The objective of this study was to investigate the application of lipoxygenase(LOX)-deficient soybean to food processing by evaluation of processing and sensory characteristics. LOX activity of some processed products of soybean was decreased as the order of whole soy flour, defatted flour, isolated protein. Particularly the decrement of LOX activity of Hwangkeumkong having all L-1, L-2 and L-3 was so high in defatting and isolation of protein. LOX activities of cotyledon of Jinpumkong sprouts were so high. When soy milks were prepared with LOX-deficient soybeans, its beany flavor was evaluated to be weaker than that of Hwangkeumkong. And soybean sprout of Jinpumkong 2 showed less beany flavor but hypocotyl elongation was poor. The beany flavor of ice cream prepared with defatted flour of Jinpumkong 2 didn't make a significant difference from that of ice cream made with defatted milk powder. We suggest that LOX-deficient soybean may have on relatively good oganoleptic properties of processed foods, so it takes advantage of food processing.

Two piston cores, obtained from the southwestern Ulleung Basin in East Sea, were analyzed to study the geochemical characteristics of the late Quaternary sediments and to detect any changes in sedimentary environment. The results show that the capacity of Total Organic Carbon is remarkably higher (average 1.8%) than that known from general open-sea. According to tephrochronology from known eruption ages, the sedimentation rates are high, ranging from 12.1 to 14.9 cm/kyr. The ratios of nitrogen and TOC (average 6.18-7.42) imply that the organic matter in the study area would be of oceanic origin. The correlation between sedimentation rates and sulfur contents suggests that the study area may be on the whole anoxic and somewhat high in primary productivity. During the Termination 1, inflows of organic matters were high. The sedimentary environments are characterized by rapid rates of sedimentation, and high anoxic values were compatible with accumulation of organic matters.

The ars gene of the Neurospora crassa encodes arylsulfatase and is expressed under sulfur limitation. An ars-1 promoter(Pars) translationally-fused to a lacZ gene was transformed into the N. crassa RLM 35-35, a his-3 inl strain and integrated into the his-S locus by a single crossover homologous recombination. $\beta$-galactosidase specific activity was measured from mycelia grown in sulfur-limited Vogel's medium. Enzyme activity reached its maximum at 14 hour after the shift to derepressing condition. When activity from homokaryon generated by microconidiation was measured, it was 17% a higher than that from heterokaryon.

Adrenomedullin (AM) is a peptide expressed in all body tissues, and its related receptors are increased in liver fibrosis. In this study, we evaluated the effect of AM deficiency on liver fibrogenesis induced by $CCl_4$ using AM heterozygous (HT) mice. The animals received a single injection of $CCl_4$ or olive oil for the acute experiment, and received $CCl_4$ or olive oil three times a week for 6 weeks for the chronic experiment. Fibrosis was accessed using histopathological analysis and the western blot. The AM HT mice showed mild pericentrilobular degeneration when compared to the AM wild type (WT) mice. In the acute experiment, there was no significant difference between the AM WT and AM HT mice. However, in the chronic experiment, the $CCl_4$-treated AM HT mice showed more severe liver fibrosis than that of the CCl₄-treated AM WT mice. The AST and ALT levels of the AM HT $CCl_4$ group were higher than those of the AM WT CCl₄ group. Additionally, the collagen deposition, $\alpha$- SMA protein and TGF-$\beta$ protein were increased in the AM HT $CCl_4$ group when compared to the AM WT $CCl_4$ group. The AM HT mice also exhibited severe lipid peroxidation through the GSH decrement. Taken together, our data suggest that AM deficiency increases the susceptibility to liver fibrosis induced by $CCl_4$, indicating a novel therapeutic target for patients with liver fibrosis.

