Bacillus subtilis의 Beta-1,4-glucanase 유전자와 Saccharomyces cerevisiae의 alcohol dehydrogenase isoenzyme I 유전자 (ADHI)의 promoter와 mouse $\alpha$-amylase의 분비신호를 연결하여 분비형 플라스미드를 구성하였으며 이를 산업용 알콜생산 효모인 Saccharomyces cerevisiae 54에 도입하여 형질전환시켰다. 한편 $\beta$-glucanase 유전자의 발현정도를 증대시키기 위해 CYC1 유전자의 전사종결신호를 부가한 후 역시 Saccharomyces cerevisiae 54에 도입하였다. 형질전체들은 carboxymethyl cellulose가 함유된 평판배지에서 $\beta$-glucanase를 분비하고 있음을 확인할 수 있었다. 전사종결 신호가 부가된 경우엔 전체역가가 2배 정도 증가하였다. 형질전환체들이 세포밖으로 분비한 효소역가는 전체의 60 정도였다.

To overproduce endoxylanase from a recombinant Bacillus subtilis harboring the pJHKJ4 plasmid, the effects of carbon and nitrogen sources on the cell growth and expression level of endoxylanase were investigated in the flask cultures. Among the various carbon and nitrogen sources tested, glucose and maltose as carbon source and yeast extract as nitrogen source were found to be the most effective for the cell growth and the endoxylanase expression. When the concentration of glucose was increased from 0.5% to 5%, the highest activity of extracellular endoxylanse, 166 unit/$m\ell$, was observed at 2% glucose. In case of maltose, the endoxylanase was stably produced at the level of 180 unit/$m\ell$, regardless of the concentration of maltose. The higher the concentration of yeast extract, the greater cell growth and endoxylanase expression were obtained. However, the highest endoxylanase activity per unit cell mass was observed with 1% yeast extract. With the optimized medium (2% glucose, 1% yeast extract, etc), about 630 unit/$m\ell$ of endoxylanse was expressed through the batch fermentation in a fermentor, which expression level corresponded to about 0.7 g-endoxylanase protein /$\ell$. It was also found that the plasmid was stably maintained above 70% level, and more than 90% of endoxylanase activity was detected in the extracellular medium.

Sucrose에 의한 재조합 Saccharomyces cerevisiae의 invertase 생성 양성을 이단계 배양을 통하여 관찰하였다. 포도당 배지에서 SUC2 유전자의 발현이 억제된 상태에서 발현배지의 sucrose 농도가 2$g/\ell$일 경우 invertase 최대 비역가는 10 units로 5$g/\ell$보다 40% 향상된 값을 보여주었다. 발현배지에서의 당의 농도변화와 invertase 발현은 서로 대응관계가 있음을 발견하였다. 초기에는 SUC2 유전자가 발현되어 invertase가 생성 분비되어서 배지중 sucrose를 포도당과 과당으로 분해하였다. 분해된 포도당의 농도가 2$g/\ell$ 이상이 되면 invertase 생성은 다시 억제되었다. 동시에 미생물에 생육에 의해 포도당 농도가 2$g/\ell$이하로 감소되면서 다시 invertase 생성이 유도되었다. 이러한 현사은 5$g/\ell$의 sucrose 배지에서 더욱 현저하게 관찰 할 수 있었다. 발현배지의 온도를 $35^{\circ}C$증가시켰을 경우 invertase 생성은 $30^{\circ}C$보다 약 1.7배만큼 증가하였다.

Endoxylanase와 endoglucanase 유전자가 ADH1 프로모터 하류에 따로따로 삽입된 pAGX3 플라스미드를 함유한 Saccharomyces cerevisiae에서 endoxylanase와 endoglucanase 유전자는 성공적으로 발현되었으며, YPD 배지에서의 회분배양 결과, endoxylanase는 7.91 units/ml, endoglucanase는 0.43 units/ml에 달하는 총활성을 보였다. Yeast extract와 포도당을 간헐적으로 공급하는 유가배양에서 endoxylanase와 endoglucanase의 총활성은 24.9 units/ml과 0.84 units/ml을 각각 보였으며, 이는 회분배양에서 발현된 각각 활성의 3.1배와 2배에 해당되었다. 또한, 대부분의 endoxylanase와 endoglucanase 활성은 세포밖 배지에서 측정되어, 향후 이 재조합 효모는 섬유소(cellulose)와 xylan 혼합물의 동시당화 바이오공정 개발에 활용될 가능성이 높다 하겠다.

