Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In order for elucidating the structure-function relationship of ion-channel proteins, we have developed an apparatus for simultaneous optical and electrical measurement of single ion-channel proteins. Using this apparatus, we successfully measured single ligand bindings to single ion-channel proteins. We developed a novel method for measuring ion-channel current in the course of apparatus development process, which is applicable to ion-channel sensor devices. We revealed a relationship between the structure and the function of potassium channel, KcsA, using macroscopic methods.
