研究兴趣

本课题组开展以光化学遗传学(chemo-optogenetics)为特色的化学生物学交叉学科的研究。我们发展选择性蛋白质化学修饰方法(A),化学遗传学(chemical genetics)及光化学遗传学等前沿技术(B)并结合其它生物学研究手段来探究与细胞骨架及相关蛋白有关的前沿生命科学问题。我们基于非洲爪蟾无细胞体系技术开展微管分枝成核(branching microtubule nucleation)过程以及纺锤体组装的重建研究,用于研究细胞分裂过程中保障染色体正确无误分离的纺锤体自组装过程,在分子层面探究纺锤体组装的调控机制(C)。基于对相关分子机制的深入理解,并结合实验室蛋白质(抗体)的精确修饰改造技术,期望最终研发一系列蛋白质偶联药物来治疗与基因组稳定性密切相关的疾病,如癌症等。



课题组招聘:

课题组现诚聘博士后2名、技术员2-3名。欢迎有有机化学、蛋白质化学、化学生物学、药物化学、生物化学、分子生物学、细胞免疫治疗(如CAR-T)、噬菌体展示、定向进化、基因编辑、算法实现(基于MATLABPython等)等研究背景,且对交叉学科研究有强烈兴趣的人员申请。关于申请,申请者需将一封封面信及一份个人简历发至实验室PI邮箱:chenxihit@hit.edu.cn面试通过后,一般还需再提供两位推荐人联系方式及推荐信。该招聘长期有效,直至招满为止。
