  • Streptococcus hyointestinalis B19 was isolated from chicken feces collected from local farm in Anseong, Korea. S. hyointestinalis B19 was shown to produce bacteriocin-like compounds exhibiting inhibitory activities against several pathogens including strains of Clostridium perfringens and Listeria monocytogenes. The whole genome of S. hyointestinalis B19 strain was sequenced using PacBio RS II platform. The genome comprised four contigs with a size of 2,217,061 bp. The DNA G + C content was found to be 42.95 mol%. Annotation results revealed 2,266 coding sequences (CDSs), 18 rRNAs, and 61 tRNA genes. Based on genome analysis, we found that the strain B19 possessed various genes associated with bacteriocin synthesis, modification, and transport.

  • 5'-XMP를 5'-GMP로 전환하는 효소인 XMP aminase[EC 6.3.4.1]의 활성을 증가시키기 위하여 XMP aminase의 유전자를 함유한 1.7kb gua A gene fragment를 pLC 34-10으로부터 분리하여 pBR 322에 subcloning 한 뒤 trp promoter를 가지고 있는 대장균 발현 벨터 pDR 720에 도입하였다. 재조합된 pXAR 64에 존재하는 gua A 유전자는 trp Promoter에 의하여 발현이 증대되었으며 $3-{\beta}-indoleacrylic$ acid에 의하여 XMP aminase의 생성이 유도되었다. XMP aminase의 비활성은 pLC 34-10을 함유한 균주에 비하여 약 17배 증가되었다.

  • Dumortiera hirsuta (Sw.) Nees (Dumortieraceae) is a thallose liverwort distributed in tropics and subtropics. It is the only species in family Dumortieraceae, which is the second basal family in order Marchantiales. D. hirsuta is characterized by hairy receptacles and lacking air chamber. The complete chloroplast genome of D. hirsuta was successfully rescued from raw reads generated by HiSeq4000. Its total length is 122,050 bp consisting of four regions: large single copy (LSC) region (81,697 bp), small single copy (SSC) region (20,061 bp), and two inverted repeats (IRs; 10,146 bp per each). It contained 129 genes (84 coding DNA sequence (CDS), eight rRNAs, and 37 tRNAs); 18 genes including four rRNAs, and five tRNAs are duplicated in the IR regions. The overall GC content of D. hirsuta is 28.7%, which is almost same to that of Marchantia paleacea. Phylogenetic tree based on all genes from whole chloroplast genomes will provides phylogenetic position of D. hirstua. This sequence will be an fundamental resources for further researches of order Marchantiales.

  • Glycinin and $\beta$-conglycinin are the most abundant storage protein in soybean. These proteins are known to be synthesized predominantly during germination and cell expansion phase of seed development for short period, and synthesized not in other tissues. Genes encoding these storage proteins are useful system to study the mechanism of development stage and tissue specific gene expression in eukaryotes, especially plants, at the molecular level. The cDNA and genomic clones coding for glycinin have been isolated and regulation mechanism of the gene expression has been studied. Initially, development and tissue-specific expression of the glycinin gene is regulated at the level of transcription. Post-transcriptional processing is also responsible for delayed accumulation of the mRNA. Translational control of the storage protein gene has not been reported. Post-translational modification is another strategic point to regulate the expression of the gene. It is possible to identify positive and/or negative reguratory clements in vivo by producing transgenic plants agter gene manipulation. Elucidation of activation and repression mechanism of soybean storage protein genes will contribute to the understanding of the other plant and eukaryotic genes at molecular level.

  • The role of $Ca^{2+}$ in making functional malate synthase in Corynebacterium glutamicum was investigated using the cloned DNA coding for the enzyme. Introduction of cloned aceB into C. glutamicum overexpressed malate synthase as judged by SDS-PAGE. However, the increase in enzyme activity of the expressed malate synthase did not match the level of overexpression observed in SDS-PAGE. Addition of $Ca^{2+}$ to the growth medium specifically increased the activity. The malate synthase could be stained with ruthenium red in a $Ca^{2+}$-specific manner. This agrees with the previous observation which reported a potential $Ca^{2+}$-binding domain in the N-terminal region of the protein.

