  • Corynebacterium glutamicum에서 promoter-probe vector인 pSK1Cat을 이용해 분리된 프로모터를 함유하는 단편들 중 가장 높은 활성을 나타낸 $P_{19}$ 단편에 대한 심도 있는 분석을 수행하였다. Subcloning을 실시하여 프로모터 활성을 지닌 DNA 영역을 180 bp로 압축할 수 있었고 $(P_{180})$, 이를 C. glutamicum의 균주개량 측면에서 그 활용성을 분석하였다. C. glutamicum에서 메치오닌 생합성에 관여하는metX유전자의 메치오닌에 의한 repression을 해제시키기 위하여 metX유전자의 promoter를 $P_{180}$ promoter로 교체하였고 $(P_{180}-metX)$, $P_{180}-metX$를 C. glutamicum에 도입하여 발현되는 homoserine acetyltransferase 활성을 다양한 성장조건에서 측정하였다. MB 영양배지에서 배양하는 경 우 $P_{180}-metX$를 함유는 균주는 wild type보다 약 24배 높은 homoserine acetyltransferase 활성을 나타내었다. Tac 프로모터에 연계하는 경우 $(P_{tac}-metX)$, 약 13배의 활성 증가만이 관찰되었다. 최소배지에서 배양한 후 분석한 결과, $P_{180}-metX$에서의 발현양상은 배지에 첨가된 methionine에 의해 영향받지 앓음을 확인하였는데, 이는 $P_{180}$ 단편이 생합성 유전자의 derepression에 의한 아미노산 생산균의 개량에 효율적으로 이용될 수 있음을 의미한다. $P_{180}-metA$를 라이신 생산균에 도입하는 경우 최대 약 0.8g/l의 메치오닌이 생산됨을 확인하였다.

  • An insecticidal crystal protein gene, cryIA(c), from Bacillus thuringiensis HD-73 was integrated into the chromosome of a xanthan-producing bacterium, Xanthomonas campestris XP92. The cryIA(c) gene expression cassette was constructed that placed the gene between the trc promoter and rrnB transcriptional terminator. The $lacl^q$ gene was also included to prevent the expression of cryIA(c) gene in X campestris cells. Southem blot analysis confirmed the integration of the cryIA(c) gene expression cassette in chromosome of X campestris XP92 transconjugant. Expression of the insecticidal crystal protein was confirmed by Western blot analysis and bioassay against the larvae of Hyphantria cunea (Lepidoptera: Arctiidae) and Plutella xylostella (Lepidoptera:Plutellidae).

  • Transcription of mitochondrial DNA in the yeast S. cerevisiae depends on recognition of a consensus nonanucleotide promoter sequence by mitochondrial RNA polymerase specificity factor, which is a 43 kDa polypeptide encoded by the nuclear MTF1 gene. Mtf1p has only limited amino acid sequence homology to bacterial sigma factors, but functions in many ways like sigma in that it is required for promoter recognition and initiation of transcription. To analyze the corebinding region of Mtf1p, monoclonal antibodies to this protein were prepared. Recombinant Mtf1p overproduced in E. coli was purified to near homogeneity and used to raise monoclonal antibodies (mAbs). From fused cells screened for Mtf1p mAbs by immunodot blot analysis, 19 positive clones were initially isolated. Further analysis of positive clones by Western blotting resulted in 4 mAbs of Mtf1p.

  • 배추 유래의 cytosolic glutathione reductase 유전자 (BcGR1)의 지속적 발현과 형질전환 식물체의 oxidative stress에 대한 내성과의 관계를 분석하기 위하여, BcGR1 유전자를 CaMV 35S promoter의 하류에 연결한 다음, 담배에 형질전환하였다. PCR 및 Southern blot 분석을 통하여 BcGR1 유전자가 정상적으로 삽입된 32 계통의 T$_{0}$ 식물체를 선발하였다. Northern blot 분석 결과, 도입된 유전자가 형질 전환 식물체 내에서 항상적으로 발현된다는 것을 확인하였으며, 도입 유전자의 copy number와 발현량 사이에는 정의 상관관계를 보이지 않았다.

  • Objective: Trimethylation of histone 3 (H3) at 4th lysine N-termini (H3K4me3) in gene promoter region was the universal marker of active genes specific to cell lineage. On the contrary, coexistence of trimethylation at 27th lysine (H3K27me3) in the same loci-the bivalent H3K4m3/H3K27me3 was known to suspend the gene transcription in germ cells, and could also be inherited to the developed stem cell. In galline species, throughout example of H3K4m3 and H3K27me3 ChIP-seq analysis was still not provided. We therefore designed and demonstrated such procedures using ChIP-seq and mRNA-seq data of chicken follicular mesenchymal cells and male germ cells. Methods: Analytical workflow was designed and provided in this study. ChIP-seq and RNA-seq datasets of follicular mesenchymal cells and male germ cells were acquired and properly preprocessed. Peak calling by Model-based analysis of ChIP-seq 2 was performed to identify H3K4m3 or H3K27me3 enriched regions ($Fold-change{\geq}2$, $FDR{\leq}0.01$) in gene promoter regions. Integrative genomics viewer was utilized for cellular retinoic acid binding protein 1 (CRABP1), growth differentiation factor 10 (GDF10), and gremlin 1 (GREM1) gene explorations. Results: The acquired results indicated that follicular mesenchymal cells and germ cells shared several unique gene promoter regions enriched with H3K4me3 (5,704 peaks) and also unique regions of bivalent H3K4m3/H3K27me3 shared between all cell types and germ cells (1,909 peaks). Subsequent observation of follicular mesenchyme-specific genes-CRABP1, GDF10, and GREM1 correctly revealed vigorous transcriptions of these genes in follicular mesenchymal cells. As expected, bivalent H3K4m3/H3K27me3 pattern was manifested in gene promoter regions of germ cells, and thus suspended their transcriptions. Conclusion: According the results, an example of chicken H3K4m3/H3K27me3 ChIP-seq data analysis was successfully demonstrated in this study. Hopefully, the provided methodology should hereby be useful for galline ChIP-seq data analysis in the future.
