For enhancement of cis,cis-muconate productivity from benzoate, catechol 1,2-dioxygenase (C12O) which catalyzes the rate-limiting step (catechol conversion to cis,cis-muconate) was cloned and expressed in recombinant Pseudomonas putida BCM114. At higher benzoate concentrations (more than 15 mM), cis,cis-muconate productivity gradually decreased and unconverted catechol was accumulated up to 10 mM in the cae of wild-type P. putida BM014, whereas cis,cis-muconate productivity continuously increased and catechol was completely transformed to cis,cis-muconate for P. putida BCM114. Specific C12O activity of P. putida BCM114 was about three times higher than that of P. putida BM014, and productivity was enhanced more than two times.

Pseudomonas sp. S-47 is capable of degrading catechol and 4-chlorocatechol via the meta-cleavage pathway. XyITE products catalyze the dioxygenation of the aromatics. The sylT of the strain S-47 is located just upstream of the xylE gene. XylT of the strain S-47 is located just upstream of the xylE gene. XyIT is typical chloroplast-type ferredoxin, which is characterized by 4 cystein residues that are located at positions 41, 46, 49, and 81. The chloroplast-type ferredoxin of Pseudomonas sp. S-47 exhibited a 98% identity with that of P. putida mt-2(TOL plasmid) in the amino acid sequence, but only about a 40 to 60% identity with the corresponding enzymes from other organisms. We constructed two recombinant plasmids (pRES1 containing xylTE and pRES101 containing xylE without xylT) in order to examine the function of XyIT for the reactivation of the catechol 2,3-dioxygenase (XyIE) that is oxidized with hydrogen peroxide was recovered in the catechol 2,3-dioxygenase (C23O) activity about 4 mimutes after incubation, but the pRES101 showed no recovery. That means that the typical chloroplast-type ferredoxin (XyIT) of Pseudomonas sp. S-47 is involved in the reactivation of the oxidized C23O in the dioxygenolytic cleavage of aromatic compounds.

New series of catechol ether type derivatives 5, 6 have been synthesized and applied to biological tests. Even though it is ap preliminary data, some of our target molecules show the promising result against PDE IV inhibition. SAR and biological studies with studies with synthetic compounds will be discussed in detail.

Catechol and caffeine were simultaneously analyzed with a bismuth-immobilized carbon nanotube paste electrode (BPE) using square wave (SW) stripping voltammetry. Optimum analytical conditions were determined. Simultaneous working ranges of 100-1,500 $mgL^{-1}$ for caffeine and 5-75 $mgL^{-1}$ for catechol were obtained. In the separated cell systems, a working range of 0.1-2.1 $mgL^{-1}$ catechol with a correlation coefficient of 0.9935, and a working range of 10-210 $mgL^{-1}$ caffeine with a correlation coefficient of 0.9921 were obtained. A detection limit (S/N) of 0.15 $mgL^{-1}$ (7.7 ${\times}$ $10^{-7}$ M) and a detection limit of 0.02 $mgL^{-1}$ (1.82 ${\times}$ $10^{-7}$ M), respectively, manifested for catechol and caffeine. It was found that three macro-type electrode systems could be implanted in fish and rat neuro cells. For both ions, the ion currents were observed. The physiological impulse conditions and the neuronal thinking current were also obtained.

A strain able to grow up m-toluate minimal medium has been isolated after selective enrichment and given the name T81X, which was later identified as pseudomonase putida according to its morphological and biochemical characteristics. After treatment with plasmied specific curing agent, mitomycin C, followed by replica plating on m-toluate and xylene minimal agar plate, T81Xstrain has been shown to harbour a curable plasmid relating to the m-toluate and xylene metabolism. Spontaneous curing frquency of this plasmid was also greatly enhanced by growing on benzoate minimal medium. After then, it was also xylene metabogrowing on benzoate minimal medium. After then, it was found to be conjugally nontransmissible. From the comparative investigation of catechol 1,2-oxygenase and catechol 2,3-oxygenase activities in wild type and cured strain on various growth substrate, it appeared that T81X strain has both of these two enzymes while cured strain has catechol 1,2-oxygenase only. Growing on m-toluate minimal medium T81X strain should carry the genetic information necessary for coding the catechol 1,2-oxygense induced by m-toluate or benzoate, on that curable plasmid.

The binding abilities of two multidentate tripodal amine catechol ligands, cis,cis-1,3,5-tris[(2,3-dihydroxybenzylamino) aminomethyl]cyclohexane (TMACHCAT, $L^1)\;and\;N^1,N^3,N^5$-tris(2-(2,3-dihydroxybenzylamino) ethyl)cyclohexane-1,3,5-tricarboxamide (CYCOENCAT, $L^2$) with Ga(III) and In(III) have been investigated by potentiometric and spectrophotometric methods in an aqueous medium of 0.1 M KCl at 25 ${\pm}\;1\;{^{\circ}C}.$ The ligands $L^1\;and\;L^2$ formed various monomeric species $MLH_3,\;MLH_2$, MLH and ML (M = $Ga^{+3}\;and\;In^{+3}$) and showed potential to form strong encapsulated tris(catechol) type complexes. The coordination modes, binding ability and selectivity of the ligands towards Ga(III) and In(III) have been discussed with the help of experimental evidences, and supported with molecular modeling calculations.

