| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this study, the chemical synthesis of caveolin, which is an important protein for the formation of caveola, was performed. To accomplish the synthesis, the entire sequence was divided into 5, and each peptide segment was prepared by the solid-phase method. As caveolin is partly inserted in lipid bilayer, it retains highly hydrophobic character. Therefore, the O-acylisopeptide structure, which is efficient to increase the solubility of the peptide segment, was introduced to the C-terminal segments. As a result, all the segments could be synthesized and purified by high-performance liquid chromatography. The obtained segments were then condensed by our segment condensation method (The thioester method) and the polypeptide with the entire sequence of caveolin was obtained. The protecting groups at the side chain SH group of Cys residues were then removed and the palmitoyl groups were introduced. Finally, all the protecting groups were removed to obtain the desired caveolin.

生体内では絶えず細胞内外で物質、情報がやり取りされている。細胞膜上での物質の取り込み方法の一つとして、カベオラと呼ばれるくぼみを利用する方法がある。カベオラの細胞質側には、カベオリンが集積している。しかし、カベオリンが集積すればくぼみができるのか等、カベオラによる物質取り込みの詳細は不明である。カベオリンの変異は、がん等種々の疾患への関与が示唆されており、カベオリンの詳細な機能解明が望まれている。しかし、カベオリンは膜に存在するため、機能解析に必要な高純度の試料の調製が困難であった。本研究でカベオリンの化学合成法が確立できたことから、今後カベオリンの機能研究に大きく貢献できるものと期待される。
