The aklavinone 11-hydroxylase which was overexpressed using T7 promoter in E. coli could be detected in SDS-PAGE only in insoluble precipitate without any detectable enzyme activity. The insoluble enzyme was solubilized in 6M guanidine$.$HCl solution and their refolding ability was tested under various conditions. When the enzymatic activity was checked by the bioconversion experiment, stepwise dialysis against 6M, 3M, 1M guanidine$.$HCl and finally 100 mM potassium phosphate buffer of the solubilized protein gave the best bioconversion efficiency. The aklavinone 11-hydroxylase showed its enzymatic activity in the reaction buffer containing NADPH with vigorous shaking. The enzymatic activity was lost during partial purification and regained by the addition of crude extract of S. lividans in the reaction mixture. This effect was confirmed to due to some low-molecular weight component(s) in the crude extract, because the addition of dialyzed crude extract could not recover the enzymatic activity.

Femtosecond vibrational spectroscopy was used to probe the dynamics of CO rebinding to hemoglobin (Hb), denatured by 4.0 M GdnHCl in $D_2O# at 283 K, after photolysis of HbCO. The stretching mode of $^{13}CO$ bound to the denatured $Hb^{13}CO$ showed a single band centered at 1922 $cm^{-1}$, indistinguishable from that of denatured $Mb^{13}CO$. Geminate rebinding of CO to the denatured Hb was accelerated more than 1000 times, suggesting that the native structure of the Hb is required to suppress efficient geminate rebinding of CO, as is the case in Mb. The geminate yield and rate for CO rebinding are almost the same in both the denatured Hb and Mb. Similarity in the equilibrium spectrum and rebinding dynamics of CO indicates that the state of the denatured Hb is very similar to that of the denatured Mb. In the denatured Hb, quaternary contact of the protein is likely severed, with the denatured protein existing as an independent subunit much like Mb.

카드뮴(Cd)에 의해 유도되는 담배의 생장과 rubisco/rubisco activase에 미치는 ESA (ethylsalicylic acid)의 효과 및 이에 대한 변성제의 효과를 연구하였다. 담배기내 배양에 대한 ESA의 최적 농도를 찾기 위해, $10^{-6}$-10 mM ESA를 처리하여 배양시킨 결과, $10^{-4}$ mM ESA에서 생장이 가장 높게 나타났다. 최적농도인 $10^{-4}$ mM ESA와 0.2 mM $CdCl_2{\cdot}2.5H_2O$를 사용하여, 대조구, Cd 처리구, ESA 처리구 및 Cd와 ESA 혼합구에서의 담배의 생장을 측정한 결과, ESA 처리구의 생장이 가장 좋았으며, Cd 처리구의 생장이 가장 저조하였다. Rubisco/rubisco activase의 함량과 활성을 측정한 결과, 두 가지의 함량과 활성 모두 Cd 처리구가 가장 낮았으며, ESA 처리구에서는 Rubisco와 rubisco activase의 함량이 감소되었고, 활성은 증가하였다. Guanidine-HCl 처리를 제외한 L-cysteine, urea, thiourea, ${\beta}$-mercaptoethanol, EDTA에 의해 rubisco의 활성이 억제되었으며, L-cysteine, urea, thiourea, guanidine-HCl 처리구에서는 rubisco activase 활성이 변화가 없었으나, ${\beta}$-mercaptoethanol과 EDTA는 활성을 증가시키는 것으로 나타났다. 결론적으로, ESA는 rubisco의 함량을 억제시키고 활성은 촉진시키며, rubisco activase의 함량은 촉진시키고 활성은 억제시켰다. 또한 Cd에 의해 저해된 rubisco와 rubisco activase의 활성이 변성제에 의해 저해되었으며, Cd에 의해 저해된 ESA의 회복이 변성제에 의하여 상실되었다.

hGH 와 GST 절편으로 구성된 융합 단백질의 고정화 UK 칼럼에 의한 절단 반응 후 용출액의 pH를 3.5 로 낮춤으로써 이물질들을 침전시키고 이를 expanded bed chromatography 칼럼에 통과시킨 결과, 이물질들의 제거와 hGH 단량체의 흡착분리가 동시에 이루어겼다 . 흡착된 단량체는 NaCl 에 의해 용출되었으며 이 단계의 수율은 거의 100% 이었다 , 따라서 칼럼에 의한 절단 반응과 산 침전에 의한 이물질 침잔 반응 EBA 에 의한 이물질 제거 및 단량체 회수 반응을 연속적으로 진행할 수 있는 기초를 제시하였다 . 또한 고정화된 UK 는 guanidine HCl(6M)을 이용하여 unfolding 시키고 이를 세척하여 refolding 시킨 결과 20 회의 반복적인 처리 후에도 초기 활성의 약 80% 수준을 유지하였다. 이는 UK 가 공유결합된 상태에서 solid-phase refolding 이 가능하다는 증거이며, 고정화 효소 칼럼의 수영을 크게 향상시켜 경제성을 확보하는 방안으로 이용될 것으로 기대된다.

