Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We focused on the microwave effect for the central dogma (the DNA replication, the transcription, and the protein translation). The rolling circle amplification, which is one of the gene amplification method, was employed to examine the microwave heating effect of DNA replication. The protein expression by using the GFP and the cell-free system was carried out to verify the microwave heating effect. As a result, the microwave-assited RCA was accelerated by microwave selectivity heating of ionic components. We confirmed the increase of fluorescence of GFP under microwave heating compared to conventional heating.
