Rice seeds of 4 cultivars including Whachung and Nampung, of the non-waxy rice cultivars, and Shinsunchalbyeo and Whachungchabyeo, of the waxy rice cultivars, were germinated at $27^{\circ}C$ for 3 days to compare the changes in some physico-chemical properties of the starch granules and the starch-hydrolysing enzyme activities during germination, respectively. With the starch granules, the amount of long glucose chains from amylose molecules were reduced in the non-waxy rices, while the chain length increased in the waxy rices. In the distribution profile of the glucose chain length from amylose molecules, we could observed that the chain length with DP (degree of polymerization) ranged 33 to 66 increased with the decreasing rate of the chain length with that above 130, regardless of the waxiness of rices. In addition, we observed that in contrast to a increase in chain length with DP ranged 14 to 33, the amount of short chains from A chain fraction decreased. Germination induced slight reduction in the polymerization rate of starch granules, and decrease in both initiation and termination temperatures for the gelatinization. ${\alpha}-Amylase$ activity of rices germinated for 3 days found to he higher than that of malt. Especially, the activity of Shinsunchalbyeo was revealed to be highest, about two fold higher than that of malt. In contrast, ${\beta}-amylase$ of the waxy rice found to be considerably less active than malt, although the waxy showed prevalent activity as compared to the non-waxy rices.

To verify which loop regions of 18S rRNA gene are suitable as species-specific genetic markers in ciliates, we analyzed the genetic variation of 18S rRNA gene among 9 Euplotes species (Hypotrichia : Ciliophora). In our result, no inter-specific variation was detected from V1, V3 and V5 regions, and the length of V7 and V8 are 44 bp and 79 bp, respectively, which are too short to make genetic marker. In contrast, V2 and V4 may be good candidate segments of species-specific diagnostic molecular markers because these two regions are most variable ($1.75{\sim}20.61%$) and showed good inter-specific phylogeny. Furthermore, the sequences of V2 and V4 are 123 bp and 306 bp, respectively in length which are enough to make species-specific marker.

The relationship betwwen the molecular structure of amylopectin and the texture of cooked rice was investigated using Korean rice [3 varieties of Japonica type and 3 varieties of Tongil type(Japonica-Indica breeding type)]. The molecular structure of rice amylopectin was polymodal and distributed A chain of $\overline{DP}$ 12.4, short B chain of $\overline{DP}$ 20.6, B chain of $\overline{DP}$ 26.3, long B chain of $\overline{DP}$ 45 and super long chain of above $\overline{DP}$ 55. The super long chain of amylopectin was composed of long linear chain with poorly branched chain. Also, the super long chain of amylopectin showed positive correlated with average chain length, inherent viscosity and ${\beta}-amyloysis$ limit$({\%})$, but negative correlated with ${\lambda}max$ of iodine reaction of amylopectin. The structural properties of amylopectin in Japonica type were different from those of amylopectin in Tongil type. In relationship between molecular structure of amylopectin and texture of cooked rice, the average chain length, inherent viscosity, ${\beta}-amyloysis$ limit and super long chain of amylopectin was showed a positive correlation with hardness, but a negative correlation with adhesiveness of cooked rice. The long chain of rice amylopectin is the less, the eating quality of cooled rice was the better. These results suggest that the molecular structure of rice amylopectin could be responsible for the texture of cooked rice.

Thermoresponsive polymers were successfully synthesized by a combination of atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) and Cu(I)-catalyzed 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of azide and alkynes (click chemistry). Poly(2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate) (PHEMA) was synthesized by ATRP, followed by introduction of alkyne groups using pentynoic acid, leading to HEMA-alkyne. Homopolymers having secondary amine groups, tertiary amines with hydroxyethyl and hydroxypropyl groups were synthesized by adding 2-azido-N-ethyl-ethanamine, 2-[(2-azidoethyl)amino]ethanol, and 2-[(2-azidoethyl)amino]propanol, respectively, to the PHEMA-alkyne backbone using click chemistry. Molecular weight (MW), molecular weight distribution (MWD), and click reaction efficiency were determined by gel permeation chromatography (GPC) and $^1H$ NMR spectroscopy. The transmission spectra of the 1.0 wt% aqueous solutions of the resulting polymers at 650 nm were measured as a function of temperature. Results showed that the lower critical solution temperature (LCST) could be easily controlled by the length of the hydroxyalkyl groups.

