  • The nucleotide sequence of two hypervariable regions of the D-loop and the frequency of the 9-bp repeat in the region V of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) were investigated in the Korean population. Alignment of these sequences with the published reference revealed a unique pattern of base substitution and deletion compared with those of other races. The deletion and addition frequency of the 9-bp repeat in the region V was also distinct.

  • Bacillus anthracis(Ba) is a Gram-positive spore-forming bacterium that causes the disease anthrax. The feature of Ba is the presence of two large virulence plasmids, pXO1 and pXO2. Molecular genotyping of Ba has been difficult to the lack of polymorphic DNA marker. Ba isolated from Korea has been genotyped using various nucleotide analysis methods, such as 16s rDNA sequencing and multiple-locus variable-number tandem repeat (MLVA) analysis. We identified genotypes that represent a genetic lineage in the B1 cluster. This study emphasized the need to perform molecular genotyping when attempting to verify a strain-specific Ba.

  • Pseudorange is the pseudo distance between a GPS satellite and a GPS receiver to determine the receiver's position. The closer the distance between jammer and victim receiver is, the more effective a repeat-back jamming is. In this letter, we analyze the pseudorange difference between adjacent GPS receivers using real GPS pseudorange data to understand the effects by the repeat-back jamming.

  • After the induction of estrus by the PGFF2$\alpha$-GTH combination on the 118 repeat breeder cow during of 6-13 days of the estrus cycle, the effects of GTH, antibiotics, antibiotics-GTH combination were compared. The results of this study, the following conclusion were obtained: 1. The rate of estrus was reduced the administration of GTH before the administration of PGF2$\alpha$. 2. The rate of ovulation delayed was 24.6% in the group with the administration GTH, but 34.1% without the administration GTH. Duration of ovulation was shortened by GTH. 3. The impregnation induction by the administration of PGF2$\alpha$, PGF2$\alpha$-antibiotics, PGF2$\alpha$-GTH-antibiotics were 41.7%, 69.5%, 55.6% and 80.8% respectively injection in the uterus was more effective than the administration. Before or after the A.I., the above combination was most effective. 4. In antibiotics sensitivity test in vitro of the intravagina bacteria, 5.0%, 12.7% and 60.0% of bacteria were sensitive to Penicilline, Streptomycin and Gentamicin respectively.

  • Using in silico approaches and RACE we cloned a full length trinucleotide (CAG) repeat-containing cDNA (cag-3). The cDNA is 2478 bp long and the deduced polypeptide consists of 140 amino acids of which 73 are glutamines. The genomic sequence spans approximately 79 kb on mouse chromosome 7 and the gene is composed of four exons. Standard and real-time PCR analyses of several mouse tissues showed that the gene is exclusively expressed in the brain and is not detected in embryonic stages. Within the brain, it is expressed throughout the forebrain region with predominant expression in the hypothalamus and olfactory bulb and very low levels in the mid- and hindbrain.

  • In this paper, we consider choosing the appropriate covariance structure for analyzing repeated measures data with three repeat factors from a study of blood pressure data, which is collected from the local residents of Yangpyeong, Gyeonggi-do (2001) and fitted linear mixed models to find the significant covariates on outcome variable(Blood Pressure)

  • The cel7A sequence variation was analyzed between the wild type (Lentinula edodes KACC42378) and its cellulase activity enhanced mutant LER277. LER277 was induced by using gamma ray radiation ($^{60}Co$) at the $LD_{99}$ dose (0.94 kGy). Cloning and sequencing results showed that the cel7A coding DNA sequence (CDS) of LER277 had five nucleotide substitutions ($T{\rightarrow}C$, 201, 285 and 744 nt; $A{\rightarrow}G$, 525 nt; $C{\rightarrow}T$, 540 nt) and one hexanucleotide repeat insertion (GGCACC, within 1375-1392 nt) compared to that of the wild type. The Five nucleotide substitutions did not change the deduced amino acids and the hexanucleotide insertion elongated the GT repeat in a serine/threonine/glycine-rich linker. These results suggest that the enhancement of the cellulase activity in LER277 partly stemmed from cel7A changes by which the GT repeat of the linker is elongated.

  • This study investigated the proper dyeing conditions, fastness and functionality of cotton fabrics dyed with Perilla frutescens var. acuta extract. Repeat dyeing, combination dyeing of persimmon juice and fermentation dyeing were conducted as dyeing conditions. It was confirmed that the ΔE and the K/S value of cotton fabrics dyed with Perilla frutescens var. acuta extracts depending on repeat dyeing and combination dyeing slightly increased. Furthermore, the fastness to washing of persimmon combination dyeing and fermentation dyeing was very good. The fastness to rubbing was shown to be above grade 4 in all methods, and the fastness to light was not as good as grade 3 or lower. The persimmon juice dyeing, Perilla frutescens var. acuta extract repeat dyeing 4 times and combination fermentation dyeing showed very good antimicrobial abilities. Thereafter, additional studies are needed to improve the fastness to light and alternatives to further improve the dyeing properties.

  • Parkinson disease (PD) is becoming one of the most neurodegenerative disorder worldwide. The deposited aggregates have been connected in the pathophysiology of PD, which are degraded either by ubiquitin-proteasomal system (UPS) or autophagy-lysosomal pathway (ALP). Leucin-rich repeat kinase 2 (LRRK2), one of the neurodegenerative proteins of PD is also stringently controlled by both UPS and ALP degradation as well. However, the polyubiquitination pattern of LRRK2 aggregates is largely unknown. Here, we found that K63-linked polyubiquitinations of G2019S mutant, most familial variant for PD, is highly enhanced compared to those of wild type LRRK2 (WT). In addition, in the presence of overexpressed p62/SQSTM-1, ubiquitination of LRRK2 WT or D1994A was reduced, whereas G2019S mutant was not diminished significantly. Therefore, we propose that degradation of G2019S via UPS is more involved with K63-linked ubiquitination than K48-linked ubiquitination, and overexpressed p62/SQSTM-1 does not enhance degradative effect on G2019S variant.