Dicyma sp. YCH-37이 생산하는 효모세포벽 용해효소의 성질을 검토한 결과, 각종 환원제와 금속이온에 대체로 안정하였고, guanidine-HCl을 제외한 여러 화학수식제에 대해서도 안정하였다. 배양시간, 전처리 및 배양조건에 따른 영향을 검토한 결과, 정지기 및 사멸기에 있는 효모보다는 대수증식기의 효모, 그리고 생효모에 비해 열처리된 효모가 더 잘 용균되었다. Butanol, acetone 등의 유기용매로 처리된 효모가 그렇지 않은 효모보다 용균도가 좋았으며, 0.5 M ammonium sulfate가 함유된 Yeast extract-Malt extract 배지에서 생육한 효모, 그리고 진탕배양한 효모보다 정치배양한 효모가 용균효소에 의해 더 잘 용균되었다. SDS, Triton X-100, ${\beta}-mercaptoethanol$, potassium chloride, sodium sulfite 등의 화학수식제를 효소반응액에 첨가하였을 때 기질 효모는 더 잘 용균되었다.

The structural stability of brain pyrydoxine-5'-phosphate (PNP) oxidase and the catalytic properties of the monomeric species were investigated. The unfolding of brain pyridoxine-5'-phosphate (PNP) oxidase by guanidine hydrochloride (GuHCl) was monitored by means of fluorescence and circular dichroism spectroscopy Reversible dissociation of the dimeric enzyme into subunits was attained by the addition of 2 M GuHCl. The perturbation of the secondary structure under the denaturation condition resulted in the release of the cofactor FMN. Separation of the processes of refolding and reassociation of the monomeric species was achieved by the immobilization method. Dimeric PNP oxidase was immobilized by the covalent attachment to Affi-gel 15 without any significant lass of its catalytic activity. Matrix-bound monomeric species were obtained from the reversible refolding processes. The matrix bound-monomer was found to be catalytically active, possessing only a slightly decreased specific activity when compared to the refolded dimeric enzyme. In addition, limited chymotrypsin digestion of the oxidase yields two fragments of 12 and 161 kDa with a concomitant increase of catalytic activity The catalytically active fragment was isolated by ion exchange chromatography and analyzed for association of two subunits using the FPLC gel filtration analysis. The retention time indicated that the catalytic fragment of 16 kDa behaves as a compact monomer. Taken together, these results are consistent with the hypothesis that the native quaternary structure of PNP oxidase is not a prerequisite for catalytic function, but it could play a role in the regulation.

The effects of several variables on the refolding of hen egg white lysozyme have been studied, Lysozyme was denatured in both urea, and guanidine hydrochloride(GuHCl), and batch refolded by dilution (100 to 1000 fold) into 0.1 M Tris-HCI, pH 8.2 mM EDTA 3 mM reduced glutathione and 0.3 mM oxidised glutathions. Refolding was found to be sensitive to temperature, with the highest refolding yield obtained at 50$\^{C}$. The apparent activation energy for lysozyme re-folding wasf ound to be 56kJ/mol, Refolding by dilution results in low concentrations of both de-naturant and reducing agent species. It was found that the residual concentrations obtained dur-ing dilution(100-fold dilution:[GuHCI]=0.06 mM, [DTT]=0.15 mM) were significant and could inhibit lysozyme refolding. This study has also shown that the initial protein concentration (1-10mg/mL) that is refolded is an important parameter. In the presence of residual GuHCl and DTT higher refolding yields were obtained when starting from higher initial lysozyme concentra-tions. This trend was reversed when residual denaturant components were removed from the re-folding buffer.

The effect of cryopreservation on extracellular matrix was studied with the ultimate objective of permiting a prediction of the tendency of aorta conduit tissue to calcify following transplantation. Cryopreserved and fresh porcine aorta conduit tissues were extracted using guanidine-hydrochloride (Gdn-HCl) followed by sequential digestion of the tissues with collagenase, elastase, and papain. Glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) of the proteoglycans (PGs) were isolated and quantitated. Gdn-HCl extracted about 61% and 62% of the total GAG (proteoqlycan) material from cryopreserved and fresh tissues, respectively. Collagenasesolubilized proteoglycans from Gdn-HCl extracted tissue represented 20% and 13%, respectively, of the total GAGs present in cryopreserved and fresh tissues. Subsequent elastase hydrolysis of collagenase-digested tissue released about 11% of total GAGs from cryopreserved tissue and 16% from fresh tissue. The remaining 8%, from cryopreserved tissue, and 9%, from fresh tissue, of the total GAGs were obtained after using a papain hydrolysis. There was essentially no difference between fresh and cryopreserved tissues in the relative distribution of proteoglycans in the extracts and digestions except in the initial digestion step where more proteoglycans were obtained from collagenase solubilization of cryopreserved tissue than fresh tissue (p<0.05). The histologic status of the fresh and cryopreserved porcine aortic conduit did not differ markedly. The normal tissue architecture was not affected markedly by the cryopreservation procedure as neither alteration of elastic structure, fibrous proteins nor alteration of nuclear distribution or smooth muscle cell morphology was detected. Quantitative tissue mineral studies revealed that the mean calcium content of the cryopreserved aorta conduit tissue $(165{\pm}3\;{\mu}g/g\;wet\;tissue)$ was higher than that of the fresh tissue $(105{\pm}4\;{\mu}g/g\;wet\;tissue)$ $(p<0.05)$. The mean phosphorus content was $703{\pm}35\;{\mu}g$ wet tissue from cryopreserved tissue and $720{\pm}26\;{\mu}g$ wet tissue from fresh tissue. The study indicates that there is no significant alteration in the distribution of PGs in properly cryopreserved tissue, but the total calcium level appears to be increased in tissue cryopreserved by the cryopreservation process used in this study.
