The contents of free amino acid in cabbage cultivars originated from China and Korea were measured to determine the quality for taste and nutrition. The experimental variables were season (spring-sowing and fall-sowing), leaf position (inside and outside), and the cabbage color (green and red). Eighteen free amino acids were detected at the range of 0-38 mg/g dry weight. The most abundant amino acid was serine(0-128 mg/g). Alanine, aspartate, glutamate, asparagine, histidine, and proline were relatively rich at 2-12 mg/g dry weight. Glycine were significantly increased in spring-sowing cabbages by 2-fold but proline was reversely decreased by 7-fold. The inside parts of cabbages contained significantly more alanine, glutamate, glycine, isoleucine, serine, and valine than the outside ones. The higher contents of isolecuine, leucine, proline, and valine were observed in the red cabbages than the green ones. The significant cross effects of season-color and position-color were also observed, indicating the red and the green cabbages were differently affected by season and tissue position.

Coexistence of paroxysmal kinesigenic dyskinesia (PKD) with benign infantile convulsion (BIC) and centrotemporal spikes (CTS) is very rare. A 10-year-old girl presented with a 3-year history of frequent attacks of staggering while laughing and of suddenly collapsing while walking. Interictal electroencephalogram (EEG) revealed bilateral CTS, but no changes in EEG were observed during movement. The patient's medical history showed afebrile seizures 6 months after birth, while the family history showed that the patient's mother and relatives on the mother's side had similar dyskinesia. Genetic testing demonstrated that the patient had a heterozygous mutation, c.649_650insC, in the PRRT2 gene. To our knowledge, this constitutes only the second report of a patient with PKD, BIC, CTS, and a PRRT2 mutation.

Medicinal mushrooms, including Cordyceps militaris, have received attention in Korea because of their biological activities. In the fruiting body and in corpus of C. militaris, the total free amino acid content was 69.32 mg/g and 14.03 mg/g, respectively. In the fruiting body, the most abundant amino acids were lysine, glutamic acid, proline and threonine. The fruiting body was rich in unsaturated fatty acids, which comprised about 70% of the total fatty acids. The most abundant unsaturated acid was linoleic acid. There were differences in adenosine and cordycepin contents between the fruiting body and the corpus. The adenosine concentration was 0.18% in the fruiting body and 0.06% in the corpus, and the cordycepin concentration was 0.97% in the fruiting body and 0.36% in the corpus.

TP53 is the mostly commonly mutated gene in many cancers and the P53 tumor suppressor protein is involved in multiple cellular processes, including transcription, DNA repair, genomic stability, senescence, cell cycle control and apoptosis. A common single nucleotide polymorphism located within the proline rich region of TP53 gene at codon 72 in exon 4 encodes either proline or arginine. TP53 Arg 72 is more active than TP53 Pro 72 in inducing apoptosis. The aim of this study was to understand the association of the 72 codon polymorphism with acute leukemia development and prognosis. A total of 288 acute leukemia cases comprising 147 acute lymphocytic leukemia (ALL) and 141 acute myeloid leukemia (AML), as well as 245 controls were recruited for analysis of the TP53 72 polymorphism using PCR-RFLP method. Significant association of homozygous arginine genotype with AML was observed (${\chi}^2$- 133.53; df-2, p < 0.001. When data were analyzed with respect to clinical variables, elevation in mean WBC, blast %, LDH levels and slight reduction in DFS in ALL cases with the arginine genotype was observed. In contrast, AML patients with Pro/Pro had elevated WBC, Blast%, LDH levels with slightly reduced DFS. Our study indicates that Arg/Arg genotype might confer increased risk to development of acute myeloid leukemia.

The conformational transition of poly(L-proline) (PLP), Form Ⅱ → Form Ⅰ and the intermolecular aggregation of the product, Form Ⅰ, during and after the transition in water-propanol (1:7, 1:9, 1:15.7, and 1:29 v/v) were studied. For the study, the viscosity change and excess light scattering intensity were measured in the course of the transition which was determined by the Form Ⅰ fraction, fI of the sample solution. For the PLP sample of molecular weight Mv=31,000 the experimental results show that the reaction course is roughly divided into three regions: in the first region [fI=0.27 to 0.40 (- [α]D=400 to 330)], the conformational change of Form Ⅱ → Form Ⅰ occurs with decrease of viscosity, in the second region [fI=0.40 to 0.80 (- [α]D=330 to 120)], a partial side-by-side (p-S-S) type aggregation in which Form Ⅰ blocks interact with each other, which induces the increase of viscosity, starts to occur, and in the third region [fI=0.80 to 1.00 (- [α]D=120 to 15)], a side-by-side type (raft like) aggregation of Form Ⅰ or an end-to-end (E-E) type aggregation occurs according to the solvent situation, i.e., in a water-rich medium [water-propanol (1:9 or 1:7 v/v)], the (S-S) type aggregation with a gross decrease in viscosity occurs while in a water-poor medium [water-propanol (1:29 or 1:15.7 v/v), the (E-E) type aggregation with a large increase in viscosity occurs. The (S-S) type aggregation was promoted at high temperatures. Based on the structure of PLP, a reasonable mechanism for the (p-S-S) and (S-S) aggregation which occurs with the transition of Form Ⅱ → Form Ⅰ is considered. The suggested mechanism was also supported by the result of chain length effect of PLP for the aggregation.

본 연구의 목적은 다양한 교정용 브라켓의 표면에 형성되는 타액성 피막의 조성을 확인하고, 전타액, 악하선타액 및 이 하선타액에서 유래하는 타액성 피막의 성분을 비교하는 것이다. 네 가지 서로 다른 종류의 교정용 브라켓을 본 연구에 사용하였다. 이들은 $022{\times}028$ Roth Prescription의 상악 소구치 브라켓으로 조성은 다음과 같다: 스테인레스 스틸, 단결정 사파이어, 다결정 알루미나 및 플라스틱 브라켓. 교정용 브라켓을 각각 전타액, 이하선타액 및 악하선타액에 2시간 배양하여 타액성 피막을 형성시켰다 브라켓 피막의 타액성분은 sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, Western transfer method 및 면역검출법을 통해 확인하였다. 이 결과 low-molecular weight salivary mucin, ${\alpha}-amylase$, secretory IgA (sIgA), acidic proline-rich proteins, cystatins 등이 모든 브라켓의 타액성 피막에 존재하였으며, 치아우식증의 원인균인 Streptococcus mutans의 부착을 촉진시키는 타액단백질인 high-molecular weight mucin은 어떤 브라켓에도 부착하지 않았다. 그러나, 비록 동일한 타액단백질이 모든 브라켓에서 발견되었지만, 타액단백질 부착 양상은 타액의 종류 및 브라켓의 종류에 따라 양적 및 질적으로 다르게 나타났다. 특히 sIgA는 이하선타액에서 유래한 브라켓 피막에 더 많이 부착하였고, cystatins의 경우는 플라스틱 브라켓에서 유래한 브라켓 피막에 더 많이 존재하였다 본 연구는 다양한 타액단백질이 교정용 브라켓에 부착하며, 타액단백질이 타액의 출처 및 브라켓의 종류에 따라 교정용 브라켓의 표면에 선택적으로 부착함을 나타내었다.
