I am developing technologies for the production of various useful substances such as pharmaceutical proteins (e.g., antibodies and cytokines) in plants. In particular, I am conducting research on the basic technologies necessary for the production of substances by plants (control of glycan structures that modify proteins, highly efficient expression technology of recombinant genes, endogenous gene suppression, etc.).
