Plant biotechnologists have long dreamed of technologies to manipulate genes in plants at will. This dream has come true partly through the clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR)/Cas9 technology, which now has been used to edit genes in several important crops. However, there are many restrictions in editing a gene precisely using the CRISPR/Cas9 technology because CRISPR/Cas9 may cause deletions or additions in some regions of the target gene. Several other technologies have been developed for gene targeting and precision editing. Among these, base editors might be the most practically and efficiently used compared to others. Base editors are tools which are able to cause a transition from cytosine into thymine, or from adenine into guanine very precisely on specific sequences. Cytosine base editors basically consist of nCas9, cytosine deaminase, and uracil DNA glycosylase inhibitor (UGI). Adenine base editors consist of nCas9 and adenine deaminase. These were first developed for human cells and have since also been applied successfully to crops. Base editors have been successfully applied for productivity improvement, fortification and herbicide resistance of crops. Thus, base editor technologies start to open a new era for precision gene editing or breeding in crops and might result in revolutionary changes in crop breeding and biotechnology.

The pressure is generally lower than that of the freestream at the base of a missile body due to the energy loss by the flow separation around the edge of the base. The base pressure changes in the presence of the thrust jet due to the interaction between the base flow of the missile and the jet flow. In this study, behavior of the missile base pressure by the change of the jet exit pressure and the freestream condition is investigated using the CFD(Computational Fluid Dynamics) method. Effects of the grid type and the freestream condition are tested. The results are compared with the semi-empirical predictions and the flight test data. The CFD results agree well with the flight test data. The semi-empirical predictions overestimate the base pressure when jet thrust is strong for low freestream speed.

With the high morbidity and mortality caused by cancer, finding new and more effective anti-cancer drugs is very urgent. In current research, biotransformation plays a vital role in the research and development of cancer drugs and has obtained some achievements. In this review, we have summarized four applications as follows: to exploit novel anti-cancer drugs, to improve existing anti-cancer drugs, to broaden limited anti-cancer drug resources and to investigate correlative mechanisms. Three different groups of important anti-cancer compounds were assessed to clarify the current practical applications of biotransformation in the development of anti-cancer drugs.

This paper aims at the development of an knowledge base for an electrical fire cause diagnosis system using the entity relation database. The relation database which provides a very simple but powerful way of representing data is widely used. The system focused on database construction and cause diagnosis can diagnose the causes of electrical fires easily and efficiently. In order to store and access to the information concerned with electrical fires, the key index items which identify electrical fires uniquely are derived out. The knowledge base consists of a case base which contains information from the past fires and a rule base with rules from expertise. To implement the knowledge base, Access 2000, one of DB development tools under windows environment and Visual Basic 6.0 are used as a DB building tool. For the reasoning technique, a mixed reasoning approach of a case based inference and a rule based inference has been adopted. Knowledge-based reasoning could present the cause of a newly occurred fire to be diagnosed by searching the knowledge base for reasonable matching. The knowledge-based database has not only searching functions with multiple attributes by using the collected various information(such as fire evidence, structure, and weather of a fire scene), but also more improved diagnosis functions which can be easily wed for the electrical fire cause diagnosis system.

세 가지 다른 온도($60^{\circ}C$, $70^{\circ}C$ 그리고 $75^{\circ}C$)에서 1년 동안 복기추진제의 가속 노화 시험을 수행하였다. 추진제의 노화 특성을 평가하기 위해 고성능 액체크로마토그래피(HPLC)와 AKTS-Thermokinetics 소프트웨어를 사용하여 안정제 함량과 속도론적 분석을 수행하였다. 그 결과, 추진제의 안정제 함량은 노화 온도 및 노화 기간에 따라서 점차적으로 감소하였다. $75^{\circ}C$에서의 안정제 감소 속도는 $70^{\circ}C$와 비교하여 약 2배 정도 빠른 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 실험값들을 속도론적 SB 모델과 2단계 모델로 모사하였고, n1=1, n2=0에서 실제데이터를 가장 잘 모사하였다.

In this research, we propose a mechanism to develop an inference engine and expert systems based on relational database and SQL (structured query language). Generally, former researchers had tried to develop an expert systems based on text-oriented knowledge base and backward/forward (chaining) inference engine. In these researches, however, the speed of inference was remained as a tackling point in the development of agile expert systems. Especially, the forward inference needs more times than backward inference. In addition, the size of knowledge base, complicate knowledge expression method, expansibility of knowledge base, and hierarchies among rules are the critical limitations to develop an expert systems. To overcome the limitations in speed of inference and expansibility of knowledge base, we proposed a relational database-oriented knowledge base and forward inference engine. Therefore, our proposed mechanism could manipulate the huge size of knowledge base efficiently, and inference with the large scaled knowledge base in a short time. To this purpose, we designed and developed an SQL-based forward inference engine using relational database. In the implementation process, we also developed a prototype expert system and presented a real-world validation data set collected from medical diagnosis field.

Despite its success and wide application, base isolation system has been challenged for its passive nature, i.e., incapable of working with versatile external loadings. This is particularly exaggerated during near-source earthquakes and earthquakes with dominate low-frequency components. To address this issue, many efforts have been explored, including active base isolation system and hybrid base isolation system (with added controllable damping). Active base isolation system requires extra energy input which is not economical and the power supply may not be available during earthquakes. Although with tunable energy dissipation ability, hybrid base isolation systems are not able to alter its fundamental natural frequency to cope with varying external loadings. This paper reports an overview of new adventure with aim to develop adaptive base isolation system with controllable stiffness (thus adaptive natural frequency). With assistance of the feedback control system and the use of smart material technology, the proposed smart base isolation system is able to realize real-time decoupling of external loading and hence provides effective seismic protection against different types of earthquakes.
