| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study primarily aimed to elucidate the mechanisms of interaction and mutual recognition between microorganisms and their hosts-either large organisms or other microbes-in symbiotic relationships in extreme environments such as deep-sea hydrothermal fields. Special emphasis was placed on glycan-associated molecules, which are known to play key roles in broad interspecies recognition. Through this research, we successfully identified several unique glycans and their associated molecules in microbial symbioses inhabiting such extreme environments, and obtained novel insights into their functional roles and evolutionary significances.
