Cloning and Sequencing of the Gene Involved in Morphological Chang of Zoogloea ramigera 115SLR
Lee, Sam Pin,Kim, Tae Rahk,Anthony John Sinskey 한국미생물 · 생명공학회 2000 Journal of microbiology and biotechnology Vol.10 No.2
Plasmid pLEX3 isolated from the recombinant cosmid library of Zoogloea ramigera 115 was found to be responsible for the restoration of the rugose colony phenotype. To confirm the essential region responsible for the complementation, subclones were constructed from plasmid pLEX3 and transformed into mutant strain Z ramigera 115SLR. The recombinant plasmids pLEX10 and pLEX11 were shown to complement the slime-forming property of Z. ramigera 115SLR. In a compositional analysis of the exopolysaccharides from Z ramigera 115, Z ramigera 115SLR, and Z ramigera 115SLR harboring plasmid pLEX11, the exopolysaccharides showed a similar composition with glucose, galactose, and side chain groups. The complete nucleotide sequence of the 3.25kb genomic DNA insert in plasmid pLEX11 was determined and its analysis identified two open reading frames which could encode two proteins. The gene products derived from the two open reading frames were confirmed by an in vivo transcription using a T7-RNA polymerase. The ORF1 produced a 30kDa protein, whereas the ORF2 was found responsible for the complementation of the morphological mutation and produced a 14kDa protein. An in vivo gene expression of plasmid pTEX10 showed another open reading frame encoding a 50kDa protein. The gene products from ORF1 and ORF2 are regarded as novel proteins which do not show any homology with other proteins.

Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is recognized one of the leading metabolic diseases globally, and the younger age population with the disease is rapidly growing, especially in developed countries. Since there has been no approved medicine, losing weight is known to be the only best remedy to control or reverse the disease. Recently, the field of microbiome has attracted much attention to offer more practical choices for patients. Here, we provide experimental evidence that Streptococcus thermophilus LM1012 (LM1012), a safe probiotic strain, is effective for improving NAFLD indexes. In the methionine-choline deficient (MCD) diet induced C57BL/6 mouse model, administration of LM1012 promoted marked reductions of aspartate transaminase (23.8%), total bilirubin (27.8%), hydroxycholesterol (64.2%), triglyceride (29.7%) and IL-1β (68.3%) compared to the MCD diet alone group. Also, the histopathological data imply that LM1012 inhibited fat accumulation and inflammation in the liver, which are the key biomarkers for progression of the disease. Together, these findings suggest that human consumption of LM1012 as a healthy nutritional supplement, may be helpful in reducing the risk of liver damages in NAFLD patients.

A rise in the occurrence of allergic diseases is attributed to the dysregulated balance of type 1/type 2 immunity, where type 2 T-helper (Th2) cells predominate over type 1 T-helper (Th1) cells, leading to an abnormally increased production of IgE in response to unharmful antigens. Kimchi, a traditional Korean fermented food, is a rich source of beneficial lactic acid bacteria. In this study, we investigated the ability of Enterococcus faecium FC-K derived from kimchi to induce type I immunity in the presence of Th2 polarizing conditions in vitro and in vivo. Stimulation of mouse peritoneal macrophages with E. faecium FC-K induced the production of tumor necrosis factor alpha, interleukin (IL)-6, and IL-12. Under the in vitro Th2 conditions in which splenic T cells were activated in the presence of IL-4, E. faecium FC-K enhanced the ability of T cells to produce interferon (IFN)-γ. Using the ovalbumin (OVA)-induced allergy model, male BALB/c mice receiving E. faecium FC-K reduced the serum level of total IgE, but not that of OVA-specific IgE. Furthermore, the population of activated splenic B cells during OVA immunization was decreased in E. faecium FC-K-treated mice, accounting for a reduction of total IgE in the serum. Restimulating splenocytes from OVA-immunized mice with OVA ex vivo resulted in an increased production of IFN-γ, with no effect on IL-4, in E. faecium FC-Ktreated mice. These observations provide the evidence that E. faecium FC-K can be a beneficial probiotic strain that can modulate the Th2-mediated pathologic response.

