Profiles in "Proteins" Expertise Area

  • Rajeev Misra is a microbial geneticist who studies how proteins, synthesized in the cytoplasm, are targeted to the bacterial outer membrane. He also examines the mechanisms of drug resistance.
  • Mor is a molecular biologist and biochemist whose research focuses on using plants to produce useful and therapeutic polypeptides, proteins and enzymes.
  • Hogue is a virologist who studies how coronaviruses, a large family of RNA viruses, that includes severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) and Middle East respiratory syndrome (MERS), assemble and cause disease.
  • Dr. Shengxi Chen focuses on developing new therapeutic agents for treatment of breast cancers; and developing new detection methods to diagnose dengue and SAR-CoV-2 RNAs . 
  • Assistant professor at ASU's School of Molecular Sciences. Wang's research interests are in studies of biophysical and biochemical mechanisms of cellular processes.
  • Brent Nannenga associate professor of chemical engineering in SEMTE. His research focuses on method development and new applications of structural biology and protein engineering
  • Zain Bukhari is involved with Dr. Wayne Frasch’s research in SoLS, using gold nanorods to analyze the biophysics of the FoF1-ATP synthase. This work is innovative, interdisciplinary, and applicable to the medical field.
