Major Research Interests
My major research interests involve protein structure/function
relationships, in particular folding and assembly of multisubunit protein complexes such
as tubulin. One current area of emphasis is the molecular genetics and structural analysis
of phosphatidylinositol transfer proteins. This is a collaborative effort with George M. Helmkamp, Jr. . I am also interested in heat shock
proteins and their relationship to stress and aging in the heart.
