    Abstract: A method of analyzing protein-protein interactions includes binding the first proteins to the substrate where the first proteins are tagged with the first markers which bind specifically to the biomolecules immobilized on the substrate or the first proteins bind specifically to the biomolecules immobilized on the substrate; incubating the substrate bound first proteins with cell lysate containing the second proteins which are tagged with second markers; analyzing the interactions between the first proteins and the second proteins in the cell lysate, and obtaining the first analytic value representing the kinetic picture of the interactions; incubating the substrate bound first proteins with cell lysate mixture of a cell lysate consisting of the second markers-tagged second proteins and another cell lysate comprising other proteins including unlabelled second proteins and obtaining the second analytic value; comparing and analyzing the first and the second analytic values.

    Abstract: This invention relates to a method for gastric cancer diagnosis through the detection of glycan changes, and to a kit for gastric cancer diagnosis. More specifically, based on the fact that in gastric cancer patient-derived haptoglobin, there are changes in N-linked glycosylation of haptoglobin, which are detected through lectin and mass spectrometery, that is, an increase in fucosylation, increases or significant changes in specific glycan structures depending on the classification of antennary structures, or a remarkable decrease in a high mannose structure of the N-glycan as compared to normal persons, N-glycan structures identified using the changes in N-linked glycosylation of haptoglobin may be usefully used as a diagnosis marker in a method for gastric cancer diagnosis using lectin or mass spectrometry, and a kit for gastric cancer diagnosis.

    Abstract: The present invention relates to a polypeptide capable of binding specifically to the extracellular domain of epidermal growth factor receptor, a polynucleotide that encodes the polypeptide, an expression vector comprising the polynucleotide, a recombinant microorganism having the expression vector introduced therein, and a method of producing the polypeptide using the recombinant microorganism. The polypeptide according to the present invention can bind to the extracellular domain of epidermal growth factor receptor with a high binding affinity comparable to those of existing monoclonal antibodies that are widely used as targeted therapeutic agents, thereby inhibiting the activity of the epidermal growth factor receptor. The polypeptide is useful for the development of agents for the prevention or diseases associated with overexpression of epidermal growth factor receptor.

    Abstract: A magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) apparatus and a control method thereof are provided. The MRI apparatus includes a scanner, and a controller configured to control the scanner to receive magnetic resonance (MR) signals corresponding to a magnitude of a y-axis gradient magnetic field in a respiration cycle of a patient, each of the MR signals being received at a time interval equal to a time period of the respiration cycle over a number of the received MR signals. The MRI apparatus further includes a processor configured to extract an MR signal received in a respiration condition of the patient from the received MR signals, fill a k-space with the extracted MR signal, and generate an MR image by reconstructing data of the filled k-space.
