Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this study, we focused on single cell genomics, which can reveal the ecology of uncultured microorganism, and we developed a novel visualization technique for sorting of uncultured microorganism. Hybridization chain reaction-fluorescence in situ hybridization (HCR-FISH) was combined for detection of functional genes in microorganisms. When this method was applied to E.coli encoding partial functional genes, signal was obtained from E.coli by investigated reaction time and concertation of reagent of click chemistry. Moreover, some signal was obtained from microorganisms in bioreactor.
