A fast and matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization-mass spectrometry compatible protein staining method in one- and two-dimensional sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis is described. It is based on the counterion dye staining method that employs oppositely charged two dyes, Zincon and Ethyl Violet to form an ion-pair complex. It is safe to use since the methanol used previously in staining solution was replaced with ethanol, which is not toxic. The protocol including fixing, staining and quick washing steps can be completed in 1 to 1.5 h depending upon gel thickness. (omitted)

Environmentally benign protein staining method in sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) using both an acidic dye, zincon (ZC) and a basic dye. ethyl violet (EV) is described. It is based on a counter ion-dye staining technique that employs oppositely charged two dyes to form an ion-pair complex. The selective binding of the free dye molecules to proteins in an acidic solution produces bluish violet colored bands. It is a rapid procedure, involving only fixin and staining steps that are completed in 45 min. (omitted)

검정곰팡이(Aspergillus niger)의 동조적(同調的) 분화(分化)를 시행(施行)하면서 acid-phenol 용성(溶性)인 세포단백질(細包蛋白質)을 추출(抽出)하여 포자형성(胞子形成) 전후(前後)의 단백상(蛋白像)의 변화(變化)를 polyacrylamide gel 전기영동법(電氣泳動法)으로 추구(追究)하였다. 결과(結果)에서 1종(種)의 단백질(蛋白質)(분자량(分子量) 약(約) 27,000 정도(程度))이 포자형성기(胞子形成期)에 신생(新生)함을 알았다. 포자(胞子)의 발아시(發芽時)에는 18개의 단백질(蛋白質)밴드가 있으며 포자형성시(胞子形成時)에는 19개가 있었다. Amido black 색소(色素)의 염색도(染色度)는 분화시기(分化時期)에 따라서 각(各) 밴드마다 각각 많이 달랐다.

In vitro analyses of type I signal peptidase activities require protein precursors as substrates. Usually, these pre-proteins are expressed in vitro and cleavage of the signal sequence is followed by SDS polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis coupled with autoradiography. Radioactive amino acids have to be incorporated in the expressed protein, since the amount of the in vitro expressed protein is usually very low and processing of the signal peptide cannot be followed by SDS polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis alone. Here we describe a rapid and simple method to express large amounts of a protein precursor in E. coli. We have analyzed the effect of ionophors as well as of azide on the accumulation of expressed protein precursors. Azide blocks the function of SecA and the ionophors dissipate the electrochemical gradient across the cytoplasmic membrane of E. coli. Addition of azide ions resulted in the formation of inclusion bodies, highly enriched with pre-apo-plastocyanine. Plastocyanine is a soluble copper protein, which can be found in the periplasmic space of cyanobacteria as well as in the thylakoid lumen of cyanobacteria and chloroplasts, and the pre-protein contains a cleavable signal sequence at its N-terminus. After purification of cyanobacterial pre-apo-plastocyanine, its signal sequence can be cleaved off by the E. coli signal peptidase, and protein processing was followed on Coomassie stained SDS polyacrylamide gels. We are optimistic that the presented method can be further developed and applied.

락토페린 결합단백질(Lactoferrin-binding proteins, LBP)은 젖소유방염 원인균인 Streptococcus uberis의 막단백질로서 그 특성에 관해서는 잘 규명되어 있지 않지만, 특히 최근에는 스트렙토코커스성 유방염의 독성인자로서 중요시되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 S. uberis 네 가지 균주를 대상으로 LBP를 보다 효율적으로 추출하기 위하여 mutanolysin 및 sodium dodecyl sulfate(SDS)를 이용한 두 가지 다른 추출 방법을 사용하였다. 추출된 세균단백질을 SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoreis(SDS-PAGE)로 전기영동을 하였고, 겔을 니트로셀룰로스 막으로 이동시켰다. Rabbit anti-bovine lactoferrin 항체와 HRP-conjugated donkey anti-rabbit IgG 항체를 사용하여 LBP를 검출하였다. 이러한 웨스턴 블롯팅 분석을 통해 SDS 추출법이 mutanolysin 추출법에 비해 보다 효율적으로 110 kDa 및 112 kDa의 LBP를 추출할 수 있음을 증명하였다.

폴리아크릴 아마이드겔(polyacrylamide gel; 이하 PAAG)은 중국, 동유럽 등에서 유방 확대술에 이용되던 물질이었으나, 다양한 부작용을 일으키는 것으로 밝혀져 현재는 사용이 금지된 물질이다. 그러나 위에서 언급된 국가의 여성들이 다른 국가로 이주하게 되면서, 우리나라에서도 PAAG를 이용한 유방 확대술을 시행한 환자들을 만나게 되었다. 이를 시행한 경우, 매우 다양한 영상의학적 소견을 보이며, 이로 인해 악성 종양이나 다른 진단과의 감별이 어렵기 때문에 정확한 진단 및 치료 계획을 세우기 위해 다양한 영상의학적 소견에 대해 숙지하는 것이 필요하다. 현재까지 한국에서의 PAAG 유방 확대술에 의한 부작용과 관련된 영상의학적 소견에 대해 보고된 바가 적기 때문에, 이에 PAAG 유방 확대술을 시행한 네 개의 증례 통해 다양한 영상의학적 진단 도구를 통한 영상의학적 소견에 대하여 보고하고자 한다.

