| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this stady, we will develop a technique for fixied a small molecule in the center of KAGOME pattern DNA origami.It can be used as nano chamber for structural analysis of a small molecule, less than 100 kDa, by electron cryomicroscopie. The stator protein MotA in flagella motor was selected as target protein for evaluation for this techinique. In beginning, The MotA structure was solved by electron microscopie, and shape and size information was obtained. Then KAGOME pattern DNA origami was designed to fit it, which will formed by four single stranded DNA. The one DNA has biotin labeled for fixed the target protein into center of KAGOME DNA origami. The formation of KAGOME pattern was evaluated by electrophoresis and negative stained electron microscope.
