NG-SDH 시스템에서는 시스템으로 들어오는 이더넷신호를 GFP 프레임으로의 신호동기가 필요하다. 지금까지 외국에서는 칩셋 개발이 완료되어 관련 기술을 확보하고 있지만 국내에서는 아직 확보하지 못하고 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 GFP를 통한 이더넷 신호의 동기화 방법을 제시하였다. GFP-F를 통한 이더넷 신호의 동기화 방법은 Ingress 및 Egress 버퍼와 GFP idle를 통해서 신호동기를 얻을 수 있음을 알았다. 또한 GFP-T를 통한 이더넷 신호의 동기화 방법은 GFP Idle과 $65B{\_}PAD$를 적용해야 하고, 최대 3비트까지 이더넷 Idle의 추가 및 삭제되어야 함을 알았다. 또한 신호특성 시뮬레이션을 통해서는 신호동기의 실현과 함께 Egress 출력에서의 MTIE와 TDEV 특성과 첨두치 지터를 얻었다.

형광단백질 (green fluorescent protein, GFP)은 생물공정을 살피데 지표 단백질로 유용하게 사용이 된다. 본 연구에서는 쌀세포에서 외래 단백질의 발현양상을 관찰하기 위해서, 표지 단백질로 GFP를 형질전환 후 이것에서 유도된 현탁세포에서 GFP의 발현 양상을 관찰하였다. 형질전환시 GFP의 발현을 위한 프로모터로 RAmysE를 사용하였으며 이것은 배양액 중에서 당이 고갈되었을 때 강력히 작동된다. 그래서 본 연구에서는 배양액 중에 다양한 슈크로오스 농도로 쌀세포를 배양하여 세포의 성장양태 및 GFP의 발현양에 미치는 영향을 관찰한 결과 세포의 성장은 12%의 당농도에서 7.06g/L로 최적이였으며 GFP는 당을 가장 적게 사용한 3%에서 최적임을 알 수가 있었다. 이것은 세포의 성장과 GFP의 생산에 사용된 당이 반대로 영향을 미침을 알 수가 있었으며 향후 최적의 대량배양을 위해서는 세포의 성장과 산물의 생산시기를 분리한 이단계 배양법이 필요함을 암시한다.

Two piglets and one juvenile pig were used to investigate closely what types of cells express green fluorescent protein (GFP) and if any, whether the GFP-tagged cells could be used for stem cell transplantation research as a middle-sized animal model in bone marrow cells of recloned GFP pigs. Bone marrow cells were recovered from the tibia, and further analyzed with various cell lineage markers to determine which cell lineage is concurrently expressing visible GFP in each individual animal. In the three animals, visible GFP were observed only in proportions of the plated cells immediately after collection, showing 41, 2 and 91% of bone marrow cells in clones #1, 2 and 3, respectively. The intensity of the visible GFP expression was variable even in an individual clone depending on cell sizes and types. The overall intensities of GFP expression were also different among the individual clones from very weak, weak to strong. Upon culture for 14 days in vitro (14DIV), some cell types showed intensive GFP expression throughout the cells; in particular, in cytoskeletons and the nucleus, on the other hand. Others are shown to be diffused GFP expression patterns only in the cytoplasm. Finally, characterization of stem cell lineage markers was carried out only in the clone #3 who showed intensive GFP expression. SSEA-1, SSEA-3, CD34, nestin and GFAP were expressed in proportions of the GFP expressing cells, but not all of them, suggesting that GFP expression occur in various cell lineages. These results indicate that targeted insertion of GFP gene should be pursued as in mouse approach to be useful for stem cell research. Furthermore, cell- or tissue-specific promoter should also be used if GFP pig is going to be meaningful for a model for stem cell transplantation.

