Saccharomyces distaticus 의 glucoamylase 생성능을 증진시킬 목적으로 STA1 유전자를 YIp vector 를 이용하여 염색체에 도입해 주고자 하였다. STA1 유전자 5.8-Kb 를 YIp vector 에 재조합하여 YIp-STA 를 재작하고, S. diastaticus GMT-11 (a, ura 3, STA1) 을 숙주균주로 하여 염색체의 STA1 유전자 부위에 homologous recombination 되어 삽입하도록 형질전환을 실시하였다. 이렇게 하여 glucoamylase 생성능이 모균주에 비해 최대 6배까지 증대된 다양한 형질전환체들을 얻을 수 있었다. 그리고 glycoamylase 생성능이 증대된 형질전환체들의 염색체 DNA 를 분리하여 Southern hybridization 을 실시한 결과 YIp-STA 가 multi-copy integration 되었음을 확인하였고, 또한 도입해 준 YIp-STA 는 세포분열인 30세대기간 동안 계속되었어도 안정하게 유지되었음을 알았다.

In this study we propose an automatic reading system for diagnostic DNA chips. We define a general specification for an automatic reading system and propose a possible implementation method. The proposed system performs the whole reading process automatically without any user intervention, covering image acquisition, image analysis, and report generation. We applied the system for the automatic report generation of a commercialized DNA chip for cervical cancer detection. The fluorescence image of the hybridization result was acquired with a $GenePix^{TM}$ scanner using its library running in HTML pages. The processing of the acquired image and the report generation were executed by a component object module programmed with Microsoft Visual C++ 6.0. To generate the report document, we made an HWP 2002 document template with marker strings that were supposed to be searched and replaced with the corresponding information such as patient information and diagnosis results. The proposed system generates the report document by reading the template and changing the marker strings with the resultant contents. The system is expected to facilitate the usage of a diagnostic DNA chip for mass screening by the automation of a conventional manual reading process, shortening its processing time, and quantifying the reading criteria.

DNA damage by physical insult including UV and g-radiation might provoke genetic alterations in cells, which is followed by either acute cell death or tumorigenesis. The responsiveness to g-radiation depends on cellular context of target cells. To understand the mechanisms of checkpoint control, repair and cell death following genotoxic stimu]i, cDNA microarray can provide the gene expression profile. To make a profile of gene expression in irradiated Jurkat T cells, we hybridized the cDNA microarray using cDNA from g-irradiated Jurkat T cells. Jurkat T cells were exposed to 4Gy to 16Gy, and total RNA were extracted at 4 to 24 hrs after irradiation. The hybridization of the microarray to fluorescence-labeled cDNA from treated and untreated cells was analyzed by bioinformatic analysis to address relative changes in expression levels of the genes present in the array. Responses varied widely in different time points, suggesting acute stress response and chronic restoration or cell death. From these results we could select 384 genes related to radiation response in Tcells, and radiation response might be different in various types of cells. Using Radchip, we could separate "the exposed" from control PBMCs. We propose that Radchip might be useful to check the radiation research as well as radiation carcinogenesis.

본 연구에서는 genomic DNA 전기영동과 TUNEL labeling법을 이용하여 정상대장조직, 대장암조직, 대장암 인접림프절조직과 대장암환자 혈액에서 apoptosis 발현을 분석하였다. 정상대장조직 37례중 4례에서, DNA ladder가 확인되었고, 암조직은 47례중 20례에서, 림프절조직은 15례중 5례에서 나타났으며 대장암환자혈액은 7례 모두에서 발현되지 않았다. TUNEL labeling법을 이용한 조직상의 in situ apoptosis발현은 암조직과 림프절조직에서 확인되었다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 대장암이 진행됨에 따라 apoptosis 발현비가 증가되었으므로 apoptotic index가 대장암 발현과 관련되어 있는 듯 하며 예후예측지표자로서 이용될 가능성이 있다고 사료된다.

rbcL 유전자 발현조절에 관한 연구의 일환으로 Cp DNA로부터 분리한 rbcL 유전자를 클로닝하였다. 옥수수의 엽록체로부터 DNA를 분리한 후 제한효소 BamHI으로 절단하여 rbcL 유전자가 포함된 BamHI 9 절편을 pUC19에 클로닝하여 재조합 플라스미드 pRLYS1을 만들었다. 쌀의 rbcL 유전자 일부를 probe로 사용하여 pRLYS1과 Southern hybridization한 결과와 제한효소 BamHI, HindIII, 그리고 PstI으로 절단된 pRLYS1 절편의 전기영동 결과로부터 재조합 플라스미드의 내부에 완전한 rbcL 유전자의 존재를 확인하였고 삽입방향을 결정하였다.

