  • 염기도를 달리하여 제조된 PACl에 대한 Al(III)종 분포는 염기도가 높을수록 monomeric Al(III)종은 적어지고, precipitate Al(III)종은 증가하는 것으로 나타났다. 염기도 13.6%의 경우에서는 monomeric Al(III)종이 81%, polymeric Al(III)종이 19%, precipitate Al(III)종은 0%로 monomeric Al(III)종이 주종을 이루고 있었다. 염기도 13.6%의 경우에서 재안정화 없이 80% 정도의 탁도제거 효율을 유지하고 있었으며, $UV_{254}$ 제거효율이 향상되는 것은 낮은 응집 pH 범위에서 유기물 응집효과가 우수하게 나타나기 때문으로 판단된다. 그리고 13.6% 염기도를 가진 PACl이 T-P 제거효율 및 $PO_{4}-P$의 제거효율이 가장 우수한 것으로 나타났으며 이는 높은 monomeric Al 성분에 기인하리라 판단된다.

  • The structural stability of brain pyrydoxine-5'-phosphate (PNP) oxidase and the catalytic properties of the monomeric species were investigated. The unfolding of brain pyridoxine-5'-phosphate (PNP) oxidase by guanidine hydrochloride (GuHCl) was monitored by means of fluorescence and circular dichroism spectroscopy Reversible dissociation of the dimeric enzyme into subunits was attained by the addition of 2 M GuHCl. The perturbation of the secondary structure under the denaturation condition resulted in the release of the cofactor FMN. Separation of the processes of refolding and reassociation of the monomeric species was achieved by the immobilization method. Dimeric PNP oxidase was immobilized by the covalent attachment to Affi-gel 15 without any significant lass of its catalytic activity. Matrix-bound monomeric species were obtained from the reversible refolding processes. The matrix bound-monomer was found to be catalytically active, possessing only a slightly decreased specific activity when compared to the refolded dimeric enzyme. In addition, limited chymotrypsin digestion of the oxidase yields two fragments of 12 and 161 kDa with a concomitant increase of catalytic activity The catalytically active fragment was isolated by ion exchange chromatography and analyzed for association of two subunits using the FPLC gel filtration analysis. The retention time indicated that the catalytic fragment of 16 kDa behaves as a compact monomer. Taken together, these results are consistent with the hypothesis that the native quaternary structure of PNP oxidase is not a prerequisite for catalytic function, but it could play a role in the regulation.

  • 염기도에 따라 제조된 PACl 응집제에 함유된 Al 가수분해종의 분석결과, 염기도 증가에 따라 단분자성 Al종이 감소하고 고분자성 Al종은 증가하였으며, 염기도 2.2에서 가장 많은 고분자성 Al종을 함유하고 있었다. 단분자성 또는 저분자성 Al 가수분해종을 주로 함유하고 있는 alum과 r=0인 PACl에서 인의 제거효율이 가장 높은 것으로 나타나, 효율적인 인의 제거를 위해서는 단분자성이나 저분자성 Al 종을 많이 함유한 응집제가 더 효과적이라고 판단된다.

  • The intramolecular fundamental vibrations of $CH_3CN$ trapped in solid argon matrix have been reinvestigated by means of FT-IR spectroscopy in the spectral range of 4000-500 $cm^{-1}$. By employing a quantum detector, infrared spectra could be obtained at matrix to solute ratio of 10000, allowing the clarification of the peaks due to monomeric species more clearly. Temperature controlled diffusion was initiated to identify the dimeric and polymeric species in terms of difference spectra. The assignments of monomeric and dimeric species are found, in general, to agree with the earlier work performed at higher concentration (Ar/$CH_3CN$ = 1500) using a dispersive spectrometer. Nonetheless the difficulty of minute differences between the earlier infrared and Raman spectroscopic results could be resolved. Moreover, the previously unnotified peaks due to polymeric species have been identified.

  • Chrysanthemum stunt viroid (CSVd), a noncoding infectious RNA molecule, causes seriously economic losses of chrysanthemum for 3 or 4 years after its first infection. Monomeric cDNA clones of CSVd isolate SK1 (CSVd-SK1) were constructed in the plasmids pGEM-T easy vector and pUC19 vector. Linear positive-sense transcripts synthesized in vitro from the full-length monomeric cDNA clones of CSVd-SK1 could infect systemically tomato seedlings and chrysanthemum plants, suggesting that the linear CSVd RNA transcribed from the cDNA clones could be replicated as efficiently as circular CSVd in host species. However, direct inoculation of plasmid cDNA clones containing full-length monomeric cDNA of CSVd-SK1 failed to infect tomato and chrysanthemum and linear negative-sense transcripts from the plasmid DNAs were not infectious in the two plant species. The cDNA sequences of progeny viroid in systemically infected tomato and chrysanthemum showed a few substitutions at a specific nucleotide position, but there were no deletions and insertions in the sequences of the CSVd progeny from tomato and chrysanthemum plants.

