| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Membrane-bound receptors in living cells mediate signal transductions by receiving extracellular signals. Despite their biological importance, it is still quite difficult to unveil their functions due to their similar and complicated three-dimensional structures and activation mechanisms. Here we have developed novel chemogenetic approaches, called On-cell Coordination Chemistry (OcCC) in order to artificially control the functions of membrane-bound receptors. We successfully demonstrated that OcCC enabled to control the activities of two types of neurotransmitter receptors, ionchannel type and GPCR type glutamate receptors, in live neurons. Also, we achieved the artificial activation of class A GPCRs by coordination anchor method.
