Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Proteins are posttranlationally modified. Post-translational modifications are known to be essential mechanisms to diversify their protein functions and dynamically coordinate their signaling networks. To reveal the molecular mechanisms how the modifications function, we tried to chamically prepare modified proteins. As the molecular weight is small and various modifications are reported, we focused histone, which is nuclear protein. We established a method to prepare histone H3 carrying ubiquitin analogue at specific amino acid. By using the modified histone H3, we found new epigenetic regulation that ubiquitinated histone H3 stimulated maintenance DNA methylation activity, via direct interaction, in vitro.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
これまで修飾タンパク質を用意して、タンパク質修飾の機能を調べるという研究は少なかった。その理由は、修飾タンパク質(特に、低分子蛋白質が修飾として導入される場合)を作成するのが難しいことによる。本研究成果で、目的のアミノ酸にユビキチン化修飾を導入することができる。そのため、その修飾の生理機に迫ることができ、私が報告した以外の新制御系も見出すことが出来ると考えている。さらに、これまで導入が容易である修飾と同時に導入することにより、さらに複雑な制御系を明らかにできうる基盤的技術を準備できたため、今後の修飾研究が大きく進むと期待できる。
