Bacteriocin J105 is a proteinaceous inhibitory substance produced by Latococcus latis subsp. lactis j105 isolated from Kimchi. Bacteriocin J105 was purified to homogeneity by the pH-dependent adsorption-desorption method and reverse-phase HPLC from the culture broth of Lactococcus lactis subsp. lactis J105. Purification of bacteriocin J105 resulted in a 1.47-fold increase in the specific activity and the recovery was 1.5%. Its molecular mass measured by the electrophoretic pattern in the sodium, dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel was about 3.4 kDa. It was stable at $121^{\circ}C$ for 15 min at pH between 2 and 4. However, at pH above 5, bacteriocin was rapidly inactivated. Twenty-one residues from the N-terminal portion of bacteriocin J105 were sequenced using sequence analysis of lantibiotics. Bacteriocin J105 showed significant homology with known nisin A from lactic acid bacteria.

A bacterial strain PH-4, which produces an enzyme catalyzing the degradation of crosslinked poly(${\gamma}$-glutamic acid) hydrogels, was isolated and identified as a Flavobacterium sp. The enzyme was obtained by the sonication of the bacterial cells preincubated in a Bouillon medium with shaking, without adding of poly(${\gamma}$-glutamic acid) as an inducer. The products of the hydrogel degraded by the crude enzyme agreed closely with the depolymerized materials in SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis using methylene blue staining, and with a glutamic acid monomer on thin-layer chromatography, thereby suggesting that strain PH-4 produced a kind of exohydrolase.

Various materials including sodium alginate, k-carrageenan, collagen and polyacrylamide were studied in order to maintain the stability of bioluminescence of Photobacterium for the monitoring of volatile toxic substances. Kinetic parameters of specific rate($\mu$), and gamma(${\gamma}$) value were determined for the relationship between bioluminescence of immobilized P. phosphoreum and toxic substances. The bioluminescence intensity was found to be proportional to the concentration of toxic substances and the free cells were shown to be more sensitive than immobilized cells when volatile substances were exposed to the cells. Bioluminescence increased slightly after several minutes, which was due to the volatility of toxic compounds. Furthermore, P. phosphoreum immobilized on strontium alginate was better than cells immobilized on sodium alginate for the response to substances used.

For the adsorption of polyelectrolyte at the surface of polyacrylamide gel particle, preferential adsorption of the large polyelectrolyte such as DNA is governed by the surface area of an adsorbent. The adsorption equilibrium constant can be varied by surface geometry of porous polymer, and it can be described as a function of ionic strength and surface area. Physical parameters affecting the adsorption were estimated using the theoretical governing equation of polyelectrolyte which electrophoretically moved along the column, and geometrical surface area was estimated by Waldman-Mayer's physical model. The separation of polyelectrolytes was studied using the physical parameters estimated by ionic strength and surface geometry.

N-substituted acrylamide hydrogel is reported to have the feature of bing transparent and sensitive enough to response to a temperature stimulus below the temperature of phase transition. Especially at the near of 35 C it becomes shrunk and opaque very quickly. It has also the characteristic of reversing swelling and shrinking. The experiment showed that it is possible to produce a functional gel of super water absorption with the process of free radical polymerizing PVA(polyvinylalcohol) and PAA(polyacrylamide), and crosslinking. The ratio of shrinking and swelling caused by copolymerization rises 10% to 80% at the each temperature of 20 C, 30 C, 40 C, respectively. Phase transition temperature of this gel by copolymerization is50 C while that of ordinary N-substituted acrylamides is between 32~35 C. This temperature reaches the rearing limit of animals and plants so that volumetric transition polymer gel can be ulilized in varying fields such as agriculture/gardening which are water-using field, on-off switch sensing temperature and volumetric variation, processing of liquid wastes and civil engineering works, architecture and electronics. We have no doubt that this material will be the high-functional resin in the hi-tech age of the near future.

Edestin, a major hempseed storage protein from Cheungsam, was isolated to apparent homogeneity by acid precipitation and gel filtration chromatography. The native molecular weight of purified edestin was approximately 300 kDa by Sephacryl S-300 gel filtration. Upon adding 2-mercaptoethanol, the isolated edestin of 56.7 kDa on the non-reduced sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel was converted into subunits, suggesting that the protein might be composed of subunits linked by disulfide bond. Cheungsam edestin was rich in essential amino acids and it has 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) free radical scavenging activity. The results suggest that Cheungsam edestin might be utilized as a superior antioxidative nutrient.

An agar-degrading bacterium was isolated from the guts of spiny turban shells. It was identified as a Pseudoalteromonas species and named Pseudoalteromonas sp. JYBCL 1. The viscosity of the inoculated agar medium decreased by more than 60% after 20 h cultivation. The agarase produced by the isolate had optimal activities at $35^{\circ}C$ and pH 7. The enzyme had extremely strong resistance to ionic stress compared with other known agarases. Its molecular mass was estimated at about 60 kDa by sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The agarase could saccharify Gelidium amansii directly, with an efficiency about half that compared with agar saccharification.

Overproduction of Escherichia coli thiol peroxidase in the periplasmic space was achieved by locating the appropriate gene on a downstream region of the strong T7 promoter. E. coli strain BL21 carrying the recombinant plasmid pSK-TPX was induced by IPTG, lysed, and analyzed by SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. A large amount of the overexpressed thiol peroxidase was located in the periplasmic space. A homogeneous thiol peroxidase was obtained from E. coli osmotic shock fluid by simple one-step gel permeation chromatography.

A strain of alkalophilic Bacillus sp. YS-309 capable of producing large amount of $\beta$-galactosidase has been isolated from soil sample. Intracellular $\beta$-galactosidase was purified 6.9 folds by procedures including ammonium sulfate precipitation, DEAE-cellulose chromatography, gel-filtration, DEAE-Sephadex A-50 chromatography with over-all yield of 17.8%. The molecular weight of native enzyme was 205, 000 by HPLC, and SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis showed that the enzyme consisted of 4 identical subunits with a molecular weight of 56, 000.