악취물질 중 특히 황계열 물질인 Dimethyl sulfide(DMS)을 가시광선 조사아래 실내환경조건에서 광촉매 제거효율을 평가하였다. 농도에 의한 영향에서 1000, 20000$\mu$g/m$^3$에서 램프를 켜자마자 활성이 저하되는 것을 발견하였다. 이는 촉매 산화반응에 의한 부산물의 흡착 때문이다. 습도에 의한 영향평가에서 습도가 낮을 수로 제거율도 떨어졌다. 이는 유기물 산화를 일으키는 라디칼이 물분자에 의해 생성되기 때문에 낮은 습도에서 OH 의 공급원인 물분자의 결핍이 생겨 Dimethyl sulfide(DMS)제거효율을 떨어뜨렸다.

In order to evaluate suitability by processing for non-GM soybean cultivars such as Gaechuck#2, Jinyangkong and CJ#1 lacking lipoxygenase (LOX) and kunitz trypsin inhibitor (KTI) protein, physicochemical characteristics and antioxidant activity of Kanjang made from above soybean were compared to Kanjang made from a conventional cultivar (Taekwangkong). Proximate compositions of soybeans were similar for the 4 kinds cultivars. Total phenol and flavonoid contents were significantly higher in cultivars lacking LOX and KTI protein than the Taekwangkong. In Kanjang, contents of total and reducing sugar were higher in Taekwangkong Kanjang than Kanjang from made cultivars lacking LOX and KTI protein. Contents of total and amino type nitrogen were the highest in the Jinyangkong Kanjang. Mineral contents were higher in the Jinyangkong and CJ#1 Kanjangs, amino acid contents were higher in the Kanjang made from 3 cultivars lacking LOX and KTI protein than the Taekwangkong. Taste of the Jinyangkong Kanjang with higher sweety and savory was also found to be superior to that of others in overall acceptability evaluation. Total phenol and flavonoid contents in Kanjang were significantly higher in the Kanjang made from cultivars lacking LOX and KTI protein than the Taekwangkong. Radical scavenging activity of Kanjang was increased in the total phenol contents dependent on. Reducing power by ferric-reducing antioxidant potential (FRAP) was significantly higher the Kanjang made from Gaechuck#2 and CJ#1 than the Taekwangkong. $Fe^{2+}$ chelating activity was higher in Taekwangkong Kanjang than the other cultivars, but its activity was similar to Jinyangkong Kanjang. Therefore, higher nutritional composition, total phenol and flavonoids contents and antioxidant activity in the Kanjang made from soybean cultivars lacking LOX and KTI protein might be provide better benefit for manufacture of another their products.

Citrin deficiency is an autosomal recessive disorder caused by mutations in the SLC25A13 gene on chromosome 7q21.3, and a type of urea cycle disorder that causes hyperammonemia. Although neonatal intrahepatic cholestasis and adult-onset type II citrullinemia, a type of citrin deficiency, have been described well in many articles for several decades, failure to thrive and dyslipidemia caused by citrin deficiency (FTTDCD), the other type of citrin deficiency, has been only identified recently. There was previously no case report about FTTDCD in Korea. Patients with FTTDCD could present with loss of appetite, fatigue, failure to thrive, hypoglycemia, hypercitrullinemia, dyslipidemia, and an increased lactate/pyruvate ratio. Routine evaluation may not reveal the cause of hypoglycemia caused by citrin deficiency. We recently had a case that presented with recurrent hypoglycemia in a 30-month-old boy. Chemistry profiling, urine organic acid analysis, plasma acylcarnitine analysis, and hormone studies indicated values within the normal range or non-specific findings. Mutation analysis to identify the cause of hypoglycemia identified the subject as a compound heterozygote carrying each of the c.852_855del ($p.Met285Profs^*2$), and c.1177+1G>A mutant alleles. We report here on this unusual case of citrin deficiency presenting with FTTDCD for the first time in Korea.

