  • Reverse gyrase is a hyperthermophile specific protein which introduces positive supercoils into DNA molecules. Reverse gyrase consists of an N-terminal helicase-like domain and a C-terminal topoisomerase domain. The helicase-like domain shares the three-dimensional structure with two tandem RecA-folds (H1 and H2), in which the subdomain H2 is interrupted by the latch domain (H3). To understand the physical property of the hyperthermophile-specific protein, two subdomains af_H1 and af_H23 have been cloned into E. coli expression vector, pET28a. The $^{15}N$-labeled af_H1 and af_H23 proteins were expressed and purified for heteronuclear NMR study. The af_H1 protein exhibits the well-dispersion of amide signals in its $^1H/^{15}N$-HSQC spectra and thus further NMR study continues to be progressed.

  • In this paper, we propose a two-level overlapping domain decomposition preconditioner for three dimensional vector field problems posed in H(div). We introduce a new coarse component, which reduces the computational complexity, associated with the coarse vertices. Numerical experiments are also presented.

  • Let $R={\bigoplus}_{{\alpha}{\in}{\Gamma}}\;R_{\alpha}$ be a graded integral domain, H be the set of nonzero homogeneous elements of R, and ${\star}$ be a semistar operation on R. The purpose of this paper is to study the properties of $quasi-Pr{\ddot{u}}fer$ and UMt-domains of graded integral domains. For this reason we study the graded analogue of ${\star}-quasi-Pr{\ddot{u}}fer$ domains called $gr-{\star}-quasi-Pr{\ddot{u}}fer$ domains. We study several ring-theoretic properties of $gr-{\star}-quasi-Pr{\ddot{u}}fer$ domains. As an application we give new characterizations of UMt-domains. In particular it is shown that R is a $gr-t-quasi-Pr{\ddot{u}}fer$ domain if and only if R is a UMt-domain if and only if RP is a $quasi-Pr{\ddot{u}}fer$ domain for each homogeneous maximal t-ideal P of R. We also show that R is a UMt-domain if and only if H is a t-splitting set in R[X] if and only if each prime t-ideal Q in R[X] such that $Q{\cap}H ={\emptyset}$ is a maximal t-ideal.

  • 본 연구에서는 H2AX의 생리학적인 기능 및 분자세포 생물학적 기전 해석에 대한 보다 명확한 정보를 제시하고자, H2AX 관련 단백질들을 literature review 및 생물정보학적인 기술을 이용하여 최적의 결합 단백질체를 40개를 예측하곤 이들 가운데 상호작용 가능성이 높은 BRCA1와 BARD1 단백질을 선별하여 in vitro 결합실험을 통해 이를 증명하였다. 이들 두 가지의 유전자를 발굴하여, 클로닝하였다. 클로닝된 유전자를 이용하여 두 가지 단백질을 발현 및 정제하였으며, 단백질들의 자체적인 구조에 의한 결합능력을 판단하기 위해 in vitro binding assay법을 실시하였다. 단백질의 구조적 안정과 비특이적 결합을 억제하는 detergent만이 포함된 상태에서, 구조학적 및 물리학적 상호 결합의 유무를 판정할 수 있게 하였으며, BRCA1과 BARD1은 모두 H2AX에 결합함을 확인하였다. 이런 실험결과를 바탕으로 각각의 단백질에 대해 H2AX와의 최적 결합 부위를 알아내기 위해 각 유전자의 domain을 생물정보학적으로 분석하였다. 이에 RING domain, NES, NLS 및 BRCT domain에 해당하는 유전자 부분을 새로 클로닝하여, 다시 in vitro 결합실험 및 실험결과에 대한 literature review를 통한 분석을 실시한 결과, H2AX는 BRCA1의 NLS, BARD1의 BRCT domain 부분과 결합하는 것을 확인하였다. H2AX에 대한 BRCA1과 BARD1과의 결합은 DNA repair에 있어 BRCA1의 NLS와 BARD1의 BRCT domain을 통해 H2AX foci의 관련 세포 신호전달 기전에 중요한 역할을 하여 전체적으로 genomic stability에 영향을 미칠 가능성이 농후할 것으로 사료된다.

