The Fos-Jun heterodimers are part of the regulatory network of gene expression and nuclear proteins encoded by proto-oncogenes. The activation of Fos-Jun is important in the transmission of the tumor-promoting signal from the extracellular environment to the nuclear transcription mechanism. To search for the inhibitors of the Fos-Jun DNA complex formation, several natural products were screened and water-soluble paeoniflorin reduced the binding activity of the Fos-Jun heterodimer. This active compound was purified by silica gel column chromatography and HPLC. The electrophoresis mobility shift assay and reverse-phase HPLC test showed that paeoniflorin reduced the AP-l function. The cytotoxic effect of paeoniflorin was observed in HL-60. These results indicate that paeoniflorin blocks the Fos-Jun heterodimer-binding site of the AP-l DNA and it also has cytotoxic effects on human leukemia cell lines.

Pseudomonas sp. SW1 grew and produced biosurfactants on 3% hexadecane as the energy and carbon source. As a result of biosurfactant synthesis, the surface tension of the medium was reduced from 72 dyne/cm to 30 dyne/cm. The properties of biosurfactants that were purified from Pseudomonas sp. SW1 were investigated. The purification procedure included acid precipitation from culture supernatant, silica gel G60 column chromatography, and Sephadex G-150 gel filtration. The biosurfactants were separated into two different types, viz., types I and II. Biosurfactant type Isignificantly reduced the surface tension of water from 72 to 27 dyne/cm at concentration levels above 30 mg/l. The surface tension of water was reduced to a minimum of approximately 30 dyne/cm by biosurfactant type II at concentration levels over 80 mg/l. The biosurfactants were effective in a wide range of pHs, at NaCl concentrations of up to 4%, at $CaCl_2$ concentration up to 100 mM, and at temperatures up to $200^{\circ}C$ for 8 h.

Dental caries is one of the most common oral diseases in the world. Glucosyltransferase (Gtase) of Streptococcus mutans (S. mutans) plays an important role in the develo pment of dental caries. For the purpose to develop anti- caries, we examined the effect of metabolites isolated from Streptomyces sp. M-20 on Gtase and the growth of S. mutans. Streptomyces sp. M-20 isolated from Mongolian soil showed 95~96% sequence homology with that of Streptomyces lin- colnensis. The metabolites of Streptomyces sp. M-20 were partially purified by extraction with ethyl acetate, silica gel column chromatography and preparative TLC. Partially purified metabolite, red colored component (MR-20) in ethyl acetate fraction showed potent antibacterial activitiy against S. mutans and inhibitory activity against Gtase purified from S. mutans, while another isolated yellow component (MY-20) showed no activity against S. mutans. The inhibitory activity of MR-20 against Gtase was confirmed by activity staining on SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The concentration of MR-20 for 50% inhibition $(IC_{50})$ against Gtase activity was $60{\mu}g/ml$. These results suggest that MR-20 can be developed for antibacterial agent and anticaries.

본 연구는 산돌배나무 잎에서 추출한 분획물의 항암 및 항균효과를 조사하여 화장품소재로 적용 가능성을 확인하기 위하여 수행하였다. 산돌배나무 잎을 채취하여 건조시킨 후 분쇄하여 60% acetone-$H_{2}O$(6:4, v/v)로 추출하고 아세톤 가용부를 분획하여 동결건조 시켰다. 아세톤 및 물 가용부를 Sephadex LH-20으로 충진한 칼럼에서 MeOH을 용출용매로 사용하여 칼럼크로마토그래피를 실시하고 또한 MeOH를 전개용매로 사용한 MIC-gel을 이용했다. 단리된 화합물들은 silica-gel TLC로 확인하였다. 항암효과는 마우스 피부암 세포(B16F10)를 이용한 MTT assay로 측정했다. 산돌배나무 잎으로부터 얻어진 분획물의 암세포 생장 저해율은 80% 이상의 저해률을 보였다. 항균활성 실험에서 산돌배나무 잎의 분획물은 그람양성균인 Staphylococcus aureus, Staphylococcus epidermidis에 대하여 0.25 mg/disc에서 1.3 cm, 2 cm의 생육 저해환을 나타내었다. 그람음성균인 Escherichia coli 에 대하여 0.5 mg/disc에서 각 분획물들은 1.1 cm~1.5 cm의 생육 저해환을 나타내었다. 이상의 결과로 미루어 보아 산돌배나무 잎의 아세톤 분획물은 항암 및 항균효과를 가진 천연소재임을 확인할 수 있었다.

