We are developing molecules that control life

 

Our team aims to engineer functional bio-macromolecules applicable to medical and basic biological researches, by integrating technologies in synthetic and structural biology including in vitro evolution of protein/RNA, X-ray crystallography, and structure based protein engineering. We are also trying to experimentally reconstruct evolutionary pathway from primordial peptides to elaborate proteins.
