Hemoglobin is oxygen carrier protein within erythrocyte in blood. Apoprotein of this, globin, is synthesized in the cytosol but it's cofactor, heme, is synthesized in the mitochondria. It has not been known very well how globin receives the heme from mitochondria and folds to hemoglobin. In this folding process, the initial structure of globin seems to be very important. A small volume of globin at acid pH was added rapidly into the bulk of an egg phosphatidylcholine $60\%$ liposome, containing hemins, at neutral pH according to the Rapid Dilution method. It was observed that an acid-induced unfolding structure of globin is initially needed to receive hemins from the lipid bilayer of liposomes. Also, this conclusion was confirmed with the absorption spectrum of the refolded globin separated by centrifugation.

For studying the influence of addition of Polyvinyl alcohol (PVA)-montmorillonite complex on the hydration of Portland cement the PVA-montmorillonite derivatives were prepared in advance an characterized system-of Portland cement the PVA-montmorillonite derivatives were prepared in advance and characterized systema-tically. PVA with the polymerizationdegree ranging from 500 to 2000 have been intercalated into the lamellar structure of hydrated montmorillonites which were fractionated under 2㎛ by Stock's rule. In all cases the constant basal spacing of ∼20Å was determined whatever the molecular weight of PVA used. And the carbon chain orientation of PVA in the interfoliar space has been deduced to be parallel with bilayer structure.

The chemical structure of the interface between Ag with $Li_2O$ and tri (8-hydroxyquinoline) aluminum (Alq) was investigated by using in-situ characterization of x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and ultraviolet photoelectron spectroscopy (UPS). $Li_2O$ on Ag had lower barrier height than LiF on Ag. XPS and UPS results show the interaction between $Li_2O$ and Alq leads to gap state formation in HOMO of Alq.

Copper-chromium multilayers with a nominal bilayer thickness of about 400 $\AA$ (200 $\AA$ each) were prepared by dc magnetron sputtering and the evolution of microstructure during heat treatment was investigated by using x-ray diffractometry(XRD), Auger electron spectroscopy(AES) and transmission electron microscopy(TEM). It was observed that an amorphous phase with a thickness of about 40 $\AA$ was formed at the interfaces of the as-deposited Cu/Cr multilayered film using cross-sectional TEM. At elevated temperatures, the Cu(111) reflection showed increasing intensity and decreasing line-width as a result of copper grain growth. The intermixed amorphous phase disappeared after annealing at $250^{\circ}C$ for 1 h and the multilayer structure was stable up to $400^{\circ}C$ for 1 h annealing. At $600^{\circ}C$ annealing, it was observed that the multilayer structure was completely destroyed and copper and chromium phases were fully intermixed.

Propargyl alcohol was coupled to 2,4-hexadiyne-1,6-diol (HDD) and crystallized in the process of ultraviolet irradiation-induced topochemical polymerization. The HDD polymer crystals were used as one component in the fabrication of organic photovoltaic cells, in combination with fullerene as the electron acceptor. The various structures of the produced photovoltaic cells included bilayer, trilayer, and bulk heterojunction structures. Their photovoltaic properties were analyzed in relation to crystal structure, electrochemical properties, and band structure of the HOD polydiacetylene polymers.

The spontaneous self-organization of amphiphilic molecules into complex aggregates was undoubtedly an important factor in the emergence of life on earth. We study the parameters governing the self-organization of a simple amphiphilic model system using electron cryomicroscopy of ice-embedded specimens in combination with extensive data analysis. Different stable helices can be generated reproducibly by changing the parameters controlling the molecular aggregation process. The repeating units of the helical aggregates in the micrographs can be found by multivariate statistical image analysis techniques, and these two-dimensional projection images suffice for calculating the three-dimensional density distribution of the fibers. We present a typical structure consisting of a narrow stack of compartmented bilayers twisted into a left-handed helix. Our new techniques directly elucidate the three-dimensional structure of helical assemblies, and can complement or replace diffraction-based approaches.