  • 응집공정에서 교반조건과 응집제 주입농도에 따른 알루미늄 가수분해종 변화에 대한 실험결과 다음과 같은 결론을 얻을 수가 있었다. 알루미늄 표준용액을 이용하여 모노머성 알루미늄과 페론 반응을 살펴본 결과 반응초기에 급격한 반응률을 보이며 반응시간 3분 정도에 평형에 도달함을 알 수 있었다. 순수의 경우 교반시간에 따른 영향은 거의 나타나지 않고 있으며 거의 일정한 반응률을 보이고 있었다. 상수원수의 경우 입자상 물질과 유기물의 존재함에 따라 응집제 주입시 수중에서 형성되는 알루미늄 가수분해종이 입자상 물질 및 유기물과 우선적으로 반응하기 때문에 형성되는 알루미늄 가수분해 종에 대한 반응률이 교반시간에 따라 다르게 나타났다. 응집제 주입량이 증가할수록 페론과 반응율이 빠르게 일어나나 일정한 시간이 경과한 후에 반응율을 살펴보면 응집제 주입량이 증가할수록 반응이 느리게 나타났다. 순수의 경우 교반시간에 따른 Ka 값은 교반시간이 증가할수록 Ka 값은 감소함을 알 수 있으며 응집제 주입량의 영향은 크게 나타나지 않고 있다. 그러나 Kb의 경우 응집제 주입량이 증가할수록 반응속도 상수값이 낮아지는 경향을 보이고 있으며, 마찬가지로 교반시간이 증가할수록 Kb 값은 감소함을 알 수 있다. 상수원수를 사용한 경우 순수와 마찬가지로 교반시간에 따른 Ka, Kb값 은 교반시간이 증가할수록 감소하였다. 그러나 응집제 주입량이 증가할수록 Ka 값은 감소하였다.

  • Heteropolysaccharides isolated from liquid cultures of nine Tremella species contained 0.3 to 1.2% protein, 2.7 to 5% ash, 0.9 to 3.4% acetyl groups, 76.5 to 84.2% carbohydrates and trace amounts of starch. The polysaccharides in aqueous solution were slightly acidic (pH 5.1 to 5.6). They consisted of the following monomeric sugars: fucose, ribose, xylose, arabinose, mannose, galactose, glucose and glucuronic acid. The backbones of the polysaccharide structures consisted of $\alpha$-(1$\rightarrow$3)-links while the side chains were $\beta$-linked.

  • We prepared 3-(1-hydroxyethyl)-bacteriopyrochlorophy11-a (3) possessing magnesium atom and phytyl ester from modification of natural bacteriochlorophyll(BChl)-a. A dichloromethane solution of (3$^1$R) and (3$^1$S)-3 was diluted with 100~1000 fold volume of cyclohexane to give new species absorbing near-infrared lights. The resulting Q, maximum of (3$^1$R)-3 was 860 nm and red-shifted by 2150 $cm^{-1}$ / from the monomeric. In the nonpolar organic solvent, epimeric (3$^1$S)-3 showed a 1ess red-shifted peak at 798 nm as well as a residual monomeric band. Such visible spectra indicated that 3 diastereose1ectively aggregated in cyclohexane to afford oligomers possessing a simi1ar supramolecular structure with chlorosomal aggregates of natural BChl-d, 7,8-dehydro-form of 3.

  • Transthyretin (TTR) is an indispensable transporter protein of thyroxine and a retinol molecule in humans. TTR has a stable homo-tetrameric structure in its native state, while upon dissociation into monomers, it becomes aggregation-prone and can form an amyloid fibril. Although the amyloidogenic propensity of TTR has been known and investigated since the late 1990s, the structural information regarding TTR's amyloidogenic species is still elusive. Here, we employed high-pressure nuclear magnetic resonance (HP-NMR) approaches on the monomeric variant of TTR (TTR[F87M/L110M]; M-TTR) and observed that it experiences a two-step transition in response to the pressurized condition. Our study demonstrated that M-TTR in an ambient condition has heterogeneous structural features, which is likely related to the amyloidogenic propensity of TTR.

  • A new analytical procedure for the measurement of monomeric isocyanates and total isocyanate group in workplaces has been investigated. The method described herd involves derivatization of the isocyanate sample upon collection with the reagent 9-anthracenylmethyl 1-piperazinecarboxylate (PAC). Laboratory investigations have demonstrated that excess PAC reagent can be satisfactorily removed from PAC-derivatized monomeric isocyanates-a requirement for the success f the analytical procedure. After removal of excess PAC reagent, the PAC derivatives of butyl isocyanate, phenyl isocyanate, HDI, MDI, and TDI were reacted with sodium thiomethoxide to convert them all to 9-anthracenylmethyl methyl sulfide (AMMS). Total isocyanate group was determined by HPLC analysis and quantification of the single AMMS peak. This circumvents many of the disadvantages associated with current HPLC methods. There were no longer problems associated with quantifying late-eluting peaks and analysis times were very short. A single detector was used for quantification because a standard of the analyte existed and the retention time could be determined. Because all species were converted to a single analyte, the problem of variability of response factors among different species was averted. Finally, there were no complex chromatograms to interpret. Monomers of other individual species were measured by analysis of the sample before the individual species were converted to AMMS. The favorable performance of PAC warrants its further study as a reagent for the determination of total isocyanate group in air.
