  • ${\beta}_2$-adrenergic receptor (${\beta}_2-AR$) was expressed efficiently using Bac-to-Bac Baculovirus Expression System in Sf9 cells as a bio-recognition element for multianalyte screening of ${\beta}$-agonist residues in pork. Sf9 cells were selected as the expression system, and codon optimization of wild-type nucleic acid sequence and time-dependent screening of expression conditions were then carried out for enhancing expression level and biological activity. Under optimum conditions of multiplicity of infection (MOI) = 5 and 48 h post transfection, the protein yield was up to 1.23 mg/ml. After purification by chromatographic techniques, the purified recombinant protein was applied to develop a direct competitive enzyme-linked receptor assay (ELRA) and the efficiency and reliability of the assay was determined. The IC50 values of clenbuterol, salbutamol, and ractopamine were 28.36, 50.70, and $59.57{\mu}g/l$, and clenbuterol showed 47.61% and 55.94% cross-reactivities with ractopamine and salbutamol, respectively. The limit of detection (LOD) was $3.2{\mu}g/l$ and the relevant recoveries in pork samples were in the range of 73.0-91.2%, 69.4-84.6%, and 63.7-80.2%, respectively. The results showed that it had better performance compared with other present nonradioactive receptorbased assays, indicating that the genetically modified ${\beta}_2-AR$ would have great application potential in detection of ${\beta}$-agonist residues.

  • Alterations in the cellular genome affecting the expression or function of genes controlling cell growth and differentiation are considered to be the main cause of cancer. Over 30 oncogenes can be activated by insertional mutagenesis, single point mutations, chromosomal translocations and gene amplification. The ras oncogenes have been detected in $15{\sim}20%$ of human tumors that include some of the most common forms of human neoplasia and are known to acquire their transforming properties by single point mutations in two domains of their coding sequences, most commonly in codons 12 and 61. The ras gene family consists of three functional genes, N-ras, K-ras and H-ras which encode highly similar proteins of 188 or 189 amino acid residues generically known as P21. ras proteins have been shown to bind GTP and GTP, and possess intrinsic GTPase activity. Experimental study was performed to observe the mutational change of the ras gene family and apply the results to the clinical activity. 36 Golden Syrian Hamster each weighing $60{\sim}80g$ were used and painted with 0.5% DMBA by 3 times weekly on the right buccal cheek(experimental side) for 6, 8, 10, 12, 14 and 16 weeks. Left buccal cheek (control side) was treated with mineral oil as the same manner of the right side. The hamsters were sacrificed on the 6, 8, 10, 12, 14 & 16 weeks. Normal and tumor tissues from paraffin block were completely dissected by microdissection and DNA from both tissue were isolated by proteinase K/phenol/chloroform extraction. Segments of the K-ras and H-ras gene were amplified by PCR using the oligonucleotide primers corresponding to the homologous region (codon 12 and 61) of the hamster gene, and then confirmational change of ras genes was observed by SSCP and autosequencing analysis. The results were as follows : 1. Malignant lesion could be found in the experimental side from the experimental six weeks. 2. One hamster among six showed point mutation of the H-ras codon 12($G{\rightarrow}A$ transition) at the experimental 10 and 14 weeks. 3. One of six at 6 weeks, two of six at 8 weeks and one of six at 12 weeks revealed the confirmational change of the H-ras codon 61($A{\rightarrow}T$ transversion). 4. The incidence of point mutation of H-ras codon 12 and 61 were 5.5%(2 of 36) and 11%(4 of 36) respectively. 5. Point mutation of the K-ras could not be seen during the whole experimental period. Form the above results, these findings strongly support the concept that H-ras oncogenes may have the influence of the DMBA induced carcinoma of hamster buccal pouch.