처음으로 real time으로 유전자 발현을 visualization할 수 있는 marker를 이용할 수 있게 되었다. 이 maker가 바로 green fluorescent protein(GFP; 녹색형광단백질)이다. GFP는1962년 Shimomura 등에 의하여 해파리인 Aequorea victoria에 존재함이 밝혀졌다(1). 그러나 30년이 지난 1992년이 되어서야 Plasher등에 의하여 GFP의 cDNA가 클로닝 되었고(2) 이후 지금까지 약 10년 동안 GFP는 생명과학분야에서 가장 각광받는 유용한 단백질 중의 하나가 되어 매우 다양한 연구에 응용이 되고 있다. 이렇게 GFP가 생명과학분야에서각광을 받게 된 이유로는 GFP가 모든 외래의 세포에서 형광을 발할 수 있는 활성을 가진 형태로 발현되기 때문이다(3). Chalfie 등은 처음으로 GFP를 대장균과 Caenorhabditis elegans에서 발현시켜 유전자의 발현을 모니터함으로써 GFP를 원핵 및 진핵세포 모두에서 사용할 수 있다는 것을 보고하였다(3), 이러한 발견을 통하여 GFP는 살아있는 세포, 조직 및 생물체에 해를 주지 않고 (non-invasive) 유전자의 발현을 측정하는 marker로서 사용할 수 있게 되어 cell biology, developmental biology, neurobiology 및 cytology 등의 연구분야에 널리 이용되고 있다.

The transient and rapid expression system of a foreign protein in planta is a very useful technique in biotechnology application. We have investigated optimum condition of Agrobacterium-infiltration technique in which expression level of foreign proteins were maximized without detrimental effects on plants using GFP and Cucumber mosaic virus 2b protein, which is known as an enhancer of gene expression and a suppressor of post-transcriptional gene silencing(PTGS). The optimum expression level of both RNA and protein of GFP with minimum leaf impairment was obtained at $OD_{600}$=0.2 of Agrobactrium inocula. The steady-state levels of GFP RNA and protein generally peaked at 3 and 7 days post-infiltration(dpi), respectively. In the presence of 2b, both the magnitude and duration of GFP expression was highly increased and we could detect GFP level until 17 dpi. On the other hands, the 2b-mediated higher accumulation of foreign proteins resulted in the repression of normal leaf growth, possibly due to the limitation of supply of energy or materials required for growth maintenance. Using this Agrobacterium-infiltration system with 2b and GFP, we tested a hypothesis for the threshold model of PTGS initiation. Four GFP transgenic lines of N. benthamiana, which shows different expression level of GFP were tested to determine the threshold level for PTGS initiation. Agrobacterium-infiltration of GFP into those GFP-transgenic plants resulted in the co-silencing of the transgenic GFP. It was found that very low concentration of Agrobacterium with GFP and GFP+2b($OD_{600}$=0.002-0.02) which could not phenotypically induce an additive GFP expression, was enough to trigger PTGS pathway in all GFP transgenic plants. This strongly indicates that each GFP-transgenic plant should be expressing the transgenic GFP at its own pre-determined level and there was no buffer zone of additive GFP-expression to the threshold. In other words, the PTGS seems to be immediately activated as a self-defensive mechanism if an internal balance of gene expression is broken.

We have expressed GFP in Sf9 and Bm5 cells or Bombyx mori larvae by using Ac-Bm hybrid virus capable of replicating in both Bm5 and Sf9 cells. Genomic DNA of Ac-Bm hybrid virus expressing ${\beta}$-galactosidase was cotransfected with baculovirus transfer vector containing GFP gene, pBacPAK-GFP in Sf9 cells. The Ac-Bm hybrid virus harboring GFP was named as Ac-Bm hybrid virus-GFP. The Ac-Bm hybrid virus-GFP-infected insect cells were easily selected by detecting the emission of GFP from each well of cell culture dish on the UV illuminator. GFP produced by Ac-Bm hybrid virus-GFP in Sf9 and Bm5 cells or B. mori larvae was confirmed by SDS-PAGE and Western blot analysis using GFP antibody. In addition, B. mori larvae infected with Ac-Bm hybrid virus-GFP was apparently appeared fluorescence from the whole body at S days postinoculation. The fluorescence of GFP from the hemolymph and fat body of B. mori larvae infected with Ac-Bm hybrid virus-GFP was also observed by fluorescence microscope. In conclusion, our results demonstrated that in baculovirus expression vector system, use of Ac-Bm hybrid virus have an additional advantage of expanded host range for producing recombinant proteins.

