Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Biochemical and in silico analysis was applied to Rf-like PPR proteins those contain various amino acid polymorphism, to identify amino acids that connecting the functionality of Rf proteins. Further, a Rf protein recognizes RNA sequence and the subsequent structural change results in suppression of CMS gene expression of orf125 gene in ogura-CMS radish. Custom PPR protein was designed forCMS gene suppression The custom, artificial PPR protein displayed expected RNA sequence recognition. This custom PPR technology was applied to develop a molecular tool for suppressing a CMS gene for a CMS rice.
