The Laboratory of Biochemistry and Genetics uses molecular genetics, biochemical techniques, and physical chemical approaches, to study a diverse range of topics related to disease and health. These include: prions (infectious proteins) in yeast; the roles of chaperones and other components in yeast prions; centrosome replication and function; gamete development, meiosis, and fertilization; molecular crowding; biosynthesis of polyamines and their roles in translation and other functions; and bacterial pathogenesis and antibiotic râesistance in ulcer disease.âââ
