説明

<p>Chemical biology is a new research field to elucidate unknown mysteries in biology by compounds as research tools. If we are able to find a novel compound that positively regulates plant growth, it will be useful tool, which can elucidate unknown molecular mechanisms in plant growth, and it will be used for applied plant science in agriculture. Using these chemical biological approaches, I identified novel genes and compounds that regulated plant growth. In the aspect of gene exploration, I had screened brassinosteroid (BR) signaling genes that promote plant growth. At first, I had used brassinazole (Brz) that is synthesized as a specific inhibitor for BR biosynthesis enzyme DWF4. Then, I attempted to screen for a mutant with a Brz-insensitive long hypocotyl phenotype using gain-of-function mutant germinations. My first isolated mutant was named as bil1Brz-inseisitive-long hypocotyl1) and the resulted BIL1 is known as a master transcription factor that regulates 3,000 genes expressions. Furthermore, I am continuing to screen and analysis of bil mutants, bssBrz-sensitive-short hypocotyl), bpgBrz-insensitive-pale green)mutants. Trials to reveal molecular mechanisms of plant growth based on novel BR signaling factors are still going on.</p>
