Research Abstract |
The saccharide acts as information element in the life phenomenon having a complicated conformation. The establishment of new analytical method is necessary to elucidate the recognition mechanism of such carbohydrate chains. I established two kinds of new carbohydrate chain analytical methods in this study by putting organic synthetic chemistry and biochemistry and molecular biology together. One is the phage display method using the self-assembled monolayer and the other is the fluorescence label method which maintained structure of the carbohydrate chains.