  • Polyurethane(PU)은 물리적 화학적 성질이 매우 다른 두 segment(hard/soft)로 이루어진 block copolymer로서 상온에서 미세상분리된 구조를 가진다. 이런 미세 상분리 구조는 PU의 물리적 성질을 결정하는 가장 중요한 요소이며, hard segment(H/S)의 화학적 구조에 따른 PU사슬의 강직성은 H/S의 packing및 상분리도에 큰 영향을 미친다. 본 연구에서는 H/S의 화학적 구조를 변화시켜 사슬의 강직성이 서로 다른 다양한 PU을 합성하였으며 Synchrotron SAXS와 FTIR-dichioism을 이용하여 PU 사슬의 강직성에 따른 거시적인 domain의 변형거동과 미시적인 사슬의 변형거동을 관찰 하였다.

  • This paper presents a numerical study on multigrid algorithms of V-cycle type for problems posed in the Hilbert space H(curl) in three dimensions. The multigrid methods are designed for discrete problems originated from the discretization using the hexahedral Nédélec edge element of the lowest-order. Our suggested methods are associated with smoothers constructed by substructuring based on domain decomposition methods of nonoverlapping type. Numerical experiments to demonstrate the robustness and the effectiveness of the suggested algorithms are also provided.

  • WW domains are small protein modules consisting of three-stranded antiparallel β-sheet, and involved in the protein-protein interaction for various biological systems. We overexpressed and purified WW2 domain from human AIP4/Itch (a member of Nedd4 family) using a pH/temperature dependent cleavage system. The backbone assignments of WW2 domain were completed, and secondary structure was predicted. Furthermore, backbone flexibility of WW2 domain was determined by 1H-15N heteronuclear NOE and amide hydrogen exchange experiments. The structural information would contribute to the structural determination of WW2 domain as well as the interaction study of WW2 domain with various binding partners.

  • The domain wall motion coercivity, $H_{c}$, of magnetic materials arises from the dependence of the wall energy on localized changes in material parameters (magnetization, anisotropy, exchange energy densities). However, in an otherwise perfectly homogeneous material, the domain wall energy might change due to the change in the volume of the wall versus the wall position. Thus, any surface roughness contributes to the coercivity. Assuming different two-dimensional surface profiles, characterized by average wavelengths ${\lambda}_{x}$ and ${\lambda}_{y}$, and relative thickness variations dh/h, the coercivity due to the surface roughness has been calculated. Compared to the one dimensional case, the 2D coercivity is reduced. Depending on the ratio of ${\lambda}$ to the domain wall width, $H_{c}$ has a maximum around 2, and increasing with dh/h. With the decreasing thickness of the thin film and GMR heads, it might be the domain factor in determining the coercivity.

  • Specific interaction of the epsin N-terminal homology(ENTH) domain with the plasma membrane appears to bridge other related proteins to the specific regions of the membrane that are invaginated to form endocytic vesicles. An additional $\alpha$-helix, referred to as helix 0 (H0), is formed in the presence of the soluble ligand inositol-1,4,5-trisphosphate [$Ins(1,4,5)P_3$] at the N terminus of the ENTH domain (amino acid residues 3-15). The ENTH domain alone and full-length epsin cause tubulation of liposomes made of brain lipids. Thus, it is believed that H0 is membrane-inserted when it is coordinated with the phospholipid phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate [$PtdIns(4,5)P_2$], resulting in membrane deformation as well as recruitment of accessory factors to the membrane. However, formation of H0 in a real biological membrane has not been demonstrated. In the present study, the membrane structure of H0 was determined by measurement of electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) nitroxide accessibility. H0 was located at the phosphate head-group region of the membrane. Moreover, EPR line-shape analysis indicated that no pre-formed H0-like structure were present on normal acidic membranes. $PtdIns(4,5)P_2$ was necessary and sufficient for interaction of the H0 region with the membrane. H0 was stable only in the membrane. In conclusion, the H0 region of the ENTH domain has an intrinsic ability to form H0 in a $PtdIns(4,5)P_2$-containing membrane, perhaps functioning as a sensor of membrane patches enriched with $PtdIns(4,5)P_2$ that will initiate curvature to form endocytic vesicles.
