현재 바이오 분야에서 분리에 대한 수요가 급증함에 따라, 투과율 및 결합능 측면에서 높은 성능을 띠는 막크로마토그래피가 수지 크로마토그래피의 대체 분리 공정으로 부상하고 있다. 실증을 기반으로 하여 막 소재가 결정되는 기존 분리막 공정과 달리, 막크로마토그래피의 경우 분리하고자 하는 목표 물질에 적합한 분리 메커니즘 이해 그리고 이를 기반한 공정 설계가 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 생특이성을 활용하여 선택적으로 거대 분자를 포집하는 친화성 작용, 전하를 활용하여 생분자와 결합하는 이온 교환 작용 그리고 소수성을 활용하여 생분자와 결합하는 소수성 작용과 같은 막크로마토그래피 주요 분리 메커니즘들에 대해 다루고자 한다. 또한 본 논문에서는 단계적 측면에서 또는 소재 측면에 막크로마토그래피 기술설계 시 고려해야할 변인들에 대해서 다루고자 한다.

Porous SiC ceramics were prepared by using recycled SiC sludge, which is an industrial waste generated from solar cell industry. Polycarbosilane derivatives, such as polycarbosilane (PCS), polyphenylcarbosilane (PPCS) and hydridopolycarbosilane (HPCS) were used as binding agents for the fabrication of porous SiC ceramics at $1800^{\circ}C$ under Ar atmosphere. The effects of the various binding agents having different C/Si ratios were discussed on the sintering and porosity of the SiC ceramics. The prepared porous SiC ceramics were characterized by X-ray Diffraction (XRD) and Field-Emission Scanning Electron Microscope (FE-SEM). Thermal conductivity and porosity of SiC ceramics were measured at room temperature, and they were 56.7W/mK and 29.8%, respectively.

Crown ether is one of well-known host molecules and able to selectively sequester metal cation. We employed M06-2X density functional theory with IEFPCM and SMD continuum solvation models to study selectivity of dibenzo-18-crown-6-ether (DB18C6) for alkaline earth dications, $Ba^{2+}$, $Sr^{2+}$, $Ca^{2+}$, and $Mg^{2+}$ in the gas phase and in aqueous solution. $Mg^{2+}$ showed predominantly strong binding affinity in the gas phase because of strong polarization of CO bonds by cation. In aqueous solution, binding free energy differences became smaller among these dications. However, $Mg^{2+}$ had the best binding, being incompatible with experimental observations in aqueous solution. The enthalpies of the dication exchange reaction between DB18C6 and water cluster molecules were computed as another estimation of selectivity in aqueous solution. These results also demonstrated that $Mg^{2+}$ bound to DB18C6 better than $Ba^{2+}$. We speculated that the species determining selectivity in water could be 2:1 complexes of two DB18C6s and one dication.

Single nucleotide polymorphisms located at microRNA (miRNA)-binding sites are likely to affect the expression of miRNA targets and may contribute to the susceptibility of humans to common diseases. Here 335 candidate lung cancer-related inflammatory genes were selected according to the existing literature and database. We identified putative miRNA-binding sites of 149 genes by specialised algorithms and screened SNPs in the 3'UTRs of these genes. By calculating binding free energy, we sorted 269 SNPs on the basis of the possibility of prediction. The proposed approach could help to easy the identification of functionally relevant SNPs and minimize the workflow and the costs.

Luteinizing Hormone Releasing Hormone(LHRH) is a decapeptide neurotransmitter known to be regulated by metal ions in the hyperthalamus. Zn-binding LHRH complex was systhesized, and zinc-LHRH complex was studied to understand what kinds of structural modifications would be critical in the LHRH releasing mechanism. Both nonexchangeable and exchangeable $^1H-NMR$ signal assignments were accomplished by pH-dependent and COSY NMR experiments. In addition, $^1H-NMR$ chemical shift changes of a-proton and peptide NH NMR signals at different pH condition, and $^1H-NMR$ signal differences between metal free and metallo-LHRH complex was monitored. NMR signals exhibit that primary metal-binding sites are nitrogens donor of imidazole ring and Arg, and peptide oxygen of Pro-His in the sequence. Structure obtained in this study has a cyclic conformation which is similar to that of energy minimized, and exhibits a specific a-helical turn with residue numbers $(2{\sim}7)$ out of 10 amino acids.

