    [Lab Profile & Research Projects]

    Our laboratory is focusing on the understanding of the novel functions of intracellular proteins and underlying molecular mechanisms based on a protein engineering and structural information. In addition, we would like to extend the scientific knowledge in the laboratory to develop the druggable biomaterials using the rational molecular design technologies. Current projects are summarized as follows.

  • Development of valuable biomaterials using protein engineering and molecular design
  • Identification of novel functions and molecular mechanisms of intracellular proteins
  • Novel conceptual framework for exogenous protein delivery and degradation mechanism
  • Protein and peptide-based therapeutics targeting inflammatory pathway and vascular diseases
