研究领域

The goal of our research is to understand molecular mechanisms of redox-based regulation of protein function and the regulation by redox systems of complex physiological processes. To achieve these goals, we develop and apply new technologies that cut across the traditional boundaries of chemical and biological sciences. Chemical Tools to Map Redox Signaling Pathways Oxidative thiol modifications have emerged as a central mechanism for dynamic post-translational regulation of all major protein classes and correlate with many disease states. We focus on the development and application of chemoselective probes as tools to profile these modifications in cell-based systems and to identify biomarkers of oxidative stress. Thiolproteomic Technologies New methods for comprehensive and quantitative analysis of the "thiol" proteome are being developed and applied to the discovery of cellular signaling networks and regulatory mechanisms that involve oxidation of protein cysteine residues. Redox-Dependent Kinase and Phosphatase Inhibitors Our lab is taking a rational design approach toward the development irreversible, small-molecule inhibitors that target the oxidized forms of functionally important cysteine residues in kinases and phosphatases. Microbial Sulfur Metabolism Projects in this area focus on pathways of sulfur metabolism in human pathogens, such as Mycobacterium tuberculosis and the study of enzymes that are critical for virulence and survival using a range of chemical, biochemical, structural, and computational techniques.
