Biography
A. L. Burlingame is an Editor and Professor of Chemistry and Molecular and Cellular Proteomics and an principal investigator/program director Mass Spectrometry Facility in University of California
Research Interest
Some specific projects include research on the mammalian and human proteomes including large macromolecular assemblages that are dynamic, functional entities in cells. These include the signal processing protein machine, a pseudo-organelle called the postsynaptic density, and RNA/protein complexes such as the spliceosome. In addition, we study the nature and role of posttranslational modulation in cell biology including protein complexes in signaling networks such as ras, p53, and chromatin biology including DNA damage sensing.
