| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The collagen family forms a part of the extracellular matrix protein group. A lot of organisms have this protein family. The collagen type I family is known as the major fibrillar collagen constitutes body tissue.
In this project, undiscovered coding regions of collagen type I sequence were searched from animal genomes. With the method of molecular biological technique and bioinformatic approach, some collagen type I sequences were newly identified. A database website was developed and these sequences have been published from the server.

| Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
本研究結果は、重要だと予想されていながらその解析の困難さのためにあまり着手されていないコラーゲンタンパク質を、集中的に解析しその情報を公開したことに意義を持つ。
これらの公開されたコラーゲン配列情報は生物の生体だけでなく、今後増えていくと考えられる化石由来のタンパク質や動物加工製品の迅速な同定・分類に役立つだけでなく、国際的な生物動態や環境保全のための情報として幅広く利用されることが見込まれる。
