| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Ion channels are one of membrane proteins crucial for the transportation of materials and information into and out of cells, therefore are important target of drug discovery. In this research we aimed to apply semiconductor-based ion imaging sensor (CCD-IIS) which selectively response to a specific cation to the detection of the activity of ion channels, and established the fundamental techniques for this purpose. We fabricated an artificial lipid bilayer membrane on CCD-IIS, and evaluated the structure and physical properties. We measured the ionic response before and after the formation of the bilayer formation using CCD-IIS. The artificial lipid bilayer showed sufficient ion screening effect under the exchange of buffer solutions.