Relative retention times (RRTs) of RAH molecules in HPLC are trained and predicted intesting sets using a multiple linear regression (NLR) and an artificial neural network (ANN). The maindescriptors in QSRR are molecular connectivity ($^1X_v,\;^2X_v$), the length-to-breadth ratios (L/B), and molecular dipole moment(D). L/B which is related with slot model is a good descripter in ANN, but isn't in MLR. Varainces which show the accuracy of prediction times in testing sets are 0.0099, 0.0114 for ANN and MLR, respectively. It was shown that ANN can exceed the MLR in prediction accuracy.

Aqueous polyurethane(PU) anionomer dispersions were prepared from isophorone diisocyanate (IPDI), polytetramethylene adipate glycol(PTAd) and dimethylol propionic acid(DMPA) as potential anionic centers. The effects of polyol molecular weight(Mn) on the state of dispersion, thermal, mechanical, and viscoelastic properties and swelling of emulsion cast film were determined. With increasing Mn of PTAd, particle size of emulsion and soft segment T$_{g}$ decreased, and solvent swell, emulsion viscosity, and hard segment $T_{g}$ increased. Tensile strength showed minimum with PTAd 1000, and elongation at break generally increased with the Mn of PTAd. These results were possibly nterpreted in terms of soft segment-hard segment phase separation and crystallization of high molecular weight PTAd.

오리온 A 분자운은 별탄생이 활발하게 일어나는 영역이다. 때문에 분자운 연구를 통해서 별탄생을 연구하기에는 최적의 곳이다. 특기할 것은 Orion A에는 필라멘트 구조가 있다는 점이다. 필라멘트는 전형적으로는 길이 4.8pc, 너비 1.4 pc 로 제시되었다(Nagahama et al. 1998). 많은 미지의 조건들 가운데 필라멘트 구조는 별탄생에 대한 새로운 조명을 던져주는 데, 가령 분자운이 수축, 분열하며 작은 덩어리를 만드는 과정에 이런 기다란 구조가 별탄생에 어떤 과정에서 나타나며 이것이 별탄생이 어떤 효과를 발생하는지 연구되어야 하는 문제들이다. 대덕전파안테나의 1분의 분해능(Channel resolution 63 KHz/ Band Width 25 MHz) 의 12CO, 13CO(J=1-0) 분자선 관측으로 필라멘트를 이전 연구보다 자세하게 관측하여 이것 안에 있을 것으로 보이는 substructure들 연구하고자 한다. 관측영역은 적경: 5h 32m ~ 5h 37m, 적위: $-5^{\circ}$ 14' ~ $-5^{\circ}$ 37'으로 ($1^{\circ}{\times}1^{\circ}$) 영역을 관측하였다. 그 결과 필라멘트구조를 확인할 수 있었으며 약 0.7pc,약 $1000\;M_{\odot}$의 덩어리들이 이전관측에서 보여진 X자형태가 아니라 일자형태로 분포되어있는 것을 알 수 있었다. 관측된 최소덩어리는 star cluster mass이고 stellar size 의 덩어리는 별탄생 과정 이후 소멸된 것으로 보인다. 관측으로 확인된 덩어리들의 물리적인 성질과 분포를 깊이 연구해 보고자 한다. 향후 Orion A 전체를 추가로 관측하고자 한다.

