Protein Homeostasis Lab 

laboratory is interested in understanding the regulation of intracellular protein homeostasis and its alterations during stress and aging.

Research Theme

1. Elucidating the novel regulators of mitochondrial protein quality control

2. Delineation of molecular basis of Hsp70/Hsp110 chaperone function and the role of domain allostery in functionality of these molecular machines

3. Deciphering the unique chaperone function of Human Hsp60 in maintaining mitochondrial proteostasis.

 

Research Interests

Protein homeostasis, molecular chaperones, cellular stress response pathways, mitochondrial biogenesis
