Research Abstract |
We here attempt to investigate intracellular Zn signaling, which is important for cell fate and/or cell activation status determination followed by various diseases and disorders. We mainly have three results, which are obtained by this grant. (I) Investigation of intracellular Zn signals, (II) Molecular basis of Zn signal to analyze Zn-binding sites in the target molecules and their mechanism, and (III) in vivo significances of Zn signal using various Zn-related molecule deficient mice and several disease/disorder models.
