研究

The RiboLin group is applying state-of-the-art methods to design protein for practical applications. These fascinating and complex problems require contributions from disciplines that include the structure biology and molecular biology. The motivation for using the methods of domain swapping in protein engineering to design a new protein with an add-on-function arises from two principles:
(1) the correlation between the 3-D structure and function of a given protein, and
(2) the basic understanding on the protein-RNA interaction. Withstanding these principles, we have found that a variety of useful proteins can be generated, including enzyme with greatly improved stability, the ability to carry out reactions on a new substrate. Another interest of The RiboLin group is the study of the molecular trafficking of eukaryotic ribosome components. This includes the understanding of how eukaryotic ribosomal components involve in the binding of the endoplasmic reticulum and the nuclear transportation of ribosomal components.