표고버섯(Lentinula edodes)의 동위효소 양상을 표고 연구의 기초 연구의 일환으로 실시하였다. 균사체의 Tris-HCl 완충액에 용해되는 세포내 효소를 nondenaturing polyacrylamide gel 전기영동 법으로 분리후, peroxidase, esterase, superoxide dismutase, acid phosphatase, alkaline phosphatase, alcohol dehydrogenase, ${\alpha}-amylase$ 효소 활성을 측정하였다. 표고는 peroxidase, esterase, superoxide dismutase, acid phosphatase 활성이 검출되었으며, 본 연구에서 사용한 방법으로 alkaline phosphatase, alcohol dehydrogenase, ${\alpha}-amylase$ 효소 활성은 검출되지 않았다. 표고버섯의 peroxidase, esterase band는 배양 기간에 따라 큰 차이가 없이 안정하였으며, 동위효소는 표고의 유전적 연구 및 원형질체 융합 후 융합체의 특성 연구에 중요하다.

The presence of sialoglycoproteins (SGPs) in the membranes from goat (Capra aegagrus hircus), buffalo (Bubalus bubalis bubalis) and pig (Sus scrofa domestica) erythrocytes was investigated by partial purification with a chloroform-methanol extraction method followed by Sodium dodecyl sulphate - Polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis in comparison to human (Homo sapiens) erythrocytes. The results show that mammalian erythrocytes possess clear differences in the SGPs numbers and molecular weights although all animals studied in this experiment are from the same class i.e. mammalia. The SGPs number in human, goat, buffalo and pig are four (PAS-1 to PAS-4), ten (PAS-GI to PAS-GX), seven (PAS-BI to PAS-BVII) and four (PAS-PI to PAS-IV) respectively as indicated by staining the polyacrylamide gel with sialoglycoprotein-specific Periodic acid-Schiff's (PAS) stain. The new SGPs could be observed only after the partial purification of membrane fractions named as PAS-HI with molecular weight (Mr) 190 kDa and PAS-HII 150 kDa in human, PAS-BIA in buffalo and PAS-PIA and PAS-PIVA in pig. The gels were also stained with Coomassie brilliant blue (CBB) and Silver stain to check the contamination of other membrane proteins in the purified fractions. The quantitative distribution of SGPs was also determined by densitometry. Present study indicates that there are some basic differences in mammalian erythrocyte membrane SGPs, especially with respect to their number and molecular weights indicating major structural variations.

In earlier studies, the genes encoding Escherichia coli thioredoxin and Corynebacterium nephridii thioredoxin C-3 were fused via a common restriction site in the nucleotide sequence coding for the active site of the proteins to generate two chimeric thioredoxins, designated E-C3 (N to C-terminal) and C3-E. The hybrid thioredoxins were overexpressed in E. coli from the cloned chimeric thioredoxin genes by a T7 promoter/polymerase system. To investigate the structure-function relationship of thioredoxin, we purified the E-C3 hybrid thioredoxin through ammonium sulfate fractionation, DEAE-cellulose chromatography, and Sephadex G-50 gel filtration. Its purity was examined on SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and the molecular weight of the purified E-C3 hybrid thioredoxin was estimated to be 12,000. On native polyacrylamide gels, the purified E-C3 hybrid thioredoxin shows a much lower mobility than E. coli thioredoxin. E-C3 hybrid thioredoxin exhibits a 40-fold lower catalytic efficiency with E. coli thioredoxin reductase than E. coli thioredoxin. It was shown to catalyze the reduction of insulin disulfide by dithiothreitol. The purified E-C3 hybrid thioredoxin was also characterized in other aspects.

The biological interpretation of two-dimensional (2D) gel electrophoresis experiments is a key step toward understanding the functions of biological systems. We here present a web-based integrated database, called 2DSpotDB, for the management of proteome data derived from several pathogens. The 2DSpotDB was established as a part of the management of a pathogen proteome project at the Korea National Institute of Health. The goals of the 2DSpotDB implementation are to store and define important pathogen genes, retrieve information obtained by 2D polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and mass spectrometry, and create an integrated system to provide pathogen proteome information for biological scientists. This database currently contains 14 gels and information on 387 protein spots, among which 329 proteins were identified and annotated.
