For many viruses, -1 ribosomal frameshifting regulate protein synthesis using an RNA pseudoknot. The integrity of pseudoknot stability and structure is the important feature for efficient frameshifting. Thus, small molecules interacting with viral RNA pseudoknots would be potential antiviral agents targeting\ulcorner frameshifting system in viruses. X-ray structure of RNA pseudoknot complexed with biotin has been reported, in which biotin is bound at the interface between the pseudoknot's stacked helices. (omitted)

Objective: This study was conducted to investigate the effects of rumen-protected biotin (RPB) on growth performance, nutrient digestibility, nitrogen utilization and plasma biochemical parameters of Liaoning cashmere goats during the cashmere fiber growing period. Methods: Sixteen 6-month-old Liaoning cashmere twin-doelings (24.8±1.20 kg) were allocated to 2 diet groups that were individually ad libitum fed 30% concentrate and 70% forage diet (dry matter [DM]) by a paired experimental design. Goats of the control group were fed the basal diet, while goats belonging to the RPB group were fed the basal diet with 10 mg RPB/d per animal. The duration of the experiment was 16 weeks with two 8-week periods. Digestibility was determined at weeks 7 and 15, and other measures were taken every four weeks. Results: Compared with the control group, the average daily gain of the RPB group increased by 10.94% (p<0.05), and the intake of neutral detergent fiber was increased (p = 0.045). There were some increasing tendencies for the intake of DM, acid detergent fiber and ether extract (p = 0.070, 0.088, and 0.070, respectively). The intake and digestibility of N tended to increase (p = 0.062 and 0.093, respectively), while the N fecal excretion percentage of N intake was decreased (p = 0.093) in the RPB compared with the control group. N retention tended to increase (p = 0.084) with the addition of adding RPB to the diet. Plasma total protein was increased (p = 0.037), whereas the urea-N concentration was decreased (p = 0.049) in the RPB diet group compared with the control diet group. The levels of propionyl-CoA carboxylase (p<0.001) and methylmalonyl-CoA (p = 0.013) were increased in the RPB group. Conclusion: Supplementation of rumen-protected biotin in the diet of cashmere goats can enhance the utilization of N and improve daily weight gain during cashmere fiber growing period.

본 연구는 우 casein을 신속, 정확하게 분석할 수 있는 특수 면역효소분석법을 개발하였다. Biotin이 연결된 casein과 peroxidase-conjugated avidin을 사용하였으며 면역화시킨 닭의 난황으로부터 추출한 항체를 이용하여 분석하였다. Sulfo-N-hydroxy succinimido biotin을 사용하여 casein에 biotin을 연결시키고 microplate에 고정한 뒤 peroxidase-conjugated avidin을 결합시켰다. 생산된 항체는 $\alpha$-와 $\beta$-casein에 특이적이었으며, 유청단백질, IgG, 우혈청 알부민과 교차반응은 면역효소분석법과 Western blot에서 나타나지 않았다. 본 분석법의 민감도는 2ng에서 20$\mu\textrm{g}$이었으며 Standard와 시료의 분석시 뚜렷한 평행곡선이 형성되었다. Intra-assay와 Inter-assay의 변이계수는 각각 5.5와 5.7%이었다. 그리고 비유 초기의 casein량을 조사한 결과 분만전 3일경부터 급격히 상승하는 것을 알 수 있었다.

청주의 주질을 향상시키기 위한 전보의 연구에서, 유용효모로서 분리된 균주에 대하여 균학적 성질을 조사하고, 일부의 사항에 대하여는 일본청주효모와 그 특성을 비교하였다. 분리효모 KP-16, KP-21 및 KP-54 균주는 모두 saccharomyces cerevisae로 동정되었고, TTC 염색성이 pink계이었다. 맥아즙 배지에서의 피막(被膜) 형성능은 KP-16 및 KP-21 균주는 약하였으나, KP-54균주는 강하였다. 당의 발효성과 탄소원의 자화성은 KP-16과 KP-21 균주는 동일하였고, KP-54 균주는 다소 달랐다. 분리효모는 모두 ${\alpha}-methyl-D-glucoside$를 발효도 자화도 하지 못하였으며, 이는 현재 사용되고 있는 일본청주효모와 다른 점 중의 하나였다. 비타민 요구성에 있어서 분리균주는 모두 biotin과 pantothenate를 요구하였으며, biotin을 요구하는 점은 일본청주효모와는 다른 특성이었다. 내알코올성은 분리균주 모두 일본청주효모 K-7및 K-9균주보다 강하였다.

