It has been known that Ganoderma lucidum and Lentinus edodes have anticancer activity and immune enhancing activity. These two mushrooms were grown in liquid culture and harvested. From these mycelia, DNA was isolated and EtBr-CsCl density gradient ultracentrifugation was performed to purify it further. Then mitochondrial DNA was isolated by bisbenzimide-CsCl density ultracentrifugaton. Mitochondrial DNA of Ganoderma lucidum was digested by restriction enzymes, EcoR I, Hind Ⅲ, and Pst I, then electrophoresed. It showed 12, 22, 4 fragments. Mitochondrial DNA of Lentinus edodes was digested by EcoR I. Electric pattern showed 6 fragments. 4 fragments had appeared by Pst 1 digested mitochondrial DNA. Hind ill couldn't digest mitochondrial DNA of Lentinus edodes. Mitochondrial DNA of fusants was isolated to compare to those of parents. The results showed that fusant P₂S₄has new, recombined mitochondrial DNA. But P₂S₄had the same DNA that Ganoderma lucidum had.

한국에 분포하고 있는 개구리 속에 대한 염기서열을 결정하고 상호 비교하여 종간 유전적 변이 정도를 밝히고자 한국산 개구리 속 6종과 일본산 개구리 속 1종에 대한 미토콘드리아 165 rDNA를 분석하였으며, Gene-bank에 수록된 일본산 산개구리류 3종도 함께 비교 분석하여 총 437 bp의 염기서열을 결정하였다. 산개구리류 7종에 대한 similarity는 91.3∼97.3％이며, 참개구리류는 96.1∼97.3％로 나타났다. 또한, 참개구리류와 옴개구리류의 genetic distance가 참개구리류와 산개구리류보다 더 가깝게 나타났다. Neighbor-joining분석에서 참개구리류와 산개구리류로 2개의 cluster를 형성하였는데, 이 중산개구리류는 총 3개의 subcluster를 형성하였다. 또한, 참개구리는 내륙지방과 도서지방에 분포하는 집단이 각각 나눠지는 것은 지리적 격리에 의한 결과라고 사료된다. Maximum-likelihood분석도 NJ 분석 결과와 매우 유사하게 나타났으나 옴개구리(R. rugosa)는 NJ와 ML분석에서 서로 상반된 결과를 나타냈다. 이는 한국산 옴 개구리가 남부지역과 기타 지역에서 유전적 차이가 크게 나타나며, 일본 집단과 외부 특징에서 차이를 보이는 등 문제점을 가지고 있기 때문에 보다 다양한 연구가 이루어져야 올바른 해석 이 가능하리라 판단된다.

메타바코딩을 이용한 환경 DNA 분석은 검출 감도가 높아 어류의 생물다양성 평가 및 멸종위기종의 검출에 유용한 기술이다. 이번 연구는 메타바코딩을 이용해 우리나라 담수어류를 대상으로 높은 검출 효율을 보일 수 있는 적합한 분석방법을 확인하기 위해 4가지 분석조건별, 즉 필터(cellulose nitrate filter, glass fiber filter), 추출 키트(DNeasy^® Blood & Tissue Kit, DNeasy^® PowerWater Kit), 프라이머 조합(12S rDNA, 16S rDNA) 그리고 PCR 방법(conventional PCR, touchdown PCR)로 나타나는 Operational Taxonomic Units(OTUs) 수와 종 조성을 비교하였다. Glass fiber filter와 DNeasy^® Tissue & Blood Kit를 이용해 추출한 시료는 12S rDNA와 16S rDNA 프라이머 조합에서 담수어류 OTUs가 가장 많이 검출되었다. 모든 분석조건 중 프라이머 조합에서만 조기어강(Class Actinopterygii) 평균 OTUs 수에서 통계적으로 유의한 차이를 보였고(Non-parametric Wilcoxon Signed Ranks Test, p=0.005), 담수어류 평균 OTUs 수는 유의하지 않았다. 종 조성 비교 결과 역시 프라이머 조합에서 유의한 차이를 보였고(PERMANOVA, Pseudo-F=6.9489, p=0.006), 나머지 분석조건에서는 유의한 차이를 보이지 않았다. NMDS 분석 결과 종 조성은 유사도 65% 기준에서 프라이머 조합에 따라 묶였고, 16S rDNA 프라이머 세트는 주로 멸종위기종인 모래주사(Microphysogobio koreensis), 꼬치동자개(Pseudogobio brevicorpus)가 기여하였고, 12S rDNA 프라이머 세트는 주로 일반종인 피라미(Zacco platypus), 꺽지(Coreoperca herzi) 등이 기여한 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구는 국내 하천에서 채취한 시료에 대한 메타바코딩을 이용한 종 다양성 분석의 기초정보를 제공한다.

