In the present study, porcine pepsin in various pH conditions was investigated by small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) in order to detailed information on the structure and its variations with pH conditions. These analyses identified the structure of pepsin, and compared with that obtained by single crystallography. Moreover, this study found the structure' variations with changing pH conditions. All the results will be discussed with considering the conformational characteristics of pepsin in solution and further correlate to the biological and spectroscopic characteristics reported previously.

Two new azobenzene crown ether calix[4]arenes, 10 and 11, were synthesized by two pathways. In the first pathway,two ethoxy nitrobenzene groups were attached to t-butylcalix[4]arenes in a 1,3 position. Subsequent reduction ofthe nitrobenzene group s by metallic zinc in an alkaline solution afforded 10 and 11 in8% and 12%,respectively. In the second pathway,an azobenzene containing two glycolic units was prepared prior connect-ing to t-butylcalix[4]arenes. The yields from the second approach (5%, 8% for 10 and 11, respectively) were lower than those from the former approach. Single crystals of 10 suitable for X-ray crystallography was ob-tained by recrystallization in methanol.Both the X-ray structure and the 1H-NMR spectrum of 10 indicated that the stereoisomer of the azobenzene moiety was trans and the calixarene platform was in cone conformation. 1H NMR spectroscopy suggested that 10 underwent an observable cis-trans isomerization in CDCl3 under room light and upon UV irradiation with cis:trans ratios of 33:67 and 36:64,respectively. Compound 6 which was the precursor of 11showed fluxional behavior and was found to have mixed conformations ofcone and partial cone with a ratio of 47:53 at -30 $^{\circ}C.$ 1H NMR spectrum of 11 suggested that 11 was initially isolated as cis azobenzene with calix[4]arene in cone conformation and underwent conformational interconversion through calix[4]arene annulas in a similar fashion to 6 upon exposing to light. The complexation studies of 10 with picrate salts of Na+ and K+ using 1H NMR spectroscopysuggested that Na+ preferred to bind the cis form of 10 while K+ preferred to bind the trans form. The stereoisomer of the azobenzene unit in 11 changed partially from cis to trans upon complexing with K+.

A stoichiometric mixture of evaporating materials for ZnGa₂Se₄single crystal thin films was prepared from horizontal furnace. To obtain the single crystal thin films, ZnGa₂Se₄mixed crystal was deposited on thoroughly etched semi-insulating GaAs(100) substrate by the Hot Wall Epitaxy (HWE) system. The source and substrate temperatures were 610℃ and 450℃, respectively. The crystalline structure of the single crystal thin films was investigated by the photoluminescence and double crystal X-ray diffraction (DCXD). The carrier density and mobility of ZnGa₂Se₄single crystal thin films measured from Hall effect by von der Pauw method are 9.63×10/sup 17/㎤ and 296 ㎠/V·s at 293 K, respectively. From the photocurrent spectrum by illumination of perpendicular light on the c-axis of the ZnGa₂Se₄single crystal thin film, we have found that the values of spin orbit splitting △so and the crystal field splitting Δcr were 251.9meV and 183.2 meV at 10 K, respectively. From the photoluminescence measurement on th ZnGa₂Se₄single crystal thin film, we observed free excition (Ex) existing only high quality crystal and neutral bound exiciton (A°, X) having very strong peak intensity. Then, the full-width-at-half-maximum (FWHM) and binding energy of neutral acceptor bound excition were 11 meV and 24.4 meV, respectivity. By Haynes rule, an activation energy of impurity was 122 meV.

The four $C_{5}Me_{5}$ planar groups from a tetrahedron with a mean dihedral angle $70.92(9)^{\circ}$ among them and the $Ti_{4}O_{6}$ cage sits at the center of the tetrahedron. Each Ti atom in the $Ti_{4}O_{6}$ cage is bonded by three bridging oxygen atoms and coordinated by a $C_{5}Me_{5}$ ligand with a mean distance $2.067{\AA}$ from Ti atoms to the centroids of the four five-membered rings. Two oxygen atoms facing each other in $Ti_{4}O_{6}$ cage are $4.051(3){\AA}$ away in average.

Empirical force-field calculations have been applied to eight 1,6-anhydropyra-noses, the crystal structures$^{13{\sim}21}$ of which have been studied by single crystal X-ray or neutron diffraction analysis. The theoretical calculations reproduce closely the variations in conformation between $^1C_4$ and $E_0$, which are observed in the pyranose rings. The smaller conformational differences in the five-membered anhydro ring are not so well predicted. The calculated C-C bond lengths agree with those observed within 0.012${\AA}$ with one exception. The C-O bond lengths show a larger deviation, 0.027${\AA}$. The non-hydrogen atom valence angles agree within 1.9$^{\circ}$.

Cold shock proteins (Csps) are a subgroup of the cold-induced proteins on reduction of the growth temperature below the physiological temperature. They preferentially bind to single-stranded nucleic acids to translational regulation via RNA chaperoning. Csp plays important role in cold adaptations for the psychrophilic microorganism. Recently, Cold shock protein from psychrophilic bacteria, Colwellia psychrerythraea (CpCsp) has been identified. Three dimensional structures of a number of Csps from various microorganisms have been solved by NMR spectroscopy or X-ray crystallography, but structures of psychrophilic Csps were not studied yet. Therefore, cloning and purification protocols for further structural study of psychrophilic Csp have been optimized in this study. CpCsp was expressed in E. coli with pET-11a vector system and purified by ion exchange, size exclusion, and reverse phase chromatography. Expression and purification of CpCsp in M9 minimal media was carried out and $^{15}N$-labeled proteins with high purity over 90% was obtained. Further study will be carried out to investigate the tertiary structure and dynamics of CpCsp.

The title complex, $(C_3H_{12}N_2)[\{Cd(H_2O)(C_6H_5O_7)\}_2]{\cdot}6H_2O$, I, has been prepared and its structure characterized by FT-IR, EDS, elemental analysis, ICP-AES, and X-ray single crystallography. It is triclinic system, $P{\bar{1}}$ space group with a = 10.236(2), b = 11.318(2), c = $13.198(2){\AA}$, ${\alpha}=77.95(1)^{\circ}$, ${\beta}=68.10(1)^{\circ}$, ${\gamma}=78.12(1)^{\circ}$, V = $1373.5(3){\AA}^3$, Z = 2. Complex I has constituted by protonated 1,3-diaminopropane cations, citrate coordinated cadmium(II) anions, and free water molecules. The central cadmium atoms have a capped trigonal prism geometry by seven coordination with six oxygen atoms of three different citrate ligands and one water molecule. Citrate ligands are bridged to three different cadmium atoms. Each cadmium atom is linked by carboxylate and hydroxyl groups of citrate ligand to construct an one-dimensional ladder-type assembly structure. The polymeric crystal structure is stabilized by three-dimensional networks of the intermolecular O-H${\cdots}$O and N-H${\cdots}$O hydrogen-bonding interaction.