$^{13}C-NMR$ behaviors of phenolic compounds such as phenol, catechol, pyrogallol, resorcine, phoroglucine and hydroquinone were studied. From the study on the effects of OH-substitution on benzene and its dervatives it was found that the additivity rule can be applied to the ortho-and para-effect but not to the meta-effect for the OH-function. The empirically calculated chemical shifts regarding the o-and p-effects coincide very well with the results of measurement. The chemical shifts of the phenolic compounds can be classified into three types. 1) Catechol-type C-1 and C-2 145 ppm C-3 and C-6 116-107 ppm 2) Pyrogallol-type C-1 132ppm C-2 and C-6 146ppm C-3 and C-5 106ppm 3) Resorcin-type C-1 and C-3 159ppm C-2 103-95ppm C-4 and C-6 107ppm

We synthesized various catechol ether type derivatives substituted by the hydrazine moiety and evaluated for their ability to inhibit PDE Ⅳ (Phosphodiesterase Ⅳ). These new compounds were synthesized from 4-methoxy-3-hydroxy benzaldehyde through 5 or 7 steps. Some of them have similar or more potent inhibitory activity against PDE Ⅳ than known PDE Ⅳ inhibitor. Ariflo (SB 207499). Structure activity relationship (SAR) and biological studies of described compounds will be discussed in detail. (omitted)

점막접착 기능은 인체의 다양한 장기에 적용되는 의료용 접착제에 요구되는 중요한 특성이며, 점막접착 기능을 갖는 고분자를 개발하기 위하여 많은 연구가 이루어지고 있다. 최근 많은 연구자들이 생체모방 기술을 통한 점막접착형 고분자를 개발하고 있고, 그 중 해양 부착 생물인 홍합의 접착 기능 및 특성이 접착제 연구의 주요 대상이 되어왔다. 본 연구에서는 홍합 접착 물질 속에 과량 존재해 표면 접착 기능을 발현하는 카테콜 구조가 도입된 생체모방형 고분자를 합성하였고, 핵자기공명분광법 및 젤투과크로마토그래피를 사용하여 분석하였다. In vitro 상에서 돼지의 소장점막하조직 sheet를 준비하여 전단 시편을 제작하고 점막접착력을 측정하였다. 점막접착형 고분자는 현재 상업적으로 사용되고 있는 대조군인 피브린글루와 비교할 때 월등한 접착력을 보였다. 또한, 다양한 인자를 변화시키며 최적의 점막접착력을 나타내는 조건을 확립하였다. 이러한 결과들을 토대로 우수한 점막접착형 특성을 나타내는 고분자를 개발하였고 다양한 임상적용 및 의료용 기기에 도입가능한 소재의 기초연구를 수행하였다고 사료된다.

본 연구에서는 단일 탄소원과 질소원으로 aniline을 이용하는 것으로 보고된 바 있는 Bukholderia sp. HY1과 Deiftia sp. HY99로부터 aniline의 첫 번째 분해 단계에 관련된 aniline dioxygenas의 위치를 확인하고 그 유전자를 클로닝하여 아미노산 서열을 결정하고 비교하였다. 한 개 이상의 플라스미드 DNA를 포함하고 있을 것으로 조사된 B.a sp. HY1에서 유래된 플라스미드의 curing 실험을 통해, B. sp. HY1의 aniline oxygenase는 플라스미드가 아닌 염색체 DNA에 존재하는 것으로 확인되었다. B. sp. HY1과 D. sp. HY99에서 유래된 aniline dioxygenase small subunit는 146개 아미노산을 기준으로 약 79%의 상동성을 보였다. 특히, B. sp. HY1으로부터 얻어진 ado2는 aniline dioxygenase small subunit의 terminal dioxygenase에 속하는 것으로 Frateuria sp. ANA-18의 tdnA2와 99%, 그리고 Delftia sp. HY99의 ado2는 Delftia sp. AN3의 danA2와 99% 이상의 아미노산 상동성을 나타내었다. 또한 본 연구에서 두 균주에서 얻어진 catechol oxygenase의 아미노산 서열분석을 통해 B. sp. HY1은 catechol 1,2-dioxygenase에 의해 ortho pathway를 D. sp. HY99는 catechol 2,3-dioxygenase에 의해 meta pathway를 운영할 것이라는 이전 보고를 강력하게 뒷받침해 주었다.
