Biography
substrate recognition and regulation of epigenetic enzymes as well as modification regulation mechanism of enzymeYang Huirong (1981-) associate professor. Doctor of Fudan University. Dr. Yang focuses on mechanisms for substrate recognition and regulation of epigenetic enzymes as well as modification regulation mechanism of enzyme itself in field. Representative achievements: For the first time discover dual substrate binding sites of histone demethylase LSD2, providing a platform for design of specific inhibitors of histone demethylase. She has been funded by NSFC program, a project sponsored by Shanghai Nature Fund and supported by Shanghai Pujiang Talent Program with research funds of RMB 530 thousand; publish 13 SCI indexed papers in Cell Research, Cell Cycle,Mol Cell, etc.