Zeolite NaA의 ${\alpha}$ cage에 있어서의 수화에너지와 그 위치를 결정하였다. Na(1)과 Na(2)사이의 site selectivity를 에너지 계산으로부터 결정하였는데 Na(1)이 Na(2)보다 선택성이 있는 것을 알 수 있었다. ${\alpha}$-Cage에 수화된 물들은 일그러진 정 12면체를 형성함을 알 수 있었다. Water(1), Water(2), Water(3)의 평균수화에너지는 각각 -29.847, -25.344, -15.888kcal/mole이다. 이 에너지 계산으로부터 얻어진 수화된 물들의 산소원자의 위치는 X선값과 잘 일치함을 보여준다. 또 수화된 정도에 따른 수화에너지의 그래프를 얻었다. 이 결과는 실험으로부터 얻어진 differential heat of sorption curve와 잘 일치함을 보여준다. ${\alpha}$ Cage 속에서의 유전상수는 3.5가 적합함을 알 수 있었다.

대표적인 경량금속 중의 하나인 알루미늄 폼재의 연구동향을 기계적인 측면에서 고찰하여 보았다. 특히 기공(pore)을 가진 알루미늄재료는 난연성, 감쇠특성, 에너지흡수 성능 등 여러 측면에서 기존의 폴리머 폼재보다 우수한 기계적 성능을 가지고 있고, 더욱이 재활용이 가능하다는 면에서 환경보호에 관심이 집중되고 있는 현 시점에서 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 폼재의 일반적 특성, 에너지 흡수 및 소음흡수 특성에 대해 살펴보고 폼재가 적용된 사례들에 대한 분석을 통해 향후 폼재와 외곽 구조재의 접합문제 등에 대한 제언을 하였다.

[ $LaFeO_3$ ] powders were synthesized using a method involving solution combustion, and the surface properties of these powders were examined by x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. As the amount of fuel increased during the synthesis, the $LaFeO_3$ powders became amorphous with a large plate-like shape. It was found that the O 1s spectra were composed of two types of photoelectrons by deconvolutioning the spectra. Photoelectrons with higher binding energy come from adsorbed oxygen ($O^-$) whereas those with lower energy come from lattice oxygen ($O^{2-}$). The ratio of adsorbed and lattice oxygen increased as the ratio of the fuel and nitrate (${\Phi}$) increased. The binding energy of both types of oxygen increased as ${\Phi}$ increased due to the formation of carbonates.

Collagen plays a vital role in the maintenance of structure and function of a human body. It has been widely applied in various fields including biomedical, cosmeceutical, food, pharmaceutical and tissue engineering. In the present study, the docking behaviour of type I collagen with 15 different ligands namely hydroxymethylfurfural, methylglyoxal, methylsyringate, O-methoxyacetophenone, 3-phenyllactic acid, 4-hydroxybenzoic acid, kojic acid, lumichrome, galangin, artoindonesianin F, caffeic acid, 4-coumaric acid, origanol A, thymoquinone and quercetin was evaluated along with their putative binding sites using Discovery Studio Version 3.1. Docking studies and binding free energy calculations revealed that origanol A has maximum interaction energy (-40.48 kcal/mol) and quercetin with the least interaction energy (-15.44 kcal/mol) as compared to the other investigated ligands. Three ligands which are galangin, methylsyringate and origanol A were shown to interact with Asp21 amino acid residue of chain B (type I collagen). Therefore, it is strongly suggested that the outcomes from the present study might provide new insight in understanding these 15 ligands as potential type I collagen modulators for the prevention of collagen associate disorders.

Hydrogen polyoxide, $H_2O_n-H_2O_m$(n=1-4, m=1-4) 이중합체(dimer)의 분자 구조 변화에 따른 수소결합(H-bonding) 효과를 순 이론적(ab initio) 방법과 밀도 범함수 이론(DFT)으로 계산하였다. 분자 구조는 B3LYP, CAM-B3LYP, MP2의 양자역학적 방법들을 사용하여 최적화하였으며, 진동주파수를 계산하여 최저에너지(true local minimum) 구조인 것을 확인하였다. 보다 정확한 수소결합 에너지(${\Delta}E$) 계산을 위하여 CCSD(T) 이론수준에서 한 점(single-point) 에너지 계산을 하였으며, 영점 진동에너지(ZPVE) 보정과 바탕집합 중첩에러(BSSE) 보정을 하였다. CCSD(T)/cc-pVTZ 이론 수준에서 $H_2O_4-H_2O_3$이 8.18 kcal/mol로 가장 강한 결합을 나타내었으며, 물 이중합체($H_2O-H_2O$)는 3.00 kcal/mol로 가장 약한 결합에너지를 나타내었다.
