Bis-[dipyrido[3,2-$\alpha$:2',3'-c]phenazine)$_2$(1,10-phenanthroline)$_2Ru_2$]$^{2+}$ complexes (bis-Ru(II) complexes) tethered by linkers of various lengths were synthesized and their binding properties to DNA investigated by normal absorption and linear dichroism spectra, and fluorescence techniques in this study. Upon binding to DNA, the bis-Ru(II) complex with the longest linker (1,3-bis-(4-pyridyl)-propane), exhibited a negative $LD^r$ signal whose intensity was as large as that in the DNA absorption region, followed by a complicate $LD^r$ signal in the metal-to-ligand charge transfer region. The luminescence intensity of this bis-Ru(II) complex was enhanced. The observed $LD^r$ and luminescence results resembled that of the [Ru(1,10-phenanthroline)$_2$ dipyrido[3,2-$\alpha$:2',3'-c]phenazine]$^{2+}$ complex, whose dipyrido[3,2-$\alpha$:2',3'-c]phenazine (dppz) ligand has been known to intercalate between DNA bases. Hence, it is conclusive that both dppz ligands of the bis-Ru(II) complex intercalate. The binding stoichiometry, however, was a single intercalated dppz per ~ 2.3 bases, which violates the "nearest binding site exclusion" model for intercalation. The length between the two Ru(II) complexes may be barely long enough to accommodate one DNA base between the two dppz ligands, but not for two DNA bases. When the linker was shorter (4,4'-bipyridine or 1,2-bis-(4-pyridyl)-ethane), the magnitude of the LD in the dppz absorption region, as well as the luminescence intensity of both bis-Ru(II) complexes, was half that of the bis-Ru(II) complex bearing a long linker. This observation can be elucidated by a model whereby one of the dppz ligands intercalates while the other is exposed to the aqueous environment.

Alkalophilic coryneform bacteria TU-19 isolated from soil extracellularly produced at least three proteases (Protease I, II, and III). Investigating the cultural conditions related to the enzyme production of this bacterial cell, the optimum pH and temperature were 10.0 and $30^{\circ}C$, respectively. In order to purify these enzymes from the 2 day culture broth ammonium sulfate fractionation, gel filtration and QAE-Sephadex column chromatography were performed step by step. And then these three proteases were purified to near homogeneity by judging from SDS-PAGE pattern, and had the molecular weights of 120, 80, and 45 kilodaltons, respectively. The optimum pH and temperature for the enzyme activity of Protease I and II were 10.5 and $45^{\circ}C$, respectively, and Protease II were 11.0 and $50^{\circ}C$. And the enzymes were completely inhibited by PMSF suggesting serine protease, but not affected by pCMB. 1,10-phenanthroline, IAA, and EDTA.

유기발광소자는 빠른 응답속도, 높은 색재현성, 높은 명암비의 장점을 가지고 있어 차세대 디스플레이로 각광 받고 있으며, 이미 소형 디스플레이로 상용화되고 있다. 유기발광소자에서는 발광효율을 높이기 위해서 전하들의 균형이 매우 중요하다. 유기발광소자 내 정공의 이동도는 전자의 이동도보다 빠르기 때문에 정공의 이동도를 감소하거나, 전자의 이동도를 증가하여 전하들의 균형을 형성함으로 유기발광소자의 효율을 증진시키는 연구가 진행되고 있다. 본 연구는 유기발광소자의 전자 수송층을 다층구조로 적층하여 전자의 이동도를 증가하여 효율이 증진하는 메커니즘을 기본으로 하였다. 전자 수송층을 tris(8-hydroxyquinoloine)aluminum ($Alq_3$) 단일층, 4,7-diphenyl-1, 10-phenanthroline (BPhen)과 $Alq_3$의 혼합층및 BPhen과 $Alq_3$ 다층 구조로 제작한 유기발광소자의 전기적, 발광 특성을 비교 분석하였다. BPhen은 lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO) 준위가 $Alq_3$의 LUMO 준위와 유사하여 전자 주입이 효율적으로 일어나며, 또한 낮은 highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) 준위는 정공 저지층의 역할을 하여 발광층 내에서 전하의 균형을 효율적으로 맞춰준다. 유기발광소자는 N,N,'-bis-(1-naphthyl)-N,N'-diphenyl1-1'-biphenyl-4,4'-diamine (NPB)/ $Alq_3$/ 다양한 전자수송층 / lithium quinolate (Liq)/ aluminium (Al) 음극 전극으로 각각 증착하여 제작하였다. 전자수송층을 다층 구조로 사용한 유기발광소자는 발광효율이 혼합층과 단일층에 비해 높았으며, 최대 발광효율은 전류밀도가 273 mA/cm2일때 4.5 cd/A였다. 다층구조의 전자수송층에서 다층으로 증착된 BPhen이 효율적인 전자 주입 및 전공 저지하는 역할을 최적화 하여 발광층에 더 많은 엑시톤이 형성하여, 유기발광소자의 효율을 증진시켜 준다는 사실을 알 수 있었다.

