The lab studies aging and disease through D-amino acids in proteins.
AboutAbout the lab
Small changes inside proteins can offer clues to aging.
The Radiation Biochemistry Lab (Takada Lab) studies the change of amino acids in proteins from the L-form to the D-form.
It aims to detect the D-amino acids that form in proteins with age, enabling early detection of age-related diseases such as cataracts and Alzheimer's disease, and to slow these diseases by suppressing the accumulation of D-amino acids.
Key terms
- age-related disease
- A disease that becomes more likely as people get older
- cataract
- A disease in which the lens of the eye becomes cloudy
ResearchResearch themes
Focusing on the change of amino acids in proteins from the L-form to the D-form, the lab aims to enable early detection of age-related diseases and to slow their progression.
