에토포시드와 아피제닌의 약동학적 상호작용 연구를 위하여 아피제닌 (0.4, 2.0 또는 8 mg/kg)과 에토포시드의 경구(6 mg/kg) 및 정맥 (2 mg/kg) 투여 하여 본 연구를 실시하였다. 아피제닌이 cytochrome P450 (CYP) 3A4 활성과 P-glycoprotein (P-gp)의 활성에 미치는 영향도 평가하였다. 아피제닌의 CYP3A4의 50% 효소활성억제는 $1.8{\mu}M$ 이었다. 아피제닌은 MCF-7/ADR 세포의 로다마인-123 세포 축적을 증가 시키므로 P-gp를 억제시켰다. 아피제닌은 에토포시드의 혈장곡선하면적과 최고혈장농도 (AUC and $C_{max}$)를 유의성 있게 증가시켰으나, 에토포시드의 최고혈장농도 도달시간 ($T_{max}$)과 생물학적 반감기 ($t_{1/2}$)에는 영향을 미치지 않았다. 따라서, 아피제닌 존재하에 에토포시드의 절대적생체이용률 (AB)은 대조군과 비교하여 유의성있게 증가되었다. 경구투여시와는 대조적으로, 아피제닌은 정맥 내로 투여된 에토포시드에서는 약동학적 파라미터에 어떤 영향도 미치지 않았다. 따라서 아피제닌이 에토포시드의 생체이용률을 증가시킨 것은 아피제닌이 소장과 간장에서 CYP3A4을 억제 및 소장에서 P-gp를 억제 시켰기 때문으로 사료된다.

The nucleocapsid (N) protein of porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) is a basic multifunctional protein which has been reported to be a serine phosphoprotein with yet-identified functions. As a first step towards understanding the general role of N protein phosphorylation during virus replication, the non-phosphorylated mutant N gene was constructed by mutating all serine residues to alanine. This recombinant N protein was identified to be unphosphorylated, confirming that serine residues truly function as core amino acids responsible for N protein phosphorylation. The PRRSV N protein has been shown to possess the biological features of nuclear localization and N-N homodimerization which individually play critical roles in virus infection. In the present study, therefore, it was attempted to investigate whether these two properties of the N protein are modulated by its phosphorylation status. However, experimental results showed that the non-phosphorylated N protein was still present in the nucleus and nucleolus, and was able to associate with itself by non-covalent interactions. Taken together, the data suggest phosphorylation-independent regulation of N protein nuclear transport or oligomerization, thereby implying the potential involvement of phosphorylation in regulating the activities of the N protein at other levels including RNA-binding capacity.

Enzymatic synthesis of fructose-based sugar fatty acid esters, such as methyl fructoside oleic acid mono and diester, was investigated using methyl fructoside as a sugar starting material. For the production of methyl fructoside fatty acid monoester by solvent process, 2-methyl 2-propanol was found to be a god reaction medium resulting a higher yield and productivity due to its high sugar solubility. The yield and productivity of methyl fructoside oleic acid monoester were 70% and 12.6g/L-hr, respectively, when molar ratio of methyl fructoside, initial concentration of methyl fructoside, enzyme(Novozym 435) content, and reaction temperature were 3:1, 200g/L, 1%(w/v), and $60^{\circ}C$, respectively. Methyl fructoside oleic acid diester was prepared by lipase-catalyzed diacylation of methyl fructoside and oleic acid in the solvent-free process. Maximum yield of 98% and productivity of 140g/L-hr were achieved when molar ratio(methyl fructoside and oleic acid) of 1:2 enzyme content of 10%(w/v) and reaction temperature of $70^{\circ}C$ were applied for the operating conditions under a reduced pressure of 20∼200 mmHg.

The stereochemistry of 1,3-thiazolidine sulfoxides 1 in which 3 chiral centres are present in a molecule was elucidated by deuterium exchange and trapping reactions. 3-Acetoxy-1,3-thiazolidines 5 was oxidized to 6 and 8, corresponding $\alpha$-cis 10, $\alpha$-trans 11, $\beta$ -cis 12, and $\beta$ -trans 13 isomers were separated from their diasteromeric mixtures. Sulfoxide 10 was isomerized to more thermodynamically stable isomer 13 under neutral conditions in refluxing benzene or toluene. The methyl hydrogens of 2-methyl group in the sulfoxide 13 and those of the sulfoxide 11 were deuterated by the deuterium incorporation reactions. The intermediate sulfenic acids 25 and 26 derived from the sulfoxides 10 and 12 via sigmatropic rearrangement were trapped by 2-mercaptobenzothiazole (2-MBT) to give disufides 27 and 28 respectively. However, the sulfoxides 11 and 13 were transformed to ring expansion product dihydro-1,4-thiazine 29 under the same reaction conditions. In the presence of acid catalyst, the sulfoxides 10, 11, and 12 were converted to dihydro-1,4-thiazine 29 through the sulfoxide 13 quantitatively. The mechanisms of isomerization of sulfoxides and the formation of 29 were also discussed.

