  • 물고기에서 효과적인 발현 vector의 구성을 위해, 미꾸라지 MAR로부터 ARS를 cloning하여, 그 염기서열을 분석하였다. 총 443 염기들로 구성된 미꾸라지의 ARS는 다른 여러종들의 DNA 복제원점에서 나타나는 것 처럼, AT가 풍부하고, ARS consensus sequences, topoi-somerase II consensus sequences, 그리고 A 흑은 T-box등을 포함하고 있다. 그리고 그 DNA 단편은 복제원점에서 일반적인 양상으로 나타나는 반복적인 inverted sequence들을 가지고 있고, 5개의 가능한 hairpin loop 구조들을 내포하고 있다. 이들 구조는 DNA 복제개시에 관여하는 단백질들의 인지부위로 작용할 것으로 생각된다.

  • 순차패턴 탐색은 다양한 응용 분야에서 매우 중요한 데이터 마이닝 작업으로 간주된다. 그러나 기존의 순차패턴 탐색 방법들은 길이가 긴 순차패턴이나 노이즈 정보를 다수 포함한 데이터베이스에 대한 마이닝에서는 한계가 있다. 해당 방법들은 매우 짧고 사소한 패턴들은 탐색하지만 다수의 순차 정보들에서 공유되는 중요 패턴들을 분석하는데 어려움을 겪는다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위한 방법으로 대용량 데이터베이스에 대한 근사 순차패턴 탐색 방법을 제안한다. 근사 순차패턴은 다수의 순차 정보들에서 근사적으로 공유되는 순차패턴을 의미한다. 제안된 방법은 두 과정으로 구분된다. 하나는 유사도에 따라 분석 대상 순차 정보들을 몇 개의 군집으로 나누는 과정이며, 다른 하나는 다중 정렬 방식을 적용하여 각 군집으로부터 대표 패턴을 찾는 과정이다. 이를 위해서 다수의 순차 정보들을 하나로 표현할 수 있는 가중치 순차패턴을 제시하며, 다수의 순차 정보들은 가중치 순차패턴 형태로 통합된다. 이렇게 통합된 정보를 가진 각 가중치 순차패턴을 이용하여 여러 순차 정보와 근사한 하나의 대표 패턴을 생성한다. 끝으로, 다양한 실험을 통해서 제안된 방법의 유용성을 검증한다.

  • DNA fragment assembly is a major concem in shot-gun DNA sequencing project. It is to reconstruct a consensus DNA sequence from a collection of random oritented fragments. We developed a computer program that is useful for DNA fragment assembly. Inputs to the program are DNA fragment sequences including IUB-IUPAC bases. The program produces the most probable reconstruction ot the original DNA sequence as a text format or a PostScript format. The program consists of four phases: the first phase quickly eliminates fragment pairs that can not possibly overlap. In the second phase, the quality of overlap between each pair is calculated to a score. In the third phase, overlap pairs are sorted by their scores and consistency of the overlaps is checked. The last phase determines consensus sequences and displays them. The performance of fragment assembly program was tested on a set of DNA fragment sequences which were generated from long DNA sequences of GenBank by a fragmentation program.

  • One clone(pANt32) carring tRNA/sup Arg/ gene was selected from Aspergillus total tRNA gene clones. The nucleotide sequences of this tRNA gene were determined by Maxam and Gilbert's chemical cleavage methods. The sequence of this tRNA gene is as follow; 5'GGCCGGCTGCCCAATTGGCAAGGCGTCTGACTACGAATCAGGAGAT TGCAGGTTCGAGCCCTGCGTGGGTCA3'. This sequence conicides with the characteristecs of other eukaryotic tRNA. Some consensus sequences (ACT-TA bow, TATTTT and T-cluster) are found in both 5'-end and 3'-end flanking regions.

  • Only one natural promoter that interacts with bacteriophage K11 RNA polymerase has so far been identified. To identify more, in the present study restriction fragments of the phage genome were individually assayed for transcription activity in vitro. The K11 genome was digested with two 4-bp-recognizing restriction enzymes, and the fragments cloned in pUC119 were assayed with purified K11 RNA polymerase. Eight K11 promoter-bearing fragments were isolated and sequenced. We report that the nine K11 promoter sequences (including the one previously identified) were highly homologous from -17 to +4, relative to the initiation site at +1. Interestingly, five had -10G and -8A, while the other four had -10A and -8C. The consensus sequences with the natural -10G/-8A and -10A/-8C, and their variants with -10G/-8C and -10A/-8A, showed nearly equal transcription activity, suggesting residues at -10 and -8 do not regulate promoter activity. Using hybridization methods, physical positions of the cloned promoter-bearing sequences were mapped on SalI-and KpnI-restriction maps of the K11 genome. The flanking sequences of six cloned K11 promoters were found to be orthologous with T7 or T3 genomic sequences.