This paper presents the fabrication and characterization of carbon films pyrolyzed with various photoresists for bioMEMS applications. To verify the usefulness of pyrolyzed carbon films as an electrode material in an electrochemical biosensor developed by the authors, interactions between avidin and biotin on the pyrolyzed carbon film were studied via electrochemical impedance spectroscopy based on electrostatic interactions between avidin and negatively-charged ferricyanide. The pyrolyzed carbon films were characterized using a surface profiler, a precision semiconductor parameter analyzer, a nanoindentor, scanning electron microscopy, and atomic force microscopy. Amine conjugated biotin was immobilized on the electrode using EDC/NHS as crosslinkers after $O_2$ plasma treatment to enhance functional groups on the carbon electrode pyrolyzed at $1000^{\circ}C$ with AZ9260. The detection of avidin binding with different concentrations in a range of 0.75 nM to $7.5\;{\mu}M$ to the pyrolyzed carbon electrode modified with biotin was carried out by measuring the electrochemical impedance change. The results show that avidin binds to the biotin on the electrode not by non-specific interaction but by specific interaction, and that EIS successfully detects this binding event. Pyrolyzed carbon films are a promising material for miniaturization, integration, and low-cost fabrication in electrochemical biosensors.

The performance of an immuno-analytical system can be assessed in terms of its analytical sensitivity, i.e., the detection limit of an analyte, which is determined by the amount of analyte molecules bound to the capture antibody that has been immobilized onto a solid surface. To increase the number of the binding complexes, we have investigated a site-directed immobilization of an antibody that has the ability to resolve a current problem associated with a random arrangement of the insolubilized immunoglobulin. The binding molecules were chemically reduced to produce thiol groups that were limited at the hinge region, and then, the reduced products were coupled to biotin. This biotinylated antibody was bound to a streptavidin-coated surface via the streptavidin-biotin reaction. This method can control the orientation of the antibody molecules present on a solid surface and also can significantly reduce the possibility of steric hindrance in the antigen-antibody reactions. In a two-site immunoassay, the introduction of the site-directly immobilized antibody as the capture enhanced the sensitivity of analyte detection approximately 10 times compared to that of the antibody randomly coupled to biotin. Such a novel approach would offer a protocol of antibody immobilization in order for the possibility of constructing a high performance immunochip.

For the development of functional food for hair-growth stimulation, this study has tried an in vivo and clinical test. As an in vivo test male Sprague Dawley rats and as a clinical test 27 baldheaded or loosehaired men were recruited. Before the experiment, the total hair count in 6 $\textrm{mm}^2$ of the designated area was 46.5. In four weeks and eight weeks of the functional food feeding it increased to 61.8 and 75.3, respectively. Hence the net increase was totaled at 62% in eight weeks. Also, depilation was decreased by 28%. Before the experiment, average hair loss was 65.7. In four weeks and eight weeks of the functional food feeding it decreased to 55.2 and 47.3, respectively. LDL and phospholipids were decreased by 42% and 36%, respectively during that period. However, HDL was increased by 21%. Forty percent of the subjects responded that itching of head skin was reduced and 34% responded to have reduced dandruff. No side-effects among the subjects were examined and no other blood pa-rameters were significantly affected by the diet. The results in this study suggest that biotin-rich functional food may stimulate cholesterol and lipid metabolism and blood flow leading to the growth of new hair and prevention of hair loss.
