This study explores the interaction between the production of indole-3-acetic acid (IAA), a typical phytohormone auxin and the role of IAA biosynthetic pathways in each IAA producing rhizobacterial strain. The bacterial strains were isolated from rhizosphere of wild plants and identified as Acinetobacter guillouiae SW5, Bacillus thuringiensis SW17, Rhodococcus equi SW9, and Lysinibacillus fusiformis SW13. A. guillouiae SW5 exhibited the highest production of IAA using tryptophan-dependent pathways among the 4 strains. When indole-3-acetamide (IAM) was added, Rhodococcus equi SW9 showed the highest IAA production of $3824{\mu}g/mg$ protein using amidase activity. A. guillouiae SW5 also showed the highest production of IAA using two pathways with indole-3-acetonitrile (IAN), and its nitrile hydratase activity might be higher than nitrilase. B. thuringiensis SW17 showed the lowest IAA production, and most of IAA might be produced by the amidase activity, although the nitrilase activity was the highest among 4 strains. The roles of nitrile converting enzymes were relatively similar in IAA synthesis by Lysinibacillus fusiformis SW13. Tryptophan-independent pathway of IAA production was utilized by only A. guillouiae SW5.

This experiment was carried out to understand the effect of pre-sowing seed treatment by GA$_3$ and IAA on flowering and characteristics of yield component in peanuts. Peanut seed was treated by soaking in 10, 50, 100ppm of GA$_3$ solution, and 50, 100, 200ppm of IAA solution. Treatments of GA$_3$ and IAA resulted 7-5 days earlier emergence and 11-17days shorter of the flowering date compared with the untreated control. By soaking treatments with IAA in 100ppm and GA$_3$ in 100ppm, accumulated flowers were increased at early growing stage of 30 days after flowering compared with untreated control. By soaking treatments with IAA in 100ppm and GA$_3$ in 100ppm, main stem length, branch length and internode of main stem showed to flourish at investigation from early growing stage to 3 days before harvesting.

Little is known about the regulation of IAA level in plants under low temperature. On exposing 6-day-old etiolated pea(Pisum sativum L. var. Sparkle) seedlings grown at $25^{\circ}$ to $5^{\circ}$ for 3 days, free IAA level decreased from 17.6 to 4.9 ng/g fresh weight(that is, from 68 to 10 pmol/shoot) and total IAA level from 113.2 to 60.8 ng/g FW. The level of free tryptophan, precusor of IAA, also decreased from 583 to 414 nmol/g FW and that of free phenylalanine and tyrosine, products of shikimic acid pathway along with tryptophan, decreased from 3,168 to 2,327 nmol/g FW. Thus low temperature was found to down-regulate the level of endogenous IAA, in part, by reducing tryptophan biosynthesis in etiolated pea shoots.

Auxin response factor (ARF) and Aux/IAA transcriptional repressor family proteins play a major role in auxin's signalling process. Using the GALAXY protein modelling programs, monomer, dimer and oligomer structures of Aux/IAA17 and ARF5 protein were predicted based on the known experimental structures. By analysing the proposed complex structures, key interacting residues on binding site could be determined, and further suggestions for experimental studies were made.

An auxin-producing bacterium Yangsong-1 was isolated from a button mushroom bed in Chung cheongnam-do. The strain Yangsong-1 was classified as a novel strain of Arthrobacter enclensis based on a chemotaxonomic and phylogenetic analysis. The isolated A. enclensis Yangsong-1 was confirmed to produce indole-3-acetic acid (IAA), which is one of the auxin hormones. When the concentration of IAA was assessed by HPLC quantity analysis, the maximum concentration of IAA, $152.903mg\;L^{-1}$, was detected from the culture broth incubated in R2A medium containing 0.2% L-tryptophan for 48 h at $35^{\circ}C$. A negative relationship between IAA production and pH was estimated to show that the increase in IAA caused pH acidification of the culture. The effect of the supplement on L-tryptophan, a known precursor of IAA production, appeared to be at maximal production at 0.2% concentration and was rather reduced at concentration above 0.4%. To investigate the growth-promoting effects on the crops, the culture broth of A. enclensis Yangsong-1 was placed in water cultures and seed pots of mung beans and lettuce. In consequence, the adventitious root induction and root growth of mung beans and lettuce were 1.5 and 1.9 times higher, respectively, than those of the control.

