본 연구에서는 인공지능(Artificial Intelligence)방법 중의 하나인 유전자 알고리즘(Genetic Algorithm)을 도로선형최적화 모형개발의 탐색엔진으로 활용하기 위한 핵심도구인 유전자 연산자(Genetic Operator)의 개발과 적용과정을 통해 그 특징과 유용성을 제시하였다. 균일돌연변이 연산자, 직선돌연변이 연산자. 비균일 돌연변이 연산자, 전체 비균일 돌연변이 연산자 등 4개의 돌연변이 연산자가 탐색영역(Search space)의 가능한 모든 부분을 탐험(Exploration)하기 위해 적용되었으며, 단순교차 연산자, 두 개의 점을 이용한 교차 연산자, 산술교차 연산자, 학습교차 연산자 등 4개의 교차 연산자가 노선대안의 우수한 유전형질을 다음세대에 효과적으로 전달(Exploitation)하기 위해 시험되었다. 사례연구와 민감도 분석과정을 통해 유전자 알고리즘 및 개발 적용된 8개 유전자 연산자의 도로선형최적화과정 도입이 우수한 노선대안을 빠르고 효과적으로 탐색함을 알 수 있었으며, 돌연변이 연산자와 교차 연산자의 효과적 조합이 상호보완기능을 통해 탐색능력의 향상에 큰 영향을 끼치는 것으로 파악되었다. 또한, 개발 적용된 연산자 이외에도 새로운 연산자의 개발 가능성이 무한하며, 이는 도로선형최적화에 유전자 알고리즘의 적용이 타당함을 반증함도 주목할 만하다.

In this report, we describe an optimized method for generation of ephA8 BAC transgenic mice expressing the lacZ reporter gene under ephA8 regulatory sequences. First, we constructed a targeting vector that carries a 1.2 kb ephA8 DNA upstream of its first exon, a lacZ expression cassette, a kanamycin cassette, and a 0.7 kb ephA8 DNA downstream of its first exon. Second, the targeting vector was electroporated into cells containing the ephA8 BAC and pKOBEGA, in which recombinases induce a homologous recombination between the ephA8 BAC DNA and the targeting vector. Third, the FLP plasmid expressing the Flipase was electroporated into these bacteria to eliminate a kanamycin cassette from the recombinant BAC DNA. The appropriate structures of the modified ephA8 BAC DNA were confirmed by Southern analysis. Finally, BAC transgenic mouse embryos were generated by pronuclear injection of the recombinant BAC DNA. Whole mount X-gal staining revealed that the lacZ reporter expression is restricted to the anterior region of the developing midbrain in each transgenic embryo. These results indicate that the ephA8 BAC DNA contains most, if not all, regulatory sequences to direct temporal and spatial expression of the lacZ gene in vivo.

Recently, the nucleotide sequences of entire genomes became available. This information combined with older sequencing data discloses the exact chromosomal location of millions of nucleotide markers stored in the databases at NCBI, EMBO or DDBJ. Despite having resolved the intron/exon structures of all described genes within these genomes with a stroke of a pen, the sequencing data opens up other interesting possibilities. For example, the genomic mapping of the end sequences of the human, murine and rat BAC libraries generated at The Institute for Genomic Research (TIGR), reveals now the entire encompassed sequence of the inserts for more than a million of these clones. Since these clones are individually stored, they are now an invaluable source for experiments which depend on genomic DNA. Isolation of smaller fragments from such clones with standard methods is a time consuming process. We describe here a reliable one-step cloning technique to obtain a DNA fragment with a defined size and sequence from larger genomic clones in less than 48 hours using a standard vector with a multiple cloning site, and common restriction enzymes and equipment. The only prerequisites are the sequences of ends of the insert and of the underlying genome.

Using next-generation sequencing, we conducted a genome-wide scan of selective sweeps associated with selection toward genetic improvement in Thoroughbreds. We investigated potential phenotypic consequence of putative candidate loci by candidate gene association mapping for the finishing time in 240 Thoroughbred horses. We found a significant association with the trait for Ral GApase alpha 2 (RALGAP2) that regulates a variety of cellular processes of signal trafficking. Neighboring genes around RALGAP2 included insulinoma-associated 1 (INSM1), pallid (PLDN), and Ras and Rab interactor 2 (RIN2) genes have similar roles in signal trafficking, suggesting that a co-evolving gene cluster located on the chromosome 22 is under strong artificial selection in racehorses.

