Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We succeeded in reproducing Repeat Associated Non-AUG translation, which is an irregular protein translation depends on CAG repeat sequences that cause human neurodegenerative diseases using a reconstituted protein synthesis system constructed with purified human translation factors. These results indicating that the translation reactions that cause neurodegenerative diseases occur if there is a translation-related factors such as mRNA, ribosome, translation initiation factors, translation elongation factors, and translation termination factors. This study established the technical basis for reproducing and analyzing the irregular translation mechanism that causes neurodegenerative diseases in vitro.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
本研究では、神経変性疾患の原因となるタンパク質凝集、具体的にはポリグルタミン病を引き起こすCAGリピート配列からの翻訳と翻訳産物の凝集をヒト因子由来の試験管内翻訳系で再現・解析するための技術基盤を確立した。リポソーム化を取り入れ細胞サイズの反応系場での解析も行えるようにした。本実験系はヒトの翻訳関連因子のみで再構築したものであり、試験管内でヒトの疾患に関連する遺伝子の一連の翻訳反応について新たな知見を得ることができるようになったため学術的意義が大きい。また、ヒト因子由来の実験系であるため、得られたデータを直接的に治療法開発へ応用できる可能性が高いという利点もあり、社会的な意義も大きい。
