| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
It is important for us to regulate accurately biological energy metabolism because of its demand for usual action, thermoregulation and so on. We developed and utilize a screening assay for novel energy metabolic regulators. As a result, it was discovered that the new factor is increased during deprivation of energy and activates the enzyme for energy production. In future, we aim to analyze how the new factor relate to the metabolic disorders which is such as diabetes in order to help prevent and cure those.
