Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Recently, we have focused on the relationship between clustering and dispersion of ion channels and its functions. In this study, we have controlled the distance between channels by using photoresponsive DNA as a crosslinking agent for ion channels. By designing DNA with an appropriate sequence, we succeeded in controlling the distance between channels at room temperature.
