We present petrography, mineral chemistry of amphibole and plagioclase, and major and trace element chemistry for the Ogcheon metabasites occurring in the Poun and Mungyong areas to understand metamorphism, and to define chemical characteristics of parental rocks and their implication for tectonic environment. The Ogcheon metabasites often preserve relict igneous textures, although no primary phases are observed. They are mainly composed of amphibole (actinolite+hornblende)+plagioclase+epidote+chlorite+sphene+opaque oxides, indicating epidote amphibolite facies metamorphism. Coarse-grained amphiboles frequently have actinolitic composition in the core, and hornblende along the margin and cleavage, which can be interpreted either as miscibility gap or as result of polymetamorphism. Although presumed polymetamorphic events in the Ogcheon supergroup favor the latter possibility, further metamorphic studies are necessary to solve the problem. Amphibole and plagioclase chemistries suggest greenschist (epidote-amphibolite, if miscibility gap is present) to amphibolite facies metamorphism of possibly medium pressure. The major and trace element data of whole rocks indicate that the Ogcheon metabasites are transitional to tholeiitic basalts belonging to within-plate environment. Absence of evidences indicating deep sea environment suggests that the Ogcheon metabasites emplaced in an intra-cratonic, possibly rift environment which failed to proceed to an oceanic rift. Chemical variation of the metabasites toward a granitic pluton indicates K loss closer to the pluton, suggesting that caution should be taken when K is involved in a discussion.

The nucleotide sequences of the 5'-untraslated region(5'-UTR) of Hepatitis G virus(HGV) from sera of Korean patients were determines. When compared to the previously reported isolates, the Korean isolates have higher sequence homology with the Japanese isolates indicating the geographic distribution of HGV variants. Interestingly, three discrete regions which are highly conserved among HGV isolates from the same geographical area, thus could be applied to distinguish HGV isolates from the different areas were noticed in the 5'-UTR. Based on the sequences of these group-specific regions, twenty four different HGV isolates could be classified into 5 groups. By using the group-specific regions, inconsistency in HGV typing when based on the different regions of HGV could be solved.

This study was conducted to increase the yield of sesame on the undeveloped upland by pinching and application of minor nutrients which were magnesium. boron and zinc. The effect of phinching to yield at 20 days after germination was 17%. and pinching effect at 50 days after germination with minor nutrients was 46% compared to non-treatments. These effect were considered as increasing the number of capsule per plant. number of node per main stem. and 1,000 grains weight. Simultaneously, the nutrients (Mg. B and Zn) were recognized to promote remarkably the yield.

The sequence of ITS (partial 16S ribosomal DNA, complete ITS1, 5.8S ribosomal DNA and ITS2, and partial 28S ribosomal DNA) was analysed by PCR and autosequencing in Sarcodon aspratus. The ITS lenght of S. aspratus was 716 base pair. As this sequence compared with other reports on S. aspratus (ace No AF335110), the sequence variation based on nucleotide deletion and substitution was $1.8\%$. This nucleotide variation rate in same species was very higher than in other species. Also, the sequence varitation rates between this S. aspratus and S. imbricatus, and S. squamus were $8\%\;and\;10\%$, respectively. This results suggested that the high sequence variation of S. aspratus might be caused specific host and inhabitat environment which limited gene flow.

The sequences of two fragments of 18s ribosomal DNA were determined to elucidate relationship between Pungitius sinensis and P. kaibarae. The proportion of G+C pair is 54.85% to 55.15% in P. kaibarae populations and 52.76% in P. sinensis. Number of substitutions ranges from 10~18 among the populations of P. kaibarae and up to 165 between P. sinensis and P. kaibarae. The value of sequence divergence were 0.0118~0.0195 among the populations of P. kaibarae and 0.2136~0.2306 between P. sinensis and P. kaibarae. The result of pairwise comparison of the sequences indicate that phylogenetic relationship between P. sinensis and P. kaibarae was differentiated to specific level.

The gene encoding the 33 kDa piroplasm surface protein of Theileria sergenti isolated in Korea was cloned and the nucleotide sequence was determined by dideoxy chaill termination method. The cloned gene corresponds to 869 bps encoding an open reading frame of 283 amino acids. Comparison of the sequence between Korean and .Tapanese isolates showed 99.4% homology rate in the nucleotide sequence and 98.9% homology rate in the amino acid sequence.

초 고성능 바이오 서열 분석 장비 기술의 발달로 대량의 바이오 정보가 쏟아져 나오고 있으며, 바이오산업의 발달로 개인별 유전체 정보에 의한 맞춤의학의 시대가 도래되고 있다. 수많은 서열에 대한 분석에는 많은 저장장치 및 주기억장치가 필요하므로 슈퍼컴퓨터 급의 서버와 대량의 데이터를 빠르게 처리할 수 있는 프로그램이 필요하다. 이러한 분석에는 염기서열 일치 검색과 이를 기반으로 하는 Alignment와 Assembly 분석이 있으며, 이를 수행하는 기존의 알고리즘 및 대부분의 프로그램들은 염기서열을 문자열로 취급하고, 해쉬 인덱스 테이블, Brujin 그래프의 사용, 버러우즈 휠러 변환(BWT) 등의 기법을 활용하여 효율적인 분석을 도모하였다. 본 논문에서는 염기서열을 문자열이 아닌 k-mer 묶음의 정수형 하나로 변환하여 검색함으로써 저장 공간의 크기를 약 28% 이상으로 줄이고 형 변환 상태에서의 검색을 수행할 수 있는 알고리즘을 제안한다. Assembly 분석 프로그램인 CalcGen 프로그램을 개발하여 본 알고리즘의 효용성 및 효율성을 실험을 통해 검증하였다. 이 연구의 결과는 향후 대량의 유전체 염기서열의 효율적 분석과 저장 및 처리에 또 하나의 새로운 접근 방법을 제안하는데에 그 의미를 둘 수 있다.

Oxidized-polyacrylonitrile (oxy-PAN) was prepared by oxidation of PAN fiber at $240^{\circ}C$, followed by base catalyzed hydrolysis reaction. The chemical structure of PAN fiber in various pH conditions was characterized by $^{13}C-NMR$ spectroscopy. The characteristic contraction and expansion behavior of oxy -PAN fiber was observed in acidic and basic medium, respectively. In basic condition, water molecules might be absorbed into the fiber with the movement of charge balancing $Na^+$ ion, on the other hand, the water molecules seemed to be expelled in acidic condition to result in contraction. It was also observed that the facile chemical modification occurred due to free diffusion of aqueous reagent into the hydrophilic PAN fiber, and the morphology was affected by pH condition.

Phospholipase D catalyzes the phosphatidohydrolysis and transphosphatidylation of phospholipid in the biological systems. In this study we were partially purified phospholipase D from Chinese cabbage and the characterization of the enzyme was carried out in a multistirring batch system bioreactor. The enzyme showed optimum activity at pH ,5.6, highest activity at 37$^{\circ}C$ and Ca2+ is important for the enzyme activity. Optimum concentrations of Ca2+ for phosphatidohydrolysis was 20 mM and for transphosphatidylation was 40 mM, respectively. Some organic solvents such as diethylether, isopropylether and butylacetate were activated the enzyme activity. On the other hand, EDTA, Ba2+, Mn2+ and Zn2+ showed inhibitory effect on the enzyme activity. The base acceptors in transphosphatidylation by the Chinese cabbage phospholipase D were tested. Various poly-and monohydroxy alcohols were found to be active.
