The gene and genotypic frequencies of ${\kappa}$-casein (${\kappa}$-CN), ${\beta}$-lactoglobulin (${\beta}$-LG), growth hormone (bGH) and prolactin (bPRL) loci in Korean cattle were investigated using PCR-RFLP analyses. Genomic DNA samples were obtained from 290 cows and 30 AI bulls. In both cows and bulls, the most predominant genotypes of ${\kappa}$-CN, ${\beta}$-LG, bGH and bPRL loci were AB, BB, AA and AA, respecitively. The frequencies of A and B alleles for ${\kappa}$-CN locus were .612 and .388 for cows and .567 and .433 for bulls. The respective frequencies of A and B alleles for ${\beta}$-LG locus were .153 and .847 in cows and .217 and .783 in bulls. The frequencies of A and B alleles for bGH locus were .769 and .231 in cows and .784 and .216 in bulls, respectively. The frequencies of A and B alleles for bPRL locus were .678 and .322 for cows and .767 and .233 for bulls. Differences in frequencies of these alleles were not significant between cows and bulls at all loci examined. If the DNA polymorphisms of these candidate genes are associated with economically important traits, they could serve as genetic markers for genetic improvement in future marker-assisted selection programs in Korean cattle.

In this study, several factors were analyzed in an effort to determine the effects of transglutaminase (TGase) treatment on sodium caseinate (NaCN), ${\alpha}--lactalbumin$ (${\alpha}-La$), and ${\beta}-lactoglobulin$ (${\beta}-Lg$) polymerization reactions. The results of SDSPAGE showed that NaCN was slightly hydrolyzed to molecular weights of 50-400 kDa according to activation time. ${\alpha}-La$ formed high-molecular polymers of 30-300 kDa, whereas ${\beta}-Lg$ remained almost completely unhydrolyzed. Melting temperatures of NaCN, ${\alpha}-La$ with and without TGase were all in the range of $100{\pm}10^{\circ}C$ under the endothermic curve, and the melting temperature of ${\beta}-Lg$ with TGase was lower than that with TGase. When the proteins were incubated for 3 h with TGase, the micrographic structures showed a small quantity of sediment and broad layers. The final ${\alpha}-La$ residues remained at a level of 21.38%, and the TGase-treated ${\alpha}-La$ was confirmed to have undergone a profound loss of mass, to 18.25%. The DPPH-radical scavenging activity of NaCN and ${\beta}-Lg$ with TGase treatment was higher than that observed in the untreated sample, while those of ${\alpha}-La$ increased with concentration.

Milk protein polymorphisms were genotyped by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE) from 109 Maiwa and 100 Jiulong yaks. The relationships between milk protein polymorphisms and 3 milking traits were studied. The results showed that $\beta$-CN, $\kappa$-CN and $\alpha$-La were monomorphic, and ${\alpha}_{s1}$-CN and $\beta$-Lg were polymorphic, with ${\alpha}_{s1}$-CN D and $\beta$-Lg E as dominant genes, respectively. The frequencies of ${\alpha}_{s1}$-CN D were 0.8073 and 0.6000 in two populations and $\beta$-Lg E were 0.9770 and 0.9700. The mean heterozygosities were 0.1021 and 0.1867 in the two populations. No significant effects on milking traits and milk protein compositions were observed except for ${\alpha}_{s1}$-CN locus on fat percentage in Jiulong yak.

We examined the effect of green tea extract (GTE) and L-theanine combination on the $A{\beta}_{1-42}$-induced memory dysfunction. GTE and combination were administrated into mice for 3 weeks followed by injection of $A{\beta}_{1-42}$ to induce memory impairment. GTE and L-theanine administration significantly improved cognitive ability and reduced $A{\beta}_{1-42}$ level accompanied with the inhibition of neuronal cell death and activities of secretase. These results suggest that GTE and L-theanine combination may be a useful for preventing for the development or progression of Alzheimer's disease.

The detailed $^1$H and $^{13}$ C NMR assignments of a novel sucrose isovaleryl ester isolated from the seed of Euphorbia Lathyris L., were achieved by one-and two-dimensional techniques. The new sucrose ester was characterized as an $\alpha$-D-glucopyranoside, 3,4,6-tris-O-(3-methyl-1-oxobutyl)-$\beta$-D-fructofuranosyl, 2,6-bis(3-methylbutanoate); sucrose 4,7,8,11,12-pentaisovalerate by MS and NMR experiments.

Nitrile-forming eliminations from $(E)-2,4,6-(NO_2)_3C_6H_2CH=NOC_6H_4-2-X-4-NO_2$ (1) promoted by $R_3NH/R_3NH^+$ in 70 mol % MeCN(aq) have been studied kinetically. When X = $NO_2$, the reactions exhibited second-order kinetics as well as Br$\"{o}$nsted ${\beta}$ = 0.63 and ${\mid}{\beta}_{lg}{\mid}$ = 0.34-0.46, and an E2 mechanism is evident. As the leaving group was made poorer (X = H, Cl, and $CF_3$), Br$\"{o}$nsted ${\beta}$ value increased from 0.63 to 0.85-0.89 without much change in the ${\mid}{\beta}_{lg}{\mid}$ value E2, indicating that structure of the transition state changed to an E1cb-like with extensive $C_{\beta}-H$ bond cleavage, significant negative charge development at the ${\beta}$-carbon, and limited $C_{\alpha}$-OAr bond cleavage.

