Expertise: My research focuses on all aspects of hydrolytic enzymes, especially Zn-metalloproteases and glycoside hydrolases in order to understand their physiological function, in disease development and molecular evolution of bacterial life in oligotrophic environments.

My research interest spans across several disciplines of biological chemistry, focusing on the following areas:

Bacterial oligotrophic metabolism

Bacterial glycoside hydrolases and Caulobacter crescentus
Plant biomass-derived renewable materials
Bioinorganic chemistry/Chemical biology/Synthetic biology
Zn-Metalloprotease

Glutamate Carboxypeptidase II functions in Caenorhabditis elegans
Membrane biochemistry
Role of metalloproteases in cell signaling and cancer metastasis.
