Serratia marecescens RH1 isolated from soil samples produced large amount of extracellular proteases. One of the genes encoding an extracellular protease form S. marcescens RH1 was cloned in Escherichia coli by shot gun cloning method. The cloned protease, SSP, was stably expressed by its own promoter and excreted into the extracellular medium from E. coli host (ORF) of 3.135 nucleotides corresponding to 1.045 amino acids (112 kDa). The nucleotide and deduced amino acid sequence of SSP showed high overall homology (88%) to one of the S. marcescens protease (27), but low homology to other serine protease families. The optimal pH and temperature of the enzyme were pH 9.0 and 45.deg.C respectively. The activity of protease was inhibited by phenylmethylsulfonyl fluoride (PMSF), which suggests that the enzyme is a serine protease.

DNA fragment assembly is a major concem in shot-gun DNA sequencing project. It is to reconstruct a consensus DNA sequence from a collection of random oritented fragments. We developed a computer program that is useful for DNA fragment assembly. Inputs to the program are DNA fragment sequences including IUB-IUPAC bases. The program produces the most probable reconstruction ot the original DNA sequence as a text format or a PostScript format. The program consists of four phases: the first phase quickly eliminates fragment pairs that can not possibly overlap. In the second phase, the quality of overlap between each pair is calculated to a score. In the third phase, overlap pairs are sorted by their scores and consistency of the overlaps is checked. The last phase determines consensus sequences and displays them. The performance of fragment assembly program was tested on a set of DNA fragment sequences which were generated from long DNA sequences of GenBank by a fragmentation program.

In this study, protein domains with cellulase activity in goat rumen microbes were investigated using metagenomic and bioinformatic analyses. After the complete genome of goat rumen microbes was obtained using a shotgun sequencing method, 217,892,109 pair reads were filtered, including only those with 70% identity, 100-bp matches, and thresholds below $E^{-10}$ using METAIDBA. These filtered contigs were assembled and annotated using blastN against the NCBI nucleotide database. As a result, a microbial community structure with 1431 species was analyzed, among which Prevotella ruminicola 23 bacteria and Butyrivibrio proteoclasticus B316 were the dominant groups. In parallel, 201 sequences related with cellulase activities (EC.3.2.1.4) were obtained through blast searches using the enzyme.dat file provided by the NCBI database. After translating the nucleotide sequence into a protein sequence using Interproscan, 28 protein domains with cellulase activity were identified using the HMMER package with threshold E values below $10^{-5}$. Cellulase activity protein domain profiling showed that the major protein domains such as lipase GDSL, cellulase, and Glyco hydro 10 were present in bacterial species with strong cellulase activities. Furthermore, correlation plots clearly displayed the strong positive correlation between some protein domain groups, which was indicative of microbial adaption in the goat rumen based on feeding habits. This is the first metagenomic analysis of cellulase activity protein domains using bioinformatics from the goat rumen.

이 연구에서는 대규모 병렬형 염기서열 분석 (massively parallel sequencing)에 적용할 샷건 라이브러리 (shotgun library)를 성공적으로 제작하기 위해 두 가지 유형의 고대 DNA (ancient DNA, aDNA) 분리 방법을 비교하였다. 헝가리 선사 시대 늑골 뼈 시료로 실리카 현탁액을 이용한 추출법과 Amicon Ultracel-15 10K 초원심 분리 장치(Millipore)를 이용한 추출법을 비교하였다. 약 150 mg의 뼛가루에서 각각의 방법으로 3 회 반복 추출한 후 이중 가닥 DNA (double stranded DNA, ds DNA)의 양을 측정하였다. 초원심분리 농축 방법은 실리카 현탁액을 사용하는 것보다 더 빠르고, 더 쉬운 공정이며 약 11 배 높은 DNA 회수율을 나타냈다. 또한 초원심 분리 장치로 획득한 DNA 주형은 실리카 현탁액으로 획득한 것보다 샷건 라이브러리가 훨씬 성공적으로 만들어졌다. 두 종류의 aDNA 추출 방법을 비교한 본 연구는 Amicon 장치를 사용하는 분리법이 시간의 절약, 단순한 프로세스 및 높은 효율 등의 장점을 지니고 있음을 보여주었다.
