Expression of the crylAcl gene of an acrystalliferous Bacillus thuringiensis strain under the control of the native or $\alpha$-amylase gene promoter was investigated. The crylAcl gene was cloned in a B. thuringiensis - E. coli shutle vector, pHT3101, undder the control of either the native promoter (pProAc) or the $\alpha$-amylase promoter from Bacillus subtilis (pAmyAc). These two recombinant plasmids were successfully expressed in B. thuringiensis subsp. kurstaki Cry B. The first transformant (ProAc/CB), harboring pProAc, expressed an about 130 kDa protein begining 24 hr after inoculations just as in the case of the wild type of B. thuringiensis subsp. kurstaki HD-73. The second pAmyAc-transformant (AmyAc/CB) began to express the gene just 6 hr after inoculation, but Western analysis showed that the activity of the $\alpha$-amylase promoter was relatively weaker than that of the native promoter. As expected, their toxicity against Plutella xylostella larvae was dependent on the amount of Cry1Acl protein expressed.

In order to secrete the Bacillus subtilis cytidine deaminase (CDase, cytidine/2'-deoxycytidine deaminase) encoded by the B. subtilis cdd gene in E. coli by the aid of signal sequences, the cdd gene was fused in-frame to either amyE or penP signal sequences and the gene expression and CDase localization were examined. For the penP signal sequence::cdd fusion, the cdd gene with 9 amino acids truncated from the 5'-terminus was fused in-frame to the signal sequence, then the $cdd^{+}$ colonies were not occurred from the minimal plate by cdd complementation. The result suggests that 9 amino acids on the $NH_2-terminal$ of CDase have an essential function in the enzyme activity. The hybrid protein obtained by fused gene amyE signal sequence::cdd structural gene gave $cdd^{+}$ phenotype and about half of the total CDase activity was found to be secreted in the periplasm of E. coli transformant JF611/pSO202. The periplasmic CDase activity of JF611 harboring pSO52 containing the intact cdd gene was considerablely lower than that of the cells harboring pSO202 carrying the hybrid cdd gene. This suggests that the CDase was secreted to the periplasm through the cytoplasmic membrane by the aid of the amyE signal sequence in the E. coli transformant.

The sprC gene encodes Streptomyces griseus protease C (SGPC), a bacterial chymotrypsin-like serine protease. Because the published data on sprC was not complete, we cloned and analyzed a new DNA fragment spanning downstream to upstream of the sprC gene from S. griseus IFO13350. The cloned 2.3-kb DNA fragment was placed on a high-copy number plasmid and introduced into Streptomyces lividans TK24. Chymotrypsin activity of the transformant was 8.5 times higher than that of the control after 3 days of cultivation and stably maintained until 9 days of cultivation, which dearly indicated that the cloned 2.3-kb fragment contained the entire sprC gene with its own promoter. When the same construct was introduced in the S. griseus IFO13350 (wild strain) and its two mutant strains in the A-factor regulatory cascade, ${\Delta}adpA$ and HO1, the chymotrypsin activity increased fivefold only in the ${\Delta}adpA$ strain. Transcriptional analysis based on RT-PCR revealed that the sprC gene is normally transcribed in both strains; however, earlier transcription was observed in the wild strain compared with the ${\Delta}adpA$ strain. A gel mobility shift assay showed that the AdpA protein did not bind to the promoter region of sprC. All these data clearly indicate that the expression of sprC is not dependent on the AdpA protein, but is distinctly regulated from other chymotrypsin genes composing an AdpA regulon. Earlier morphological differentiation was observed in S. lividans TK24, and S. griseus IFO13350 and HO1, transformed with the expression vector. The transformant of S. griseus ${\Delta}adpA$ formed markedly larger colonies. Antisense repression of sprC resulted in severe decrease of chymotrypsin activity, down to one-third of the control, and delayed morphological differentiation. All these data suggest that SGPC is related to normal morphogenesis in S. griseus.

Alkaline protease를 대량생산하는 Aspergillus oryzae를 만들기 위하여 A. oryzae의 alkaline pretense 유전자 alpA를 고발현시키는 plasmid pTAalp를 제조하고 이 plasmid로 A. oryzae M-2-3 균주를 형질전환시켰다. 16개의 형질전환체를 얻어 이들의 protease생산성을 skim milk 분해에 의한 halo 형성능에 의하여 확인하였다. 또한 protease 생산성이 증가한 형질전환체는 pTAalp가 multi-copy로 염색체 안에 integration되어 있음을 Southern blot에 의하여 확인하였고, 이들의 배양액을 polyacrylamide gel전기영동에 의하여 분석한 결과, 형질전환체 No. 14에서는 전체 분비단백질의 80-90%가 alkaline protease 임을 알 수 있었다. 간장원료 분해실험의 결과 No. 14에 의한 원료분해액은 간장 양조용 대조균에 의한 분해액보다 TN이 증가하였으며 원료분해율도 1.4-1.5배로 증가되었다.

Paenibacillus polymyxa 유래의 cycloinulooligosaccharide fructanotransferase(CFTase) 유전자(cft)를 Saccharomyces cerevisiae SEY2102 에 발현시키기 위해 대장균과 효모의 shuttle vector인 pYES 2.0(GALI) promoter)에 subcloning하였다. 구축된 pYGCFT(9.9kb) plasmid를 S. cerevisiae SEY2102에 형질전환하였고, uracil이 결핍된 SD 배지에서 선별하였다. 선별된 형질전혼체(S. cerevisiae SEY2102/pYGCFT)는 galactose 첨가에 의해 성공적으로 발현되어 cyclofructan(CF)을 생셩함을 TLC로 확인하였다. 그러나 균체외로의 효소 분비는 이루어지지 않았고 cytoplasm 보다 periplasmic space에 많이 존재하였다. 효소반응 3시간부터 CF가 생성됨을 확인하였고, 최적온도와 pH는 각각 45$^{\circ}C$와 pH 8.0로 나타났으며, pH 10.0에서도 효소활성이 안정적으로 유지되었다. Inulin 기질에 따른 반응산물 분석결과, Jerusalem artichoke와 dahlia tuber로부터 CF가 가장 효과적으로 생성되었다.