This study aimed to develop and optimize a demucilaging process of Opuntia ficus-indica var. saboten (OFI) fruit to increase its usability as functional food ingredient and food additive. Viscozyme and Novozym 33095 as multienzyme complex having a broad spectrum of carbohydrases and pectolytic enzymes, respectively, were used in enzymatic dissolution along with high hydrostatic pressure liquefaction. To optimize the liquefaction process using high hydrostatic pressure liquefying extractor, response surface methodology with 3-factor central composite design was employed with reaction factors such as temperatures (25, 32, 40, 48, and 55oC), pressures (20, 40, 60, 80, and 100 MPa), and times (15, 30, 45, 60, and 75 min). At optimum conditions (25oC, 100 MPa, and 58.275 min) for high hydrostatic pressure liquefaction process, the processed OFI fruit juice was predicted to have viscosity at 2.917 poise, partly due to the release of free sugars such as fructose and glucose detected using HPLC-ELSA system. The results above suggests that the OFI fruit juice with decreased viscosity may be used for various manufacturing processes of food, beverage, ice cream, and cosmetics.

백년초를 80% (v/v) 에탄올-물 혼합용액으로 추출하여 총페놀 함량, 총플라보노이드 함량, 산화방지능, 신경세포 보호효과, AChE 및 BChE 활성저해능을 평가하였다. 백년초 100 g FW당 총페놀함량은 409.9 mg GAE, 총플라보노이드 함량은 72.2 mg CE이었다. 백년초(100 g FW)의 산화방지능은 ABTS, DPPH, ORAC법에서 각각 381.2, 298.2, 3,219.9 mg VCE였다. 백년초 추출물은 H₂O₂의 산화 스트레스로부터 세포 내 산화 스트레스를 감소시켜 신경세포 PC-12의 생존율을 농도의존적으로 증가시켰다. 또한, 백년초 추출물은 AChE 및 BChE 활성을 저해하였다. 본 연구 결과로부터 백년초의 세포 내 산화 스트레스 감소에 의한 신경 세포 보호능과 AChE 및 BChE 저해능이 확인 되었으며, 이러한 결과를 통해 향후 백년초를 이용한 기능성 제품 및 여러 가공품 개발에 활용이 가능할 것으로 기대한다. Oxidative stress caused by reactive oxygen species is ascribed to many neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer’s disease. Phenolic antioxidants can reduce the oxidative stress. In this study, ripe fruits of Opuntia ficus-indica var. saboten (OFS) were extracted using 80% (v/v) aqueous ethanol. Total phenolic and flavonoid contents of the OFS fruits (100 g) were 409.9 mg gallic acid equivalents and 72.2 mg catechin equivalents, respectively. The OFS fruits had antioxidant capacity at 381.2, 298.2, and 3,219.9 mg vitamin C equivalents/100 g in ABTS, DPPH, and ORAC assays, respectively. The OFS fruits showed protective effects on PC-12 cells against oxidative stress in a dose-dependent manner, partly due to decrease of intracellular oxidative stress. Furthermore, the OFS fruits inhibited both acetylcholinesterase and butyrylcholinesterase. Consequently, these results suggest that the OFS fruits might be served as a source of functional materials to reduce oxidative stress in neuronal cells and to inhibit cholinesterases.

Skin is the soft outer covering of vertebrates that provides protection from pathogenic infection, physical damage, or UV irradiation, and controls body temperature and water content. In this study, we examined the effects of oral intake of kimchi-derived Lactobacillus plantarum K8 lysates on skin moisturizing. In an in vitro study, we observed that the hyaluronic acid content increased in HaCaT cells treated with L. plantarum K8 lysates. Oral administration of L. plantarum K8 lysates effectively attenuated the horny layer formation and decreased epidermal thickening in DNCB-treated SKH-1 hairless mice skin. The damage to barrier function was reduced after 8 weeks of oral administration of L. plantarum K8 lysates as compared with that in the atopic dermatitis mice. For the test with volunteers, we manufactured experimental candy containing 2.1% L. plantarum K8 lysates, while control candy did not contain bacterial lysate. A significant increase in hydration in the experimental candy-administered group as compared with the control candy-administered group was observed on the face after 4 and 8 weeks, and on the forearm after 4 weeks. Decreases in horny layer thickness and TEWL value were observed on the face and forearm of the experimental group. Together, the in vitro cell line and in vivo mouse studies revealed that L. plantarum K8 lysates have a moisturizing effect. A clinical research study with healthy volunteers also showed an improvement in barrier repair and function when volunteers took L. plantarum K8 lysates-containing candy. Thus, our results suggest that L. plantarum K8 lysates may help to improve skin barrier function.
