Research Field and Overview
-Laboratory for Intracellular Dynamic Structure of Molecules (tentative)
The dynamic properties of proteins play an important role in their functional expression. Furthermore, through the formation of higher-order structures such as liquid-liquid phase separation (LLPS), they are deeply involved in the spatiotemporal control of cellular functions and the formation of pathological conditions. These biological phenomena depend on the unique cellular environment that cannot be fully captured by in vitro analysis, and direct observation under cellular conditions is essential to elucidate their true nature. Our research team integrates various intracellular structural analysis techniques, including NMR, cryo-electron microscopy, and computational science, to elucidate the dynamic structures and functional mechanisms of proteins at the atomic level within cells. Our goal is to deepen our understanding of biological phenomena and contribute to drug discovery.
-Advanced Multi-Omics Technology Division, NMR Operation Team
NMR Operation Team is responsible for managing and maintaining the NMR research infrastructure at RIKEN Yokohama campus, which is composed of multiple high-performance NMR instruments for solution and solid-state samples, including 900MHz systems, and for promoting its usage for research in both industry and academia. The infrastructure is utilized in the various scientific fields: structural biology, drug development and material sciences.
Application deadline: Wednesday 22 October at noon
