이번 연구는 아플라톡신 $B_1(AFB_2)$의 독성이 오리의 생산성, 체내 기관, 간 효소 활성도, 외관상 소화율, 영양소 소화율에 미치는 영향을 알아보기 위한 것이다. 1일령의 육용오리 90마리를 3개의 처리군으로 나눠 10마리씩 펜에서 사육하였다. 그룹1은 일반 사료를 급여하였고, 그룹 2와 3은 각각 아플라톡신 $20{\mu}g/kg$, $40{\mu}g/kg$이 포함된 오염된 쌀을 섞어 6주 동안 급여하였다. 그 결과 아플라톡신에 오염된 사료를 섭취한 그룹의 증체량과 사료 섭취량이 감소하였고, 사료요구률(feed to gain ratio), 간, 신장, 췌장의 무게가 높은 것으로 나타났다. 알라닌 아미노전이효소(ALT, serum alanine aminotransferase)와 혈중 아스파라진산 아미노전이효소(AST, aspartate aminotransferase)의 활성도도 아플라톡신 오염 그룹에서 유의성을 보이며 높았다. 아플라톡신 오염 그룹의 오리들의 십이지장에서 채취한 단백질 분해효소, 키모트립신, 트립신(이자액에서 분비되는 단백질 분해효소), 전분 가수 분해효소 등 소화효소의 활성도가 증가한 반면, 조단백질의 외관상 소화율은 유의성있게 낮은 것으로 나타났다. 이는 아플라톡신에 오염된 사료로가 오리의 생산성과 영양소의 외관상 소화율을 감소시키고 십이지장 내용물의 소화효소활성을 변화시킨다고 볼 수 있다.

The effects of diet on the composition of fecal microflora in mouse and the aclivilies of several enzymes in the leces were investigated. Vegetarian dietary groups were found to contain about ten lines higher numbers of Locmbocillus and B$&bacterizml than animal dietary groups. An~rnal dietmy groups were found to contain about 5 tolo times higher numbers of anaerobic Closhidia and Bocieriocles than the vegeterian detary groups. Fccal microbial $\beta$-glucosidase, $\beta$-glucm'onidase, ii-yptophanase and orease activilies in ihe animal dietary groups were shown lo be 30 to 50% hgher than those in h e vegetarian detary groups.

Essential amino acids involving in the active site ofthe cytidn~e deruninase from Bncillus subtilis ED 213 were determined by chemical modification studies. Tllc purified cytidine deruninase tiom Booillus subtilis ED 213 required the reduced form of Fe(lI)ion. since the enzyme was inhibited 43% by 1 mnM o-phenanthroline. Whereas the enzyme activity was activated up to 28% by 1 1 ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid. The cytidine deaninase activily was completely inhibited by 1 mM N-bromosuccinimide, chloramine-T, and p-chloromercuribenzoic acid (p-CMB), respectively. The enzyme activity was inhibited 36% by 1 mM pyridoxal-S-phosphale, and 31% by 1 mM l-ethy~-3-(3-dirneIhj~laminoprop}~~)c~bodiiamide and glycine inethyl ester. The enzyme activity was strongly inhibited 68% by 1 \mu$M \rho$-CMB and this inhibition of the enzyme activity with 1 \mu$M \rho$-CMB was completely reactivated by 5 mM cysleine as a reducing agent. We speculaled that tyrosine, methionine, cysteuie and/or serine residues are located ui or near ihe active site of the cytidine deruniuase from Bncilus subrilis ED 213 and indirectly related to lysine and/or glycine.

We observed that exogenously applied ethanol changed the activities of aldehyde oxidases (AO) in the primary roots of maize (Zea mays). The stimulatory effect of ethanol on the aldehyde oxidase activities was concentration dependent; the AO activities were slightly weaker with 0.2 - 0.4% ethanol and stronger with 0.8 - 1.0% ethanol than the level of control. The promotion of AO activities was not explained by the increased transcription of two AO genes in maize. In contrast, ethanol strongly increased the amount of AO proteins, indicating that ethanol enhanced AO activities by promoting the translation. Among three alcohols including ethanol, methanol and isopropanol, only ethanol promoted AO activities. These results suggested that enhancement of AO activities was specific to ethanol, whose level could be naturally increased when the plant roots drove fermentation to overcome low oxygen stresses.

Cellulases were isolated from both healthyl(PC) and virus0infected penicillum chrysogenum(PCV) in the wheat bean culture, and some properties of the enzymes were studied. 1) At $37^{\circ}C$, pH 6, 4 and 6day's culture the maximal enzyme yield was obtained in both PC and PCV. 2) The optimum temperature for the PC cellulase was at $50^{\circ}C$, and that for the PCV enzyme was the same. 3) The optimum pH for the PC enzyme was at 5.0, whereas the PCV enzyme was at 6.0, indicating that they are isozymes. 4) When Na-CMC was used as a substrate, PC enzyme was twice as high as the activity of PCV enzyme.

