The interaction between whey carrier protein $\beta$-lactoglobulin type A and B (BLG-A and -B) and 2,2'-bipyridin n-hexyl dithiocarbamato Pd(II) nitrate (BPHDC-Pd(II)), a new heavy metal complex designed for anticancer property, was investigated by fluorescence spectroscopy combined with chemometry and circular dichroism (CD) techniques. A strong fluorescence quenching reaction of BPHDC-Pd(II) to BLG-A and -B was observed. Hence, BPHDC-Pd(II) complex can be bound to both BLG-A and -B, and quench the fluorescence spectra of the proteins. The quenching constant was determined using the modified Stern-Volmer equation. The binding parameters were evaluated by fluorescence quenching method. The results of binding study provided evidences presence of two and three sets of binding sites on the BLG-B and -A, respectively, for BPHDC-Pd(II) complex. Using fluorescence spectroscopy and chemometry, the ability of BLG-A and -B to form an intermediate upon interaction with BPHDC-Pd(II) complex was assessed. CD studies displayed that under influence of different concentrations of BPHDC-Pd(II) complex, the regular secondary structure of BLG-B had no significant changes, whereas for BLG-A a transition from $\alpha$-helix to $\beta$-structure was appeared. The results for both of BLG-A and -B displayed that BPHDC-Pd(II) complex can induce a conformational transition from the native form to an intermediate state with a slightly opened conformation, which is detectable with chemometry analyses.

Lonicera caerulea var. edulis is a rare species found in some alpine region of Korea. Genetic variation in L. caerulea var. edulis has been investigated by examining 161 individuals from six natural populations: Mt. Seorak 1, Mt. Seorak 2, Mt. Jeombong, Mt. Bangtae, Mt. Gyebang, Mt. Halla. The mean genetic diversity for all the six populations was 0.25 (S.I.). The highest genetic diversity was found in Mt. Seorak (S.I.=0.3158) and the lowest was in Mt. Gyebang (S.I.=0.1047). Comparatively low level of genetic diversity was observed (Ae=1.25, P= 64.6%, S.I.=0.25), which is a typical pattern for rare tree species. AMOVA showed exceptionally large proportion of genetic variations both for among populations (34.69%) and within populations (65.31%). Excluding Mt. Gyebang, the genetic variation among and within population was 18.71% and 81.29% respectively. The UPGMA dendrogram based on genetic distance is not suitable for geographic relationship. Genetic distance of Mt. Gyebang was most distant from the other populations. Excluding Mt. Gyebang, the genetic identities among the five populations were 0.95 to 0.97, which is very high similarity level of genetic identity. This low level of genetic variations and the lack of site in nature indicates that Lonicera caerulea var. edulis demanded a serious conservation.

This study was conducted to present the ecological management of Goduk Riverside Restoration Area in Hangang, Seoul by analyzing the change of the vegetation structure. The survey site was classified into three groups. These were the vegetation restoration area, the dry plant area, and the swampy plant area. There were 141 taxa including naturalized plants and 13 species recorded in 2001 and 258 taxa including naturalized plants and 42 species were recorded in 2003 by monitoring. Monitoring results showed that the alien plants such as Humulus japonicus expanded continuously except in the vegetation restoration area. It was found that the growing status of planted shrub plants were poor, and the naturalized plants status was thriving, and the soil environment was bad in the vegetation restoration area. The alien plants such as Humulus japonicus and Aster pilosus dominated continuously in the dry plant area. The swampy native herb plants number was decreased, but the Humulus japonicus community was expanded caused by the soil drying in the swampy plant area. Soil analysis showed that the soil acidity, the available phosphates and the concentration of calcium were highly effected by cultivation. We propose ecological management as follows based on the results of the change of vegetation and soil characteristics. The vegetation restoration area should be managed by visitor's characteristics. Replanting vegetations should be based on soil characteristics. The removal of naturalized plants and established monitoring with plots is also needed. In the dry plant area and the swampy plant area, naturalized plants need to be removed in order to facilitate bio-diversity and monitoring.

A. nidulans chitin deacetylase를 자가분해 용액으로부터 소수성 상호작용 컬럼 크로마토그래피와 이온 교환 컬럼 크로마토그래피를 통해 순수 분리하였다. 효소 활성에 관여하는 아미노산을 분석하기 위해 효소 단백질과 특정 아미노산 잔기에 작용하는 화학 수식제를 반응시켜 효소를 화학 수식하였다. histidine 잔기가 화학 수식된 효소는 효소활성을 100% 상실하였으며, arginine의 잔기 혹은 tyrosine 잔기는 100 ${\mu}M$보다 높은 농도의 수식제로 화학수식 되었을 때 효소활성이 감소하였다. Aspartic acid 혹은 glutamic acid의 carboxyl group 잔기의 화학수식은 효소활성의 상대적으로 작은감소를 나타냈다. 이것은 산성 아미노산의 잔기가 화학 촉매 반응에 직접 관여하지 않았거나 혹은 산성 아미노산 잔기는 효소단백질의 전반적인 구조에 영향을 미친다는 것을 추론할 수 있다. 이러한 결과는 효소 단백질의 촉매활성에 histidine, tyrosine 및 arginine 잔기가 중요한 역할을 담당하는 것을 의미한다.

