This study was attempted to evaluate the effectiveness of cold cardioplegic solution [group B] compared with that of intermittent aortic cross clamping [group A]. 1. In group A, two dogs recovered spontaneous heart beat without using defibrillator and one case was used defibrillator once. In group B, four dogs recovered the spontaneous heart beat even without defibrillator and in one animal the defibrillator was used three times. 2. There was no significant difference in serum electrolyte [Na+, Ca2+, Cl- ] between group, but K+ level was decreased in both group. 3. The group A showed more increasing in serum LDH activity than group B. 4. The postoperative myocardial ATP level was $2.35{\pm}0.10$ ${\mu}$M/Gm. of wet weight in control group, $1.46{\pm}0.16$${\mu}$M/Gm. of wet weight in group A [60.2% of control group], and $1.80{\pm}0.14$${\mu}$M/Gm. of wet weight in group B [76.8% of control group].

Liver and pulmonary artery tissue from 5 Angus cross bred steers, 6 goats, and 6 pigs were collected at a commercial abattoir to examine the relationship of pulmonary artery copper (Cu) concentrations and genes involved in copper homeostasis. Liver and pulmonary artery samples were collected at the time of harvest and snap frozen. Liver and pulmonary artery Cu concentrations were determined via flame atomic absorption spectrophotometry and gene expression was determined via real time PCR. Liver Cu concentrations (mg Cu/kg DM${\pm}$SE) were higher (p<0.01) in cows ($396.4{\pm}109.1$) and goats ($181.4{\pm}37.0$) than in pigs ($19.2{\pm}3.5$). All liver Cu concentrations were within normal ranges and considered adequate for each species. Liver Cu concentration was more variable in cows and goats compared to pig liver Cu concentrations. Pulmonary artery ${\beta}$-hydroxylproline was higher (p<0.01) in cow and pig than goat. Real Time PCR revealed that goat liver atp7a was positively correlated ($r^2$ = 0.92; p<0.01) to liver Cu concentrations while cow and pig atp7a was not correlated to liver Cu concentration. In the pig, liver atp7a concentration was positively correlated to atp7b ($r^2$ = 0.66; p<0.05). Pulmonary artery Cu concentration was highest in cows ($14.9{\pm}4.7$), intermediate in pigs ($8.9{\pm}3.3$), and lowest in goats ($3.9{\pm}1.1$). Goat pulmonary artery Cu concentration was not correlated to ctr1 concentration, however, atp7a concentration was positively correlated with ctr1 ($r^2$ = 0.90; p<0.01). In cow pulmonary artery, loxl1 concentration was positively correlated to eln mRNA concentration ($r^2$ = 0.91; p<0.02). Pulmonary artery CTR1 protein concentration was positively correlated to pulmonary artery Cu ($r^2$ = 0.85; p = 0.03) concentration while negatively correlated to liver Cu ($r^2$ = -0.79; p<0.04). Pulmonary artery Cu concentration was not correlated to concentration of Cu homeostatic genes in the pig. These data indicate that genes involved in Cu homeostasis (ctr1, atp7A, atp7B, loxl1 and eln) are differently regulated in different species.

This work reports studies of the catalytic and structural properties of pyridoxal kinase (ATP: pyridoxal 5' -phosphotransferase, EC. 2.7.1.35), Pyridoxal kinase catalyzes the phosphorylation of vitamin $B_6$ (pyridoxal, pyridoxamine, pyridoxine) using ATP-Zn as a phosphoryl donor. The enzyme purified from brain tissues is made up of two identical subunits of 40 kDa each. Native enzyme was inhibited by a substrate analogue, pyridoxal-oxime. Limited chymotrypsin digestion of pyridoxal kinase yields two fragments of 24 and 16 kDa with concomitant loss of catalytic activity. These fragments were isolated by DEAE ion exchange chromatography and used for binding studies with fluorescent ATP and pyridoxal analogues. The spectroscopic properties of both fluorescent pyridoxal analogue and Anthraniloyl ATP (Ant-ATP) bound to the 24 kDa fragment are indistinguishable from those of both pyridoxal analogue and Ant-ATP bound to the native pyridoxal kinase, respectively. The small 16 kDa fragment, generated by proteolytic cleavage of the kinase, does not bind any of the substrate analogues. Binding characteristics of Ant-ATP were extensively studied by measuring the changes in fluorescence spectra at various conditions. From the results presented herein, it is postulated that the structural domain associated with catalytic activity comprises approximately one-half of the molecular mass of pyridoxal kinase (24 kDa). whereas the remaining portion (16 kDa) of the enzyme contains a regulatory binding domain.

