研究领域:

化学生物学,天然产物合成,合成生物学,创新药物研发

研究方向:

小分子影响了许多重要的生物过程,因此它们可以被认为是生物中心法则的另一个重要的组成成分。具有生物活性的小分子可以是通过自然进化选择的天然产物,也可以是通过有机合成制造的药物分子和化学探针。我们课题组致力于发展和应用新颖的活性小分子和化学技术去系统深入地研究重要生命过程,阐明与人类重大疾病密切相关的生物信号转导通路中新的分子作用机制,去验证全新的药物靶点,从而帮助解决重大生物医学难题。具体研究内容包括以下五个方面:
  • 利用化学生物学手段研究与人类重大疾病(如:癌症,感染性疾病,神经退行性疾病等)相关的生物通路分子作用机制和调控方法;
  • 开展复杂天然产物合成研究,并且运用活性天然产物发现新的生物靶点和阐明新的生物作用机制;
  • 研究复杂天然产物生物合成,揭示新的酶学机制,并且综合运用合成化学与合成生物学手段高效制备天然产物来源的药物分子;
  • 开发新一代高效的生物相容反应,并且利于化学交联结合质谱技术系统研究复杂蛋白质结构和蛋白-蛋白相互作用;
  • 寻找和发现新的药物靶点,利用药物化学手段开发创新型药物。
