Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Proteins are chemically modified after translation based on genetic information of DNA, the modifications which are related to the expression of various functions of proteins. The modifications are referred to as post-translational modifications (PTMs). It is important to elucidate the relationship between PTMs and protein functions. In order to analysis of PTMs, modified amino acids themselves must be quantified since there is no description in DNA of what kind of modifications are executed. Until now, however, it has been difficult to quantify the modified amino acids because only small amounts of them are contained. In this study, quantitative hydrolysis method of proteins to amino acids and 2-dimensional HPLC to improve the resolution of analysis were developed. Combining these techniques with ultra-sensitive amino acid analysis, the analysis method was established for absolute quantification of modified amino acids.