Since a 13% dietary protein level is generally accepted as a standard in evaluating net protein utilization values of protein sources in chicks, limiting amino acids a 13% protein basal diet containing 15% isolated soy-protein as the only source of dietary protein, were identified. Of such amino acids as methionine, lysine, threonine and tryptophan added to the basal diet singly or as a combination, methionine appeared as the only limiting amino acid for optimum growth of the chicks. When the requirement of total sulfur-containing acids (TSAA) was estimated as the point at which the dose-response curve intersected a line representing the plateau for maximum performance, the TSAA requirements for maximum growth and feed intake were 4.73% and 3.73% of dietary protein, respectively. The values, expressed in terms of TSAA intake, required for maximum weight gain, feed intake and gain/feed ratio were 167.1, 136.8 and 159.1 mg/bird/day, respectively.

The chemical composition of the arsenopyrite Ib adjoining“triple mutual contact”arsenopyrite + pyrite + hexagonal pyrrhotite may serve as a useful geothermometer in Stage II. In this study it corresponds to temperature T=33$0^{\circ}C$ and f( $S_2$)=10$^{-9.5}$ atm. And the pyrite-hexagonal pyrrhotite buffer curve indicates the probable range of the two variables; T= 315∼345$^{\circ}C$, and f( $S_2$)=10$^{-1}$0.5/∼10$^{-9}$ atm. The present antimony-bearing arsenopyrite (arsenopyrite Ic) is characterized by relatively high content of antimony, ranging from 4.95 to 8.91 percent Sb by weight and excess of iron and deficiency of anions are evident. Such a high antimonian arsenopyrite has never been known within single grain. But being the high content of antimony as in the arsenopyrite Ic, it does not serve as a geothermometer. The results of microprobe analyses for four pairs of asenopyrite and sphalerite in Stage III indicate the temperature range from 310 to 34$0^{\circ}C$, and sulphur fugacity range from 10$^{-10}$ ∼10$^{-9}$ atm. These values seem to correspond with those inferred from the Fe-As-S system.m..

전통적으로 소프트웨어 프로젝트는 납기지연, 예산초과, 높은 결함율 등으로 타 산업분야의 프로젝트에 비해 매우 높은 실패율을 기록하고 있는 것으로 알려져 있다. 이 같은 소프트웨어 프로젝트의 실패원인에 대한 많은 연구결과는 소프트웨어가 갖고 있는 범위와 요구사항 정의의 어려움, 비가시성으로 인한 초기견적의 부정확성, 역시 가시성의 부족으로 진행상황파악의 어려움에 따른 진척관리의 애로, 더욱 큰 문제는 변경의 용이성과 변경에 대한 추적의 어려움 등을 지적하고 있다. 실패한 프로젝트들의 내용을 보면 대부분 계획의 부정확성이나 위험에 대한 대처의 부족 또는 진행 중 발생하는 변경에 대한 통제의 실패에서 찾아 볼 수 있다. 정확한 예측과 위험 예방 그리고 효과적인 통제대책이 소프트웨어 프로젝트를 성공으로 이끄는 3두 마차라는 지적이다. 정확한 예측의 핵은 프로젝트 산출물인 제품에 대한 정확한 규모측정에 있고, 위험 예방은 복잡도가 높거나 불확실성이 높은 컴포넌트의 자원소요에 대한 예측과 이에 대한 준비의 소홀에서 찾을 수 있으며, 효과적인 통제대책은 프로젝트 관리 프레임워크가 튼튼하지 못하거나 이의 준수를 위한 노력의 결핍에서 찾을 수 있을 것이다. 본 논문에서는 이 3두 마차 중 가장 근간이 되고 시발점이 되는 제품의 규모에 대한 예측에 초점을 맞추어 규모측정에 가장 합리적이고 객관적이며 실용성이 높다고 현재 국제적으로 높은 평가를 받고 있는 기능점수를 프로젝트 관리에 어떻게 활용해야 프로젝트를 성공시킬 수 있을 지의 방법에 대한 검토 결과를 제시고자 한다.