In this study, we constructed a model of an area where the production and production amount of wild vegetables which are designated as short term income forest products for the whole country are self-sufficient for the representative Eastern Braken fern(Pteridium aquilinum)and Edible aster(Aster scaber). The difference between the existing cultivation site and the model result was examined, and the distribution of the cultivable area was simulated according to the near future climate change by the 2050s. The degree of agreement between the cultivated area and the actual native area was very low at 14.5% for Eastern Braken fern and 12.9% for Edible aster. Using the Maxent model, which has already been proven by many research examples, the cultivation maps through the model can guarantee statistical accuracy by considering many variables. To analyze future location changes, the RCP 4.5 scenario and the RCP 8.5 scenario were applie Edible aster d to predict potential future cultivable areas and compare them to the present. There was no decrease in the cultivable area due to climate change nationwide. However, in the RCP 8.5 scenario for Eastern Braken fern and the RCP 4.5 scenario for Edible aster, declining areas such as Gangwon-do, Jeollabuk-do and Gyeongsangbuk-do showed prominence according to the scenarios. The result of this study suggests that various models can be used for the production of short-term forest productivity maps and it will be used as a climate change impact assessment data for competitive forest products considering the influence of future climate change.

Sustainable habitats play a significant role in determining the survival and habitat preservation of endangered species. To conserve the endangered species Iris dichotoma Pall. and its habitat in Taeanhaean National Park, we collected seeds from a natural population and germinated and propagated them in a greenhouse. In 2019, the propagated individuals of I. dichotoma were transplanted at two study sites in Taeanhaean National Park. After conservation translocation, annual monitoring was conducted from 2020 to 2022, and factors related to the survival and growth of I. dichotoma (clonal propagation rate [%], the flowering rate [%], the population density [individual/m²], the maximum leaf bundle length [height; cm], the maximum leaf bundle width [cm], and the pedicel length [cm]) were measured. According to the results of the monitoring of the flowering and fruiting periods for three years after transplantation, 82.4% of individuals in total were found to have survived. During 2020 to 2022, the mean population density (individual/m²) increased from 0.36 to 0.42 and the size of the leaf bundle length and the width both decreased compared to the corresponding figures in 2019 (p < 0.05). According to the findings here, the transplanted population of I. dichotoma is considered to have adapted successfully to its new site in Taeanhaean National Park.

Recently, enhanced in situ bioremediation using slow substrate release techniques has been actively researched for managing TCE-contaminated groundwater. This study conducted a lab-scale batch reactor experiment to evaluate the feasibility of natural attenuation for TCE dechlorination using microsized corn-oil droplet (MOD) as an activator considering the following three factors: 1) TCE dechlorination in the presence or absence of MOD; 2) TCE dechlorination in the presence or absence of inactivator of native microbial activity; and 3) MOD concentration effects on TCE dechlorination. Batch reactors were constructed using site groundwater and soil in which Dehalococcoides bacteria were present. Without MOD, TCE was decomposed into dichloroethylene (DCE). However, other by-products of TCE dechlorination were not detected. With MOD, DCE, vinyl chloride (VC), and ethylene (ETH) were sequentially observed. This result confirmed that MOD effectively supplied electrons to complete dechlorination of TCE to ETH. However, when an excess of MOD was provided, it formed unfavorable conditions for anaerobic digestion because dechlorination reaction did not proceed while propionic acid was accumulated after DCE was generated. Therefore, if an appropriate amount of MOD is supplied, MOD can be effectively used as a natural reduction activator to promote biodegradation in an aquifer contaminated by TCE.

전 세계적으로 붉은귀거북(Trachemys scripta elegans)은 새로운 지역으로 유입되어 토착 생태계를 교란하는 대표적인 외래생물이다. 국내에는 1970년대부터 방생과 애완의 목적으로 수입되었으며, 현재 남한 전역에 걸쳐 발견되고 있다. 또한 자연적인 번식과 확산이 지속적으로 관찰되고 있는 실정이다. 본 연구에는 제주도 지역에서 발견되는 붉은귀거북을 대상으로 자연적인 번식에 영향을 미치는 환경적인 요소를 파악하고자 하였다. 먼저, 2012년부터 2017년까지 제주도 내 붉은귀거북의 분포를 조사하였다. 붉은귀거북의 번식이 확인되는 지역과 그렇지 않는 지역을 대상으로 주변의 토지 피복과 서식지 기후의 차이를 비교하였다. 연구 결과, 붉은귀거북은 선행 연구에서 기록한 15개 지역에서 증가한 38개 지점에서 발견되었다. 그 중 번식 확인된 지역은 21개, 단순히 서식만 확인된 지역은 17개 지역이었다. 붉은귀거북의 전체 그리고 성체만의 개체수는 번식지가 유의미하게 많았다(P<0.001). 붉은귀거북의 번식이 이루어지는 서식지 주변의 토지 피복의 경우, 밭의 비율이 뚜렷하게 높았지만(P<0.001), 비번식지에서는 뚜렷한 차이가 나타나지 않았다(P>0.05). 한편, 붉은귀거북의 번식지와 비번식지 간의 기후적인 차이는 뚜렷하게 나타나지 않았으며(P>0.05), 어떠한 기후 요소도 붉은귀거북의 번식과 관련되지 않았다(P>0.05). 본 연구의 결과를 통해 제주도 내에서는 붉은귀거북의 번식에는 서식지 주변의 토지 피복 즉 번식 가능한 환경의 존재가 중요하다는 것을 확인하였다. 따라서 붉은귀거북이 발견되는 서식지의 주변 환경을 우선적으로 파악하는 것은 번식과 확산을 제어를 위한 효과적인 방법이 될 것이다.
