| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
One of glycolytic enzyme, phosphoglycerate mutase (PGAM) is expects to do strong-target for the preventive therapy of cancer via metabolic regulation. To investigate in vivo effect of PGAM, we generate two PGAM model mice; one is PGAM transgenic mouse, another is PGAM conditional knockout mouse. These mice did not show glucose intolerance. However, we found that PGAM transgenic mice are susceptible to chemical-induced carcinogenesis. Moreover, we found novel PGAM binding protein and its cooperative-biological effect.
