■转运必需内体分选复合物(ESCRT)是一类与细胞中的膜结构的重构有关的重要蛋白复合物。其在膜蛋白降解,信号传导,病毒出芽,细胞分裂,膜损伤修复等诸多重要过程中发挥作用。我们主要研究ESCRT系统在白色念珠菌中,对其极性生长,信号转导以及膜损伤修复的作用及机理,从而理解该复合物在致病真菌的致病性上所发挥的作用以及其分子机制。
■萜类物质是目前具有最广泛多样性的天然产物。其通常可以由植物或者微生物合成,其不仅具有重要生理作用,同时在医药,食品,日化等行业有广泛应用。我们通过结合结构生物学技术,研究重要的萜烯合成酶的机理,从而理解萜类产物多样性的机制。同时,通过蛋白质工程和代谢工程技术,以研究在微生物中合成重要萜烯产物。