Most neuroblastoma cells have chromosomal aberrations such as gains, losses, amplifications and deletions of DNA. Conventional approaches like fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) or metaphase comparative genomic hybridization (CGH) can detect chromosomal aberrations, but their resolution is low. In this study we used array-based comparative genomic hybridization to identify the chromosomal aberrations in human neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y cells. The DNA microarray consisting of 4000 bacterial artificial chromosome (BAC) clones was able to detect chromosomal regions with aberrations. The SH-SY5Y cells showed chromosomal gains in 1q12~ q44 (Chr1:142188905-246084832), 7 (over the whole chro-mosome), 2p25.3~p16.3 (Chr2:18179-47899074), and 17q 21.32~q25.3 (Chr17:42153031-78607159), while chromosomal losses detected were the distal deletion of 1p36.33 (Chr1:552910-563807), 14q21.1~q21.3 (Chr14:37666271-47282550), and 22q13.1~q13.2 (Chr22:36885764-4190 7123). Except for the gain in 17q21 and the loss in 1p36, the other regions of gain or loss in SH-SY5Y cells were newly identified.

By the progress of genome sequencing, infrastructures for marker-assisted breeding (MAB) of rice came to be established. Fine mapping and gene isolation have been conducted using the breeding materials derived from natural variations and artificial mutants. Such genetic analysis by the genome-wide dense markers provided us the knowledge about the many genes controlling important traits. We identified several genes or quantitative trait loci (QTL) for heading date, blast resistance, eating quality, high-temperature stress tolerance, and so on. NILs of each gene controlling heading date contribute to elongate the rice harvest period. Determination of precise gene location of blast resistance gene pi21, allowed us to overcome linkage drag, co-introduction of undesirable eating quality. We could also breed the first practical rice cultivar in Japan with a brown planthopper resistance gene bph11 in the genetic back-ground of an elite cultivar. Discovery of major and minor QTLs for good eating quality allowed us to fine-tune of eating quality according to the rice planting area or usage of rice grain. Many rice cultivars have bred efficiently by MAB for several traits, or by marker-assisted backcross breeding through chromosome segment substitution lines (CSSLs) using genetically diverse accessions. We are also systematically supporting the crop breeding of other sectors by MAB or by providing resources such as CSSLs. It is possible to pyramid many genes for important traits by using MAB, but is still difficult to improve the yielding ability. We are performing a Genomic Selection (GS) for improvement of rice biomass and grain yield. We are also trying to apply the genome editing technology for high yield rice breeding.

ADP-glucose pyrophosphorylase (AGPase) catalyzes the key regulatory step in starch biosynthesis. Two cDNA clones encoding AGPase subunits were isolated from the leaf cDNA library of Chinese cabbage (Brassica campestris L. spp. pekinensis). One was designated as BCAGPS for the small subunit and the other as BCAGPL for the large subunit. Both cDNAs have uninterrupted open reading frames deriving 57 kDa and 63 kDa polypeptides for BCAGPS and BCAGPL, respectively, which showed significant similarity to those of other dicot plants. Also, However, the deduced amino acid sequence of BCAGPL has a unique feature. That is, it contains two regions (Rl and R2) lacking in all other plant enzymes. This is the first report of BCAGPL containing Rl and R2 among plant large subunits as well as small subunits. From the genomic Southern analysis and BAC library screening, we inferred the genomic status of BCAGPS and BCAGPL gene.

This paper presents a new method for multiobjective optimization using Genetic Algorithm-Sexual Reproduction Model(SR model). In SR model, each individual consists of chromosome pairs. Sex cells(gametes) are produced through artificial meiosis in which crossover and mutation occur, The proposed method has two selection operators, one, individual selection which selects the individual to fertilize, and the other, gamete selection which makes zygote for offspring production, The two selection schemes are repectively conducted according to different fitness(or objective) function and consequently give a solution which is unbiased to any objectives. We apply the proposed method to optimization of the design parameters of Linear Induction Motor(LIM) and show its effectiveness.
