| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We have developed a chemical modification method for introducing highly bioactive gangliosides to silk fibroin protein, which has been used as a matrix material in the field of tissue engineering. As a glycan to modify silk fibroin, the glycan part of echinodermatous ganglioside LLG-3 was chosen due to a high degree of the neurogenic activity and chemically synthesized. The synthetic LLG-3 glycan with a linker bearing an aromatic amine at the terminal was coupled with tyrosine residues in silk fibroin via diazonium coupling reaction, leading to the generation of ganglioside-modified silk fibroin for the first time.
