Lactobacillus casei SW-M1으로부터 lactose 이용 pPLac Plasmid를 분리하였다. 이 plasmid에 lactose이용 유전자가 존재하는지를 확이하기 위하여 plasmid curing을 실시한 결과, acriflavin 8mg/ml 과 11 mg/ml EtBr를 처리한 후 , 3차 접종 배양의 경우에 curing 빈도가 가장 높았다. Lac와 plasmid가 cured 된 $Lac^{+}$strain의 당 이용능을 조사한 결고, glucose lactosidasedldydsmd은 불변이나, lactosedldydsmd만이 $Lac^{+}$strain에서 감소하였다 pPLac plasmid의 lactose 분해능은 $\beta$-galactosidase 에 의한 것이 아니고, phospho-$\beta$-galactosidase 에 의한 것으로 확인되었다. $Lac^{+}$strain의 carbohydrate가 막투과시 PTS과 관련이 있는가를 조사한 결과ㅏ lactose-PTS가 가장 활성이 높았으며, 그 다음이 galactose-PTS, glucose-PTS 로 나타났다. 그러므로 lactose는 lactose-PTS(lactose-phosphotransferase system)에 의하여 glucose와 galactose-6-phosphate로 분해됨을 알 수 있었다. Phospho-$\beta$-galactosidase의 induction 실험에서는 galactoserk 가장 높은 induction 효과를 보여 주었으며, lactose와 glucose는 높은 수준의 induction을 나타내었으며, IPTG는 induction 효과가 없었다. Glucosedh lactose 배지에서 L. casie는 diauxic growth나 phospho-$\beta$-galactosidase합성을 조사한 결과, catabolite repression을 받지 않는 것으로 나타났다.

Campylobacter jejuni에 48${\circ}C$의 열충격을 30분간 주었을 때, HSP90, HSP66, HSP60의 열충격 단백질들이 합성되었고, 이 단백질들은 각각 E. coli의 hsp87, HSP66 (DnaK), HSP58(GroEL)에 상응하는 단백질들이었다. 여러가지의 제한효소로 처리한 C. jejuni의 chromosomal DNA에 E. coli의 groEL(4.0kb)을 probe로 사용하여 Southern hybridization한 결과, 이들과 상동성을 가지는 유전자들이 있음을 확인하였다. C. jejuni의 groEL 유전자를 pWE15 cosmid를 이용하여 recombinant plasmid pLC1을 만들고, 이를 E. coli B178 groEL44 ts mutant에 형질전환시켜 E. coli LC1을 얻었다. 이 pLC1에는 groEL 유전자가 존재하는 5.7kb인 insert DNA가 포함되어 있었고, 그로부터 subcloning한 pLC101에는 groEL을 포함하는 4.0kb의 DNA가 삽입되어 있었다. 이 recombinant plasmid들이 형질전환된 E. coli LC1과 LC101 균주에서는 C. jejuni의 GroEL 단백질이 과다 생산되었다. C. jejuni의 groEL이 cloning된 E. coli LC1은 42${\circ}C$에서의 생장능력이 회복되었고, ${\lambda}$ vir phage에 대한 감수성도 회복되는 등의 chaperon 효과가 입증되었다.

농작물에 심각한 피해를 주는 phytotoxin을 생산하는 S. scabiei ATCC 49173의 분자 유전학적인 연구를 위해 대장균으로부터 S. scabiei로 plasmid DNA를 도입하는 접합 전달법을 이용한 형질전환법을 확립하였다. 본 연구를 통해 확인된 S. scabiei의 접합전달용 최적배지는 50 mM의 $MgCl_2$를 첨가한 MS배지이며 접합전달에 사용되는 DNA 수용체인 포자는 $45^{\circ}C$의 열처리와 $5{\times}10^7$이상의 plasmid DNA 공여체가 필요하다는 것을 확인하였다. 또 얻어진 접합전달체에 대하여 Southern blot hybridization과 벡터가 삽입된 염색체부분의 염기서열분석을 통해 attB site의 특성을 분석한 결과 S. scabiei 염색체의 pirin 상동체를 코드하는 ORF내에 단일위치로 존재하고 있으며 이미 밝혀진 다른 방선균유래 attB site의 염기서열에 대해 86.3%~96.1%의 상동성을 보였다.

Branched and linear polyethylenimines (PEIs) have been studied as efficient and versatile agents for gene delivery in vitro and in vivo. PEIs exist in a linear or branched topology and are available in a wide range of molecular weight (Mw). Most studies have been done using PEIs with Mw higher than 10Kd. This study was aimed to test the transfection efficiency and the cell viability following gene delivery using PEI of Mw 2Kd, a relatively lower Mw cationic polymer. We used murine interleukin-2(mIL-2) plasmid DNA complexed with branched PEI 2Kd or 25Kd, and transfected them into a myoblast muscle cell line, C2C12. The cellular uptake of mIL-2 plasmid DNA was determined using quantitative polymerase chain reaction. RNA transcript levels were studied in the myoblast cells. Our results show that PEI 2Kd was as effective as PEI 25Kd in celluar gene delivery and transfection efficiency in C2C12 cells. Moreover, MTT assay indicated that PEI 2Kd/DNA complexes did not significantly reduce the cell viability regardless of N/P ratios. These results suggest that PEI of Mw 2Kd might play a role as effective and low toxic nonviral vector systems for muscular cell lines.

