| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In previous research, we found an α-amylase and defensin-like proteins from rice proteins as bioactive proteins involved in activating biophylactic function in human. In this research project, in order to propose these bioactive proteins as novel medicines that may enhance immune function, we further explored the biophylactic function of these proteins in humans. Furthermore, we analyzed structural factors involved in expression of their functions by analyzing their three-dimensional structures and intermolecular interaction between the proteins and their target molecules.
