| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
To know the functional relationship of novel polarity-related genes for hippocampal neuronal formation, I analyzed the genes which involved in the polarity formation using C. elegans. RNAi analysis. I performed the yeast two-hybrid system to identify the physical relationships of the candidate genes. However, I couldn't identify the significant result of their physical relationships. Therefore, I investigated the gene Rab1, whose knockdown showed significant abnormality in polarized epithelial cells of C.elegans. I analyzed the conditional knockout mice for Rab1a using Nestin-Cre, but can't see any significant abnormality in the behavior and the brain formation. This might come from the redundancy of Rab1b, which is a gene in Rab1 family. Therefore, I must analyze the Rab1a and 1b double knockout mice in the future research.
