Abstract:
The present invention provides uracil-DNA glycosylase (UDG) gene originating from Psychrobacter sp. HJ147, and amino acid sequences deduced from the gene; expression and purification of Psp HJ147 UDG gene in Escherichia coli; and characterization of UDG obtained therefrom, and the use thereof in a polymerase chain reaction (PCR). The UDG according to the present invention has a specific activity of excising uracil bases in a uracil-containing DNA substrates at a low temperature, and is easily heat-inactivated. It thus can effectively eliminate cross contamination and carry-over contamination of PCR templates often occurring after a PCR process using dUTP. Therefore, it is useful for increasing preciseness (elimination of false positives), purity and amplification efficiency of PCR.
Abstract:
An image forming apparatus includes a communication interface to receive a job, and a control board including a plurality of dedicated processors to support their respective functions and a serial interface connected each of the plurality of dedicated processors. The control board controls one of the plurality of dedicated processors corresponding to a received job to perform the received job. Accordingly, the functions of the image forming apparatus are effectively operated and may be performed in parallel with one another.