Changes in ATP and related compounds, TMAO, TMA, creatine and creatinine were analyzed to establish the processing conditions for rapid- and low salt-fermented liquefaction of anchovy(Engrulis japonica) extracts during fermentation. Experimental sample A: chopped whole anchovy, adding 20% water, heating at $50^{\circ}C$ for 9 hrs and then adding 10% NaCl. Sample B: chopped whole anchovy, adding 20% water, heating at $50^{\circ}C$ for 9 hrs and then adding 13% NaCl. Sample C: chopped whole anchovy adding 13% NaCl. Sample D: whole anchovy adding 17% NaCl. ATP, ADP, AMP and IMP were broken down during fermentation period, while inosine and hypoxanthine or hypoxanthine were detected in each fermented liquefaction of anchovy. However the amounts of them were varied from collection to collection according to the pretreatment methods. Possibly ATP and their related compounds will not make a great contribution to the umami taste in fermented liquefaction of anchovy. The contents of TMAO were decreased during fermentation period, ranging from 3 to 15 mg/100g in the fermented liquefaction of anchovy after 180 days. The TMA contents were increased slowly during fermentation period, ranging from 60 to 114 mg/100g in the 180 days specimens, however their contents were varied from sample to sample. The contents of creatine and creatinine were increased during early fermentation period, and then they were decreased in the last period. As for distribution of nitrogen in the anchovy extracts, the contribution of creatine and creatinine to the extractive nitrogen was occupying 6.8, 5.7, 4.6 and 5.7% in the experimental sample A, B, C and D, respectively. The contribution of ATP and related compounds to the extractive nitrogen was occupying 2.1, 2.4, 2.2 and 2.7% in the experimental sample A, B, C and D, respectively. The contribution of TMAO and TMA to the extractive nitrogen was very low as they are occupying $0.7{\sim}1.2%$ in the four experimental samples.

Kidneybean(Phaseolus vulgaris L.) and buckwheat(Fagopyrum esculentum M nch) seedlings grown with Hoagland solution to a height of 7 to 10 cm in the earthen pot containing sand were used for experimental plants. One group of the experimental plants was irrigated with Hoagland solution composed of various Pb-concentratons of 0 to 1000ppm containing 30ppm, and the other group was irrigated with Hoagland solution composed of various P-concentrations of 0 to 1,000ppm containing 30ppm Pb for a month during June and July in 1979. By Pb-surplus over 100ppm, the margins of buckwheat were curled down and turned into yellow-brown chlorosis, but the leaves of kidneybean were become dark-green at an early stage, and then developed chlorosis, finally shedded earlier than the control. Pb-toxicity was similar to the symptoms of P-deficiency. The ratio, 3/1 of chlorophyll a/b at an early stage, was unaffected by Pb-surplus or P-deficiency, but at the later stage it was altered. ATP content with Pb-surplus of 100ppm was decreased by 69% in kidneybean leaves and by 38% in buckwheat leaves, and it with P-deficiency was decreased by 75% in kidneybean leaves and by 43% in buckwheat leaves. In the assay of ATP content of the leaves at intervals of three hours for one day of July in the year, the rhythms of ATP level were unaffected by light or temperature although the amplitude of the level was modified. The rhythms of Pb-surplus and P-deficiency plants were observed at the lower range of ATP content than that of control.