  • We generated 16,993 expressed sequence tags (ESTs) from two libraries containing full-length cDNAs from the brain and liver of the Korean Jindo dog. An additional 365,909 ESTs from other dog breeds were identified from the NCBI dbEST database, and all ESTs were clustered into 28,514 consensus sequences using StackPack. We selected the 7,305 consensus sequences that could be assembled from at least five ESTs and estimated that 12,533 high-quality single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were present in 97,835 putative SNPs from the 7,305 consensus sequences. We identified 58 Jindo dog-specific SNPs in comparison to other breeds and predicted seven synonymous SNPs and ten non-synonymous SNPs. Using PolyPhen, a program that predicts changes in protein structure and potential effects on protein function caused by amino acid substitutions, three of the non-synonymous SNPs were predicted to result in changes in protein function for proteins expressed by three different genes (TUSC3, ITIH2, and NAT2).

  • Attempts using in vitro and in vivo selection procedures have been made to search for hammerhead ribozymes that have higher activities than the wild-type ribozyme and also to determine whether other sequences might be possible in the catalytic core of the hammerhead ribozyme. Active sequences selected in the past conformed broadly to the consensus core sequence except at A9, and no sequences were associated with higher activity than that of the hammerhead with the consensus core, an indication that the consensus sequence derived from viruses and virusoids is probably the optimal sequence [Vaish et al. (1997) Biochemistry 36, 6495-6501]. Recently, during construction of ribozyme expression vectors, we isolated a mutant hammerhead ribozyme, with an insertion of G between A9 and G10.1, that appeared to show significant activity [Kawasaki et al. (1996) Nucleic Acids Res. 24, 3010-3016; Kawasaki et al. (1998) Nature 393, 284-289]. We, therefore, characterized kinetic properties of the G-inserted mutant ribozymes in terms of the NUX rule. We demonstrate that the NUX rule is basically applicable to the G-inserted ribozymes and, more importantly, one type of G-inserted ribozyme was very active with $k_{cat}$, value of $6.4\;min^{-1}$ in 50 mM Tris-HCl (pH 8.0) and 10 mM $MgCl_2$ at $37^{\circ}C$.

  • Adozelesin and carzelesin are synthetic analogues of the extremely potent antitumor antibiotic CC-1065, which alkylates N3 of adenine in a consensus sequence $5^1$-(A/T)(A/T)$A^*$ ($A^*$ is the site of alkylation). We have investigated the DNA sequence selectivity of adozelesin and carzelesin by thermally ind ced DNA strand cleavage assay using radiolabeled restriction DNA fragments. An analysis of alkylation patterns shows that the consensus sequences for carzelesin and adozelesin have been found to be $5^1$-(A/T)(A/T)$A^*$ and $5^1$-(A/F)(G/C)(A/T)$A^*$. A new consensus sequence, $5^1$-(A/T)(A/T)$CA^*$, has been observed to display an additional alkylation site for adozelesin but not for carzelesin. These results indicate that the pattern of sequence selectivity induced by carzelesin is similar but not identical to those induced by adozelosin.

  • Accurate detection, tracking and analysis of human movement using robots and other visual surveillance systems is still a challenge. Efforts are on to make the system robust against constraints such as variation in shape, size, pose and occlusion. Traditional methods of detection used the sliding window approach which involved scanning of various sizes of windows across an image. This paper concentrates on employing a state-of-the-art, hierarchical graph based method for segmentation. It has two stages: part level segmentation for color-consistent segments and object level segmentation for category-consistent regions. The tracking phase is achieved by employing SIFT keypoint descriptor based technique in a combined matching and tracking scheme with validation phase. Localization of human region in each frame is performed by keypoints by casting votes for the center of the human detected region. As it is difficult to avoid incorrect keypoints, a consensus-based framework is used to detect voting behavior. The designed methodology is tested on the video sequences having 3 to 4 persons.
