American plum line pattern virus (APLPV), a member of the genus Ilarvirus in the family Bromoviridae, is one of the plant quarantine pathogens in Korea. In this study, 15 candidate primer sets were designed and examined to develop a reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) assay for plant quarantine inspection of APLPV. Using APLPV-infected and healthy samples, the primer sets were assessed for APLPV detection. To confirm the occurrence of nonspecific reactions, six ilarviruses (Apple mosaic virus, Asparagus virus 2, Blueberry shock virus, Prune dwarf virus, Prunus necrotic ringspot virus, and Tobacco streak virus) and 10 target plants (Prunus mume, P. yedoensis, P. persica, P. armeniaca, P. dulcis, P. tomentosa, P. avium, P. glandulosa, P. salicina, and P. cerasifera) were examined. Finally, two primer sets were selected. These primer sets could generate the expected amplicons even with at least 1 ng of the total RNA template in concentration-dependent amplifications. In addition, a positive clone was developed for use as a positive control in the abovementioned RT-PCR assay.

A pregnant-induced clone was identified by differential screening from a cDNA library of bovine mammary gland. The clone was identified as a cDNA encoding a polyadenylate binding protein 1 (PABP). The cDNA clone had a total length of 1,911 nucleotides coding for 636 amino acids. The nucleotide sequence of the bovine PABP was 95% and 94% identical to those of human and mouse species, respectively. Comparison of the deduced amino acid sequences of bovine PABP with those of human species showed 100% identity. Induction of the PABP mRNA was observed in bovine mammary tissues at pregnant 7 and 8 months compared to virgin, lactating and involuted states. Expression of the PABP gene was examined in mammary epithelial HC11 cells at proliferating, differentiated and apoptotic conditions. The mRNA levels of PABP gene were similar between proliferating and differentiated cells, but expression levels were very low in apoptotic cells compared to other conditions. Results demonstrate that the PABP gene is induced during pregnancy at which stage mammary epithelial cells are actively proliferating.

Histone acetylation modification is one key mechanism in the regulation of gene activation. In this study, we investigated the global levels of histone H4 acetylation of insulin like growth factor I (IGF1) and growth hormone (GH) genes in the lungs of two somatic cell cloned calves. Data showed the levels of histone H4 acetylation of IGF1 and GH genes vary widely within different gene regions, and, in almost all regions of the two genes, acetylation levels are lower in the aberrant clone than in the normal clone. Thus we suggest that inefficient epigenetic reprogramming in the clone may affect the balance between acetylation and deacetylation, which will affect normal growth and development. These findings will also have implications for improvement of cloning success rates.

한우의 성장단계 특이발현 유전자를 탐색하기 위하여, 본 연구에서는 유전자의 발현 유무 및 발현정도의 차이를 나타내는 유전자를 분리하는데 있어 가장 강력한 수단으로 알려진 subtractive cDNA hybridization 기법을 이용하여 한우 등심조직으로부터 12개월령 및 24개월령 특이적인 subtractive cDNA library를 제작하였다. 성장단계 특이적인 유전자를 탐색하기 위하여, 6, 12 및 24개월령 cDNA를 사용하여 reverse northern blot 분석을 실시하였으며, 6개월령 cDNA probe에 대하여 특이적인 signal을 나타낸 3개의 clone은 EPV 20, Ca2+ ATPase, 및 TCTP 유전자와 유사성을 나타내었다. 12개월령 cDNA probe에 대하여 특이적인 signal을 나타낸 9개의 cDNA clone은 각각 VCP, HSP 70, aldolase A, MSSK1, GM-2 activator protein, ryanodine receptor, acidic ribosomal phosphoprotein p1, ADP/ATP translocase T1 및 UCP 2 유전자와 높은 homology를 가지고 있었다. 또한 2개의 clone이 각각 12개월령 및 24개월령 cDNA probe에 대하여 특이적인 signal을 나타내었는데, 12개월령 cDNA probe에 대해서만 signal을 나타낸 clone은 ferrochelatase 유전자와 유사하였으며, 24개월령 probe에 대해서만 signal을 나타낸 clone은 ADRP 유전자와 유사하였다. 이상에서와 같이, 본 연구에서 제작한 성장단계 특이적인 subtractive cDNA library를 분석하여 14종의 유전자를 한우 성장단계 특이 발현 후보 유전자로 선정하여 염기서열을 분석하였으며, 이외에도 성장단계에 있어 특이적으로 발현될 것으로 추정되는 cDNA 클론의 염기서열을 분석하였다.

