[Research Interest]

Life is controlled by a milieu of macromolecular interactions. We focus on understanding structural basis for protein interactions and their applications using a variety of biophysical and biochemical techniques such as crystallography and solution scattering as well as standard techniques in molecular cell biology. We study proteins interactions in ubiquitin signaling, host-pathogen relationship and abiotic stress response signaling. We also develop mini-antibody based bionano sensors for both diagnostic and therapeutic purposes.

[Research Interest]

We are interested in the development of bioactive molecules that can be used to treat infectious or inflammatory diseases. Our major target diseases include polymicrobial sepsis, rheumatoid arthritis, inflammatory bowel disease, and colon cancer. To generate useful target molecules that can be used to develop therapeutic agents against these infectious or inflammatory diseases, we are focusing on several chemoattractant G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs). Since leukocyte trafficking in vivo is a crucial event that modulate immune and inflammatory responses, and chemotactic GPCRs mediate these response, the receptors can be considered as important primary targets to control infectious or inflammatory disorders. Currently, we are testing the effects and mechanism of action of chemotactic GPCR ligands against these diseases in experimental animal models.
