Research Abstract |
This study approaches the finding of novel factors that interact with ubiquitination-related proteins by monitoring the rotational motion of proteins. First, I established the experimental procedure to quantify the rotational motion of membrane lipids in yeast. The defect in ergosterol biosynthesis resulted in a decrease in membrane rigidity and an increase in the rotational lipid motion. The measurement of fluorescein-labeled model proteins suggests that this technique is valid for proteins of less than 10 kDa. Sna3 was identified as a factor that potentially interacted with Rsp5 ubiquitin ligase. In the future study, I investigate the molecular interaction between Rsp5 and Sna3 using the system employed in this study.