음식물쓰레기 발효 소멸용 목질바이오칩의 종류별로 세공구조에 따른 음식물쓰레기 무게 감량율 및 미생물 활동성을 비교분석 하였다. 목질바이오칩을 이용한 음식물쓰레기 발효 소멸실험을 온도 $30{\sim}50^{\circ}C$, 습도 30~70% 조건의 발효 소멸 반응조에 15일간 매일 700~1,500g의 음식물쓰레기를 투입하며 실시하였다. 이 때 1,500g의 목질바이오칩을 발효 소멸 반응조에 초기에 투입하였다. 실험에 사용한 목질바이오칩의 세공구조는 미생물 혼합형(A 바이오칩), $2{\mu}m$ 마크로 세공형(B biochip), $0.1{\mu}m$ 미세공형(C 바이오칩), 점성구조형(D 바이오칩)으로 4가지 유형이었다. 실험결과, A, B, C, D 바이오칩별 발효 소멸에 의한 음식물쓰레기 무게감량율은 각각 85%, 63%, 92%, 73%이었고, C 바이오칩의 경우가 음식물쓰레기 감량율 92%로 최고값을 나타내었다. 또한, C 바이오칩은 ATP/COD $3.00{\times}10^{-10}$, ATP/TN $2.31{\times}10^{-11}$로 상대적으로 타 종류의 바이오칩보다 높은 결과를 나타내었다. 이는 발효 소멸반응에서 발생되는 미생물의 서식지를 충분히 제공하여 ATP/COD 및 ATP/TN이 높아졌고 미생물의 활동성이 강화되어 발효 소멸반응이 원활하게 진행된 결과에 기인하는 것으로 분석되었다.

Mucin release from hamster tracheal surface epithelial(HTSE) cells can be stimulated by extracellular ATP via activation of P$_2$ purinoceptors located on the cell surface which appears to be coupled to phospholipase C via G proteins. However, our preliminary data indicate that the ATP-induced mucin release involves, in part, activation of PKC, but not an increase in the intracellular Ca++ level, suggesting the presence of another pathway which is separate from the PLC-PKC pathway, In this study, we intended to confirm the previous observation and subsequently identify an additional mechanism. Confluent HTSE cells were metabolically labeled with either $^3$H-glucosamine or $^3$H-arachidonic acid(AA), and release of either $^3$H-mucin or $^3$H-AA was quantified following various treatments. $^3$H-mucin was assayed using the sepharose CL-4B gel-filtration method, whereas $^3$H-AA liberation was measured by counting $^3$H-radioactivity in the chase medium. We found that: (1)Desensitization of PKC by pretreatment with PMA completely abolished the mucin releasing effect of PMA but partially inhibited the ATP-induced mucin release; (2) ATP increases release of $^3$H-AA in a dose-dependent fashion; (3) mepacrine, an inhibitor of PLA$_2$, attenuates ATP-induced mucin release in a dose-dependent fashion. These results confirm our previous notion that the PLC-PKC pathway is responsible, in part, for ATP-induced mucin release. Furthermore, activation of PLA$_2$ appears to be an additional pathway which is involved in ATP-induced mucin release.

Chromatin dynamics is essential for maintaining genomic integrity and regulating gene expression. Conserved bromodomain-containing AAA+ ATPases play important roles in nucleosome organization as histone chaperones. Recently, the high-resolution cryo-electron microscopy structures of Schizosaccharomyces pombe Abo1 revealed that it forms a hexameric ring and undergoes a conformational change upon ATP hydrolysis. In addition, single-molecule imaging demonstrated that Abo1 loads H3-H4 histones onto DNA in an ATP hydrolysis-dependent manner. However, the molecular mechanism by which Abo1 loads histones remains unknown. Here, we investigated the details concerning Abo1-mediated histone loading onto DNA and the Abo1-DNA interaction using single-molecule imaging techniques and biochemical assays. We show that Abo1 does not load H2A-H2B histones. Interestingly, Abo1 deposits multiple copies of H3-H4 histones as the DNA length increases and requires at least 80 bp DNA. Unexpectedly, Abo1 weakly binds DNA regardless of ATP, and neither histone nor DNA stimulates the ATP hydrolysis activity of Abo1. Based on our results, we propose an allosteric communication model in which the ATP hydrolysis of Abo1 changes the configuration of histones to facilitate their deposition onto DNA.