  • 세포 분열 및 성장 촉진에 영향을 주는 상피세포 성장인자(Epidermal Growth Factor, EGF)는 다양한 의학적 용도를 갖고 있는 호르몬 단백질이다. 본 연구에서는 human EGF 유전자를 대장균 코돈에 최적화 하고 pRSET 벡터에 클로닝하여 발현벡터를 구축하였다. Human EGF를 봉입체가 아닌 활성이 있는 형태로의 과량 발현을 위해 코돈의 최적화와 더불어 최초로 샤페론 공발현이 시도되었다. 발현된 Native protein 형태의 재조합 human EGF는 고순도로 정제하기 위해 Ion Exchange Chromatography를 2번 연속적으로 수행하여 순수 분리 정제되었고, ELISA 분석결과 99% 이상으로 재조합 EGF의 활성도가 상업용 EGF와 유사하게 나타났으며, 세포증식시험 결과 인간 재조합 EGF는 인체 피부 섬유아세포의 세포증식을 촉진하는 것으로 확인 되었다. 본 연구의 인간 EGF 발현 시스템은 양적인 측면 뿐 아니라 성공적인 활성형태의 발현으로 추가적인 재접힘 과정 및 N 말단의 융합부분을 제거하기 위한 크로마토그래피 작업이 필요가 없다는 점에서 기존의 방법들에 대체 될 수 있는 효과적인 인간 EGF 발현 시스템을 제공하고 있다.

  • 본 논문에서는 DNA 시퀀스의 불법 복제 및 변이 방지를 위한 DNA 워터마킹 기법을 제안한다. 제안한 DNA 워터마킹은 랜덤 맵핑 테이블에 의하여 코돈들을 랜덤 원형 각도로 수치화한 다음, 웨이블릿 국부계수 최대치의 Lipscihtz regularity 상수에 의하여 삽입 대상 코돈들을 탐색한다. 워터마크 삽입과정에서 DNA의 아미노산 코드가 변경되지 않도록 하기위하여 삼중 코돈들의 랜덤 코돈 원형 각도에 워크마크를 삽입한다. 삽입 대상 코돈들의 길이와 위치는 랜덤 맵핑 테이블에 의존하므로, 이 테이블을 알지 못할 경우, 워터마크 추출이 어렵다. 그리고 제안한 방법은 다양한 길이의 DNA 서열에 64개 코돈(종료, 개시 코돈포함)들의 랜덤 맵핑 테이블을 적용함으로써 동일한 길이의 워터마크 키를 적용한다. 본 실험에서는 랜덤 맵핑 테이블과 삽입 위치의 높은 엔트로피를 통하여 워터마크의 보안성을 확인하였다. 또한 기존의 DNA-Crypt 워터마킹과의 유사한 용량 하에서 제안한 방법이 낮은 염기 변화율을 가지며, 포인트 변이, 삽입 및 삭제 변이에 대하여 낮은 에러률를 가지며, ROC 분석을 통하여 우수한 검출 능력을 가짐을 확인하였다.

  • Type I Interferons (IFNα) are known for their role as biological anticancer agents owing to their cell-apoptosis inducing properties. Development of an appropriate, cost-effective host expression system is crucial for meeting the increasing demand for proteins. Therefore, this study aims to develop codon-optimized IFNα-2b in L. lactis NZ3900. These cells express extracellular protein using the NICE system and Usp45 signal peptide. To validate the mature form of the expressed protein, the recombinant IFNα-2b was screened in a human colorectal cancer cell line using the cytotoxicity assay. The IFNα-2b was successfully cloned into the pNZ8148 vector, thereby generating recombinant L. lactis pNZ8148-SPUsp45-IFNα-2b. The computational analysis of codon-optimized IFNα-2b revealed no mutation and amino acid changes; additionally, the codon-optimized IFNα-2b showed 100% similarity with native human IFNα-2b, in the BLAST analysis. The partial size exclusion chromatography (SEC) of extracellular protein yielded a 19 kDa protein, which was further confirmed by its positive binding to anti-IFNα-2b in the western blot analysis. The crude protein and SEC-purified partial fraction showed IC50 values of 33.22 ㎍/ml and 127.2 ㎍/ml, respectively, which indicated better activity than the metabolites of L. lactis NZ3900 (231.8 ㎍/ml). These values were also comparable with those of the regular anticancer drug tamoxifen (105.5 ㎍/ml). These results demonstrated L. lactis as a promising host system that functions by utilizing the pNZ8148 NICE system. Meanwhile, codon-optimized usage of the inserted gene increased the optimal protein expression levels, which could be beneficial for its large-scale production. Taken together, the recombinant L. lactis IFNα-2b is a potential alternative treatment for colorectal cancer. Furthermore, its activity was analyzed in the WiDr cell line, to assess its colorectal anticancer activities in vivo.