본 연구는 이온성 계면활성제 수용액에 대하여 음이온성 ammonium dodecyl sulfate (ADS)와 양이온성 octadecyl trimethyl ammonium chloride (OTAC)의 단일계 그리고 이들의 혼합 계면활성제 수용액에서 형성되는 혼합 마이셀과 층막구형체(vesicle)의 크기 및 구조에 대하여 작은 각 중성자 산란법을 통하여 해석하였다. 10 mM ADS와 9mM OTAC 수용액에서 형성된 단일 계면활성제 마이셀의 크기는 각각 40과 $61{\AA}$이었고, 이들의 구조는 모두 공모양이었다. 농도에 따른 구조 변화는 SANS 스펙트라로는 관찰되지 않았지만, 300 mM까지 농도가 증가할수록 마이셀 사이의 거리가 줄어들었으며 250 mM 이상에서는 거리가 일정하였다. 그러므로 이보다 큰 농도에서 구조전이가 일어날 것으로 기대된다. ADS/OTAC 혼합계의 상도해 상으로 혼합 마이셀과 층막구형체가 공존하는 영역에서 지수 법칙의 지수값이 1.6을 나타내므로 이를 확인하였다. 또한 자발적으로 형성된 층막구형체 영역은 이중막 구조 분석을 통하여 고찰하였으며, 이중막을 이루는 층막구형체의 층 간 두께는 전체 농도가 증가함에 따라 감소하였다. 이는 농도가 증가됨에 따라 같은 전하를 띠고 있는 층막구형체 사이에 반발력이 강하게 작용하여 한층막구형체의 층간 거리는 줄어들고, 이로 인해 농도가 증가할수록 층막구형체의 크기는 감소하는 것으로 해석되었다. ACS가 90 몰%인 혼합용액에서 9 mM은 상도해 상으로 혼합 마이셀과 층막구형체의 경계 영역으로 구분이 되지 않았지만, SANS 분석 결과 층막구형체 영역에 해당하여 보다 정확한 상도해를 완성할 수 있었다.

The syndecan family consists of four transmembrane heparan sulfate proteoglycans present in most cell types and each syndecan shares a common structure containing a heparan sulfate modified extracellular domain, a single transmembrane domain and a C-terminal cytoplasmic domain. To get a better understanding of the mechanism and function of syndecan-4 which is one of the syndecan family, it is crucial to investigate its three-dimensional structure. Unfortunately, it is difficult to prepare the peptide because it is membrane-bound protein that transverses the lipid bilayer of the cell membrane. Here, we optimize the expression, purification, and characterization of transmembrane, cytoplasmic and short extracellular domains of syndecan4 (syndecan-4 eTC). Syndecan-4 eTC was successfully obtained with high purity and yield from the M9 medium. The structural information of syndecan-4 eTC was investigated by MALDI-TOF mass (MS) spectrometry, circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopy, and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy. It was confirmed that syndecan-4 eTC had an ${\alpha}$-helical multimeric structure like transmembrane domain of syndecan-4 (syndecan-4 TM) in membrane environments.

수화된 코발트에 도데칸술폰이 층간 삽입된 화합물을 합성하였다. 고온 X-선 회절 데이터를 분석한 결과 화합물은 층상구조를 가짐을 확인하였다. 층 거리는 $30^{\circ}C$에서 $200^{\circ}C$로 증가함에 따라서 $19.1{\AA}$에서 $34.7{\AA}$까지 변하는 것을 확인하였다. 화합물의 온도를 증가시키면 층간 삽입된 도데칸술폰이 단일 층에서 이중 층구조로 변화가 생긴다. 따라서 온도를 변화시키면서 층상화합물의 층 거리를 조절할 수 있게 됨을 확인하였다.

비자성 천이금속인 W의 (110)표면 위에 성장한 강자성 Fe 원자층의 전자적 성질 및 자기적 성질을 국소밀도근사 범위 내의 Full Potential Linearized Augmented Plane Wave (FLAPW) 방법을 이용하여 계산하였다. 이 계산에서 W, Fe의 층간 거리는 bull값을 이용하였으며 표면이완 및 계면이완은 고려하지 않았다. 전하밀도, 스핀밀도, 자기 모멘트, 접촉 초미세장, 2차원 띠구조, 각층의 상태밀도 등의 계산결과를 제시하였다. Fe 웃층이 1층인 경우, Fe의 자기모멘트는 2.56 ${\mu}_B$로 bulk에 비해 16% 증가하였고, Fe 웃층이 2층인 경우 표면 및 계면을 이루는 Fe층의 자기 모멘트는 각각 2.90과 2.30 ${\mu}_B$로 평균 자기모멘트는 bulk에 비해 약 18% 증가한 것으로 나타났다. Fe 층수가 1층일 때 자기초미세장의 크기는 2층일 때와는 큰 차이를 보여주고 있다. 깨끗한 Fe(110)의 결과와 비교함으로써 W과의 띠혼합 효과와 격자상수 확장 효과에 대해 논의하고 실험결과의 계산결과를 비교 검토하여 보았다.