Here we present a sensitive DNA detection protocol using quantum dots (QDs) and magnetic beads (MBs) for large volume samples. In this study, QDs, conjugated with streptavidin, were used to produce fluorescent signals while magnetic beads (MBs) were used to isolate and concentrate the signals. The presence of target DNAs leads to the sandwich hybridization between the functionalized QDs, the target DNAs and the MBs. In fact, the QDs-MBs complex, which is bound using the target DNA, can be isolated and then concentrated. The binding of the QDs to the surface of the MBs was confirmed by confocal microscopy and Cd elemental analysis. It was found that the fluorescent intensity was proportional to concentration of the target DNA, while the presence of non-complementary DNA produced no significant fluorescent signal. In addition, the presence of low copies of target DNAs such as 0.5 pM in large volume samples up to 40mL was successfully detected by using a magnet-assisted concentration protocol which consequently results in the enhancement of the sensitivity more than 100-fold.

Coprinus congregatus에서 laccase를 과량생성하는 변이주를 대상으로 phosphinothricin 저항성을 선택표지로 사용하여 형질전환을 수행하였다. 항생물질에 대한 저항성을 부여하는 plasmid DNA(pBARGEM 7-1)를 제한효소로 가수분해하여 원형질체에 형질전환을 수행한 결과 plasmid DNA $1{\mu}g$ 당 약 500여개의 형질전환체를 얻었다. 도입된 plasmid는 형질전환체의 chromosomal DNA에 삽입되어 있음을 Southern blot으로 확인하였다.

The genus Paeonia belongs to the family Paeoniaceae having significant medicinal and ornamental importance. The present investigation was undertaken with an aim to understand phylogenetic relationships of three Paeonia species (P. lactiflora, P. obovata, and P. suffruticosa) that are widely distributed in China, Korea, and Japan, using nuclear ribosomal DNA (nrDNA) internal transcribed spacer (ITS) sequence and to compare the phylogeny results with investigations reported earlier using existed sequences of the same species. The size variation obtained among sequenced nrDNA ITS region was narrow and ranged from 722 to 726 bp. The highest interspecific genetic distance (GD) was found between P. lactiflora and P. suffruticosa or P. obovata. The phylogram obtained using our nrDNA ITS sequences showed non-congruence with previous hypothesis of the phylogeny between section Paeonia and section Moutan of genus Paeonia. This result was supported by the phylogenetic relations showed in the phylogram constructed with existed sequences in NCBI. The present study suggested that P. obovata belonging to section Paeonia was phylogenetically closer to P. suffruticosa representing section Moutan of genus Paeonia than P. lactiflora belonging to section Paeonia. The main reason of the paraphyly of section Paeonia is thought to be nucleotide additivity directly caused by origin hybridization. This study provides more sequence sources of genus Paeonia, and will help for further studies in intraspecies population, and their phylogentic analysis and molecular evolution.

To investigate flowering related genes in winter-type oilseed rape (Brassica napus L. cv. Tammi), differentially expressed genes were isolated from leaves of the plant after low temperature treatment which is requirements for floral induction. As a result of suppression subtractive hybridization (SSH), 288 clones were randomly selected from SSH library. Using reverse Northern blot analysis, 150 of 288 clones were identified to be differentially expressed. Out of these 150 clones, 45 clones showed very high identities with the known genes. Four clones showed very high identities over 90% with metallothionein-like gene that is related to flowering-induced genes. Of these 4 clones, the cDNA clone, rfs-13, revealed high identity with meotallothionein-like protein in Arabidopsis thaliana (98%) and Brassica compestris (89%). Furthermore, gene expressed in immature flower stages was confirmed by Northern blot analysis.
