DNA
Despite remarkable progress in molecular biology concerning gene expression in chromatin context, we are still far from a clear understanding of how genomic DNA
is packaged without entanglement into a nucleus, how genes are functionally wrapped up in chromatin. We are investigating these issues from a viewpoint of conformation
and physical properties of DNA.

Action of biomolecules and their application to medicinal technologies and relation of nutrition and epigentics are studied. Espacially, epigenetically cell function
is regulated by the intra-celler environment, which is determined by nutritionalstate. So studying the relationship between nutrition and epigenetics is important
for promoting both of the social and human health.

We seek to clarify the mechanism of biological motility (intra-cellular transport, muscle contraction/oscillation, and cell division) based on the structure and
functions of molecular motors and cytoskeletal filaments, and understand the characteristics intrinsic to each level of hierarchy in bio-systems, from single
molecules to cells. We are developing novel nanoscopic manipulation/analysis methods employing hierarchical organization in biological systems.

Single molecules of protein (or RNA) perform marvelous functions, and hence are called molecular machines. To reveal their working principles, we watch individual
molecular machines closely under an optical microscope while they are at work, adding manipulations when necessary.
