Utilization of yeast extract and formation of byproduct metabolite were investigated for hyperthermophilic archaeon Sulfolobus solfataricus (DSH 1617). In both batch and fed-batch cultivations of S. solfataricus, maximal cell density, {{{{ { NH}`_{4 } ^{ +} }}} ion production and pH change were highly dependent on the ratio of yeast extract to glucose in the medium. Variation of {{{{ { NH}`_{4 } ^{ +} }}}} ion level was identified as a major cause of pH change during cultivation, and acidification of culture broth was attributed to consumption of {{{{ { NH}`_{4 } ^{ +} }}}} ions rather than formation of acid byproducts. It was also observed that increase of {{{{ { NH}`_{4 } ^{ +} }}}} ion concentrations in the medium resulted in greater degree of growth inhibition.

초고온 archaeon인 Thermococcus profundus에서 매우 거대한 단백질 복합체를 분리 및 구조를 규명하였다. 거대 복합체는 93kDa단백질(P93 complex)로 구성된 homomultimer이며, 강한 내열성을 보여주고 있다. 순수 분리한 P93 complex를 SDS(최종 농도 1%)와 $85^{\circ}C$에서 12시간 항온시킨 후, SDS-PAGE와 전자현미경에서 구조적 변화를 관찰할 수 없었다. 음착색된 P93 complex의 전자현미경 사진에서 하나의 형태만을 보여주고 있으며, 구조의 규명을 위해 image processing을 하였다. 이의 구조는 3대칭 중심에 core(혹은 hole)이 뚜렷이 존재하며 이를 중심으로 단백질이 모여 있는 형태를 보여 주고 있다. 또한 P93 complex는 가장자리에서 뚜렷한 형태를 보여주지 않은 부분, 즉 flexible부분을 포함하고 있다. Gel filtration과 2차원 구조를 기초로 P93 complex는 24 homomultimer로 되어 있음을 추정하였다.

초고온 archaeon인 Thermococcus profundus에서 실린드형태의 단백질 복합체를 분리, 생화학적 특성과 구조를 규명하였다. 전자현미경과 영상처리 (image processing)를 이용한 구조 분석으로 8개의 subunit으로 이루어진 링 (ring) 형태가 두 개 겹쳐져 가운데 통로를 가지는 실린드형태로 이루어진 복합체임을 알 수 있었다. 또한 60kDa단백질(P60 complex)로 구성된 homomultimer임을 보여 주고 있다. 이 복합체는 $80^{\circ}C$ 이상에서 도 강한 ATPase의 활성을 보여주는 강한 내열성 단백질임을 알 수 있다. P60 complex는 초고온 archaeon이 높은 온도에서 적응하며 생존하는데 매우 중요한 역할을 할 것으로 추정할 수 있다.

Medium compositions for the hyperthermophilic archaeon, Thermococcus onnurineus NA1 was statistically optimized to enhance formate-driven hydrogen ($H_2$) production by using response surface methodology. From the Plackett-Burman design-based experiment, it was confirmed that among the minor components of medium such as KCl, $MgSO_4$, $NH_4Cl$, Cystein-HCl, trace elements, Fe-EDTA and $CaCl_2$, the trace elements were screened as the only positively effective components with respect to $H_2$ production. Subsequently, the optimal concentrations of the trace elements and the major components of a medium such as NaCl, yeast extract and sodium formate were determined from the five-level central composite design (CCD)-based experiment. The resulting quadratic model predicted the maximum $H_2$ production of 46.6 mmol/L in serum bottle and it was validated experimentally using the optimal medium initially supplemented with 26.70 g/L of NaCl, 9.81 g/L of sodium formate, 3.50 g/L of yeast extract and 4.59 mL/L of trace elements. From the duplicate batch cultivations in the fermentor using the optimized medium, the a maximum $H_2$ production rate up to 71.8 mmol/L/h could be obtained, which was a 65% enhanced value compared with that obtained using the control medium, showing the high efficiency of the optimized medium.

Two low-salt complex media, bactopeptone and desalted yeast extract, were used for high density cultivation of the hyperthermophilic archaeon Sulfolobus solfataricus (DSM 1617). Bactopeptone, which has low mineral ion content among various complex media, was good for cell growth in batch cultures; the maximal cell density in bactopeptone was comparable to that in yeast extract. However, cell growth was rather poor when bactopeptone was added by the fed-batch procedure. Since several vitamins are deficient in abctopeptone, the effect of vitamins on cell growth was examined. Among the vitamins tested, pyridoxine was found to improve the growth rate of S. solfataricus. To reduce the growth inhibition caused by mineral ions, yeast extract was dialyzed against distilled water and then fed-batch cultures were carried out using a fed medium containing desalted yeast extract. Although the concentrations of mineral ions in yeast extract were significantly lowered by the dialysis whether low molecular weight solutes in yest extract are crucial for cell growth, we investigated the effect of trehalose, a most abundant compatible solute in yeast extract, on the growth pattern. Cell densities were increased and the length of the lag phase was markedly shortened by the presence of trehalose, indicating that trehalose plays an important role in the growth of S. solfataricus.
