Research introduction
- In addition to searching for novel life phenomena and various latent faculties in microorganisms, we are carrying out basic research to identify the function of enzymes/proteins that are involved in such phenomena at the molecular level. Also, applied research is carried out for the biotechnological application of such microorganisms and the production of useful substances.
