Our research involves the chemical biology of protein post-translational modifcations (PTMs) in the context of signaling, epigenetics, and cancer. We develop and apply chemical approaches including protein semisynthesis and small molecule probes to the...
The focus of our research is the discovery of new enzymatic and non-enzymatic chemistry in living systems. We are particularly inspired by the breadth of reactions used by microorganisms in both primary and secondary metabolism. Microbes are Nature’s...