For the construction of plasmid and bmNPV sarrying the FRT recognition site for the FLP recombinases, we synthesized the wild type FRT dligonucleotides. The target FRT sequences consist of three 13bp repeated DNA sequences; two repeats in a direct orientation and one inverted relative to the other two. In addition, there is an 8bp spacer region between the repeats which determune the orientation of the FRT recombination site. In order to place the FRT site both in target BmNPV genome and the transfer vector, we constructed a plasmid, FRT site both in the target BmNPv genome and the transfer vector, we constructed a plasmid, pFRT$\beta$-gal, carrying the FRT sites within the cloning sites of pSV vector and a recombinant BmNPV, vFRTPH, carrying the FRT sites at a downstream of polyhedrin promotor, respectively. In order to test the functionality of the FLP/FRT site-specific recombination system, vFRTPH, pFRT$\beta$-gal and pHsFLP DNA were co-transfected into BmN-4 cells. The resulting recombinant virus was designated a vFRT$\beta$2-gal. From construction analysis of the vFRT$\beta$2-gal with PCR technique it was concluded that the entire pFRT$\beta$-gal plasmid with $\beta$-galactosidase gene and origines of replication flanked by two functional hybrid FRT sequences. The efficiency of recombination was 8.7%, which was higher than that(2.2%) of recombination between a conventional transfer vector and the wild type BmNPV.

Bacterial strain No. P08 isolated from wastewater at the Cheongju industrial complex was found to be capable of degrading 4-chlorobenzoate under aerobic condition. P08 was identified as Comamonas sp. from its cellular fatty acid composition and 16S rDNA sequence. The fcb genes, responsible for the hydrolytic dechlorination of 4-chlorobenzoate, were cloned from the plasmid pJJl of Comamonas sp. P08. The fcb gene cluster of comamonas sp. PO8 was organized in the order fcbB-fcbA-fcbTl-fcbT2-fcbT3-fcbC. This organization of the fcb genes was very similar to that of the fcb genes carried on the chromosomal DNA of pseudomonas sp. DJ-12. However, it differed from the fcbA-fcbB -fcbC ordering of Arthrobacter sp. SU. The nucleotide sequences of the fcbABC genes of strain P08 showed 98% and 53% identities to those of Pseudomonas sp. DJ-12 and Arthrobacter sp. SU, respectively. This suggests that the fcb genes might have been derived from Pseudomonas sp. DJ-12 to form plasmid pJSl in Comamonas sp. P08, or that the fcb genes in strain DJ-12 were transposed from Comamonas sp. P08 plasmid.

Alcaligenes sp. JMP228 carrying 2,4­dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) degradative plasmid pJP4 was inoculated into natural soil, and transfer of the plasmid pJP4 to indigenous soil bacteria was investigated with and without 2,4-D amendment. Plasmid pJP4 transfer was enhanced in the soils treated with 2,4-D, compared to the soils not amended with 2,4-D. Several different transconjugants were isolated from the soils treated with 2,4-D, while no indigenous transconjugants were obtained from the unamended soils. Inoculation of the soils with both the donor Alcaligenes sp. JMP228/pJP4 and a recipient Burkholderia cepacia DBO 1 produced less diverse transconjugants than the soils inoculated with the donor alone. Repetitive extragenic palindromic-polymerase chain reaction (REP-PCR) analysis of the transconjugants exhibited seven distinct genomic DNA fingerprints. Analysis of 16S rDNA sequences indicated that the transconjugants were related to members of the genera Burkholderia and Pandoraea. Denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE) analysis of PCR-amplified 16S rRNA genes revealed that inoculation of the donor caused clear changes in the bacterial community structure of the 2,4-D­amended soils. The new 16S rRNA gene bands in the DGGE profile corresponded with the 16S rRNA genes of 2,4-D­degrading transconjugants isolated from the soil. The results indicate that introduction of the 2,4-D degradative plasmid as Alcaligenes sp. JMP228/pJP4 has a substantial impact on the bacterial community structure in the 2,4-D-amended soil.

A plasmid vector, $RSVLTR/{\beta}G2$, containing lacZ gene under the control of the RSVLTR promoter were transfected into chicken embryo fibroblasts by three different transfection methods. Calcium phosphate, lipsome and DEAE-dextran techniques were applied for transfection of chicken cells. A histochemical assay with X-gal was used as a simple method for screening transfected cells. Plasmid $RSVLTR/{\beta}G2$ was expressed proficiently in the chicken embryo fibroblast. Calcium phosphate-DNA precipitate transfection resulted in the highest efficiency for transient expression of $RSVLTR/{\beta}G2$. Transfected cells formed colonies on the 9th day of incubation indicating stable transformation of the inserted plasmid.