To understand the molecular mechanisms that regulate intramuscular fat deposition and its release, cDNA clones expressed in adipose tissues of Korean cattle were identified by differential screening from adipose tissue cDNA library. By partial nucleotide sequencing of 486 clones and a search for sequence similarity in NCBI nucleotide databases, 245 clones revealed unique clones. By a functional grouping of the clones, 14% of the clones were categorized to metabolism and enzyme-related group (stearoyl CoA desaturase, lactate dehydrogenase, fatty acid synthase, ATP citrate lyase, lipoprotein lipase, acetyl CoA synthetase, etc), and 6% to signal transduction/cell cycle-related group (C/EBP, cAMP-regulated phosphoprotein, calmodulin, cyclin G1, cyclin H, etc), and 4% to cytoskeleton and extracellular matrix components (vimentin, ankyrin 2, gelosin, syntenin, talin, prefoldin 5). The obtained 245 clones will be useful to study lipid metabolism and signal transduction pathway in adipose tissues and to study obesity in human. Some clones were subjected to full-sequencing containing open reading frame. The cDNA clone of bovine homolog of human prefoldin 5 gene had a total length of 959 nucleotides coding for 139 amino acids. Comparison of the deduced amino acid sequences of bovine prefoldin 5 with those of human and mouse showed over 95% identity. The cDNA clone of bovine homolog of human ubiquitin-like/S30 ribosomal fusion protein gene had a total length of 484 nucleotides coding for 133 amino acids. Comparison of the deduced amino acid sequences of bovine ubiquitin-like/S30 ribosomal fusion protein gene with those of human, rat and mouse showed over 97% identity. The cDNA clone of bovine homolog of human proteolipid protein 2 mRNA had a total length of 928 nucleotides coding for 152 amino acids. Comparison of the deduced amino acid sequences of bovine proteolipid protein 2 with those of human and mouse showed 87.5% similarity. The cDNA clone of bovine homolog of rat thymosin beta 4 had a total length of 602 nucleotides coding for 44 amino acids. Comparison of the deduced amino acid sequences of bovine thymosin beta 4 gene with those of human, mouse and rat showed 93.1% similarity. The cDNA clone of bovine homolog of human myotrophin mRNA had a total length of 790 nucleotides coding for 118 amino acids. Comparison of the deduced amino acid sequences of bovine myotrophin gene with those of human, mouse and rat showed 83.9% similarity. The functional role of these clones in adipose tissues needs to be established.

한국의 6개 지역에서 채집한 흰넓적다리붉은쥐(Apodemus peninsulae p peninsulae)를 사용하여. 8개 제한효소로 절단한 미토콘드리아 DNA(mtDNA) 의 단펀들을 분석하였다. 총 29개의 절단단편들이 나타났고. 7개 mtDNA의 clone이 밝혀졌다. 이들 m mtDNA clone간의 nucleotide-sequence divergence(p)는 0.42-2.01%였으 며, 이들은 평균 divergence가 1. 52%인 3개 소군으로 나뒤어졌다. 한 소군은 3 개 clone으로써 3개 지역의 18마리(청주 16. 소백산 1. 설악산 1)였고, 다른 한 소군은 3개 clone으로 4개 지역의 8p1-리(청주 2. 월악산 2. 가야산 2. 해남 2)였 다 나머지 한 소군은 1개 clone으로 청주의 2마리였다. 뿐만아니라, 이들 3개 소 군은 Stu I의 genotype에 있어서 서로 뚜렷한 차이를 보였고, 전자의 2개 소군과 마지막 소군과는 Pvu II의 genotype이 달랐다. 이들 뚜렷한 mtDNA 소군의 분류학적 위치를 규명하기 위하여 한국내 여러지역 의 더 많은 표본들을 사용한 계속적인 연구가 필요하다고 본다.

These experiments were carried out to develop the technique of nuclear transplantation necessary for elevating utilization efficiency of high quality embryos and the production of clone animals. Embryos of pronucleus stages were obtained from ICR mice. Removal of pronuclei and their transfer to recipient embryos were carried out by micromanipulation and virus mediation. The results obtained in these experiments were summarized as follows ; 1. Total 337 pairs of pronuclear stage embryos were subjected to nuclear transplantatin and 247 pairs(73.3%) of them were successfully transplanted and the number of fused embryos between transplanted nucleus and cytoplasm was 188 pairs(55.8%). 2. Of the 188 fused embryos cultured in vitro, 174(92.4%), 131(69.7%) and 117(62.2%) embryos were developed to 2-cell, morula and blastocyst stages, respectively. 3. When total 104 nuclear transplanted embryos were transferred to uteri of recipient mice on day 2-3 of pseudopregnancy, 4 of 12 recipient mice were pregnant and the number of embryos developed to young was 28(26.9%).
