| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Considerable progress has been made in the study of cellulose biosynthesis in plants and bacteria. However, it has been revealed that cellulose biosynthesis is extremely complicated system, e.g. necessity of multiple synthase and several associated proteins. In this project, we focused ascidian cellulose synthases (CiCesA) expected to a new model organism and simple system for cellulose biosynthesis study, and constructed recombinant CiCesA protein by Pichia expression system for in vitro experiment system of cellulose biosynthesis.
