Structural Biology Regenerative Medicine Antimicrobial Resistance Development of Therapeutics Laboratory
Out research goal is to understand the causes of diseases at the molecular level and to develop patient or customized precision therapeutics. We are investigating the biological phenomena or cause of diseases via the interaction of biological molecules such as DNA, protein and metabolites by applying the structural and chemical biology approaches, which allow us to observe the molecules in detail and control their functions. Our main topics are following (1) research on the ubiquitin-dependent protein stability control of cancer related proteins and development of cancer therapeutics targeting ubiquitin pathway (2) understanding the structural and functional roles of the noncanonical DNAs in the genome and their regulation in cancers (3) development of novel antibacterial therapeutics to overcome antibiotic resistance and (4) regenerative medicine research using the patient-specific cell therapies.
