Basic Research
We aim to pursue various lines of research including the development of a method for stabilization of the enzymes and optimization of enzyme reaction condition for mass production of rare sugars, and search for new enzymes which are related to Izumoring structure, thereby leading to systematic research of all processes within the framework of Izumoring. More specifically, methods of producing all six-carbon rare sugars from D-glucose as the starting material will be developed. In addition, we also research physico-chemical characteristics of all rare sugars produced in the laboratory will be studied, and their effects on various biological organisms will be assessed. Through this research, we aim to achieve an efficient supply of rare sugars as novel raw materials for the market.
