The Restructuring in the Post-Crisis Korean Economy
The current paper evaluates the restructuring measures implemented in the post-crisis Korean economy. Its policies taken after the economic crisis were quite successful in terms of economic recovery. The financial and corporate sector reforms undertaken by the Korean government contributed to strengthening the banking and corporate sectors, attracting FDI inflows. However, most indicators show worsening of income inequalities and workers. situation regarding job security. The strengths as well as the weaknesses of the development strategy of Korea and its reform measures undertaken since the occurrence of the economic crisis need to be differentiated

Global analysis of protein phosphorylation in yeast
Protein phosphorylation is estimated to affect 30% of the proteome and is a major regulatory mechanism that controls many basic cellular processes. Until recently, our biochemical understanding of protein phosphorylation on a global scale has been extremely limited; only one half of the yeast kinases have known in vivo substrates and the phosphorylating kinase is known for less than 160 phosphoproteins. Here we describe, with the use of proteome chip technology, the in vitro substrates recognized by most yeast protein kinases: we identified over 4,000 phosphorylation events involving 1,325 different proteins. These substrates represent a broad spectrum of different biochemical functions and cellular roles. Distinct sets of substrates were recognized by each protein kinase, including closely related kinases of the protein kinase A family and four cyclin-dependent kinases that vary only in their cyclin subunits. Although many substrates reside in the same cellular compartment or belong to the same functional category as their phosphorylating kinase, many others do not, indicating possible new roles for several kinases. Furthermore, integration of the phosphorylation results with protein–protein interaction and transcription factor binding data revealed novel regulatory modules. Our phosphorylation results have been assembled into a first-generation phosphorylation map for yeast. Because many yeast proteins and pathways are conserved, these results will provide insights into the mechanisms and roles of protein phosphorylation in many eukaryotes
Industrial policy and diversification in the economic development of Kazakhstan
This paper explains the role of industrial policy and diversification in Kazakhstan. The oil and gas sector has led Kazakhstan’s economic growth. Kazakhstan’s economic growth rate has been mediocre compared with its neighbouring countries. The government pursued market-based reform, privatization, and diversification. Although it has emphasized developing agriculture and manufacturing, development in sectors other than oil and gas has not been apparent. The dominance of the extractive sector suggests the existence of the Dutch disease. After explaining industrial policy measures, this paper evaluates the role of government policy and provides policy implications for developing countries. Although the government has tried to diversify from a heavy reliance on the oil and gas sector to the agricultural and manufacturing sectors, the diversification strategy has been unsuccessful overall. Kazakhstan’s government must pay more attention to improving human capital and raising R&D expenditure. Active government policy is needed to diversify FDI inflows by sector. The government must clarify the objective of SME promotion and fiscal incentives must be finely targeted, considering industrial policy objectives. Clusters must be closely related to the overall direction of the industrial policy. The government must establish other infrastructure that may attract foreign investors to value-added industries
Industrial Policy and the Development of the Electric Vehicles Industry: The Case of Korea
The Korean government has stimulated R&D activities of the electric vehicle (EV) industry and promoted commercialization of EVs. Korea’s EV industry developed rapidly. The industrial policy to promote the EV industry provides implications to the automobile producers. First, producers not developing EV technologies may lag behind in the market. Second, it is important to improve the efficiency of their R&D expenditures. Third, it may be effective for the less advanced EV producers to cooperate with foreign producers. Fourth, the EV producers are needed to cooperate with the rechargeable battery producers. Fifth, success of the EV industry will depend on the probability of reducing the production cost. Sixth, the government should prepare R&D support measures targeting promotion of SMEs in the EV industry. Seventh, the government wishing to promote the EV industry needs to define the responsibility of each Ministry and establish a system resolving conflicts between the Ministries efficiently
Evidence for Allelopathic Activity of Mikania micrantha H.B.K. on Three Weed Species
Laboratory, greenhouse and field studies were conducted to determine the allelopathic potential of Mikania micrantha H.B.K. on the germination and growth
of three weed species, A.systasia gangetica (L.) T. Anders., Chrysopogon aciculatus
(Ritz.) Trin and Paspalum conjugatum Berg. Germination and fresh weight of all
three weeds decreased progressively when exposed to increasing concentrations
of aqueous leaf or root extract of Mikania. The phytotoxic effect of root extract
on the radicle elongation of the test species was greater than that of leaf extract.
The dry weight and rate of emergence of the bioassay species used were affected
when Mikania debris (leaf or root) were placed on soil surfaces or incorporated into the soil. P. conjugatum emergence was strongly affected when Mikania (root
orleaf) was incorporated into the soil. Soil collectedfrom the field where Mikania
had been growing had no effecton the final germination of the three weed species.
However, dry weights of A. gangetica and P. conjugatum were significantly reduced
when grown in the Mikanilt-infested so