Various useful relations involving Hammett's and $Br{\phi}nsted's$ coefficients are derived for cross interactions between identical groups: ${\rho}_{ii}={\rho}^N+{\rho}^L$, ${\rho}^L-{\rho}^N=1$, ${\beta}_{ii}={\beta}_N+{\beta}_L$ and ${\beta}_N-{\beta}_L=1$. The use of these relations enable us to correctly interprete the transition state structure. Another advantage of the use of these relations is to use ${\rho}/{\rho}_e$ for the determination of corresponding ${\beta}$ values instead of plotting log k vs $pK_{lg}$, once ${\rho}_e$ values for standardizing equilibria are obtained.

탄소나노튜브 (CNT)가 도포된 평면형 에미터와 원형 개구의 게이트 전극을 가지는 삼전극 전계방출 소자의 전계방출 특성을 시뮬레이션하였다. 체계적인 시뮬레이션을 위해 소자 내 전위의 공간적 분포 특정을 결정하는 전계형상인자 $\gamma$를 정의하고 이 값에 따른 전위분포의 특성과 방출 전자의 궤적을 계산하였다. 계산 결과$\gamma$ > 1 인 전압조건에서는 에미터의 가운데를 중심으로 강한 전자방출이 발생하고 전자빔이 구조의 축 방향으로 자체 집속됨을 알 수 있었다. 이렇게 되면 에미터와 게이트의 정렬이 전혀 필요하지 않게 되며 또한 별도의 전자집속회로 없이도 에미터와 양극에 있는 형광체가 1:1 로 대응하는 획기적인 디스플레이 구조를 가능하게 해 준다 적정 전압조건에서 CNT의 전계강화인자 $\beta$의 변화에 따른 총 전류를 계산한 결과，$\beta$ >3000인 CNT를 사용할 경우 실제 소자로서 구현이 가능함을 확인하였다.

Second-order rate constants have been measured for two series of nucleophilic displacement reactions, i.e., reactions of 4-nitrophenyl benzoate with Z-substituted phenoxides and those of Y-substituted phenyl benzoates (1a-h) with 4-chlorophenoxide (4-ClPhO–) in 80 mol% $H_2O$/20 mol% DMSO at 25.0 ${\pm}\;0.1\;{^{\circ}C}$. The Br$\phi$nsted-type plot for reactions of 4-nitrophenyl benzoate with Z-substituted phenoxides exhibits an excellent linear correlation with ${\beta}_{nuc}$ = 0.72. Reactions of 1a-h with 4-chlorophenoxide result in also a linear Br$\phi$nsted-type plot with ${\beta}_{lg}$ = –0.62, a typical ${\beta}_{lg}$ value for a concerted mechanism. The Hammett plots correlated with ${\sigma}^o\;and\;{\sigma}^-$ constants show many scattered points for reactions of 1a-h with 4-chlorophenoxide. In contrast, the corresponding Yukawa-Tsuno plot exhibits an excellent linear correlation with $\rho_Y$ = 2.26 and r = 0.53, indicating that expulsion of the leaving group occurs at the rate-determining step (RDS) either in a concerted mechanism or in a stepwise pathway. However, a stepwise mechanism with leaving group departure being the RDS is excluded since the leaving Y-substituted phenoxide is less basic and a better nucleofuge than the incoming 4-ClPh$O^-$. Thus, the reactions have been concluded to proceed through a concerted mechanism, in which bond formation between the nucleophile and electrophilic center is more advanced than expulsion of the leaving group in the transition state on the basis of the magnitude of ${\beta}_{nuc}\;and\;{\beta}_{lg}$ values.

세포 노쇠화(cell senescence)는 나이 듦에 따른 내인성 노화 및 질병들에서 나타날 수 있는 세포의 노화인자 발현, 세포분열 정지 등의 현상으로 일컬어진다. 피부세포의 경우, 노화 및 외부요인으로 인한 세포 노쇠화가 일어나 세포분열의 정지 및 기능 이상이 관찰되며 이는 피부노화를 가속화시키는 요인이 된다. 본 연구에서는, cordycepin을 이용하여 노화된 피부세포의 세포 노쇠화 억제 및 기능 향상을 유도하여 피부노화 개선의 가능성을 제시하였다. 사람에서 유래한 섬유아세포를 이용하여 세포의 ${\beta}$-galactosidase 활성 세포염색 결과, 많은 계대의 세포에서 발현이 높게 나타남을 알 수 있었다. 항산화 및 항염 효과가 알려진 cordycepin을 많은 계대의 세포에 처리하였을 때 ${\beta}$-galactosidase 활성이 확연히 떨어짐을 확인하였고 무혈청 배지 조건에서 많은 계대 세포의 증식 및 생존율을 높이는 결과를 보였으며 세포 노쇠화와 많은 연관성이 대두되고 있는 미토콘드리아의 기능관련 실험을 진행한 결과, 높은 ROS억제능이 나타났다. 본 연구를 통하여 노화된 사람 피부 섬유아세포에서의 cordycepin의 세포 노화 개선능을 알 수 있었으며, 피부 항노화소재로서의 가능성을 확인하였다.
