| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Protein methylation is a reversible modification that varies dynamically in response to the environment. In order to identify methylated proteins, antibodies specific for methylated lysine residues are generally required. Since this methylated antibody is difficult to prepare, the methylome analysis has been relatively neglected as compared with other post-translational modification reactions. In this study, we aimed to 1) develop a methodology to detect protein methylation without using antibody, and to 2) explore protein inhibitors using the detection system.