AfsR2 과발현 S. lividans TK21을 이용하여 DNA microarray를 수행하였다. 그 결과, phosphate starvation과 관련 있는 42개의 유전자들이 up-regulated 되었으며, 특히 SCO4139 (pstB, phosphate ABC transport system ATP-binding protein)와 SCO4142 (pstS, phosphate-binding protein precursor)는 afsR2가 phosphate와 같은 nutrient starvation에 적극적으로 관여한다는 것을 나타내며, SCO4228 (putative phosphate transport system regulatory protein)은 기존에 수행되었던 2D-electrophoresis 연구나 afsS null S. coelicolor를 이용한 DNA microarray 연구에서도 공통적으로 보고되었던 유전자로서 phosphate lilitation에 대한 afsR2의 효과가 지속적으로 검증되고 있음을 뜻한다. 또한 afsR2 과발현을 통해서 sigma factor인 SCO2954 (sigL)과 SCO5147 (sigE)의 발현이 유도되었으며 두 유전자의 구조적인 특징을 고려해 보았을 때 afsR2가 RNA polymerase와의 linker로서의 역할을 추측해 볼 수 있다. 뿐만 아니라 whi 관련 유전자들의 발현 또한 afsR2에 의해 증가되었다. 이는 afsR2가 단순히 2차 대사물질 생합성 조절에만 관여하는 것이 아니라 형태적 분화에 작용함으로써 최종적으로 여러 2차 대사물질의 합성을 유도한다고 말할 수 있다. 이러한 결과들을 토대로 afsR2가 기존에 항생제 생합성에만 관여하는 global regulatory 조절인자가 아닌 방선균이 stationary phase로 전환되는 시점에서 형태적 분화에 영향을 미치고 phosphate limitation stress를 줄여주는 2차 대사의 key-factor regulatory 유전자임을 알 수 있다.

To investigate the phylogeny of Patellogastropoda, the complete 18S rDNA sequences of nine patellogastropod limpets Cymbula canescens (Gmelin, 1791), Helcion dunkeri (Krauss, 1848), Patella rustica Linnaeus, 1758, Cellana toreuma (Reeve, 1855), Cellana nigrolineata (Reeve, 1854), Nacella magellanica Gmelin, 1791, Nipponacmea concinna (Lischke, 1870), Niveotectura pallida (Gould, 1859), and Lottia dorsuosa Gould, 1859 were determined. These sequences were then analyzed along with the published 18S rDNA sequences of 35 gastropods, one bivalve, and one chiton species. Phylogenetic trees were constructed by maximum parsimony, maximum likelihood, and Bayesian inference. The results of our 18S rDNA sequence analysis strongly support the monophyly of Patellogastropoda and the existence of three subgroups. Of these, two subgroups, the Patelloidea and Acmaeoidea, are closely related, with branching patterns that can be summarized as [(Cymbula + Helcion) + Patella] and [(Nipponacmea + Lottia) + Niveotectura]. The remaining subgroup, Nacelloidea, emerges as basal and paraphyletic, while its genus Cellana is monophyletic. Our analysis also indicates that the Patellogastropoda have a sister relationship with the order Cocculiniformia within the Gastropoda.

