Biomolecular Chemistry Laboratory
Creating new materials by fusing the powers of life and chemistry
In this laboratory, we synthesize materials at the molecular level. We create functional molecules by designing and creating molecules through organic synthesis. DNA and proteins, which are biomolecules, are already working molecules. However, we are modifying biomolecules from an organic chemical viewpoint to create functional molecules with 欧洲杯足彩app下载_欧洲杯下注平台-【直播*网站】 intelligence and new functions. (1) Synthesis of artificial DNA (2) Design and synthesis of artificial antibodies using DNA nanotechnology (by DNA origami) (3) Rapid synthesis of unnatural nucleosides using bioreactors (4) Development of probes to selectively distinguish cells
