  • MPECVD법을 이용하여 다이아몬드 박막을 p형 Si(100)기판 위에 증착하였다. 증착하기에 앞서, 핵생성 밀도를 향상시키기 위하여 40-$60\mu$m 크기의 다이아몬드 분말을 사용하여 6분간 초음파 전처리를 행하였다. 이런 전처리 과정 후, 다이아몬드 박막을 $^900{\circ}C$, 40Torr, 1000W microwave power에서 ${CH}_{4}$${H}_{2}$사용하여 증착하였다. 이렇게 형성된 다이아몬드 박막의 순수도는 Raman spectroscopy로 측정하였으며 박막의 표면은 SEM으로 , 그리고 미세구조와 미세결함은 TEM으로 조사하였다. 반응기체 중 CH4의 농도가 증가함에 따라 다이아몬드의 정형적인 Raman peak와 더불어 다이아몬드가 아닌 제 2상의 peak가 증가하였다. SEM에 의한 박막의 표면은 ${CH}_{4}$가 증가함에 따라 박막의 표면이 뚜렷한 결정형상에서 cauliflower 형태로 변화하였다. 다이아몬드 박막의 결함밀도는 ${CH}_{4}$농도가 증가함에 따라 증가하였으며 결함 중 대부분은 {111}twin이였다. 그리고 MTP(Mulitply Twinned Particle)는 5개의 (111)면으로 형성된 결정으로, 5개의 (111)면은 각각에 대해서 Twin되어 있으며 five-fold symmetry를 나타내었다. 계면에서는 다이아몬드내의 결함들이 핵생성 site를 함유한 작은 지역에서부터 V형재로 퍼져 나갔다.

  • 천연물에서 피부 미백 효능을 가진 화합물을 개발하기 위한 노력이 많이 이루어지고 있다. 꽃송이 버섯(Sparassis crispa)은 β-glucan의 함량이 건조중량의 40% 이상으로서 항암과 면역증강 효과가 있는 것으로 입증되어 약용으로도 인정받고 있다. 이 연구에서는 S. crispa β-glucan의 멜라닌 생합성 및 tyrosinase 활성억제 효능을 확인함으로써 피부 미백제로서의 활용 가능성을 평가하고자 하였다. 외부 자극제인 α-melanocyte stimulating hormone (α-MSH)와 S. crispa β-glucan (10, 100, 1,000 ㎍/ml)을 B16F1 melanoma 세포에 투여하여 멜라닌 생성량과 tyrosinase 활성도를 측정하였다. Tyrosinase, tyrosinase related protein-1 (TRP-1), TRP-2, microphthalmia-associated transcription factor (MITF)의 발현정도에 대해서는 western blot으로 분석하였다. S. crispa β-glucan을 10, 100, 1,000 ㎍/ml의 농도로 투여하였을 때 α-MSH 만 투여군에 비하여 멜라닌 생성이 각각 13.9%, 18.7%, 39.5% 감소하였다. S. crispa β-glucan을 10, 100, 1,000 ㎍/ml의 농도로 투여하였을 때 β-glucan을 투여하지않은 α-MSH 유도군에 비하여 tyrosinase 활성도는 각각 15.6%, 26.9%, 43.2% 억제되었다. 또한 tyrosinase와 TRP-1, TRP-2, MITF 단백 발현도 효과적으로 감소시켰다. 본 연구 결과에 따르면 S. crispa β-glucan은 MITF 발현을 억제함으로써 tyrosinase 발현을 감소시켜 멜라닌 생성을 억제시킨 것으로 판단된다. 따라서 S. crispa β-glucan은 미백제로서 유용하게 활용할 수 있을 것으로 생각한다.

  • Transient uidA expression was used to optimize parameters required for biolistic transformation of suspension cells of Easter lily, Lilium longiflourm. Maximum uidA expression occurred following bombardment with gold particles as compared to tungsten. A 3hr pre-treatment of suspension cells with 0.125M osmoticum resulted in a 1.5X increase in uidA expression. A helium pressure of 1550 psi combined with a particle travelling distance of 6cm resulted in maximum uidA expression as compared to either 1100, 1200, or 1800 psi. Transient transformation resulted in up to 493 uidA expressing cells/Petri plate. For stable transformation suspension cells of Lilium longiflorum, were co-bombarded with plasmid DNA containing cucumber mosaic virus (CMV) replicase under the rice actin (Act1) promoter and either the bar or PAT genes under the cauliflower mosaic virus (CaMV 355) promoter. Ten regenerated plants contained the transgene as analyzed by PCR, and two of the ten plants were confirmed to contain the transgene by Southern hybridization. The two transgenic plants were independent transformants, one containing the bar gene and the other both the CMV replicase and bar genes. Plants were sprayed at the rosette stage and found to be resistant to 1000 mg/L of phosphinothricin (Trade name-Ignite) indicating expression of the bar gene throughout the leaves when bar was under control of the CaMV 35S promoter.

