Charcot-Marie-Tooth (CMT) disease can be divided mainly into demyelination and axonopathy based on the results of the electrophysiological study. Mitofusin 2, encoded by MFN2 gene, has a crucial role in the fusion of mitochondria, which is known to associate with CMT type 2A as one of the axonal forms. We describe a 44-year-old man with progressive weakness on bilateral legs after noticing foot drop in his early teen. When we examined him at 45 years of age, he presented atrophy on entire legs and with distal muscle weakness on limbs. The nerve conduction study revealed severely decreased amplitude on motor nerve ranging from 0.2 to 4.5 mV, while conduction velocity remained more than 30.4 m/s. The whole-exome sequencing revealed a novel variant c.2228G>T in MFN2 by efficient genetic analysis tool, MutationDistiller. This report will not only expand the mutation spectrum of CMT2A but also introduce a time-saving genetic analysis tool.

We developed a highly efficient organic photovoltaic (OPV) cell with a poly[4,8-bis(5-(2-ethylhexyl)thiophen-2-yl)benzo[1,2-b;4,5-b']dithiophene-2,6-diyl-alt-(4-(2-ethylhexyl)-3-fluorothieno[3,4-b]thiophene-)-2-carboxylate-2-6-diyl)]:[6,6]-phenyl-C71-butyric acid methyl ester active layer for harvesting lower-intensity indoor light energy to power various self-powered sensor systems that require power in the microwatt range. In order to achieve higher power conversion efficiency (PCE), we first optimized the thickness of the active layer of the OPV cell through optical simulations. Next, we fabricated an OPV cell with optimized active layer thickness. The device exhibited a PCE of 12.23%, open circuit voltage of 0.66 V, short-circuit current density of 97.7 ㎂/cm², and fill factor of 60.53%. Furthermore, the device showed a maximum power density of 45 ㎼/cm², which is suitable for powering a low-power (microwatt range) sensor system.

Effects of electron beam (EB) irradiation on the mechanical strength of Cu (conducting sheath) and Nb (diffusion barrier) of Cu/Nb/MgB₂ superconducting was investigated. Wire- and tape-type Cu/Nb/MgB₂ samples were irradiated at E-beam energy of 2.5 MeV and 5 mA and a maximum E-beam dose was 5×10¹⁷ e/m². The hardness value of Cu and Nb region was measured by the Vickers micro-hardness method. In the case of the wire sample, the hardness of Cu and Nb increased proportionally as the dose was increased up to 5×10¹⁷ e/m², whereas in the case of the tape sample, the hardness increased up to a dose of 0.5×10¹⁷ e/m², and decreased slightly 5×10¹⁷ e/m². The hardness increase of Cu and Nb is believed to be due to the decrease of the deformability of Cu and Nb due to the defects formed inside the materials by E-beam irradiation.

This paper reports the use of supplementary cementing materials (SCMs) derived from local resources, for the partial replacement of Portland cement to reduce $CO_2$ emission during cement production. Replacement of Portland clinkers up to 20 wt.% with SCMs in normal cements reduced $CO_2$ emission by 0.18 kg $CO_2$/kg. The compressive strength exceeded the standard specification for Portland cement ASTM C-150. Blended cement samples containing 20% Portland clinker replacement had compressive strengths of 37 MPa after 28 days of curing time. The microstructure evolution of blended cement at a composition of 80:20 was similar to that of the 100% Portland cement, where the structure between days 28 and 56 reached a steady state. Blended cements with compositions of 70:30 and 60:40 still showed progress of CSH plate formation and the lack of massive structure development. It is shown that the use of supplementary cementing materials could be as one of alternative ways to reduce $CO_2$ emissions during cement production.

Thin films of platinum were deposited on a $Al_{2}O_{3}/ONO(SiO_{2}-Si_{3}N_{4}-SiO_{2})/Si$-substrate with an 2-inch Pt(99.99 %) target at room temperature for 20, 30 and 60 min by DC magnetron sputtering, respectively X-ray diffract meter (XRD) was used to analyze the crystallanity of the thin films and field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM) was employed for the investigation on crystal growth. The densification and the grain growth of the sputtered films have a considerable effect on sputtering time and annealing temperatures. The resistance of the Pt thin films was decreased with increasing deposition time and sintering temperature. Pt micro heater thin film deposited for 60 min by DC magnetron sputtering on an $Al_{2}O_{3}$/ONO-Si substrate and annealed at $600^{\circ}C$ for 1 h in air is found to be a most suitable micro heater with a generation capacity of $350^{\circ}C$ temperature and 645 mW power at 5.0 V input voltage. Adherence of Pt thin film and $Al_{2}O_{3}$ substrate was also found excellent. This characteristic is in good agreement with the uniform densification and good crystallanity of the Pt film. Efforts are on progress to find the parameters further reduce the power consumption and the results will be presented as soon as possible.

The selective catalytic reduction (SCR) of $MnO_x$ with $NH_3$ is an effective method for the removal of $MnO_x$ from stationary system. The typical catalyst for this method is $V_2O_5-WO_3(MoO_3)/TiO_2$, caused by the high activity and stability. However, This catalyst is active within $300{\sim}400^{\circ}C$ and occurs the pore plugging from the deposition of ammonium sulfate salts on the catalysts surface. It needs to locate the SCR unit after the desulfurizer and electrostatic precipitator without reheating of the flue gas as well as deposition of dust on the catalyst. The manganese oxides supported on titania catalysts have attracted interest because of its high SCR activity at low temperature. The catalytic activity of $MnO_x/TiO_2$ SCR catalyst with different manganese precursors have investigated for low-temperature SCR in terms of structural, morphological, and physico-chemical analyses. The $MnO_x/TiO_2$ were prepared from three different precursors such as manganese nitrate, manganese acetate (II), and manganese acetate (III) by the sol-gel method and then it calcinated at $500^{\circ}C$ for 2 hr. The structural analysis was carried out to identify the phase transition and the change intensity of catalytic activity by various manganese precursors was analyzed by FT-IR and Raman spectroscopy. These different precursors also led to various surface Mn concentrations indicated by SEM. The Mn acetate (III) tends to be more suppressive the crystalline phase (rutile), and it has not only smaller particle size, but also better distributed than the others. It was confirmed that the catalytic activity of MA (III)-$MnO_x/TiO_2$ was the highest among them.

Two fibrinolytic enzymes from the autolysate of Lumbricus rubellus were purified in homogeneous form. Their molecular sizes were 31,000 (Enz1) and 35,000 (Enz2) Da. respectively. However, the N-Terminal amino acid sequences of Enz1 and Enz2 were exactly the same: Ile-Val-Gly-Gly-Ile-Glu-Ala-Arg-Pro-Tyr-Glu-Phe-Pro-Trp-Gln-. These results indicate that Enz1 is a shortened form of Enz2 formed during autolysis. When a synthetic substrate, Ile-Pro-Arg-pNA, was used, the catalytic activity were observed in the pH range of 5-10 and the kinetic parameters including $K_m$ (1.6 ${\mu}m$) and $V_{max}$ (40 nmol/jmin/mg) were almost identical between the two enzymes. However, the fibrinolytic activity of Enz2 was at least 1.25 times higher than that of Enz1, suggesting that the C-terminal region of Enz2 is important in fibrinolysis but not in amidolysis. Furtheimore. fibrinolytic activity of the enzymes was increased by the addition of the lipid extracted from L. rubellus in the presence of $MgCl_2$ or $CaCl_2$. The stimulatary effect of lipid on Enz2 was higher compared to Enz1.