Background: Fluorescent antibody virus neutralization (FAVN) test is a standard assay for quantifying rabies virus-neutralizing antibody (VNA) in serum. However, a safer rabies virus (RABV) should be used in the FAVN assay. There is a need for a new method that is economical and time-saving by eliminating the immunostaining step. Objectives: We aimed to improve the traditional FAVN method by rescuing and characterizing a new recombinant RABV expressing green fluorescent protein (GFP). Methods: A new recombinant RABV expressing GFP designated as ERAGS-GFP was rescued using a reverse genetic system. Immuno-fluorescence assay, peroxidase-linked assay, electron microscopy and reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction were performed to confirm the recombinant ERAGS-GFP virus as a RABV expressing the GFP gene. The safety of ERAGS-GFP was evaluated in 4-week-old mice. The rabies VNA titers were measured and compared with conventional FAVN and FAVN-GFP tests using VERO cells. Results: The virus propagated in VERO cells was confirmed as RABV expressing GFP. The ERAGS-GFP showed the highest titer (10^8.0 TCID₅₀/mL) in VERO cells at 5 days post-inoculation, and GFP expression persisted until passage 30. The body weight of 4-week-old mice inoculated intracranially with ERAGS-GFP continued to increase and the survival rate was 100%. In 62 dog sera, the FAVN-GFP result was significantly correlated with that of conventional FAVN (r = 0.95). Conclusions: We constructed ERAGS-GFP, which could replace the challenge virus standard-11 strain used in FAVN test.

In order to establish a reliable and highly efficient method for genetic transformation of pepper, a monitoring system featuring GFP (green fluorescent protein) as a report marker was applied to Agrobacteriummediated transformation. A callus-induced transformation (CIT) system was used to transform the GFP gene. GFP expression was observed in all tissues of $T_0$, $T_1$ and $T_2$ peppers, constituting the first instance in which the whole pepper plant has exhibited GFP fluorescence. A total of 38 T0 peppers were obtained from 4,200 explants. The transformation rate ranged from 0.47 to 1.83% depending on the genotype, which was higher than that obtained by CIT without the GFP monitoring system. This technique could enhance selection power by monitoring GFP expression at the early stage of callus in vitro. The detection of GFP expression in the callus led to successful identification of the shoot that contained the transgene. Thus, this technique saved lots of time and money for conducting the genetic transformation process of pepper. In addition, a co-transformation technique was applied to the target transgene, CaCS (encoding capsaicinoid synthetase of Capsicum) along with GFP. Paprika varieties were transformed by the CaCS::GFP construct, and GFP expression in callus tissues of paprika was monitored to select the right transformant.

Transgenic mice expressing green fluorescent protein (GFP) under the control of human glial fibrillary acidic protein promoter (hGFAP) have been utilized for in vivo labeling of astrocytes. Although it has been considered that virtually all astrocytes express GFP in this transgenic mouse, we found that different subsets of GFAP-expressing astrocytes express considerably different levels of GFP in the adult brain. Astrocytes in the spinal cord, the molecular layer of thecerebellum, meninges, white matter, corpus callosum and blood vessels exhibited strong GFP, whereas subsets of astrocytes associated with granule cells in the cerebellum and dentate gyrus did not or only marginally exhibited GFP. We also found that a small subset of GFP-expressing cells in the periglomeruli of the olfactory bulb did not express GFAP immunoreactivity. Collectively, these results suggest that human GFAP promoter-derived GFP expression does not faithfully recapitulate the endogenous GFAP expression in mice, suggesting that upstream regulatory mechanisms controlling GFAP transcription are different in different populations of astrocytes, and may reflect the functional diversity of astrocytes.
