Research Interest
The translation/ protein biosynthesis is the second step in the central dogma which is describing the process of the conversion of the genetic information from mRNA to protein. My research is focusing on this step, including the comprehensive influences of DNA, RNA and protein factors on the protein translation process, and also the folding of newly synthesized peptides, the antibiotics etc.
