Our goal is to understand complex cell biological processes in the detailed quantitative manner with which chemists understand conventional enzymatic reactions. We then use this information to discover novel regulatory principles and to develop strategies to interfere in cellular processes therapeutically or to engineer cellular metabolism. Currently, the focus of the lab is on developing a quantitative understanding of the Ubiquitin Proteasome System in the cell and on applying this information to treat human disease.
