Research topics: Unraveling the mechanisms that govern the correct assembly of protein complexes

Keyword

Summary: In our cells, a wide variety of proteins perform essential functions that support cellular activities, often as components of protein complexes rather than individually. This study seeks to understand the mechanisms through which newly synthesized proteins associate with their appropriate partners, assembling correctly and efficiently into functional protein complexes within the densely crowded intracellular environment.

Comment

I am deeply honored to have been awarded the Inamori Research Grant. My research field has a rich history and is highly competitive, but I will strive to develop research projects that stand out for their originality.
