Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Protein molecules are working in organisms with changes in spatial and temporal domains, resulting in a variety of biological functions. Thus it is essential to understand the proteins from the spatial and temporal aspects. In this study, we focused on photo signal transduction mechanism regulated by the photoactive retinal proteins and we investigated it at various spatial and temporal resolutions.
