Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We conducted the development of high Cs-accumulating mutant from Deinococcus radiodurans using ion beam breeding technology. D. radiodurans were mutagenized with ion beams that were the highest mutant frequency observed (1E-1 to 1E-2 of surviving-fraction). The imaging analysis using Cs-137 was performed to estimate the Cs-accumulating ability of the mutagenized cells. Candidates of Cs-accumulating mutant were screened on the basis of the luminescent intensity and the cell area as indicators of intracellular Cs level and cell growth, respectively. As a result, we obtained 33 candidates, whose Cs-accumulating abilities were over 2-fold higher than that of the wild-type, from the population of mutagenized cells (about 3,000). Although more detailed analysis regarding the Cs-accumulating ability and the sensitivity to gamma rays are needed, these candidates generated by ion beam breeding technology could be expected to use for bioremediation purpose.
