We investigate the protein complexes and mechanisms that regulate genome organization throughout the cell cycle, and we study the consequences of disrupting DNA organization during development and for disease pathogenesis. We also study the role of retrotransposons in DNA organization, development and disease pathogenesis.
Our lab develps DNA-based nanoscale lipid bilayer mimetics for the structure determination of membrane proteins by cryo-electron microscopy. Moreover, we study mechanical properties of tightly bent DNA that govern biological processes including transcription, gene regulation and packing in the nucleus.
