Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Development of a method to analyze molecular stereostructures provides a detailed understanding of the functions of various molecules such as medicines and enzymes and of the origin of life. This work has established a new convenient method for analyzing molecular stereostructures by using vibrational circular dichroism (VCD) spectroscopy. For example, this work has demonstrated its effectiveness toward the secondary structure of macromolecules such as polyesters. Another example for the use of our VCD method is facile determination of lipid molecules that are suggested to have involved in the development of life. Because VCD spectroscopy provides structural information that can not be obtained by the other available methods, this method should deepen our understandings on molecular stereostructures.
