Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In order to identify the important amino acid residues for the template DNA binding of human DNA polymerase eta (Pol eta), we generated several point mutants of Pol eta based on the co-crystal structure of Pol eta-UV-damaged DNA complex. We analyzed these purified Pol eta biochemically as well as UV sensitivity and mutation frequency of 6-thioguanine resistance. We also conducted screening of Pol eta inhibitors using chemical arrays of natural low molecular-weight compounds by Pol eta-binding at first and then examined inhibitory activities of these compounds using primer-extension reaction. We successfully obtained several Pol eta inhibitor candidates and some of them are plausibly specific for Pol eta.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
ヒトPolηと紫外線損傷DNAとの共結晶構造に基づいて、鋳型DNAとの相互作用に重要と考えられるアミノ酸を置換した点変異体タンパク質の解析から、鋳型DNAとの相互作用が弱い変異体は全て野生型と比較してDNA鎖の伸長反応が進みにくい結果となった。このことは結晶構造解析によるタンパク質の機能予測が非常に的確であることを示している。 一方、天然物由来の低分子化合物を固定化した化合物アレイを用い、ヒトPolηに対して阻害効果を示す化合物のスクリーニングを行い、Polηに特異的な阻害剤の候補を選択した。これらは代表的な制がん剤であるシスプラチンとの併用により、制がん効果の増強に効果的な可能性がある。
