k-Casein을 정제한 후 여기에 chymosin을 반응시켜 얻어진 k-Casein macropeptide에 대한 trichloroacetic acid 처리에 대한 영향을 조사하고자 ion exchange column으로 분별하여 chromatogram을 비교하였다. P-I의 경우 $3\%$ TCA에서는 전체 peak면적 대비 $46.64\%$이었으나, $6\%$와 $12\%$ TCA로 영향을 크게 받아 많이 침전되었으며, 상대적으로 당 함량이 높은 peak들은 TCA의 영향을 비교적 적게 받는 것으로 나타났다. Cholera 독소와 결합하는 것으로 보고된 P-III는 $3\%$ TCA에서는 $10.2\%$이었으나 $6\%$ TCA 경우에는 $26.3\%$로 상대적 면적이 증가하였으나 $12\%$ TCA로 처리한 경우에는 $13.2\%$로 감소하였다. $0.2\~0.3M$의 NaCl에서 용출되는 peak는 $12\%$ TCA에서도 상당한 안정성을 보였다. 0.18M의 NaCl gradient에서 용출되는 P-III는 $6\%$및 $12\%$ TCA처리시에도 cholera 독소와 반응하는 것으로 나타났다.

여러가지 환경 stress에서 유도되는 폐렴구균 열충격단백질 GroEL의 특성에 대하여 검토하였다. 비병원성인 폐렴구균(Streptococcusa pneumoniae)을 사용하여 stress 조건을 설정하고 이 설정된 조건에서 stress에 의해 유도되는 단백질을 $^{35}S$]-methionine으로 표지하여 autoradiography를 실시하였다. 열충격을 가했을 때 유도되는 단백질(65, 73, 84-kDa 등) 중 65 kDa의 단백질(hsp65)을 DEAE-Sepharose ion exchange 및 ATP-agarose affinity chromatography를 이용하여 분리 정제하였으며 hsp65에 대해 생성된 항체를 이용하여 immunoblot을 실시하였을 때 약 60 kDa의 대장균 단백질과 반응하였으며 정제된 폐렴구균 hsp65가 대장균의 anti-GroEL monoclonal 항체와 반응함으로써 폐렴구균 hsp65가 대장균GroEL과 유사한 단백질임을 확인하였다.

A gene encoding a $\gamma-butyrolactone$ autoregulator receptor was cloned from Saccharopolyspora erythraea, and the biochemical characteristics, including the autoregulator specificity, were determined with the purified recombinant protein. Using primers designed for the conserved amino acid sequence of Streptomyces $\gamma-butyrolactone$ autoregulator receptors, a 120 bp S. erythraea DNA fragment was obtained by PCR. Southern and colony hybridization with the 120 bp fragment as a probe allowed to select a genomic clone of S. erythraea, pESG, harboring a 3.2 kb SacI fragment. Nucleotide sequencing analysis revealed a 615 bp open reading frame (ORF), showing moderate homology (identity, $31-34\%$; similarity, $45-47\%$) with the $\gamma-butyrolactone$ autoregulator receptors from Streptomyces sp., and this ORF was named seaR (Saccharopolyspora erythraea autoregulator receptor). The seaR/pET-3d plasmid was constructed to overexpress the recombinant SeaR protein (rSeaR) in Escherichia coli, and the rSeaR protein was purified to homogeneity by DEAE-Sephacel column chromatography, followed by DEAE-ion-exchange HPLC. The molecular mass of the purified rSeaR protein was 52 kDa by HPLC gel-filtration chromatography and 27 kDa by SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, indicating that the rSeaR protein is present as a dimer. A binding assay with tritium-labeled autoregulators revealed that rSeaR has clear binding activity with a VB-C-type autoregulator as the most effective ligand, demonstrating for the first time that the erythromycin producer S. erythraea possesses a gene for the $\gamma-butyrolactone$autoregulator receptor.

The humanized anti-hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) monoclonal antibody (mAb) YYB-101 is a promising therapeutic candidate for treating various cancers. In this study, we developed a bioprocess for large-scale production of YYB-101 and evaluated its therapeutic potential for tumor treatment using a xenograft mouse model. By screening diverse chemically defined basal media formulations and by assessing the effects of various feed supplements and feeding schedules on cell growth and antibody production, we established an optimal medium and feeding method to produce 757 mg/l of YYB-101 in flask cultures, representing a 7.5-fold increase in titer compared with that obtained under non-optimized conditions. The optimal dissolved oxygen concentration for antibody production was 70% $pO_2$. A pH shift from 7.2 to 7.0, rather than controlled pH of either 7.0 or 7.2, resulted in productivity improvement in 5 L and 200 L bioreactors, yielding 737 and 830 mg/ml of YYB-101, respectively. The YYB-101 mAb highly purified by affinity chromatography using a Protein A column and two-step ion exchange chromatography effectively neutralized HGF in a cell-based assay and showed potent tumor suppression activity in a mouse xenograft model established with human glioblastoma cells.

