L. edodes의 배양액 및 균사체로부터 항암작용이 있는 단백 다당류의 추출 및 정제방법에 관한 실험을 실시하였다. 단백다당류 추출에서 비이온성 계명 활성제인 2% Triton X-100 용액으로 추출할 경우 상온에서 추출하여도 통상의 10$0^{\circ}C$ 열수 추출을 통해 얻을 수 있는 것보다 수율이 높았다. 그러나 계명활성제 용액에 4N NaCl을 첨가하여 추출하면 ethanol 침전과정에서 단백다당류의 침전물을 얻을 수 없었다. 열수 추출에 있어서 추출 온도는 10$0^{\circ}C$가 효과적이고 추출 시간은 4시간 정도면 충분하였다. 열수 추출 결과 ethanol 침전 및 동결건조를 통하여 얻어진 조단백 다당류의 정제 실험에서는 alumina를 충전제로 하는 gel filtration보다 sephadex에 의한 gel filtration 또는 DEAE-cellulose, DEAE-sephadex를 이용한 ion exchange chromatography가 보다 효과적이다.

Thermostable tryptophanase was extracted from a thermophilie bacterium, strain T which was absolutely symbiotic with strain 5. The enzyme was purified 14.7 fold with 5.8% yield by chromatographies using ion exchange, gel filtration, and hydrophobic interaction columns, followed by high performance liquid chromatography on hydroxyapatite column. The purified enzyme has a molecular weight of approximately 210,000 estimated by gel filtration column chromatography, and the molecular weight of subunit was determined by SDS polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis to be 46,000, which indicates that the native enzyme is made of four homologous subunits. The tryptophanase was stable at 65o0 and the optimum temperature for the enzyme activity for 20 min reaction was 70$^{\circ}C$. The purified enzyme activity for 20 min ieaction was 70$^{\circ}C$. The purified enzyme catalyzed the degradation of L-tryptophan into indole, pyruvate and ammonia in the presence of pyridoxal phosphate. 5-Hydroxy-Ltryptophan, 5-methyl-DL-tryptophan, L-cysteine, S-methyl-L-cysteine, 5-methyl-DL-tryptophan, L-cysteine, S-methyl-Lcysteine, and L-serine were also used as substrates to form pyruvate. The amino acid composition of the tryptophanase was determined, and found to contain a high percentage of hydrophobic amino acids, especially in the proline content, which was much higher than that of Escherichia coli tryptophanase. In addition, the 35N-terminal amino acid sequence of the tryptophanase was completely different from that of E. coli tryptophanase.

A bile salt hydrolase (BSH) was purified from Lactobacillus plantarum CK 102 and its enzymatic properties were characterized. This enzyme was successfully purified using ion-exchange chromatography with Q-Excellose and hydrophobic interaction chromatography with Butyl-Excellose. The purified enzyme showed a single protein band of 37 kDa by SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, which was similar to the molecular weight of known BSHs. The amino acid sequence of GLGLPGDLSSMSR, determined by MALDI-TOF, was identical to that of BSH of L. plantarum WCFS1. Although this BSH hydrolyzed all of the six major human bile salts, glycine-conjugated bile acid was the best substrate, based on its specificity and $K_{m}$ value. Among the various substrates, the purified enzyme maximally hydrolyzed glycocholate with apparent $K_{m}$ and $V_{max}$ values of 0.5 mM and 94 nmol/min/mg, respectively. The optimal pH of the enzyme ranged from 5.8 to 6.3. This enzyme was strongly inhibited by thiol enzyme inhibitors such as iodoacetate and periodic acid.

Glycinin, one of the predominant storage proteins in soybeans, was examined as to whether it could be used as a calcium-binding mediator after chemical phosphorylation and enzymatic hydrolysis. Glycinin is composed of six subunits. One of the proglycinin subunits $(A_{la}B_{lb})$ was overexpressed in E. coli to obtain nonphosphorylated proteins with homogeneity. To investigate the enhanced calcium-binding properties of the phosphopeptides, the proglycinin was purified, phosphorylated, and hydrolyzed with trypsin. The proglycinin expressed in E. coli was purified by ammonium sulfate precipitation, ion-exchange chromatography, and cryoprecipitation. Chemical phosphorylation by sodium trimetaphosphate was performed to obtain phosphorylated proglycinin. After the phosphorylation, one-dimensional isoelectric focusing gel electroanalysis confirmed the phosphorylation of the proglycinin. The phosphorylated peptides were then hydrolyzed with trypsin, followed by a binding reaction with calcium chloride. The calcium-bound phosphopeptides were finally separated using immobilized metal $(Ca^{2+})$ chromatography. Consequently, a limited tryptic hydrolysate of the isolated phosphopeptides exhibited an enhanced calcium-binding ability, suggesting the potential of glycinin phosphopeptides as a calcium-binding mediator with greater availability.

