Polysaccharide from Sanguisorba officinalis was separated and fractionated using DEAE-Sephadex ion-exchange chromatography and Sephacry HR-200 gel filtration chromatography. One of the fraction(Fr. II) was sulfated and its anticoagulant activity was tested in vitro. Sulfation could increase the clotting time 50 times compared to unsulfated one. Fr. II was hydrolyzed and its composition was analyzed by conjugation with 7-amino-1, 3-naphthalene disulfonic acid using HPLC and electrophoresis. Arabinose and galactose were mainly composed at the ratio of 4 : 1. In addition, xylose and rhamnose were also found.

Membrane-bound alcohol dehydrogenase(ADH) was purified to homogeneity from the acetic acid producing bacteria, Acetobacter sp. KM. The enzyme was solubilized and extracted with Triton X-100 and purified using the Mono-Q ion exchange chromatography and Superose 12 gel filtration chromatography. The enzyme was purified to 12-fold with a yield of 30%. The molecular weight of the purified enzyme was to be 335 KDa. SDS-PAGE of the enzyme showed two subunits with molecular weights of 79 KDa and 49 KDa. It indicated that the enzyme consisted of three subunits of the 79 KDa and two subunits of the 49 KDa. The purified .ADH preferentially oxidized straight chain aliphatic alcohol except methanol. Formaldehyde, acetaldehyde and glutaraldehyde were also oxidized. The apparent Km for ethanol was 1.04 mM and the optimum pH and temperature were 5.0∼6.0 and 32$^{\circ}C$, respectively. V2O5 and divalent cation such as ZnCl2 and NiCl2 inhibited enzymatic activity.

Two types of the thioltransferase (also called glutaredoxin) have been previously detected in the cytosolic extract of Schizosaccharomyces pombe, a fission yeast. Previously, the one with a smaller molecular mass (14kDa) was purified and characterized. In the present study, the second thioltransferase was purified. The purification procedure included ammonium sulfate fractionation (40-80%), Sephadex G-200 gel filtration, DEAE-cellulose ion-exchange chromatography, Sephadex G-50 gel filtration, and glutathione-agarose affinity chromatography. The purified enzyme showed a single band on SDS-PAGE, and its molecular mass was determined to be 23 kDa. It utilizes various compounds as substrates, including 2-hydroxyethyl disulfide. Interestingly, we found that the purified thioltransferase also contains significant glutathione S-transferase activity.

Soybean protein consists of two major components $\beta$-conglycinin and glycinin which together consti-tute 70% of the total seed storage protein at maturity. $\beta$-Conglycinin is trimeric glycoprotein and for-med by the assembly of various combinations of three subunits $\alpha$,$\alpha$' and $\beta$ which have molecular weig-hts of 69,000, 72,000 and 42,000, respectively. Recently $\beta$-conglycinin was identified as powerful LDL lip-oprotein receptor activation hypercholesterolemia and major allergenic proteins. To investigate these reasons we constructed an expression system of cDNA encoding $\alpha$-subunit of $\beta$-conglycinin in Escherichia coli and purified the expressed protein. The pro-$\beta$-conglycinin synthesized in Escherichia coli BL 21 (DE3)comprised approximately 15% of the total bacterial proteins and the expressed protein are formed sol-uble and trimer such as native protein in Escherichia coli cells. The highly expressed protein was purified to homogeneity by salt precipitation with 20~40 % ammonium sulfate ion-exchange chromatography with Q-sepharose and hydrophobic column chromatography with Butyltoyopearl.

콩나물 줄기로부터 추출, 정제한 peroxidase는 glucose oxidase와 함께 guaiacol을 기질로 사용하여 포도당의 분석에 사용되었다. peroxidase는 DEAE-Sephacel ion exchange column chromatography를 통해 얻은 분획이 조효소액에 비해 specific activity가 10.8배 증가되었고 수율은 11.3%였다. 정제된 peroxidase와 glucose oxidase를 이용한 포도당 분석의 최적 pH는 5.5였고 최적온도는 $40^{\circ}C$로 나타났으며 포도당 양의 증가에 따라 효소활성은 증가되었으며 반응시간과의 관계에서도 직선을 보여 주었다. 그리고 L-cysteine과 dithiothreitol과 같은 환원제는 포도당 분석에 이용되는 glucose oxidase와 콩나물 peroxidase의 활성을 저해하는 것으로 나타났다.

Role of enterotoxin from Salmonella in pathogenesis is not know. Enterotoxin gene from Salmonella typhimurium(stn) encodes a 29kDa toxin that has no homology to any other known enterotoxins. Expression of stn is enthanced upon contact with epithelial cell but not all strains having the stn gene express Stn, Based on PCR analysis, we found that all 36 clinical strains of Salmonella isolated in Korea tested carried the stn gene. To understand the trgulation of the stn transcription, the expression of stn was studies in vitro. RNA polymerase was purified by polymin P fraction-ation, DNA-agarose affinity chromatography, and Mono-Q ion exchange chromatography from Salmonella. The expression of stn was inhibited by cAMP·CRP complex by about 50%.

A $\beta$-xylosidase was purified from the culture of Trichoderma sp. SY. The ten-day-old culture filtrate was concentrated, followed by ion-exchange chromatography and gel filtration chromatography. As a result, $\beta$-xylosidase was finally purified about 53-fold and appeared as a single band by SDS-PAGE. The optimum pH and temperature were 5.0 and $55^{\circ}C$, respectively, and the molecular weight about 80 kDa. The purified $\beta$-xylosidase was found to be inhibited by various metal ions but not inhibited by xylose.

The inulinase producing microorganism was isolated from soil and tentatively identified as Arthrobacter protophormiae/ramosus. Inulinase was pruified by ethanol precipitation, DEAE-Sephadex ion exchange chromatography and Sephadex gel filtration chromatography. The molecular weight of the purified enzyme was 34 kDa. The specific activity, yield and purity were 31.5 Unit/mg, 19.5% and 18.5 fold, respectively. Optimal pH and temperature for reaction of the purified inulinase were 8.5 and $55^{\circ}C$, respectively. The enzyme was stable at pH 7.5, below$ 55^{\circ}C$, and the activity was stimulated Mg2+.

An ascorbic acid phosphorylating enzyme, which catalyzes the formation of ascorbic acid-2-phosphate from ascorbic acid and pyrophosphate, was purified 32.7-folds to homogeneity from a cell-free extract of Cellulomonas sp. AP-7. The combination of DEAE- Sephacel ion exchange chromatography and Sephacryl S-200 get filtration was used for their purification. The molecular weight of the native protein was estimated to be 96.lkDa on high performance gel filtration chromatography. The SDS-PAGE analysis indicated that the protein consisted of four identical subunits of 24.6 kDa. The purified enzyme showed the optimal tempeature of 40$\circ$C and optimal pH of 4.5. The Km for ascorbic acid and pyrophosphate were 119 mM and 11.9 mM, respectively. The addition of 5,5'-dithiobis-(2-nitrobenzoic acid) into the reaction mixture resulted in the reduction of the enzyme activity at 51%. The enzyme also had a phosphatase activity at weakly acidic pH and the Km for ascorbic acid-2-phosphate in phosphatase activity was 7.9 mM.
