히로시 무라카미 교수의 연구실은 분자세포생물학과 분자생물학을 기반으로, 단백질의 미토콘드리아 내 수송 메커니즘과 세포 cycle 체크포인트 조절 메커니즘을 중심으로 연구를 진행하고 있습니다. 특히, 핵에 의해 지배되는 미토콘드리아 단백질의 후기 번역 후 수송 및 관련 분자 촉매 인자, 그리고 유전자 안정성 유지를 위한 세포주기 조절 네트워크에 대한 기초 메커니즘을 규명하고자 합니다. 또한, 유전자 편집 기반 동물 모델 개발을 통해 의료적 응용 가능성을 탐색하고 있습니다.

We have developed an in vitro system in which the posttranslational import of Put2 (delta-pyrroline-5-carboxylate dehydrogenase), into yeast mitochondria is dependent on the addition of yeast postribosomal supernatant (PRS). When mRNA for a nuclear-encoded yeast mitochondrial matrix protein, Put2, was translated in a wheat germ cell-free system, import into posttranslationally added yeast mitochondria was negligible. However, when a yeast PRS was added, significant import was observed. The impor
A novel carbonic anhydrase was purified from human saliva with inhibitor affinity chromatography followed by ion-exchange chromatography. The molecular weight was determined to be 42,000 on sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, indicating that the human salivary enzyme is larger than the cytosolic isoenzymes CA I, CA II, and CA III (Mr 29,000) from human tissue sources. Each molecule of the salivary enzyme had two N-linked oligosaccharide chains which were cleaved by endo-be
Heterozygous alpha 1,3-galactosyltransferase (GT) gene knockout pigs were produced with transgenic pig fetal cells expressing both human decay-accelerating factor (hDAF) and N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase III (GnT-III). In this study, we assessed the gene targeting efficiency in the transgenic pig fetal cells derived from different fetal tissues such as brain, skin, heart, and liver, or fetal carcass. Targeted cell colonies were selected by hygromycin B. The GT-knockout colonies (KO colonies) w
The cell cycle checkpoint mechanisms ensure the order of cell cycle events to preserve genomic integrity. Among these, the DNA-replication and DNA-damage checkpoints prevent chromosome segregation when DNA replication is inhibited or DNA is damaged. Recent studies have identified an outline of the regulatory networks for both of these controls, which apparently operate in all eukaryotes. In addition, it appears that these checkpoints have two arrest points, one is just before entry into mitosis
