국내 7개 대학이 참여한 생명공학 연구팀이 최근 광우병을 유발하는 것으로 알려진 '프리온(Prion) 단백질'을 생체내에서 축적되지 않으면서 정상기능을 하도록 변형된 '프리온 변이단백질'을 과다 발현시킨 수정란을 대리모에 착상시키는 방법으로 '광우병 내성 복제소' 4마리를 생산했다. 국제특허를 출원한 것은 물론이고, 지난해 12월 10일 노무현 대통령, 박호군 과학기술부 장관, 정운찬 서울대 총장 등 150여 명이 참석한 가운데 전체 과정을 시연해 보였다. 세계 5번째로 체세포 복제소를 탄생시켜 우리 나라 생명공학기술 수준을 세계에 알렸던 황우석 서울대 수의과 교수가 이번에 또 팀을 이끌며 일을 저질렀다.

Compositions of protein and amino acid in the muscle of crucian carp, Carassius carassius, and snakehead, Channa argus, were determined by amino acid autoanalyzer, and the protein subunits composed of sarcoplasmic and myofibrillar proteins were also analyzed by sodium dodecylsulfate (SDS) polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The crucian carp muscle contained about $14.7\%$ of protein, and the protein was composed of $32.6\%$ in sarcoplasmic, $62.0\%$ in myofibrillar, $4.9%$ in alkali soluble and $0.6\%$ in stroma protein. The snakehead muscle, on the other hand, contained about $16.1\%$ of protein, and $30.7\%,\;64.1\%,\;4.7\%\;and\;0.4\%$ in the above order. The sarcoplasmic and myofibrillar proteins were composed of 10 and 19 subunits respectively, in the crucian carp, and 12 and 18 subunits in the snakehead. The total amino acid compositions in the muscle of the crucian carp and snakehead were found to be very similar except lysine and glutamic acid. The major amino acids of their muscle protein were lysine, glutamic acid, arginine and aspartic acid in order. In free amino acid content of the crucian carp, histidine occupied $52\%$ of the total free amino acid, and glutamic acid, glycine and taurine did $85\%$ in case of snakehead.

To determine optimal conditions for preparing protein isolate film from fish meal, the water vapor permeability (WVP), tensile properties and solubility of fish meal proteinisolate (FMPI) film were measured. FMPI was extracted from fish meal under conditions of various extraction times at $60^{\circ}C$. Extracting time little affected to WVP of FMPI film. The film added with glycerol as plasticizer showed higher WVP than sorbitol added. As extraction time increased up to 1 hr, tensile strength and elongation were increased. While in more extracting time than 1 hr, increasing extracting time made tensile strength and elongation showed negative correlations. The correlation of soluble protein amount and tensile strength showed higher value ($r^{2}=0.83$) than that of elongation ($r^{2}=0.62$).

Predication of protein interaction sites for monomer structures can reduce the search space for protein docking and has been regarded as very significant for predicting unknown functions of proteins from their interacting proteins whose functions are known. In the other hand, the prediction of interaction sites has been limited in crystallizing weakly interacting complexes which are transient and do not form the complexes stable enough for obtaining experimental structures by crystallization or even NMR for the most important protein-protein interactions. This work reports the calculation of 3D surface patches of complex structures and their properties and a machine learning approach to build a predictive model for the 3D surface patches in interaction and non-interaction sites using support vector machine. To overcome classification problems for class imbalanced data, we employed an under-sampling technique. 9 properties of the patches were calculated from amino acid compositions and secondary structure elements. With 10 fold cross validation, the predictive model built from SVM achieved an accuracy of 92.7% for classification of 3D patches in interaction and non-interaction sites from 147 complexes.

