Project Description

My lab is an integral part of a multi-investigator (24) and multi-institutional (18) Program Project with interdisciplinary efforts optimized to meet extreme challenges of characterizing transient and dynamic protein complexes and conformations that control the assembly and function of DNA repair machines. We are a team-based, interactive, collaborative, and energetic research group that specialize in advanced cloning, expression and protein purification technologies to support and provide consistent, high quality key reagents (including vectors, proteins and cell products) and protein partnership information to jump-start Project and Program efforts.
