Outline of Final Research Achievements

By the next generation DNA sequencer, we determined all the genome sequences of two soliton strains, KI-5 and KI-10, and their parental strain. By analysis of SNP, 75 genes of KI-5 and 75 genes of KI-10 were found to be changed. Furthermore, by deep-sequencing, 105 genes of KI-5 and 19 genes of KI-10 were found to increase during soliton.
Next we tried to look up the responsible genes. Among those mutated genes, one gene was found to be related to soliton phenomenon by molecular biology technique.