Casein or soybean protein was subjected to the reaction with caffeic acid-tyrosinase system at $30{\sim}35^{\circ}C$ pH 6.8 with aeration for 5 hr. The effects of the modified proteins on male Wistar rats were studied by pair-feeding of a cholesterol-free diet for 2 weeks. Significant decrease in protein digestibility for the rats fed with the modified proteins was observed. The feeding of modified protein from casein caused an enlargement of caecum. The concentration of serum cholesterol and triglyceride in the rats fed with modified proteins were mostly unchanged against the rats fed with untreated proteins. These results suggest that the decrease in protein digestibility induced by enzymic browning-reaction did not cause the decrease in concentration of serum cholesterol.

This study was conducted to investigate the effects of mud flat bacteria origin pretense supplementation on e99 qualify, nutrient digestibility and total protein concentration of serum in laying hens. A total of two hundred fifty two laying hens were randomly allocated into three treatments with seven replications for eight weeks. Dietary treatments included 1) CON (basal diet), 2) PRO1 (basal diet + 0.05% pretense) and 3) PRO2 (basal diet + 0.1% pretense). During the entire experimental peripd, hen-day egg production was not affected by treatments (P>0.05). Difference of yolk height was increased in PRO1 treatment compared with CON treatment (P<0.05). Difference of egg weight was increased in PRO2 treatment compared with CON and PRO1 treatments (P<0.05). Shell quality, yolk color unit, haugh unit and egg yolk index were not affected by treatments (P>0.05). DM digestibility was improved in CON and PRO2 treatments compared with PRO1 treatment (P<0.05). N digestibility was improved in PRO2 treatment compared with CON treatment (P<0.05). Total protein concentration in serum were not affected by treatments (P>0.05). In conclusion, mud flat bacteria origin pretense was effective for improving egg weight, yolk height and nutrient digestibility in laying hens.

This study was conducted to investigate the effects of coastal mud-flat bacteria origin protease supplementation on laying performance, nutrient digestibility and total protein concentration of serum in laying hens. A total of 252 laying hens were randomly allocated into three treatments with seven replications for eight weeks. Dietary treatments included 1) CON (basal diet), 2) PRO1 (basal diet + 0.05% protease) and 3) PRO2 (basal diet + 0.1% protease). During the entire experimental period, hen-day egg production was not affected by treatments (P>0.05). Difference of yolk height was increased in PRO1 treatment compared with CON treatment (P<0.05). Difference of egg weight was increased in PRO2 treatment compared with CON and PRO1 treatments (P<0.05). Shell quality, yolk color unit, haugh unit and egg yolk index were not affected by treatments (P>0.05). DM digestibility was improved in CON and PRO2 treatments compared with PRO1 treatment (P<0.05). N digestibility was improved in PRO2 treatment compared with CON treatment (P<0.05). Total protein concentration in serum were not affected by treatments (P>0.05). In conclusion, mud flat bacteria origin protease was effective for improving egg weight, yolk height and nutrient digestibility in laying hens.

The nutritional value of Korean traditional diet was estimated by using the 7-dish meal of Kim Ho Jik (1944) and the standard weekly menu of Bang Sin Young (1957), and compared to the current Recommended Daily Allowance of Korean. The Korean traditional diets were estimated to be able to supply 2,000-2,500 Kcal and 80-90g of protein per day. The constitution of energy was made by 73-77% carbohydrate, 15-18% protein and 10-12% lipid. The content of animal protein was 20-30% of total protein. The Korean traditional diet could supply sufficient amounts of protein, minerals and vitamins for an adult male, if the energy intake exceeds 2,00 Kcal per day.

The aim of this investigation was to determine the influence of different protein and threonine (Thr) levels on the liver threonine dehydroaenase (TDG) activity b\ulcorner rats. In rats fed on CP (crude Protein) - diets, TDG activity was increased during an CP rise to 12.0% CP, decreased slightly down to 18.0% CP and showed .a trend to increase from 18.0 to 24.0% CP. In rats the feeding with graded Protein supply gavee no indication for additional stimulation of threonine-oxidation by TDG over a wide range of CP-content in the diets. The increase in threonine content from 0.28 to 0.72% in the presence of 12.0% CP caused a gradual increase in TDG activity in rat liver. This similarly applied to the feed admixed with 18.0% CP, but at a higher level.