Organic dye-doped glasses, viz., ruthenium (II) tris(4,7'-diphenyl-1,10'-phenanthroline) $[Ru(dpp)_3]^{2+}$ incorporated into thin silica xerogel films produced by the sol-gel method, were prepared and their $O_2$ quenching properties investigated as a function of the $[Ru(dpp)_3]^{2+}$ concentration (3-400 ${\mu}M$) within the xerogel. The ratio of the luminescence from the $[Ru(dpp)_3]^{2+}$-doped films in the presence of $N_2$ and $O_2$ ($I_{N2}/I_{O2}$) was used to describe the film sensitivity to $O_2$ quenching. ($I_{N2}/I_{O2}$ changed three-fold over the $[Ru(dpp)_3]^{2+}$ concentration range. Time-resolved intensity decay studies showed that there are two discrete $[Ru(dpp)_3]^{2+}$ populations within the xerogels (${\tau}_1$ ~ 300 ns; ${\tau}_2$ ~ 3000 ns) whose relative fraction changes as the $[Ru(dpp)_3]^{2+}$ concentration changes. The increased $O_2$ sensitivity that is observed at the higher $[Ru(dpp)_3]^{2+}$ concentrations is a manifestation of a greater fraction of the 3000 ns $[Ru(dpp)_3]^{2+}$ species (more susceptible to $O_2$ quenching). A model is presented to describe the observed response characteristics resulting from $[Ru(dpp)_3]^{2+}$ distribution within the xerogel.

The active sites of the nickel and iron-containing enzyme, carbon monoxide dehydrogenase (CODH) from clostridium thermoaceticum were investigated using Electron Paramagnetic Resonance (EPR) technique. CODH exhibits several spectral features called NiFeC, $g_{ave}=1.82$, $g_{ave}=1.86$. FCII signals which are originated from different clusters in this enzyme. CODH is know to catalyze two different kinds of reactions - acetyl-CoA synthesis and CO oxidation. The acetyl-CoA synthesis activity can be followed by monitoring CO/acetyl-CoA exchange. The addition of 1,10-phenanthroline (phen) to CODH selectively destroyed the CO/acetyl-CoA exchange activity and eliminated the NiFeC signal completely. CO oxidation activity and other EPR signals were unaffected. Such behavior demonstrates that CODH has two distinct active sites and that the NiFe complex is only responsible for the CO/acctyl-CoA exchange activity. Phen caused the removal of only 30% of Ni in the NiFe complex ($0.3Ni/{\alpha}{\beta}$) as shown by the quantitative metal analysis. The phen-treated CODH could be reactivated fully by incubation In $Ni^{2+}$ solution. Radioactive $^{63}Ni^{2+}$ was used to quantitate the amount of the $Ni^{2+}$ incorporated into phen-treated enzyme and showed that the amount was the same as the removed by the phen treatment. i.e. $0.3Ni/{\alpha}{\beta}$. This indicates that only 30% of NiFe complexes are labile and responsible for the CO/acctyl-CoA exchange activity, the other 70% are non-labile and have no exchange activity. This is the first clear evidence that the NiFe complex is heterogencous and labile and non-labile Ni sites arc interacting differently with substrates and chelating agents like phen.

Luminescent films were prepared by infiltration of tris(dibenzoylmethane) mono(1, 10-phenanthroline) europium incorporated ormosil into colloidal $SiO_2$ photonic crystal templates. The PL intensity of the infiltrated film into the template was about 13 times higher than that of the plane film prepared without the template.

The metal-ligand complex, ［Ru(phen)$_2$(dppz)]^{2＋}$ (phen = 1.10-phenanthroline, dppz = dipyrido［3.2-a:2', 3'-c］phenazine) (RuPD), was used as a spectroscopic probe for studying nucleic acid dynamics. The RuPD complex displays a long lifetime and a molecular light switch property upon DNA binding due to shielding of its dppz ligand from water. (omitted)

This paper describes the purification and partial characteristics of aminopeptidase from Microccus sp. LL3 to utilize the microorganism as a potential agent for industrial application for the purpose of shortening ripening period of cheddar cheese. The optimal temperature and pH for enzyme activity were $35^{\circ}C$ and 7.0, respectively for L-leucine-p-nitroanilide as substrate. The enzyme remained stable for 10 minutes up to $50^{\circ}C$. The activity of aminopeptidase was stimulated by $Mg^{++}$ ion but strongly inhibited by $Hg^{++}$, metal complexing reagents, ethylenediaminetetraacetate (EDTA) and 1,10-phenanthroline. The enzyme was thought to be metallopeptidase. This enzyme had a broad substrate specificity, but was inactive on peptide with arginine as N-terminal amino acid. An intracellular aminopeptidase from Micrococcu sp. LL3 was purified by chromatography on DEAE-Sephacel and filtration on Sepacryl S-300. The enzyme has a molecular weight of 43,500.
