This study is manufacturing method and analysis of feasibility about collagen peptide from fish scale. This is processed by enzyme hydrolysis, isolating and refining etc. The results of analysis of nutritional composition showed protein content of collagen peptide. In the analysis of constitutive amino acids, the ratio of contents of hydroxyproline and glycine, the characteristics of collagen peptides appeared similar and the contents of glutamic acid and aspartic acid which are involved in protein metabolism. As a result of measurement of total polyphenol content and total flavonoid, it showed that collagen peptide had more contents generally, and the effect of bioactivity of pig-skin collagen peptide appeared higher although different kinds of scale collagen peptide showed a little DPPH radical scavenging ability, total antioxidant capacity by ABTS, ACE inhibitory.

The present study was carried out to investigate the effects of magnesium supplement levels and periods on lipid metabolism in male Sprague-Dawley rats given low protein and magnesium deficient diets. The effect of magnesium supplement levels and periods on lipid metabolism in rats given a low protein and magnesium deficient diet for 2 weeks were investigated. Serum total lipid and triglyceride contents were significantly lower in magnesium supplement group compared with magnesium deficient group. Serum HDL-cholesterol/total cholesterol ratio was significantly increased as magnesium supplement level was increased. Liver total lipid, triglyceride, total cholesterol and phospholipid contents were significantly lower in magnesium supplement group than those in magnesium deficient group. Serum ALP, GOT and GPT activities were significantly decreased in magnesium supplement group compared with magnesium deficient group. In summary, the effect of magnesium supplement on lipid metabolism and enzyme activities were significant and we can see that magnesium supplement level propered to be requirement level(400 mg/kg diet)in the other cases except serum lipid contents.

Biochemical studies such as growth rate, blood cholesterol and ascorbic acid contents in various organs of albino male rats were studied both in the instant food (Ramyon) and rice diet fed groups. The conclusion was as the followings: 1) Either single ramyon or rice fed rats were not shown growth rate properly. In supplementation of 10% or 20% protein on ramyon, growth rate was a little increased than that of the rice diet group. 2) No essential difference of vitamin C contents in various organs was observed between ramyon and rice diet fed rats. Serum vitamin C level of the rice diet group was shown higher than that of the ramyon group. 3) Blood cholesterol level of ramyon fed rats was higher than that of the rice diet group, whether single or protein supplemented diet was fed. 4) Liver lipid contents showed higher in the rice diet group than in the instant ramyon group.

Physicochemival properties of ginseng roasted at 170 to $250^{\circ}C$ were investigated. Soluble solid contents in roast ginseng increased until $200^{\circ}C$, but decreased at higher temperature than $200^{\circ}C$. Contents of reducing sugar and protein were decreased and pH values were dropped, while optical density, acidic polysaccharide contents, precursor of brown pigments and hydrogen donating activities by DPPH were increased according to increasing in roast temperatures. The color distribution of roast ginseng expressed as Hunter L, a and b values demonstrated that lower L values and higher a values were observed according to higher temperature, but b values were almost not changed.

A 44-day metabolic study was conducted to compare the effects of soy protein and meat protein on N, Ca, P, and Mg metabolism in young Korean males. Meat protein diet(MPD) and soy protin diet(SPD) were provided for 3 weeks each. For MPD, meat protein Supplied 50.3% of total protein and mean daily suplies of Ca, P, and Mg were 33.28mg, 1013.01mg, 226.81mg respectively. For SPD, soy protein supplied 51.8% of total protein and mean contents of Ca, P and Mg were 737.86mg, 1261.76mg, and 451.3mg. Mean daily fecal and urinary excretions of Ca were 350.6mg and 113.3mg for MPD and 515.0mg and 118.3mg for SPD. Apparent absorption rates in MPD and SPD were 4.2mg in MPD and 700.4mg and 475.1mg SPD. Apparent absorption rates were 65.6% in MPD and 44.5% in SPD(p<0.01). For Mg, fecal and urinary excretions were 144.8mg and 81.2mg in MPD and 292.4mg and 65.5mg in SPD. Apparent absorption rates were 37.5% in MPD and 35.2% in SPD. The correlations between urinary Ca, P, and their balance were significant (p<0.001) in MPD, but not in SPD. Urinary Ca was significantly correlated with urinary N, P, Mg(p<0.001) in MPD, but not in SPD. From these results, meat protein seems to increase the excretions of major minerals compared to soy protein.

