| Research Abstract |
Organelle abundance in eukaryotic cells seems to be tightly regulated. These regulations, however, are poorly understood. The objective of this project was investigation of unknown homeostatic regulation of organelle abundance by invention of organelle-knockdown technology which reduces the amount of specific organelle. In this granted term, I could make a prototype of the organelle knockdown technology, although its efficiency was not high. This system will be applicable to investigation of the homeostatic regulation of organelle abundance by improvement of the system.
