도와 개수를 갖는 plasmid의 경우 촉진속도는 매우 빨랐다. Galactose가 배양의 시작부분부터 첨가 될 때가 mid-exponential ph잃e에 첨가될 때보다 유전자 발현의 극대점에 이르는 시간이 걸었다. 상대적 촉진제의 양이 증가함에 따라 glucc잉e억제 현상은 감소되었다.

To examine whether the signal sequence of Bacillus endo-1, 4-glucanase can act functionally in a yeast, a lower eucaryote, two recombinant plasmids were constructed and introduced into Saccharomyces cerevisiae: recombinant plasmid pGCMC10 containing the complete signal sequence of Bacillus endoglucanase, and pGCMC11 without the signal sequence. Secretion of endoglucanase into culture medium was obtained with the yeast transformant containing plasmid pGCMC10. The secreted endoglucanase was glycosylated and was apparently processed to be about 36 kilodaltons (KDa) and 43KDa proteins. The glycosylated endoglucanase from yeast transformant was more thermostable than the nonglycosylated endoglucanase from Escherichia coli transformant.

The expression of the mouse $\alpha-amylase$ gene in the methylotrophic yeast, P pastoris was investigated. The mouse $\alpha-amylase$ gene was inserted into the multi-cloning site of a Pichi a expression vector, pPIC9, yielding a new expression vector pME624. The plasmid pME624 was digested with SalI or BglII, and was introduced into P. pastoris strain GSl15 by the PEG1000 method. Fifty-three transformants were obtained by the transplacement of pME624 digested with SaiII or BglII into the HIS4locus $(38\;of\;Mut^+\;clone)$ or into the AOX1 locus $(15\;of\;Mut^s\;clone)$. Southern blot was carried out in 11 transformants, which showed that the mouse $\alpha-amylase$ gene was integrated into the Pichia chromosome. When the second screening was performed in shaker culture, transformant G2 showed the highest $\alpha-amylase$ activity, 290 units/ml after 3-day culture, among 53 transformants. When this expression level of the mouse $\alpha-amylase$ gene is compared with that in recombinant Saccharomyces cerevisiae harboring a plasmid encoding the same mouse $\alpha-amylase$ gene, the specific enzyme activity is eight fold higher than that of the recombinant S. cerevisiae.

담수 식물 수초의 근계에 부착하는 미생물 중 중금속에 높은 저항성을 가지는 균을 분리하고 이들 중 Enterobacter cloaceae K41를 대상으로 생육최적조건을 검토한 결과는 LB배지에 $1\%$ yeast extract, $1\%$ lactose, $1\%$ NaCl, pH7.0, 최적 온도는 $37^{\circ}C$, 24시간 진탕배양 이었으며 중금속 첨가 시에는 침전을 막기 위하여 Nutrient 배지로 대체하였다. 이 분리균주와 표준균주인 Enterobacter cloaceae KCTC2519를 대상으로 중금속인 구리와 카드뮴이온에 대한 최소생육저지농도(MIC)를 비교한 결과 분리균주인 E. cloacear K41은 구리는 150 ppm, 카드뮴은 50 ppm농도까지 생육이 확인되었으나 표준균주는 구리 50ppm에서 생육이 확인되었으나 카르뮴이나 두 혼합 중금속에서는 확인되지 않는 차이를 나타내었다. 두 균주를 대상으로 유전적 성상을 비교한 결과 분리균주에선 plasmid가 검출되었으나 표준균주에는 없었다. 그리고 분리균주에서 6.4Kb 절편의 plasmid를 분리하여 구리, 카드뮴의 중금속에 민감한 균주인 E, coli $DH5{\alpha}$에 형질전환 시켜 생육에 영향을 미치는 정도를 비교하였다. 그 결과 형질전환 균주의 두 중금속에 대 한 최소생육저지농도가 구리는 7배, 카드뮴은 6배로 증가한 것을 알 수 있었다. 또한 중금속 흡착률은 형질전환 균주가 E. ccli $DH5{\alpha}$보다 구리가 1.3배, 카드뮴은 1.5배 증가함을 알 수 있었다. 따라서 이 plasmid가 중금속 저항성을 증가시키는데 관여하는 것으로 보였다.

A yeast strain secreting glucoamylase was transformed with an expression vector (pMS12) containing the promoter of yeast alcohol dehydrogenase I gene ADC1, mouse salivary $\alpha$-amylase cDNA, and a segment of yeast $21\mu m$ plasmid. The transformed strain could produce ethanol from starch (4%, w/v) through a direct one-step process with the conversion efficiency of 93.2%, during 5 days of fermentation, while the original, untransformed strain exhibited a conversion efficiency of 38.1% under the same condition. When the regulatory site of the ADC1 promoter region was removed, the production of ethanol increased to 29~37% in the presence of exogenous 3%(v/v) ethanol in the fermentation medium.

The fission yeast cells that contained the cloned glutathione synthetase (GS) gene showed 1.4-fold higher glutathione (GSB) content and 1.9-fold higher GS activity than the cells without the cloned GS gene. Interestingly, $\gamma$-glutamylcysteine synthetase activity increased 2.1-fold in the S. pombe cells that contained the cloned GS gene. The S. pombe cells that harbored the multi copy-number plasmid pRGS49 (containing the cloned GS gene) showed a higher level of survival on solid media with cadmium chloride (1 mM) or mercuric chloride ($10\;{\mu}M$) than the cells that harbored the YEp357R vector. The 506 bp upstream sequence from the translational initiation point and N-terminal8 amino acid-coding region were fused into the promoteriess $\beta$-galactosidase gene of the shuttle vector YEp367R to generate the fusion plasmid pUGS39. Synthesis of $\beta$-galactosidase from the fusion plasmid pUGS39 was significantly enhanced by cadmium chloride and NO-generating S-nitroso-N-acetylpenicillamine (SNAP) and sodium nitroprusside (SN). It was also induced by L-buthionine-(S,R)-sulfoximine, a specific inhibitor of $\gamma$-glutamylcysteine synthetase (GCS). We also found that the expression of the S. pombe GS gene is regulated by the Atf1-Spc1-Wis1 signal pathway.