The function of a protein is closely co-related with its subcellular location(s). Given a protein sequence, therefore, how to determine its subcellular location is a vitally important problem. We have developed a new prediction method for protein subcellular location(s), which is based on n-gram feature extraction and k-nearest neighbor (kNN) classification algorithm. It classifies a protein sequence to one or more subcellular compartments based on the locations of top k sequences which show the highest similarity weights against the input sequence. The similarity weight is a kind of similarity measure which is determined by comparing n-gram features between two sequences. Currently our method extract penta-grams as features of protein sequences, computes scores of the potential localization site(s) using kNN algorithm, and finally presents the locations and their associated scores. We constructed a large-scale data set of protein sequences with known subcellular locations from the SWISS-PROT database. This data set contains 51,885 entries with one or more known subcellular locations. Our method show very high prediction precision of about 93% for this data set, and compared with other method, it also showed comparable prediction improvement for a test collection used in a previous work.

Utilization of soluble protein recovered from surimi wastewater using calcium powder of cuttle bone were examined. The crude ash content of the heat-induced surimi gel was increased linearly by increasing substitution ratio of recovered protein-ATC toward commercial surimi. Moisture (approximately $76\%$) and lipid $(0.2\%)$ contents were not change, but their protein contents were decreased 15.7 to $14.3\%$ depend on increasing of substitution ratio. The white index of the heat-induced surimi gel by color meter was increased up to $10\%$ of substitution ratio. There were no difference between $0\%\;and\;5\%$ substituted surimi gel in the gel strength. The sensory score on white index and texture of the heat-induced surimi gel did not change in 0 to $10\%$ as a substitution ratio of recovered protein-ATC toward commercial surimi, while decreased in more $15\%.$ The optimal substitution ratio of recovered protein-ATC as a bulking agent was $10\%.$ The heat-induced surimi gel prepared with $10\%$ substitution of recovered protein-ATC was similar to the content and composition of total amino. acids, and superior to calcium content and the ratio of calcium and phosphorus toward those of commercial surimi.

Cell structure is based on proteins. Since the antibody is proteous substance, the continous low protein feeding decreases the resistance of host against pathogenic agents. The present study was designed to investigate the infectivity of protozoa to rats which were fed with variously prescribed diets. Experimental group was divided into 4 groups according to the level of casein in the diet, group I: casein 0%, group II: casein 5%, group III: casein 15%, group IV: casein 30%. Each animal was fed for 5 weeks followed by inoculation of protozoa in cecum and sacrified each 1 week later of the infection. Each diet group, non infected with protozoa was recognized as the control. Result are summerized as follows : 1. All the rats of group I died in 2∼4 weeks and 2 of 12 rats in group II were also died in the period. 2. The growth rate and FER were high in group III and IV compared with group II. Therefore low protein feeding decrease growth and feed efficaly ratio(FER). 3. The pH of caecal contents between the infected group and control showed no difference, but the values of group III and IV were higher than the group II. Low pH of the caecal contents provides a suitable condition for determining their susceptibility to Entameoeba histolytical trophozoite. 4. Amounts of serum total protein in group II, III and IV showed no significant difference with the control and infected group, but amounts in group III and IV were higher than the group II. Therefore, continuous low protein feeding decrease serum total protein. 5. Albumin, ${\alpha}$1, gloulin, ${\alpha}$2 globulin, ${\beta}$ globulin, ${\gamma}$ gloulin of group III and IV were all high to compare than the group II. Albumins of group III and IV of control was higher than infected group, but there was no difference in ${\gamma}$ globulin between the infected and control group.