Chia (Salvia hispanica L.) seed, originated from Central America, is a nutritious food especially rich in dietary fiber and protein. In this study, we investigated the quality and sensory characteristics of Yanggang with chia seed powder (CSP). Red bean paste was replaced with CSP at 0% (Control), 1% (CSP1), 2% (CSP2), 3% (CSP3) and 4% (CSP4). The pH values of chia seed Yanggang tended to decrease from Control (6.84) to CSP4 (6.67); whereas, the moisture contents of Yanggang samples tended to increase. The soluble solid contents of CSP4 were the highest ($3.33^{\circ}Bx$), as compared to the Control which showed the lowest values ($2.77^{\circ}Bx$). In the CSP-added groups, the L-value (lightness), a-value (redness) and b-value (yellowness) were increased, while the ${\Delta}E$ (total color difference) was decreased, as compared to the control group. Hardness and springiness were both increased from control ($49.77g/cm^2$ and 464.80%, respectively) to CSP4 ($72.21g/cm^2$ and 532.43%, respectively). However, cohesiveness decreased from control (47.41%) to CSP4 (37.34%). Chewiness and adhesiveness showed no significant group-wise difference (p<0.05). Total polyphenol content ranged from 7.23 to 10.73 mg GAE/100 g, with a lower ABTS $IC_{50}$ of the CSP-added groups than that of the control group. Samples from the CSP-added as well as Control groups showed no significant differences among all items on the sensory evaluation test, except flavor. The results indicated that CSP had significant effects on the soluble solid contents and texture of Yanggang. Thus, the addition of 2% of CSP is desirable for making Yanggang.

Methyl fructoside was continuously produced in suspended bed enzyme reactor using alginate-enclosed microspheres biocatalyst which was developed for enzymatic synthesis of methyl fructoside. And the continuous operating conditions were optimized with reactor simulation in order to demonstrate a feasibility of commercialization of the continuous enzymatic production process development. The yield and productivity of methyl fructoside were as high as 47.1%o and $2g/\ell$-hr, respectively. The optimum operating conditions were pH 4.8, 30%(v/v) of methanol content and $2U/m\ell$ of enzyme activity when the initial concentration of sucrose is $0.291mo1/\ell$ at the reaction temperature of $25^{\circ}C$.

An amphiphilic phase enzyme reaction was used to synthesize alkyl glucosides from glucose and alkyl alcohol with immobilized ${\beta}$-glucosidase using four glycol ether cosolvents(monoglyme, diglyme, 2-methoxyethanol, and 1,4-dioxane). Monoglyme was shown to be the best cosolvent for the amphiphilic phase medium composed of water/cosolvent/alkyl alcohol admixture. To obtain high yield of alkyl glucoside by amphiphilic phase enzyme reaction, hydrophilicity-hydrophobicity of amphiphilic media and enzyme microenvironment was optimized from the viewpoints of substrate solubility, enzyme activity, water activity, and dynamic equilibrium between glucose alcoholysis and glucoside hydrolysis. Under optimum reaction conditions, the highest concentrations of hexyl, octyl, decyl, and dodecyl glucosides were 18.2, 9.68, 7.27, and 6.03g/L, respectively.

Chia seed (Salvia hispanica L.) originated from Central America is a highly nutritious food containing large amounts of linolenic acid, dietary fiber, and protein. This study investigated the quality properties and antioxidant activities of Sulgidduk prepared with chia seed powder as a functional material. Freeze-dried chia seed powder was replaced with 0, 1, 3, 5, and 7% of rice flour. The addition of chia seed powder did not affect water content, whereas the pH value of the chia seed group decreased as compared to the control. For color measurements, a and b values increased as the amount of chia seed powder increased, whereas L value decreased. Hardness and chewiness of Sulgidduk with chia seed powder were lower than those of the control, whereas springiness of the chia seed group was higher than that of the control. Cohesiveness was not significantly different in all samples. According to retrogradation analysis based on changes in hardness during storage, it was confirmed that addition of chia seed powder inhibited aging of Sulgidduk. Retrogradation of CSP5 was the slowest. Consumer acceptability analysis did not show significant differences in all samples. Total polyphenol and flavonoid contents tended to significantly increase as chia seed content increased. DPPH and ABTS radical scavenging activities of Sulgidduk were also elevated due to addition of chia seeds. From the results, addition of chia seed softened texture, inhibited aging, and enhanced antioxidant activities of Sulgidduk. It is concluded that addition of 5% chia seed powder, which showed high effectiveness for aging, is the most suitable for commercialization.
