Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We tried to establish a new optogenetics tool to regulate a protein in living cells by light with longer wavelength. For the purpose, near-field light from fluorescent molecules or photo-reactive proteins regulated by longer wavelength light were used. In the method with photo-reactive proteins, we considered with a regulation of protein function by light. Ion-pump protein on cell membrane was selected, which was regulated by 580 nm light. The relationship between photo-reaction and variation of cell function were investigated with chemiluminescent protein sensor. In the result, cell phenomenon reacted with photo-irradiation were confirmed. Finally, we identified the possibility of photo-reactive proteins with the optical function with longer wavelength light.
