Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this research project, we have elucidated the glycan-mediated mechanisms of biological functions through structural analyses of molecular complexes and thereby provided the groundwork for developing drugs targeting the carbohydrate recognition systems. In particular, we have revealed molecular mechanisms underlying the selective trafficking and degradation in glycoprotein-fate determination in cells. Furthermore, we have established technical basis for structural analyses of antibodies and thereby obtained solution structure information of these glycoproteins produced in various production vehicles, providing valuable insights into development of antibody drugs.