The Acinetobacter sp. BE-254 isolated from soil sources produced a bioemulsifier in the medium supplemented with n-hexadecane. This bioemulsifier was purified by the procedures of fractionation (ammonium sulfate and chilled acetone), extraction by hexane, and column chromatography on silica gel 60. The results from various color reactions indicated that the bioemulsifier was a glycolipid. The purified emulsifier was very stable at pHs ranging from 4 to 10 and under heat treatment at $100^{\circ}C$ for 30 min. Emulsification activity was also hardly influenced by pH. The critical micelle concentration (CMC) and surface tension at the point ($\gamma_{cmc}$) of the bioemulsifier were approximately 35 mg/l and 30 mN/m, respectively. The bioemulsifier showed a fairly good emulsification activity and stability in comparison with other commercial emulsifiers in the basic formula composed of emulsifier, oil, and water.

In this paper, the effects of the film tinckness, pre-treatment and testing load on. the tribological characteristics have been studied. During the "Ring on-Disk" testing period silica-gel was used to remove the effect of humidity. As a result, increasing the film thickness revealed prolonged wear life, in the case or reasl the testing loads the dynamic friction coefficient was decreased gradually but in regarding the wear life, an intermideate contact pressure (4kgf/mm${2}$) revealed the maximum value. In regarding the surface protuberance friction an intermediate value of area fraction (60%) revealed maximum wear life. In this paper, the qualitative model in regarding the variation of the friction coefficient andworn depth was presented.presented.

The effect of manufacturing and packaging conditions on the stability of effervescent tablets has been studied. Mixtures of sodium bicarbonate and tartaric acid were compressed at tabletting forces of 3,6, and 9 ton force. Tablets were more than simple physical mixture but the effect of tabletting force has not been found in this force range. "Curing" the tablet by heating it to $90^{\circ}C$ was effective on increasing the stability and the silica gel in the aluminium pouch stabilized the system. The equipment measuring the carbon dioxide pressure in this experiment was very useful in evaluation of the effervescent tablets.t tablets.

A high-performance liquid chromatographic method for the determination of ${\beta}$-sitosterol in the unsaponifiable fraction of Zea mays L. and its related drug preparations using a cholesterol as an internal standard was investigated. They were saponified with 20% methanolic KOH solution. Phytosterols in the reaction mixture were extracted with diethyl ether and separated on silica gel TLC plate with n-hexane-diethyl ether(40:60) as the solvent and then were scraped off. They were separated by reversed phase high perfomance liquid chromatography on Inertsil ODS-2 column with detection at 205nm. Cholesterol and ${\beta}$-sitosterol were resolved from interferences by adjusting the acetonitrile content in the MeOH-tetrahydrofuran-$H_2O$ eluent. The detection limit of ${\beta$-sitosterol was 0.43${\mu}$g.

A strain of Actinomycetes producing cathepis B inhibitor was isolated from soil and identified as Streptomyces misakiensis. The product of S. misakiensis inhibited effectively cathepsis B proteinases as well as trypsin and papain. The cathepsin B inhibitor were largely produced with incubation for 4 days. The S. misakiensis was the most growth with incubation for 5 days. The cathepsin B inhibitor was isolated from the extraction of both with ethanol, ethanol and chlorofrom, and following several column chromatography such as sephadex G-15, silica gel 60 and sephadex LH-20 chromatography. The moleculer weight of purfied inhibitor was 138 dalton.