An investigation was conducted on the enhancement of production and purification of an oxidant and SDS-stable alkaline protease (BHAP) secreted by an alkalophilic Bacillus horikoshii, which was screened from the body fluid of a unique Korean polychaeta (Periserrula leucophryna) living in the tidal mud flats of Kwangwha Island in the Korean West Sea. A prominent effect on BHAP production was obtained by adding 2% maltose, 1% sodium citrate, 0.8% NaCl, and 0.6% sodium carbonate to the culturing medium. The optimal medium for BHAP production contained (g/l) SBM, 15; casein, 10; $K_2HPO_4$, 2; $KH_2PO_4$, 2; maltose, 20; sodium citrate, 10; $MgSO_4$, 0.06; NaCl, 8; and $Na_2CO_3$, 6. A protease yield of approximately 56,000 U/ml was achieved using the optimized medium, which is an increase of approximately 5.5-fold compared with the previous optimization (10,050 U/ml). The BHAP was homogenously purified 34-fold with an overall recovery of 34% and a specific activity of 223,090 U/mg protein using adsorption with Diaion HPA75, hydrophobic interaction chromatography (HIC) on Phenyl-Sepharose, and ion-exchange chromatography on a DEAE- and CM-Sepharose column. The purified BHAP was determined a homogeneous by SDS-PAGE, with an apparent molecular mass of 28 kDa, and it showed extreme stability towards organic solvents, SDS, and oxidizing agents. The $K_m$ and $k_{cat}$ values were 78.7 ${\mu}M$ and $217.4s^{-1}$ for N-succinyl-Ala-Ala-Pro-Phe-pNA at $37^{\circ}C$ and pH 9, respectively. The inhibition profile exhibited by PMSF suggested that the protease from B. horikoshii belongs to the family of serine proteases. The BHAP, which showed high stability against SDS and $H_2O_2$, has significance for industrial application, such as additives in detergent and feed industries.

This study was conducted for the isolation, purification, and characterization of a protease from Korean pear, to see its proteolytic activity on chicken actomyosin and to find the optimum pH and temperature of activity on chicken actomyosin. The protease was isolated from crude extract of Korean pear by ammonium sulfate precipitation. Further purification was done by DEAE-Sepharose ion-exchange chromatography, Mono-Q and Mini-Q column chromatography. The purified enzyme gave a single protein band on SDS polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and the molecular weight was found to be 38 kDa. The specific activity of purified enzyme was 34,907 unit/mg with 25 fold purification and the yield was 2%. The purified enzyme incubated with chicken actomyosin showed high activity. The optimum pH and temperature for enzyme activity on chicken actomyosin were 6.5 and $70^{\circ}C$, respectively. A protease was purified from Korean pear for the first time and characterized. It was found to be promising for meat tenderization.

An isotope dilution-liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometric method was developed as a candidate reference method for the accurate determination of acrylamide in potato chips, starch-rich foodstuff cooked at high temperature. Sample was spiked with 13C3-acrylamide and then extracted with water. The extract was further cleaned up with an Oasis HLB solid-phase extraction (SPE) cartridge and an Oasis mixed-phase cation exchange (MCX) SPE cartridge. The extract was analyzed by using LC/ESI/Tandem MS in positive ion mode. LC with a medium reversed-phase (C4) column was optimized to obtain adequate chromatographic retention and separation of acrylamide. MS was operated to selectively monitor [M+H]+ ions of the analyte and its isotope analogue at m/z 72 and m/z 75, respectively. Sample was also analyzed by the LC/MS with selectively monitoring the collisionally induced dissociation channels of m/z 72 → m/z 55 and m/z 75 → 58. Compared to the LC/MS chromatograms, the LC/MS/MS chromatograms showed substantially reduced background chemical noises coming from solvent clusters formed during ESI spray processes and interferences from sample matrix. Repeatability and reproducibility studies showed that the LC/MS/MS method is a reliable and reproducible method which can provide a typical method precision of 1.0% while the LC/MS results are influenced by chemical interferences.