Bacillus thuringiensis subsp. morrisoni PG-14의 cryIVD 유전자를 포함하고 있는 발현벡터 pCYASK5-1을 제작하여 Synechocystis PCCC6803에 형질전환시킨 후, 학질모기(Anopheles sinensis)유충에 대한 독성을 검정하였다. Kanamycin이 포함된 BG-11배지에서 선발된 형질전환체의 cryIVD 유전자 발현은 SDS-PAGE와 West-ern blot분석으로 확인하였다. 형질전환체는 A. sinensis 유충에 대해 높은 독성을 나타내었으며, 성장은 야생주인 Synechocystis Pccc6803과 유사하였다. 또 수심에 따른 형질전환체의 분포도 조사에서 전체적으로 살충농도의 세포수로 분포함을 확인하였다. 이러한 결과들은 B. thuringiensis subsp. morrisoni PG-14의 cryIVD 유전자로 형질전환된 Synechocystis PCCC6803이 모기유충 방제에 효율적으로 이용될 수 있음을 나타내었다.

The procpb gene encoding human procarboxypeptidase B (proCPB, GeneBank access code AJ224866) was cloned and its Pichia expression plasmid, $pPIC9{\alpha}$/hproCPB (9.2 kb), was constructed, in which procpb was under the control of the AOXl promoter and connected to the downstream of the mating factor ${\alpha}$-1 ($MF{\alpha}1$) signal sequence. The plasmid was linearized by digestion with Sacl, and integrated into the genome of P. pastoris strain GS115. By culturing of Pichia transformant on methanol medium, the human proCPB was successfully expressed and secreted into the culture supernatant. Moreover, Western blot analysis of the extracellular proteins showed proCPB bands clearly at a molecular mass of 45 kDa, confirming the expression of proCPB with its right size. The CPB activity reached about 3.5 U/ml and 12.7 U/ml in the flask and fermentor batch cultures of Pichia transformant, respectively. No CPB enzyme activity was found in the intracellular fraction. When the fed-batch cultivation was performed with methanol and glycerol mixture as a feeding medium, the extracellular CPB activity was increased to 42.0 U/ml, which corresponds to a 3.3-fold higher level of CPB activity than that of batch culture. The $K_m$ and $k_{cat}$ values of recombinant human CPB enzyme for hippuryl-$_L$-Arg as a substrate were estimated to be 0.16 mM and $11.93\;sec^{-1}$, respectively.

YEp 13 plasmid에 B. amyloliquefaciens의 $\alpha$-amylase gene을 cloning시켜서 얻은 hybrid plasmid를 E. coli C 600으로 형질전환시켜서 amylase 활성을 나타내는 균주를 선별하였다. 선별된 E. coli C 600균주를 plasmid추출하여 전기영동해 본 결과 plasmid가 매우 불안정하였으며, 그중 가장 단순한 plasmid band를 지니고 있으며 amylase활성이 강한 E. coli균주를 선별하였다. 선별된 균주의 균체내에 있는 2개의 plasmid DNA를 분리하여 각각의 plasmid를 pTG 17-1, pTG 17-2로 명명하였으며 S. cerevisiae MC 16에서 형질전환이 가능한 pTG 17-2 DNA를 제한효소 EcoRI과 Pst I으로 restriction한 결과 EcoRI으로 처리한 경우는 7.3, 4.8, 2.4 kb인 3개의 분획으로 나타났으며 Pst I으로 처리한 경우는 linear로 14.5kb임을 알았으며 이로써 pTG 17-2 plasmid의 size가 약 14kb임을 알았다. 또한 E.coli균체내에서의 ampicillin sensitive로써 이 plasmid의 ampicillin resistance site가 결실되었음을 알았고 효모의 형진전환체로 부터의 $\alpha$-amylase는 균체외로 분비되지 않았고 효모균체내의 $\alpha$-amylase는 Somogyi-Nelson방법과 Agar diffusion 방법으로 확인하였다.

Cloning을 위한 host와 vector의 이용 가능성을 타진하기 위해 호알칼리성 Bacillus속 K-17을 host로, pUB110과 pBD64를 vector로 사용하여 Bacillus속 K-17의 protoplast 형질전환조건을 검토하였다. 원형질체의 형성은 200$\mu\textrm{g}$/$m\ell$의 Iysozyme 을 처리하였으며, 원형질체 형성의 최적 온도, PH및 배양시간은 각각 4$0^{\circ}C$, 7.0 및 4시간으로 나타났다. 원형질체는 DM3 재생배지에서 재생시켰으며 0.8% agar, 0.5M sodium succinate 농도에서 가장재생이 좋았다. 형질전환시 PEG의 농도는 40%(w/v) PEG 6,000 30%(v/v)가 최적으로 나타났다. 형질전환체의 특성을 조사한 결과, plasmid 안정성은 pUB110이 pBD64보다 더 안정하였으며, 최대 효소활성은 비슷하였지만 효소 분비시간은 pUB110 은 2.5일, pBD64의 경우는 3일로 Bacillus속 K-17의 2일에 비해 약간 지연되었다.
