研究実績の概要 |
Model organism was decided and it was determined that it produced PAH-type catechols during biotransformation of PAHs. Genes involved in catabolism of PAHs by this organism were determined. RT-PCR methods were established by investigating expression of these genes. Assessment of DNA damage by LC/ESI-MS/MS DNA adductomics was conducted using the model organism and model toxicant hydrogen peroxide.

理由
Determined model organism. Determined that this organism biotransforms PAHs through a PAH-catechol type pathway by analyzing biotransformation products during exposure to PAHs. Established methods for conducting RT-PCR analyses by investigating genes involved in PAH catabolism.
