백삼단백질의 가열에 의한 내열특성을 알아보기 위하여 가열시간에 따른 내열성 단백질의 함량과 전기영동패턴을 조사하고, CM-cellose 컬럼크로마토그라피 방법으로 얻어진 분획을 가열하여 내열성 단백질과 비내열성단백질의 이온성분의 단백질함량을 분석하고 분자량을 확인하였다. 그 결과 가열시간에 따른 내열성 단백질의 함량은 주근 중심이 주근 주피보다 전체적으로 높았으며 두부위 모두 가열시간이 90분 이후부터는 감소하는 경향이 커졌다, 가열시간에 따른 내열성 단백질량은 가열시간이 길어짐에 따라 단백질은 감소하였고, 가열시간 30분까지는 66, 45, 29, 24, 22, 20, 12 kD 등 7개의 밴드가 가열시간 60분부터는 분자량 22 kD는 소실되었음이 확인되었다. 단백질 함량은 내열성 단백질이 비내열성 단백질보다 높게 나타났으며, 내열성 단백질 함량은 양이온성 단백성분 분획이 28.24%로 음이온성 단백성분 0.80%보다 훨씬 높았다. 내열성 단백질의 분자량은 66, 55, 36 kD 임을 확인하였다.

Pectinestrase(PE) 중에 열에 안정한 thermostable pectineterase(TSPE)를 열에 불안정한 thermolabile pectinesterase(TLPE)로부터 구분하기 위하여 $70^{\circ}C$에서 $5{\sim}10$분간 가열 처리하였다. TSPE의 추출 수율을 증가시키기 위하여 추출시간, pH, 온도, NaCl의 농도 그리고 세포벽을 분해하는 가수분해 효소의 사용 등 여러가지 변화를 주어 개발한 최적 조건은 오렌지 착즙액의 pH 4.14와 같은 1 M NaCl의 acetate buffer에 분말시료의 0.2% $Cytolase^{TM}$ 104(cellulase hemicellulase와 pectinase의 혼합물) 첨가하여 가수분해하여 추출하는 것이었다. 증류수로 추출하거나 황산암모늄 $0{\sim}0.3$ 포화도의 분획은 목적으로 하는 PE 이외의 단백질을 제거하는 수단으로 이용할 수 있었다. 또한 5.0% Triton TX-114의 두가지 액상을 이용한 분배의 방법은 추출한 조효소로부터 TLPE와 TSPE를 분리하는 수단으로 이용할 수 있었다.

A feruloyl esterase encoding gene (designated fae6), derived from a leachate metagenomic library, was cloned and the nucleotide sequence of the insert DNA determined. Translational analysis revealed that fae6 consists of a 515 amino acid poly-peptide, encoding a 55 kDa pre-protein. The Fae6 primary structure contained the G-E-S-A-G sequence, which corresponds well with a typical catalytic serine sequence motif (G-x-S-x-G). The fae6 gene was successfully over-expressed in E. coli and the recombinant protein was purified to 8.4 fold enrichment with 17% recovery. The $K_M$ data showed Fae6 has a high affinity to methyl sinapate while thermostability data indicated that fae6 was thermolabile with a half life ($T_{1/2}$) < 30 min at $50^{\circ}C$. High affinity for Fae6 against methyl sinapate, methyl ferulate and ethyl ferulate suggest that the enzyme can be useful in hydrolyzing ferulated polysaccharides in a biorefinery process.

The thermal properties of ramie leaf ${\beta}$-amylase (RBA) were examined to develop a novel process for enzyme purification. The thermostability of RBA extract prepared from ramie leaf powder was examined at various temperatures. RBA activity decreased slightly, whereas other carbohydrate-active enzymes, such as $\small{D}$-enzyme, were rapidly inactivated during 30 min incubation at $60^{\circ}C$. When the heat-treated extract was incubated with various substrates, maltose was produced exclusively as the major product, whereas the untreated crude extract produced maltose and other maltooligosaccharides. In sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis analysis, fewer protein bands were observed for the heat-treated extract than the untreated extract, indicating that the thermostable RBA was partially purified and other thermolabile enzymes were eliminated. Thus, the treatment of the RBA extract at $60^{\circ}C$ for 30 min resulted in 5.4-fold purification with a recovery yield of 90%.

The human $B_{12}$ trafficking chaperone hCblC is well conserved in mammals and non-mammalian eukaryotes. However, the C-terminal ~40 amino acids of hCblC vary significantly and are predicted to be deleted by alternative splicing of the encoding gene. In this study, we examined the thermostability of the bovine CblC truncated at the C-terminal variable region (t-bCblC) and its regulation by glutathione. t-bCblC is highly thermolabile ($T_m={\sim}42^{\circ}C$) similar to the full-length protein (f-bCblC). However, t-bCblC is stabilized to a greater extent than f-bCblC by binding of reduced glutathione (GSH) with increased sensitivity to GSH. In addition, binding of oxidized glutathione (GSSG) destabilizes t-bCblC to a greater extent and with increased sensitivity as compared to f-bCblC. These results indicate that t-bCblC is a more sensitive form to be regulated by glutathione than the full-length form of the protein.