Background: Inactivated vaccines are limited in preventing foot-and-mouth disease (FMD) due to safety problems. Recombinant virus-like particles (VLPs) are an excellent candidate for a novel vaccine for preventing FMD, given that VLPs have similar immunogenicity as natural viruses and are replication- and infection-incompetent. Objectives: The 3C protease and P1 polyprotein of type O FMD virus (FDMV) was expressed in yeast Hansenula polymorpha to generate self-resembling VLPs, and the potential of recombinant VLPs as an FMD vaccine was evaluated. Methods: BALB/c mice were immunized with recombinant purified VLPs using CpG oligodeoxynucleotide and aluminum hydroxide gel as an adjuvant. Cytokines and lymphocytes from serum and spleen were analyzed by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, enzyme-linked immunospot assay, and flow cytometry. Results: The VLPs of FMD were purified successfully from yeast protein with a diameter of approximately 25 nm. The immunization of mice showed that animals produced high levels of FMDV antibodies and a higher level of antibodies for a longer time. In addition, higher levels of interferon-γ and CD4⁺ T cells were observed in mice immunized with VLPs. Conclusions: The expression of VLPs of FMD in H. polymorpha provides a novel strategy for the generation of the FMDV vaccine.

A novel simultaneous saccharification and fermentation (SSF) process from the microcrystalline cellulose to ethanol was developed by using $\delta$-integrated recombinant cellulolytic Saccharomyces cerevisiae L2612$L2612\deltaGC$, which can utilize cellulose as carbon and energy sources. The optimum amount of enzymes needed for the efficient conversion of cellulose to ethanol at $30^{\circ}C$ was determined with commercial cellulolytic enzymes. By fed-batch cultivation, the heterologous cellulolytic enzymes were accumulated up to 42.67% of the total cellulase and 29% of the $\beta$-glucosidase needed for the efficient SSF process. When this $\delta$-integrated recombinant yeast was applied to the successive SSF step for ethanol production, 20.35 g/l of ethanol was produced after 12 h from 50 g/l of microcrystalline cellulose. By using this novel SSF process, a considerable amount of commercial enzymes was reduced.

The effect of stb locus of E. COLI IncFII plasmid NR1 on the stability of chimeric plasmids was investigated. First, we have isolated the stability locus (stb) from E. coli NR1 plasmid and then inserted into the three different vectors, pUC8, YRp17 and YEp24. By examining their stability in E. coli and yeast, we showed that the recombinant plasmids containing stb locus were resonably stable. Also, by comparing the amounts of the rDNA fragments per haploid genome with those of the plasmid fragments, we showed they copy number of recombinant plasmids was not increased. Consequently, the stb locus of E. coli IncFII plasmid NR1 stabilized the chimeric plasmids but did not affect the replication or copy number of plasmids.

Starch is an abundant resource in plant biomass, and it should be hydrolyzed enzymatically into fermentable sugars for ethanol fermentation. A genetic recombinant yeast, Saccharomyces cerevisiae GA-7458, was constructed by integrating the structural gene of both $\alpha$-amylase from Bacillus stearothermophilus and the gene (STA1) encoding glucoamylase from S. diastaticus into the chromosome of S. cerevisiae SH7458. The recombinant yeast showed active enzymatic activities of $\alpha$-amylase and glucoamylase. The productivity of ethanol fermentation from the pH-controlled batch culture (pH 5.5) was 2.6 times greater than that of the pH-uncontrolled batch culture. Moreover, in a fed-batch culture, more ethanol was produced (13.2 g/L), and the production yield was 0.38 with 2% of corn starch. Importantly, the integrated plasmids were fully maintained during ethanol fermentation.

In order to study the secretion of the human urokinase-type plasminogen activator, u-PA, from the yeast yarrowia lipolytica, three kinds of integrative expression vector were constructed. These vectors differed only in their secretion control legions, pre-, pre-dip-(dipeptide Stretch) or pre-dip-pro sequences of the alkaline extracellular protease, which were joined inflame to the human u-PA cDNA. The recombinant Y. lipolytica Strains, transformed with the expression vectors, secreted the hyperglycosylated u-PA. A fibrin plate assay of the culture supernatants showed that the hyperglycosylated u-PA proteins could catalyze fibrinolysis, and that the pre-dip sequence was the most efficient secretory signal for the secretion of the u-PA from Y. lipolyica. This result suggests that Y. lipolytica can be developed as a potential host for the production of recombinant human u-PA.
