| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In Arabidopsis, gravitropic response are mediated by signal transduction from gravity perception to asymmetric organ growth. The molecular mechanism of gravitropic signal transduction is not fully understood. I have revealed that DGE genes are involved in gravitropic signaling process. However little has been reported on the protein molecular mechanism of their coding proteins. So I tried to elucidate their molecular mechanism by analyzing the interacting proteins of DGE proteins. In this study, I have reveled that protein interaction of DGEs and their interacting proteins is necessary for gravitriopic response, and we also have obtained some information about the molecular mechanism of DGE proteins.