  • Cruciferous vegetables are rich in organosulfur compounds such as isothiocyanates and sulfides. While the isothiocyanates, corresponding to pungent principle, are generated from myrosinase-catalyzed hydrolysis of glucosinolates, the sulfides can be generated non-enzymatically. Recent studies provide evidences that some sulfur compounds in these vegetables show a chemopreventive action against carcinogenesis; while isothiocyanates such as sulforaphane induce phase 2 enzymes (glutathione S-transferase/quinone reductase), disulfides tends to elevate the level of phase 1 and 2 enzymes. Especially, sulforaphane rich in Cruciferae vegetables has been reported to express anticarcinogenic effect in some organs such as liver, kidney or intestine. When the level of sulfur compounds in Cruciferous and Alliaceous vegetables was determined by GC/MS (SIM), the richest in sulforaphane is broccoli followed by turnip, cabbage, radish, kale, cauliflower and Chinese cabbage. Meanwhile, the sulfides are predominant in Alliaceous vegetables such as onion. In related study, the administration of vegetable extract elevated the GST level by 1.5 fold for broccoli, 1.4 fold for radish, and 1.3 for onion. Thus, the vegetables frequently used in Korean dish contain relatively high amount of anticarcinogenic sulfur compounds. Moreover, the combination of broccoli and radish extracts elevated the GST induction up to 1.84 folds of control. In addition, the Kakdugi, fermented radish Kimchi was observed to show a comparable GST induction despite the decomposition of methylthio-3-butenylisothiocyanate (MTBI). Therefore, the combination of vegetables including broccoli, and fermented radish Kimchi would be useful as a functional food for chemoprevention.

  • An infectious full-length clone of Soybean mosaic virus (SMV) strain G5H was constructed under the control of the cauliflower mosaic virus 35S promoter. The cloned SMV G5H established infections upon simple rub-inoculation of soybean leaves with intact plasmid DNA. We demonstrated that this SMV G5H infectious DNA clone caused typical characteristic symptoms and virulence of SMV strain G5H in twelve tested soybean cultivars. Soybean cultivars Lee74, Somyungkong and Sowonkong developed systemic mosaic symptom while Kwanggyo, Taekwangkong, Hwangkeumkong and Geumjeongkong-l showed systemic necrosis. In contrast, Geumjeongkong-2, Jinpumkong-2, L29, V94-5152 and Ogden showed resistant response against SMV-G5H infection. We also determined full-length sequence of cloned SMV-G5H. The phyogenetic analyses reveal that SMV-G5H is most closely related to SMV-G5, and support that SMV-G5H might be derived from SMV-G5 by recombination rather than mutation.

  • Cysteine proteases have been known as a critical factor in plant defense mechanisms in pineapple, papaya, or wild fig. Papain or ficin is one kind of cysteine proteases that shows toxic effects to herbivorous insects and pathogenic bacteria. However, resistance to bacterial soft rot of plants genetically engineered with cysteine protease has been little examined thus far. We cloned a cysteine protease cDNA from Ananas comosus and introduced the gene into Chinese cabbage (Brassica rapa) under the control of the cauliflower mosaic virus 35S promoter. The transgene was stably integrated and actively transcribed in transgenic plants. In comparisons with wild-type plants, the $T_2$ and $T_3$ transgenic plants exhibited a significant increase in endo-protease activity in leaves and enhanced resistance to bacterial soft rot. A cDNA microarray analysis revealed that several genes were more abundantly transcribed in the transgenic than in the wild type. These genes encode a glyoxal oxidase, PR-1 protein, PDF1, protein kinase, LTP protein, UBA protein and protease inhibitor. These results suggest an important role for cysteine protease as a signaling regulator in biotic stress signaling pathways, leading to the build-up of defense mechanism to pathogenic bacteria in plants.

  • 대기압하에서 수소를 첨가한 연소염장치를 이용하여 몰리브덴 기판 위에 다이아몬드 필름을 증착시켰다. 기판 온도의 증가에 따라 핵생성밀도가 증가하였으며, $1000^{\circ}C$ 이상에서는 흑연화되고 이것이 수소 원자에 의해 에칭되었다. $C_2H_2/O_2$ 유량비를 증가시킬수록 핵생성밀도는 증가하였지만 결정형태가 구형화되며 비정질카본이 많이 증착되었다. $H_2$를 첨가하면, 표면 활성도가 향상되어 다이아몬드 핵생성밀도가 증가되었으며, 비정질카본을 에칭시켜 우수한 결정성의 다이아몬드 필름을 얻을 수 있었다. 증착시간을 증가시키면 다이아몬드 필름의 두께가 증가하였다.

  • Proline accumulation has been shown to correlate with tolerance to drought and salt stresses in plants. We attempt to introduce the wild-type, mutant, and fusion proBA genes derived from Bacillus subtilis into Arabidopsis thaliana under the control of a strong promoter cauliflower mosaic virus 35S (CaMV35S). The transgenic plants produced higher level of free proline than control and the overproduction of proline resulted in the increased tolerance to osmotic stress in transgenic plants. Besides, the mutation in proBA genes, which were proved to lead $\alpha$-glutamyl kinase ($\alpha$-GK) reduces sensitivity to the end-product inhibition and the fusion of proB and proA also result in increasing proline production and confer osmotolerance in transgenic lines.

  • A 57 year old human immune virus(HIV)-positive male presented with a progressive dyspnea for 6 months. Chest CT showed multiple polypoid masses arising from upper tracheal wall. Bronchoscopic examination revealed that multiple large cauliflower-like polypoid tumors was obstructing tracheal lumen. They were diagnosed as multiple squamous papillomas and were removed by Nd:YAG laser photocoagulation and rigid bronchoscopic treatment. The tumors were histologically diagnosed as squamous papilloma infected with human papilloma virus(HPV) type 6 and 11 in in-situ hybridization. Rigid bronchoscopy might be safer and more efficient than flexible bronchoscopy for the treatment of multiple tracheal papillomatosis obstructing tracheal lumen because of easy establishment of airway patency and direct use of rigid bronchoscope itself for tumor resection.