본 연구는 인삼 사포닌(Ponax ginseng C.A. Meyer)이 수영운동을 부하시킨 웅성 횐쥐(Sprague-Dawley 계, 360 $\pm$ 40 9)의 대퇴근 크레아틴 키나제(Creative Kinase, CK: E.C. 2.7.3.2) 동위효소 활성에 미치는 영향을 연구하였다. 운동군은 3시간 동안 수영운동시켰으며 ,인삼군은 인삼 사포닌을 체중 Kg 당 120 mg 복강투여하였다. 인삼 사포닌을 투여한 운동군은 수영운동 1시간 전에 인삼 사포닌을 투여한 후 3시간 동안 수영시켰다. 인삼군의 MB-CK의 활성은 대조군보다 유의하게 증가하였다(P<0.01). 또한 인삼 비투여 운동군과 인삼 투여 운동군에서의 MM-CK활성은 대조군보다 각각 현저하게 증가하였고(P < 0.01와 P < 0.05), 특히 인삼 투여 운동군에서 BB-CK활성이 대조군보다 유의하게 증가하였다(P < 0.01). 인삼 사포닌은 일반적으로 CK-동위효소의 활성을 증가시키고, 운동은 MM-CK의 활성을 현저하게 증가시켰으며, 인삼 투여 운동군에서 BB-CK의 활성이 인삼 비투여 운동군보다 현저하게 증가하였다. 따라서 인삼 사포닌과 운동이 CK동위효소 활성에 상승의 효과를 나타내는 것으로 생각된다.

Using the bacteria isolated from Chungkookjang, Bacillus sublilis MG410 which is excellent in fibrinolytic enzyme activity was isolated. In increase the high production of fibrinolytic enzyme from Bacillus sublilis MG410, the effect of various carbon sources, nitrogen sources, inorganic sources, the initial pH of medium were investigated. The most effective carbon and nitrogen sources were founded cellobiose 0.5%(w/v) and soybean meal 2%(w/v) respectively. None of inorganic sources examined had any detectable stimulating effect on fibrinolytic enzyme production except Na₂HPO₄·12H₂O. The initial optimum pH for fibrinolytic enzyme production ranged from 5∼6 and agitation speed was effect at 150rpm. In jar fermentor experiments under optimal culture conditions, the activity of fibrinolytic enzyme reached about 5.050 unit after 48hours.

To clarify the correlation of the proteinase activity with pathogenicity of Clonorrhis sinensis, the proteinase activity either in excretory-secretory products (ESP) or in crude extracts of adult C. sinensis was examined. Substrate gel electrophoresis of the ESP and crude extracts revealed four distinct enzyme bands, which were differently inhibited by the specific proteinase inhibitors. The proteinase of the ESP with molecular mass of 24 kDa, was purified 23-fold with 14.5% yield by spectra gel ACA 44 gel filtration. It exhibited optimal pH at 7.5 in sodium phosphate (0.1 M). Its activity was inhibited specifically by N-ethylmaleimide (NEMI and antipain whereas potentiated 1.9 folds in the presence of 5 mM dithiothreitol (DTT). Cytotoxicity of the proteinase increased in a dose- dependent manner up to 120 ㎍/ml while reduced by NEM and antipain, indicating that cysteine proteinase was responsible for the cytotoxicity. This result shows that the 24 kDa cysteine proteinase is deeply correlated with the pathogenicity of C. sinensis infection.

Polyphenol oxidase (PPO) from Burdock (Arctium lappa L.) was purified and characterized. Purification of polyphenol oxidase was achieved by ammonium sulfate precipitation, Phenyl-sepharose CL-4B hydrophobic chromatography and Sephadex G-100 gel filtration chromatography. The molecular mass of the purified PPO was estimated to be 30 kDa by SDS polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. In a substrate specificity, maximum activity was achieved with chlorogenic acid, followed by catechol and catechin. Whereas, there was low activity with hydroquinic acid, resorcinol or tyrosine. The optimum pH and temperature for enzyme activity were 7.0 and 35$\circC$ with catechol, respectively. The enzyme was most stable at pH 7.0 while unstable at acidic and alkaline pH. The enzyme was stable when heated to 40$\circC$. But heating at 50$\circC$ for more than 30 min caused 50% loss of activity. Ascorbic acid, L-cystein and $Cu^{2+}$ inhibited the activity of pholyphenol oxidase.

Protease activities were measured in vegetables used as cooking material or a side dish. Proteases of green pepper (Kwari and Chungyang), perilla leaves, soybean sprout and mungbean sprout were showed high activities. Especially, protease in soybean sprout was the highest activity among them. After dialysis, remaining activities in mungbean sprout, green pepper (Kwari and Chungyang) and perilla leaves were 12, 23, 45% and 37%. In the results of thawing after freezing the proteases, remaining activities in sprout of mungbean and soybean were 100% and 65%. Protease in soybean sprout was showed higher activity and stability than others. Proteolytic effects of soybean sprout on myofibrillar and sarcoplasmic protein were showed higher than stroma protein. In SDS-PAGE, myosin heavy chain, actin and tropomyosin were hydrolyzed with increasing time. Protease activity was rapidly increased with increasing meat concentration in a early proteolysis reaction, but was slightly increased in later.
