생쥐 小腸의 deoxycytidine-2-$^14 C$ (CdR-2-$^14 C$)와 deoxyuridine-2-$^14 C$ (UdR-2-$^14 C$)의 代謝를 관계酵素의 熱處理에 대한 영향과 관련해서 in vitro에서 고찰하였다. CdR-2-$^14 C$는 CdR-aminohydrolase의 作用에 의해서 먼저 nucleoside level에 급속히 deamination된 후, nucleosidase의 作用에 의해 uracil로 分解된다. 생쥐 小腸에서는 nucleosidase 가 CdR과 CR에는 親和力이 없기 때문에 이들 cytosine nucleoside의 N-pentose 結合을 分解하지 못하는 것으로 보인다. CdR-aminohydrolase는 $80^\\circ C$ 높은 不活性化溫度를 나타냈으며, 이에 반해서 nucleosidase는 $60^\\circ C$에서 不活性化가 되었다. 品種이 다른 생쥐의 여러 組織에 있는 CdR-aminohydrolase는 모두 $80^\\circ C$에서 不活性化됨이 관찰되었으나, 토끼 組織에서는 $80^\\circ C$에서도 不活性化가 일어나지 않는 점으로 미루어 不活性化溫度에는 "屬"特異性이 있는 것으로 짐작된다. 哺乳類의 分化된 組織에서 CdR-aminohydrolase 가 出現하는 生物學的 意味는 주로 分解過程과 有關한 것으로 생각된다. 것으로 생각된다.

Micrococcus luteus purine nucleoside phosphorylase (PNP) has been purified and characterized. The physical and kinetic properties have been described previously. Chemical modification of the enzyme was attempted to gain insight on the active site. The enzyme was inactivated in a time-dependent manner by the arginine- specific modifying reagent phenylglyoxal. There was a linear relationship between the observed rate of inactivation and the phenylglyoxal concentration. At 30 $^{\circ}C$ the bimolecular rate constant for the modification was 0.015 $min^{-1}mM^{-1}$ in 50 mM $NaHCO_3$ buffer, pH 7.5. The plot of logk versus log phenylglyoxal concentration was a strainght line with a slope value of 0.9, indicating that modification of one arginine residue was needed to inactivate the enzyme. Preincubation with saturated solutions of substrates protected the enzyme from inhibition of phenylglyoxal, indicating that reactions with phenylglyoxal were directed at arginyl residues essential for the catalytic functioning of the enzyme.

Kimchi is the Korean traditional food which is fermented properly from salted Korean cabbage of raddish with other various supplements. Kimchi therefore can be the major sources for various kinds of nutrients and other biological substances. The fermentation process accompanies with complicated reaction mechanism which bacteria, fungi and yeast are involved and they produced aroma, taste and bioactive components. To identify nucleoside, this study was conducted with freeze-dried mustard leaf, mustard leaf kimchi and fermented mustard leaf kimchi. Hexane, CH$_2$Cl$_2$, EtOAc and BuOH was used in order to extract their components. The isolated compounds I and II from mustard leaf and mustard leaf kimchi were identified as adenosine and uracil using UV, $^{1}H$-NMR, $^{13}C$-NMR and LC-MS, respectively. Compound I, II and nucleosides are the first report of its occurrence from mustard leaf and their kimchi, the standardized ratios of ingredients for kimchi were 10 of anchovy juice, 8 of red pepper powder, 3 of garlic, 1.5 of ginger, 6 of paste of glutinous rice. The nucleoside of mustard leaf and their kimchi was determined and compared. The order of nucleosides contents of mustard leaf was uridine>cytosine>uracil>adenine>guanosine>guanin, that of fresh mustard leaf kimchi was uridine>uracil>cytosine>guanine>adenosine>adenin>guanosine and that of fermented mustard leaf kimchi (5days at 15$^{\circ}C$) was guanine>adenine>adenosine>guanosine. The differences of nucleoside contents from those were due to various supplements and fermentation process.