The plant hormone auxin is involved in all stages of plant development. Aux/IAAs are the transcriptional repressors that bind to the Auxin Response Factors (ARFs) to regulate the gene expression upon auxin release. Aux/IAA have highly conserved C-terminal domains (domains III-IV) that mediate both homotypic and heterotypic interactions between Aux/IAA and ARF family proteins. Recent studies revealed that the conserved domains III-IV share a common ${\beta}$-grasp fold that oligomerizes in a front-to-back manner. In particular, Aux/IAA contains a mobile insert helix in the domain III-IV, whereas ARFs do not. Here, we investigated the dynamics of the insert helix using paramagnetic NMR spectroscopy. The insert helix exhibited fast motions in the ps-ns time scale from $^{15}N$ relaxation data, but the amplitude of the motion is likely limited to the local neighborhood. Our result suggests that the motion of the helix may have functional implications in protein-protein interactions for transcriptional regulations.

This study was carried out to realize the effect of gibberllic acid$(GA_3)$, 1-naphthaleneacetic acid(NAA) and indole-3-acetic acid(IAA) on the biosynthesis of vitamin C. The relation between carbohydrate metabolism and vitamin C production in soybean sprouts was also investigated. Growth, vitamin C content, protein, galactonolactone dehydrogenase(GLD), ribulose diphosphate carboxylase(RuDpCO) and RNA level in the plastid and cytoplasm were determined. The effects of protein and respiratory inhibitors on the growth and vitamin C production were also examined. The most favourable growth of soybean sprouts was observed at the level of NAA $10^{-8}M,\;IAA10^{-6}M\;and\;GA_3\;10^{-5}M$ in the single treatment, respectively, and also favourable at levels of $GA_3\;10^{-5}M+NAA\;10^{-9}M\;and\;GA_3\;10^{-5}M+IAA\;10^{-9}M$ in the case of mixed treatment. The excellent growth was observed at the level IAA $10^{-6}M$ among all the single and mixed treatments. When the soybean sprouts were treated with NAA $10^{-8}M,\;IAA\;10^{-6}M\;GA_3\;10^{-5}M,\;GA_3\;10^{-8}M+IAA\;10^{-6}M,\;and\;GA_3\;10^{-5}M+IAA\;10^{-9}M$, the maximum growth rate was observed at the level of IAA $10^{-6}M$ and the conten of vitamin C was 24.26mg% which was 1.6 times higher than that of the control. RuDpCO was inhibited by the chloramphenicol at the concentration that did not inhibit the growth but the activities of NADP-GDH, GLD and vitamin C content were not affected. These results showed that the biosynthesis of viamin C had nothing to do with the activity of chloroplastic RNA but with cytoplasm. The highest vitamin C content was found at the the level of IAA $10^{-6}M$, where the GLD activity increased up 1.8 times of the control. The concentration of IAA $10^{-6}M$ promoted the biosynthesis of RNa and protein both in chloroplast and cytoplasm, especially in the cytoplasm. Thus it suggeted that IAA affected vitamin C biosynthesis by regulating RNA level in the cytoplasm. 2,4-Dinitrophenol as an uncoupler of oxidative phosphorylation did not inhibit the vitamin C biosynthesis, however, all of the respiratory inhibitors severely inhibited the growth and vitamin C biosynthesis.

IaaS is well known as a very cost effective computing service which enables required infrastructures to be rented on demand without ownership of real hardwares. It is very suitable for price sensitive services due to pay-per-use style. Operators of such services would want to adjust utilization policy quickly by estimating costs for cloud infrastructures as soon as possible. However, swift response is not possible due to that cloud service providers provide a dozen or so hours delayed billing information. Our work proposes a realtime IaaS cost estimation model based on usages monitored by virtual machine instance. We operate PC laboratory service on a public cloud during full semester to validate our suggested model. From that experiment, an averaged disparity between estimation and actual cost is less than 5.2%.

The effects of IAA $(10^{-3}M)\;an;GA_3\;(2{\times}10^{-8}\;M)$ on the biosynthesis of phospholipids and their fatty acid compositions in chloroplast isolated from Chlorella ellipsidea were analyzed. Growth ratio and the levels of total lipids and phospholipids in whole cell system and chloroplast treated with phytohormones were higher than those of control, and when treated with GAl. phosphatidylcholine content was predominantly higher than that of control. It was showed that in whole cell system the fatty acid utilized for biosynthesis of phopholipids was 27.43% for palmitic acid in control, while that was 20.25% for linolenic acid in treatment with 1M. In treatment with $GA_3$, 23.17% for linolenic acid was used in phospholipid formation. The major fatty acid in the chloroplst system was analyzed to be 35.67% for palmitic acid in control and in treatment with 1M, 24.91% for linolenic acid was used in phospholipid formation, while in treatment with $GA_3$, major fatty acid of phospholipids was 22.80% for linoleic acid.c acid.