A protease produced by Bacillus polyfermenticus SCD was purified and characterized as a new detergent material. The protease was purified from supernatant produced by B. polyfermenticus SCD, by ammonium sulfate precipitation, ion-exchange chromatography on a DEAE-Sephadex A-50, and finally gel filtration chromatography on Sephadex G-50. The molecular mass of this enzyme was 44 kDa based on SDS-PAGE. The optimum temperature and pH were $50^{\circ}C$ and pH 8.0. The ranges of its stability to the pH and temperature were 7.0 to 9.0 and under $40^{\circ}C$, respectively. The enzyme was highly stable in the presence of the surfactants like Triton X-100 (0.1%), showing a 2-fold increase in its proteolytic activity. However, the enzyme was slightly inhibited by the chelating agent EDTA (1 mM). The enzyme has a maximum activity at $50^{\circ}C$ and the activity can be increased by surfactants such as Triton X-100 and Tween 80.

To examine the possibility of biomonitoring of heavy metal removal ability and soil, a study was performed to investigate the heavy metal removal ability and metal-binding protein (MBP) as detoxification process using Oenanthe stolonifera. After O. stolonifera was exposed to individuals (cadmium, zinc) and mixture (cadmium+zinc)for 4 days, removal rate of heavy metal and pH in the treatment medium was measured. MBP was assayed by means of ion exchange column chromatography. The exposure to mixture (Cd:76.8%, Zn:75%) rather than individuals (Cd:82.9%, Zn:90.4%) showed a synergism raising the toxic effect. Initial removal rate was different for each heavy metal : in case of exposure to cadmium it was over 60% on day 1, while for zinc it was 75~90% on day 4. Throughout the experimental period, pH value of treatment medium continuously decreased, since cortex in the roots may secret organic acid to adjust and prevent toxicity of metals. The existence or MBP in the 70~80 fraction and the presence of Zn-enzyme pool was ascertained with the column chromatography. This study demonstrated a possibility that heavy utilized as a biomarker of heavy metal pollution.

Fibrinolytic and fibrinogenolytic activities of the venoms from the Korean snakes, Agkistrodon caliginosus, nosus, Agkistrodon saxatilis and Agkistrodon blomhoffi brevicaudus were compared by fibrin-plate method and polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, respectively. The venom from A. blomhoffi brevicaudus showed the highest degree of fibrin(ogen)olytic activity, and a protease with the fibrin(open)olytic activity was purified by p-amino-benzamidine affinity chromatography and DEAE ion-exchange chromatography. The purified enzyme had a molecular weight of 50,800 and a capability to degrade the B$\beta$-chain of fibrinogen preferentially to the $A\alpha$-chain, but not the ${\gamma}$-chain. Fibrinolytic activity of the purified enzyme was approximately 3.8 plasmin unit/mg protein.

In this study Carotenoprotein from Styela clava were extracted, and purified by ammonium sulfate fraction, Sephadex G- 200 gel chromatography and DEAE-cellulose ion exchange chromarography. The purified carotenoprotein from styela clava had absorption maxima of 487nm, 463nm and 280nm, and the carotenoid liberated from carotenoprotein had 478nm and 452nm with inflexion. One miligram of caroteno-protein contained 0.35 $\mu$g of carotenoid. The carotenoprotein had an approximate molecular weight of 398 kDa (gel filtration). SDS-PAGE showed only a single polypeptide chain with a molecular weight of 62.4 kDa. The amino acid composition of the carotenoprotein were mainly glutamic acid(11.48%), valine(10.75%), leucine (10.45%), aspartic acid(9.94%), while cysteine and tryptophan were not found. The carotenoprotein contained lipid as structure units. In the carotenoprotein, the major fatty acids were oleic acid, plamitoleic acid and palmiunsaturated fatty acids 33.6%, saturated fatty acids 18.6%. In addition, the levels of higher unsaturated fatty acids were high as much as 30.8% of the total fatty acids. Carotenoid was extracted from the carotenoprotein by acetone. Thin layer chromatography showed only carotenoid to be present. Its chemical reactivities and spectroscopic properties were studied and elucidated as astaxanthin.

Inhibition of the growth of human cancer cells by proteins secreted from 373-L1 cells was investigated in the present study. The growth of human cancer cells was inhibited by co-culture with 373-L1 cells under 10% FBS and DME, DME, GIT and serumless medium, respectively. The conditioned medium of cultured 373-L1 cells under serumless medium was concentrated 100-fold through an ultrafiltration cell with a 10,000 molecular weight cutoff at 4$^{\circ}C$ under positive pressure using nitrogen(373-L1 EM). 373-L1 EM inhibited the growth of HeLa, Hep G 2, KHOS-Np, A43l and MCF-7 cells. 3T3-L1 EM was purified with FPLC, DEAE-ion exchange chromatography and phenyl-sepharose chromatography. The major protein of 373-L1 EM has a molecular weight of 66,000-68,000 in SDS-PAGE analysis. The results suggest that the inhibitory activity of 373-L1 EM appears to be due to some protein(m.w.66,000-68,000) secreted by 373-L1 cells.
