Project name Area Purpose
Speedy target search and drug development using siRNA expression library. Advanced Technology Development Promotion Development of siRNA expression library and screening system.
Structure Glycomics Project drug discovery A computational study of the structure-reactivity relationships in Na-adduct oligosaccharides in the collision-induced dissociation reactions
Structural Proteomics Project
Microbial monitoring technology in high precision and high sensitivity of the environment green bio prepairation now.
Genome Diversity Project drug discovery This project is being undertaken to collect genetic polymorphism information relating to model diseases (such as autoimmune diseases, diabetes, eating disorders, cancer, etc.). It also aims to develop a technique to associate disease-related or drug sensitive genes with the differences in their expression, for example, why some people have a particular medical condition such as an allergy and others do not. The results will be used to develop analysis technology and create a useful database. (Ref. http://www.nedo.go.jp/kankobutsu/pamphlets/kouhou/outline2005.pdf (P. 15))1
Biological catalysts such as rational use of energy technologies. Lifescience preparation now
Full-length Human cDNA Sequencing Project Genome Informatics The team for Long cDNA sequencing were supplied with libraries prepared by Kazusa DNA Research Institute (Kazusa), mostly 4-5kbplong cDNAs. In this project, total 7,252 clones of full-length human cDNA sequence were determined and 519,000 partial sequence data were also determined.(cited from the reports)
Speed-up for safety check project of existing chemical substance. Chemicals Management To finish safety check of existing chemical substance (approximately 28,000 categories) widely used in Japan now, we need a flood of times and funds. Therefore, we need to review the "safety check project of existing chemical substance" excuted in the past. Untill now, acquired data about degradability and accumulation property remain approximately 1,200. Evaluation data about safety is not developed enough. To speed-up safety check of chemical substance which should be tackled as quickly as possible (production・import amount 100 ton / year : about 4,000 substance ), this project develop chemical substance property prediction database with existing data and newly obtained data (about 300 substance) and with Quantitative Structure-Activity Relationship (QSAR) .

Carbon dioxide fixation using bacterium and algae / effective utilization technology development green bio To resolve geoenvironmental issue, this project aims at Carbon dioxide fixation at an efficiency of more than photonic synthesis with microscopic organism such as bacterium and algae. And we aims at development of carbon dioxide recycling technology.