Molecular simulation is an exceptionally useful method for predicting self-assembled structures in various macromolecular systems, enlightening the origins of many interesting molecular events such as protein folding, polymer micellization, and ordering of molten block copolymer. The length scales of those events ranges widely from sub-nanometer scale to micron-scale or to even larger, which is the main obstacle to simulate all the events in an ab initio principle. In order to detour this major obstacle in the molecular simulation approach, a molecular model can be rebuilt by sacrificing some unimportant molecular details, based on two different perspectives with respect to the resolution of model. These two perspectives are generally referred to as 'atomistic' and 'mesoscopit'. This paper reviews various simulation methods for macromolecular self-assembly in both atomistic and mesoscopic perspectives.

터리풀속(Filipendula)은 장미과(Rosaceae), 장미아과(Rosoideae)에 속하는 다년생 초본이며, 북반구 온대지역의 산지지역에 서식하며 15-20여 종이 보고되어 있고, 이 중 10여종이 한국, 중국, 일본, 타이완 등의 동아시아 지역에 분포한다. 본 연구의 목적은 DNA 염기서열 자료를 이용하여 터리풀속(Filipendula)내 종들간의 계통관계를 규명하기 위하여 본 연구를 수행하였다. 이를 위해서 11종 29개체의 터리풀속(Filipendula)샘플과 외군인 산딸기나무속(Rubus)에 속하는 3종 5개체의 샘플을 이용하였다. 추가로 Genbank에서 3속 10종 18개의 염기서열을 다운받아 비교분석에 이용하였다. 계통연구를 위하여 엽록체에 존재하는 atpF-atpH, psbK-psbI, psbA-trnH, matK, rbcL, 5개 마커와 핵에 존재하는 ITS, 총 6개 마커의 염기서열을 생산하였다. 총 52개의 샘플에 대하여 엽록체유전체 5개 마커지역은 염기서열 길이가 3,485bp였고 핵 ITS지역은 631bp였으며, 이들을 합한 염기서열 길이는 4,116bp였다. 계통분석결과, 터리풀속(Filipendula)은 단계통군을 이루었다. F. occidentalis와 F. vulgaris가 기저분류군을 이루었고 이들은 각각의 아속에 해당한다. 그리고 나머지 종들은 모두 하나의 단계통군을 이루었다. 위의 결과들은 1961년 시미즈가 본 속을 Hypogyna아속, Filipendula아속, Ulmaria아속으로 나눈 분류시스템과 일치한다. 나아가 분자계통수에서 Ulmaria아속은 크게 4개의 subclade로 구분되었다. 먼저 subclade I에는 F. vestita, F. kiraishiensis, F. tsuguwoi, F. multijiuga, F. purpurea 등 5개 종으로 구성되었다. Subclade II는 F. ulmaria 한 종으로만 구성되었다. Subclade III에는 F. glaberrima, F. koreana, F. formosa, F.camtschatica 로 구성되었으며 subclade III에는 한국에 서식하는 3종이 포함되었다. Subclade IV에는 F. rubra, F. angustiloba, F. palmata, F. intermedia 4종으로 구성되었다. 이번연구에서는 Ulmaria아속내에 4개의 subclade가 존재함이 처음으로 확인되었다.

The crystal structure of piperidinothiosemicarbazide, $C_6H_{13}N_3S$, has been determined by single crystal X-ray analysis. The space group is P21/c with four molecules in the unit cell of dimensions $a=14.68{\pm}0.04,\;b=4.59{\pm}0.02,\;c=12.92{\pm}0.04{\AA}\;and\;{\beta}=109.4{\pm}0.2^{\circ}$. Three-dimensional photographic intensities were estimated visually. The structure has been solved by an interpretation of a Patterson synthesis and refined by block-diagonal least-squares methods to give a final R value of 0.14 for 378 observed independent reflections. There are two independent hydrogen bonds in the structure. One of them is of the type N-H${\ldots}$S with the length 3.28 and $3.39{\AA}$, and another is of the type N-H${\ldots}$N with the length $3.03{\AA}$. Apart from the hydrogen bonding system the molecules are held together in the crystal by van der Waals forces.
