DEPARTMENTOFAPPLIEDBIOLOGYDepartment of Applied Biology (Life Science)FacultyDevelopment of an energy-saving vegetable production systemMASTER’S PROGRAM OF SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY 14 DEPARTMENTS032A sustainable agricultural production system is urgently required to increase food production. Plant factory is expected to be a new food production system that produces high quality vegetables throughout the year by artificially controlling the environment. The aim of this project is a development of the energy-saving vegetable production system equipped with various types of LED lights.This course aims to uncover on the biosynthesis of plant secondary products including flower colors and scent at a molecular level, and to apply the results to the plant breeding and material production.Elucidating how and why plants produce useful natural productsHiroyasu Ebinuma, ProfessorPlant Genomic Engineering and BiorefineryResearch on breeding of plant molecules based on genomic engineering and biorefinery with a focus on biofiberToshihiro Fujii, ProfessorBiomaterial and Biological Materials EngineeringResearch on creation and application of self-recycling products (processed products using biological materials derived from the person)Takaomi Nomura, Assistant ProfessorMolecular Biology and Functional BiochemistryFunctional analysis of ribosomal GTPa se center in thermophile bacteria Seiji Takashima, Assistant ProfessorStem Cell Biology, Regenerative Medicine, and Reproductive BiologyResearch on regenerative medicine and reproductive biology by use of spermatogonial stem cellsRyoichi Arai, Assistant ProfessorStructural Biology and Protein EngineeringInvestigation of tertiary structures and functions of proteins and research on design development and application of artificial proteinsShinichi Hochi, ProfessorReproductive Biology, Cryobiology, Developmental EngineeringStorage and effective use of mammal resourcesGoro Taguchi, Associate ProfessorPlant Biochemistry and Molecular BiologyStudies on the plant secondary metabolism through the enzymological　characterization and gene analysisMasahiro Nogawa, Associate ProfessorBreeding of Plant Molecules and Applied MicrobiologyImprovement of agrobacterium tumefaciens to use for eukaryotic transformationHideo Matsumura, Associate ProfessorScience of Plant GenomeDevelopment of genome analysis technology for higher plants and investigation of sex determination mechanismMakoto Shimosaka, ProfessorApplied MicrobiologyInvestigation of chtin-degrading enzymes of microorganisms, biotechnology of mushrooms screening for useful microorganismsToshio Shida, ProfessorMolecular Biology and Science of Nucleic Acid FunctionInvestigation of substrate recognition mechanism of enzyme acting on resolution of biopolymerMasayuki Nozue, ProfessorPlant Physiology and Plant Cell BiologyResearch on plant organellar function and development of high-functional vegetables and energy-saving cultivation system in a plant factoryNobuaki Hayashida, ProfessorMolecular Biology, Plant Physiology and Plant Molecular BreedingAnalysis of chloroplastic morphosis mechanism and molecular breeding of head vegetablesUnlocking the secrets of life and giving back the intellectual resources to human societiesThis course conducts basic and application research from a wider perspective including the field of basic biology by the slogan "from DNA to ecosystem", and aims to contribute to the construction of a recycling society. Here are researches ranging from DNA to cells.MaiFukushimaStarted in 2013 / Dr. Matsumura's LabI'm engaged in daily research activities while inspired by other lab members, because we all do our best in our own studies towards goals. It is a great pleasure for me when succeeded in getting experimental results as expected. Even when I was depressed by unsuccessful results, I refresh myself by monthly party with our friendly lab members. So, I want to thank to them that I can enjoy daily life in the laboratory. If you were considering to study in the graduate school, why don’t you join us !RecentCareerPathsWe analyze the process of nuclei from male and female cows fusing together in the ovum immediately after in-vitro fertilization, micro fertilization, ovum preservation and sperm lyophilization, focusing on growth behaviors of microtubules.Exploring the mystery of fertilizationWe research the functions and shapes of biomacromolecules (genes and enzymes) essential to life activity and the interaction between them, and apply the results to biotechnology.Exploring biomacromolecules to apply to biotechnologyWe discovered a new bacterium that strongly degrades chitin (ingredient of crab schell). We aim to produce useful materials by utilizing chitin-degrading enzymes produced by the bacterium.Aiming to produce useful materials from newly-discovered bacteriaKewpie, Terumo, Pasco Shikishima, Pfizer, Hokuto, Marukome, Nakano Seiyaku, Maruzen Foods, Ina Food Industry, JA Zen-noh Meat Foods, Daio Paper, Nippon Zoki Pharmaceutical, Nikkoku Seifun, Morinaga Milk Industry, Bushu Pharmaceuticals, Kaken Pharmaceutical, Kinjirushi, Ina Research, Tsumura, Obinata, Japan Food Research, Marui, Shinetsu-Myojo, Asuzac Foods, Kanto Kagaku, Daio Paper, MicroStone, KISCO, Megmilk Snow Brand, Matsuyama City Office, junior high school teacher (Yokohama City)