  • Graph theory is becoming increasingly significant as it is applied of mathematics, science and technology. It is being actively used in fields as varied as biochemistry(genomics), electrical engineering(communication networks and coding theory), computer science(algorithms and computation) and operations research(scheduling). The powerful results in other areas of pure mathematics. Rhis paper, besides giving a general outlook of these facts, includes new graph theoretical proofs of Fermat's Little Theorem and the Nielson-Schreier Theorem. New applications to DNA sequencing (the SNP assembly problem) and computer network security (worm propagation) using minimum vertex covers in graphs are discussed. We also show how to apply edge coloring and matching in graphs for scheduling (the timetabling problem) and vertex coloring in graphs for map coloring and the assignment of frequencies in GSM mobile phone networks. Finally, we revisit the classical problem of finding re-entrant knight's tours on a chessboard using Hamiltonian circuits in graphs.

  • The cel7A sequence variation was analyzed between the wild type (Lentinula edodes KACC42378) and its cellulase activity enhanced mutant LER277. LER277 was induced by using gamma ray radiation ($^{60}Co$) at the $LD_{99}$ dose (0.94 kGy). Cloning and sequencing results showed that the cel7A coding DNA sequence (CDS) of LER277 had five nucleotide substitutions ($T{\rightarrow}C$, 201, 285 and 744 nt; $A{\rightarrow}G$, 525 nt; $C{\rightarrow}T$, 540 nt) and one hexanucleotide repeat insertion (GGCACC, within 1375-1392 nt) compared to that of the wild type. The Five nucleotide substitutions did not change the deduced amino acids and the hexanucleotide insertion elongated the GT repeat in a serine/threonine/glycine-rich linker. These results suggest that the enhancement of the cellulase activity in LER277 partly stemmed from cel7A changes by which the GT repeat of the linker is elongated.

  • A cDNA encoding the luciferase of firefly Luciola lateralis was cloned downstream from the polyhedrin gene promoter of Bombyx mori nucleopolyhedrovirus and expressed in B. mori cells (BmN-4). The coding soquence for luciferase was inserted into pBmKSK2 rectors) which was reconstructed from the polyhedrin-based transfer vector pBmKSKl by modifying cloning sites. Recombinant virus, BmK2-LUCDF, containing the luciferase gene was selected and purified in BmN-4 cells. The emission of luminescence by luciferase was only detected in BmK2-LUCDF-infected cell extracts. This result indicates that the cloned new luciferase gene of firefly L. lateralis can be expressed efficiently in baculovirus expression system and used as a useful reporter gene.

  • 본 연구는 우리나라의 주요양식 품종인 북방전복을 대상으로 지금까지 전복류에서는 사용되지 않았던 mtDNA의 protein coding 영역 ND2, ND5, ND4, ND4L, ND6, ND1의 6개영역과 protein noncoding 영역인 12SrRNA(ribosomal RNA) 을 포함해 총 7개 영역을 이용하여 각 영역의 유전적 변이성 및 개체간 유전적 유연관계 등을 분석하여 각 영역별 특성을 파악하고 이러한 특성을 고려하여 유전학적 분석에 적합한 분자유전마커를 개발하였다. 유전적 변이성은 ND4 영역 (Haplotype diversity = 1.000, Nucleotide diversity = 0.010823) 이 가장 높게 나타났으며, 개체간의 유전적 차이는 ND2 및 ND1 영역이 각각 90% 및 87%로 유의적으로 명확히 구분할 수 있었다. 따라서 유전적 변이성이 가장 높은 ND4 영역과 영역내의 클러스터 간의 유전적 차이가 명확한 ND2 및 ND1 영역을 복합적으로 활용할 경우 북방 전복의 집단유전학 및 계통분류학 분석에 유용한 분자유전마커로 사용할 수 있을 것이라 생각된다.
