Outline of Final Research Achievements |
DNA repair promoting protein PprA derived from the moderately thermophilic radioresistant bacterium Deinococcus geothermalis was expressed in the extremely thermophilic bacterium Thermus thermophilus. The PprA-expressed T. thermophilus strain showed an increased resistance to hydrogen peroxide and ethyl methanesulfonate, suggesting that PprA protein is involved in the repair of DNA oxidative and alkylation damage. This study revealed that the improvement of DNA repair function is possible by expressing a DNA repair promoting protein specific to the radioresistant bacterium in an extreme thermophile.