For the phylogenetic study of the genus Trichaptum, nuclear ribosomal DNA sequences from eight strains of four Trichaptium species were examined. Phylogenetic trees were constructed using molecular data on 18 rDNA and 5.8S rDNA and thei ITSs. Parsimony analyses of the Trichaptum species showed that T. biforme and T. laricinum made a monophyletic group respectively, suggesting that each species is phylogenetically independent. However, T. abietum represented a polyphyletic group and T. fusco-violaceum formed a polytomous group, suggesting that these species could be in the process of evolutionary differentiation. Examination of base substitutions of the 18S rRNA gene reveals that the C-T transition is most predominant and that there is a stronger transition bias between closely related organisms rather than between distantly related ones.

Partial sequence comparisons of mitochondrial small subunit rDNA (mt SSU rDNA) were used to examine taxonomic and evolutionary relationships among seven Penicillium species : two monoverticillate species, two biverticillate species, and three terverticillate species. Amplified fragments of mt SSU rDNA highly varied among seven species in size, suggesting the existence of multiple insertions or deletions in the region. A phylogengtic tree was constructed by exhaustive search of parsimony analysis. The phylogenetic tree distinguished two statistically supported monophyletic groups, one for two monoverticillate species and the other for three terverticillate species and ont biverticillate species, P. vulpinum. The phylogenetic relationship of P. waksmanii, the biverticillate species, was not clear.

Oxytricha multilineata, Mixophrya pantanalensis pantanalensis, and Caudiurostyla sinensis were isolated from soil samples collected from Cheongju-si and Yeoju-si, confirmed as new to South Korea. Oxytricha multilineata was distinguished from other congeners by seven dorsal kineties and dorsal bristles about 15 ㎛ long. Mixophrya pantanalensis pantanalensis was characterized by five to seven lithosomes and six dorsal kineties. Caudiurostyla sinensis was characterized by colorless cortical granules present, 10-14 midventral pairs, 7-9 left and 6-9 right marginal rows and four or five dorsal kineties. We determined the ribosomal DNA sequences (including 18S rDNA, ITS1, 5.8S rDNA, ITS2, and partial 28S rDNA) from above three species. And the genetic distances were compared with their congeners.

Multiplex PCR-based short tandem repeat (STR) analysis is considered as a good tool for monitoring bone marrow engraftment after sex-mismatched allogeneic transplantation and provides a sensitive and accurate assessment of the contribution of both donor and/or recipient cells in post-transplantation specimens. Forensic STR analysis and quantitative real time PCR are used to determine the proportion of donor versus recipient each contained within the total DNA. The STR markers were co-amplified in a single reaction by using commercial $PowerPlex^{(R)}$ 16 system and $AmpFISTR^{(R)}$ $Identifiler^{(R)}$ / $Yfiler^{(R)}$ PCR amplification kits. Separation of the PCR products and fluorescence detection were performed by ABI $PRIS^{(R)}$ 3100 Genetic Analyzer with capillary electrophoresis. The $GeneMapper^{TM}$ ID software were used for size calling and analysis of STR profiles. Extracted DNA was quantified by the $Quantifiler^{TM}$ Human DNA / Y Human Male DNA Quantification Kit The intent of this study was to analyze the ratio of donor versus recipient cells in the post-transplant peripheral blood, spleen, lung and kidney specimens. Specimens were taken from the traffic accident male victim who had been engrafted from bone marrow female donor. Blood and spleen specimens displayed female donor DNA profile. Kidney specimen showed male recipient DNA profile. Interestingly, lung tissue showed mixed profiles. The findings of this study indicate that the forensic STR analysis using fluorescence labeling PCR combined with capillary electrophoresis is quick and reliable enough to assess the ratio of donor versus recipient cells and to monitor the mixed chimeric patterns.

Nuclear 18S ribosomal RNA gene (185 rDNA) from the aquaculturable seaweed Porphya tenera (Bangiales, Rhodophyta) was amplified using the polymerase chain reaction and its sequence was analysed. Complete 185 rDNA has an 1,822 bp exon and a 510 bp intron. The G+C contents of exon and intron were $48.68\%\;and\;54,90\%,$ respectively. The exon sequence showed $99.6\%$ homology to the GebBank accession number AB029880 of the Japanese P. tenera. The intron region that is inserted upstream between 568 and 1,079 showed $43.6\%$ homology to the AB029880.
