| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The difference between cellls and chemical reaction in test tube was probably each reaction was properly organized in time and space. However,how the chemical reactions propagate in cells were still unknown. Actin is one of the most fundammental protein for cell motility and cytoarchitecture. However, its study on their regulatory mechanisms were not progressed for this 25 years, such as CDC42 and RAC1 polymerize actin filamnes of filopodia and lamelli podia. We use photoswitch of CDC42 and RAC1to regulate spatiotemporal regulation of these proteins, and monitor the cellular phenotypes using the FRET sensor and Life-act m Cherry markers,
