Outline Activities
My research projects are as follows:
1. Search and Utilization of New Marine Resources
(1). Molecular cloning and functional analyses of genes from marine microbes and marine invertebrates
(2). Utilization of marine bacteria for glycobiology and glycotechnology
(3). Purification and characterization of novel sphingolipid-degrading enzyme inhibitors from marine resources
(4). Isolation, characterization and cDNA cloning of novel sphingolipid-degrading enzymes and tumor-specific lectin from marine invertebrates (jellyfish, starfish etc.)
(5). Purification, characterization and gene cloning of sphingolipid-degrading enzymes from marine bacteria
2. Molecular Mechanism for Inversion of Pathogens and Expression of Their Phathogenecity
(1). Expression cloning of hemolysin related to fish disease
(2). Functional analyses of bacterial sphingolipid-degrading enzymes
3. Glycobiology and Sphingolipid Technology
(1). Isolation of sphingolipid-degrading bacteria from patients with atopic dermatitis
(2). A novel but highly conserved gene family of neutral/alkaline ceramidases
(3). Molecular evolution of endoglycoceramidase
(4). Sphingolipid-mediated signal transduction
