Abstract

Transformed hairy roots were induced from in vitro grown plantlets of Trichosanthes kirilowii by infection with Agrobacterium rhizogenes strain ATCC15834. Transformed hairy roots exhibited active growth with high branching of roots on plant growth regulators-free medium. Cloned line (TR-03) of hairy root was tested for its growth and extracellular protein accumulation in medium under various culture conditions. Among the culture media tested, a full-strength MS medium had a pronounced effect on root biomass and extracelluar protein accumulation in medium. The maximum root biomass (2.4 g DRW/flask) and extracellular total protein contents $(28.3ug/m\ell)$ in medium was obtained at inoculum size of 2 g (FRW) and in MS medium supplemented with 4% sucrose. In addition, the optimal shaking speed for root growth and extracellular protein accumulation in medium were 100 rpm. The total extracellualr protein concentration reached a maximum of $28.3ug/m\ell$ at 4 weeks and decreased thereafter. Protein translation inhibitory activity was observed in culture broths and reached levels of 21.3 unit. These studies demonstrate that the transformed hairy roots can be utilized for the in vitro production of ribosome-inactivating proteins.

하늘타리 (Trichosanthes kirilowii)로부터 조직배양 기법을 이용하여 약리작용을 나타내는 생리활성물질인 trichosantin을 생산하기 위한 연구로 Agrobacterium rhizogenes ATCC15834 의 감염을 통하여 기내 배양된 유묘의 잎절편으로부터 형질전환 모상근을 유도하였다. 유도된 모상근 clones으로부터 성장속도와 분지화 정도가 빠르며 단백질 합성능이 가장 우수한 TR-03 clones을 선발하였으며, 이를 사용하여 생체량과 배지내 가용성 단백질의 생산을 최대로 높일 수 있는 최적 배양조건을 조사하였다. TR-03 clone을 4% sucrose가 첨가된 MS 배지에 초기 접종농도 2 g (생중량)을 접종하여 100 rpm으로 배양시 생중량과 배지내 가용성 총단백질의 함량이 플라스크당 약 2.4 g (건중량)과 $28.3ug/\ell$으로 최대치를 나타내었다. 한편, 배지내 가용성 단백질에 대한 RIP활성 검정에서 배양 4주 후 21.3 unit로 최대치를 보였다.
