Outline of Final Research Achievements |
1. Fluorescently labeled miRNA precursors were microinjected into a cell. They were matured by endogenous biosynthetic pathway and they were incorporated into RISC. Single-molecule imaging technique revealed that miRNAs move on actin filaments. 2. Localization of mRNAs labeled with Cy5-linear antisense DNA probe was investigated under the stress conditions. Super-resolution microcopy revealed that mRNAs are not uniformly present in the stress granule (SG) but are accumulated to form high density regions with a diameter of about 100 nm. 3. The lifetimes of translational arrest of SecM mutants, whose amino acids outside ribosome were partially truncated, were investigated. Amino acid residues 57-73 and 57-98 contributed to the stabilization of translational arrest.
