Outline of Final Research Achievements |
(1) Establishment of a chemical synthesis method for artificial nucleosomes: We established a new peptide ligation method using organometallic complexes, and synthesized four types of core histones (H2A, H2B, H3, and H4) and linker histone H1. (2) Creation of supernucleosomes: In order to discover the essence of the regulation of cell functions by atoms, we investigated protein modification methods and established a method for the chemical synthesis of "supernucleosomes" with functions not found in nature.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
独自の化学合成の確立を通して、天然にはない標識や反応性官能基、複数の複雑な機能性ユニットをヒストン構造に入れることが可能になるので、機能解明を支援する創造的スーパーヌクレオソームを作成して未知のヌクレオソーム機能を明らかにすることができる。これによって、ヌクレオソーム内DNAへ働きかけることができる新たな抗がん剤設計などに利用することができる。
