| Research Abstract |
Stomatin and flotillin, which are involved in forming membrane vesicles, are located in lipid rafts. Until now, it is not elucidated how these proteins function. I tried to prepare proteins, human stomatin and flotillin using Escherichia coli, and to determine three-dimensional structures in order to elucidate their functions. I succeeded to get these proteins. And if I can get crystals of these proteins, I will determine the structures.
