研究実績の概要 |
Computational analysis of DNA methylone in mutants of the FeS biogenesis pathway that localise to mitochondria revealed some interesting features about putative nuclear processes under control from mitochondria. Mutants in new candidates from Fe-S biogenesis pathway that emerged from yeast studies are constructed to test their involvement in DNA demethyltion by DRE2. Genome editing is being used to engineer DRE versions that may alter specifically part of the protein function.

3: やや遅れている
理由
The transition to independent laboratory is a lot slower than expected. In addition, there are inherent technical issues associated with initial set up for experimental molecular biology.
|
今後の研究の推進方策 |
Transgenics with modified, attenuated and inducible versions of the DRE2 protein in different cellular compartments will be created and profiled for de-regulated gene sets, leading to elucidation of what biological roles are connected to the nucleus-mithocondria communication pathway disturbed in dre2-/-.
