|
| Carrico, Isaac |
Chemistry |
The research in our group centers around the concept of chemical biology. In paticular, we introduce unnatural monomers into the biopolymers of life (proteins, oligosaccharides, oligonucleotides) for the purpose of tracking or perturbing biological processes. |

Pharmacology |
Deficiencies in mitochondrial gene expression cause multiple human pathologies. Our lab combines structural, genetic and biochemical studies to understand the mechanism and function of proteins that are key for mitochondrial protein production, and investigate how the alteration of different gene expression processes can result in mitochondrial disfuction and disease. |
