Research Interests

 

Although Chemistry and Biochemistry are traditionally experimental sciences, the important role of computational investigations in these disciplines is becoming increasingly apparent. As computer hardware and software continue to advance, scientists are becoming ever more aware of the useful ways in which computational research can compliment and even guide experimental studies.

 

As the title of my Scientific Project (Computational Studies of Protein Structure and Function) indicates, my own research interests within this field are quite broad. This page is intended to provide some details of the particular projects on which I am currently working.

 

 

The Substrate Mechanism of Pyruvate Formate-Lyase (PFL)

 

The Structure and Interactions of Small Peptides

 

 

The Role and Reactivity of Ketyl Radical Anions in Anaerobic Bacteria

 

 

The Biosynthesis of (5R)-Carbapenem
