| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Porin is a β-barrel fold structure,, located in the outer membrane of Gram-negative bacteria, and responsible for which not only transports substrates essential for the biological activity of bacteria but also induces immunity via the foreign foreign body recognition receptor Toll-like receptor (TLR) Also play an important role. This research aimed at elucidating the role of the recognition mechanism of porins by TLR, and 2) the role of the porins themselves in the microbial cells, using biochemical techniques. 1), Porin from N.meningitidis, and the extracellular domain of TLR2 were purified and their complex formation were biochemically analyzed. 2), structural analysis of meningococcal porin, simulation of electrophysiology and molecular dynamics, and clarified substrate transport mechanism of β-lactam antibiotics.
