Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The novel time-resolved measurement systems that are applicable to many proteins have been developed by combining micro-fluidic techniques and spectroscopic measurements. In addition, time-resolved serial-femtosecond x-ray crystallography was developed by using the micro-fluidic mixer, allowing us to monitor the conformational changes in protein during the expression of functions in real-time manner. These novel measurement systems were applied to the ABC transporter, clarifying its transport and structural dynamics.