병원성 균주인 녹농균(Pseudomonas aeruginosa) 감염에 대응하여 나타나는 면역반응은 인체의 항상성 유지에 중요하다. 선행 연구에서 녹농균의 감염에 대응하여 bradykinin receptor (BR)의 발현이 증가됨을 보고하였지만, 발현유도에 관여하는 녹농균 유래인자에 대해서는 보고한 바가 없었다. 이번 연구에서는 녹농균에 의한 BR의 발현은 Type III secretion system (T3SS)이 관여하지만, 기존에 알려진 T3SS인자가 아닌 nucleoside diphosphate kinase (Ndk)에 의한 것으로 조사되었다. 하지만 pDNNDK를 이용한 transfection 실험 결과, Ndk 만으로는 BR의 발현이 유도되지 않았으며, Ndk와 함께 flagella가 필요함을 발견하였다. 이러한 결과는 기존에 보고된 주요 pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs)인 flagella와 더불어 감염대응에 관여하는 Ndk를 발굴한 의미가 있으며, 녹농균에 의한 질병기전을 이해하는데 도움을 줄 수 있다.

Novel 5'-norcarbocyclic adenine and guanine phosphonic acid analogues with 6'-electronegative moiety such as unsaturated C-C bond were designed and synthesized from commercially available 2-methylene-propane-1,3-diol (4). Regioselective Mitsunobu reaction successfully proceeded from an allylic functional group (${\pm}$)-12b at low reaction temperature in polar cosolvent (DMF/1,4-dioxane) to give purine phosphonate analogues (${\pm}$)-13 and (${\pm}$)-20. The purine nucleoside phosphonate and phosphonic acid analogues were subjected to antiviral screening against HIV-1. Guanine analogue (${\pm}$)-23 shows significant anti-HIV activity in PBM cell lines ($EC_{50}=8.1\;{\mu}M$).

2'($\beta$)-Hydroxymethylated adenosine is a potent and selective inhibitor of hepatitis C virus (HCV) replication. It targets the RNA-dependent RNA polymerase of HCV, NS5B. Synthesis and antiviral evaluation of carbocyclic versions are described. The cyclopentene intermediate ($9\beta$) was successfully synthesized through sequential Johnson-Claisen orthoester rearrangement and ring-closing metathesis (RCM). Coupling of bases via a Pd(0) catalyst, selective dihydroxylation, and desilylation yielded the target nucleoside analogues. The compounds 17 and 18 were assayed for their ability to inhibit HCV RNA replication in a subgenomic replicon Huh7 cell line and showed moderate antiviral activity with toxicity up to 20.0 and 24.7 ${\mu}g/mL$, respectively.

We investigated the expression profiles of rat fibrotic liver induced by bile duct ligation and scission (BDL/S) using the 3'-directed cDNA libraries. The possibility that the 3'-directed cDNA library represents the mRNA population faithfully was examined by northern blots. During the northern analysis based on fibrotic liver expression profile, we found for the first time that purine specific sodium nucleoside cotransporter (SPNT) was upregulated in BDL/S-induced fibrotic liver. To determine whether the accumulation of bile juice could affect the expression of SPNT mRNA or not, we examined the change of SPNT mRNA expression at 3, 14, 28 days after BDL/S operation. No change in SPNT expression was observed in rat liver at 3 days after surgery. In contrast, there were significant increases in SPNT expression at 14 and 28 days after surgery. We also examined whether chronic liver damage affected SPNT mRNA expression. SPNT mRNA level was significantly increased in BDL/S-induced fibrotic rat liver, whereas no significant change was obserbed in fibrotic livers chronically exposed to carbon tetrachloride or dimethylnitrosamine. From the above results, although further study might be needed, it was considered that the increment of SPNT mRNA in BDL/S liver morphological compatibility to human was remarkable.

Since its identification in 1989, hepatitis C virus has been the subject of extensive research. The biology of the virus and the development of antiviral drugs are closely related. The RNA polymerase activity of nonstructural protein 5B was first demonstrated in 1996. NS5B is believed to localize to the perinuclear region, forming a replicase complex with other viral proteins. It has a typical polymerase structure with thumb, palm, and finger domains encircling the active site. A de novo replication initiation mechanism has been suggested. To date, many small molecule inhibitors are known including nucleoside analogues, non-nucleoside analogues, and pyrophosphate mimics. NS5B interacts with other viral proteins such as core, NS3, 4A, 4B, and 5A. The helicase activity of NS3 seems necessary for RNA strand unwinding during replication, with other nonstructural proteins performing modulatory roles. Cellular proteins interacting with NS5B include VAMP-associated proteins, heIF4AII, hPLIC1, nucleolin, PRK2, ${\alpha}$-actinin, and p68 helicase. The interactions of NS5B with these proteins might play roles in cellular trafficking, signal transduction, and RNA polymerization, as well as the regulation of replication/translation processes.
