嘉賓簡介

美國科學院院士Dinshaw J. Patel教授重磅加盟2019中國核酸國際論壇-肽度TIMEDOO
Dinshaw J. Patel教授現(xiàn)為美國科學院院士,美國人文與科學院院士,美國紀念斯隆-凱特琳癌癥中心教授,是RNA干擾和表觀遺傳學領域的知名結構生物學專家。Dinshaw J. Patel教授1968年獲得美國紐約大學化學博士學位,1992年成為美國紀念斯隆-凱特琳癌癥中心教授,并著手建立結構生物學平臺。從2000年開始轉型用X射線衍射晶體學技術,結合其他生物化學和生物物理學手段來探尋生物體內有重要調控功能,并與疾病密切相關的生物大分子的結構和功能。2004年獲得美國哥倫比亞大學終身教授職位,在之后的8年里一直從事用核磁共振技術探索核酸與靶向核酸藥物的結構生物學研究。2015年11月,Dinshaw J. Patel教授受邀成為南方科技大學生物系的講座教授。Dinshaw J. Patel教授發(fā)表過500余篇論文和綜述,從其2003年至今的論文摘錄里,每年都有大量的文章發(fā)表在Nature、 Science、 Cell等國際權威學術期刊上。

? ? 主要研究項目? ??

一、RNA沉默
Dinshaw J. Patel教授實驗室的長期研究目標包括:(1)通過Dicer的核酸內切酶活性將長雙鏈RNA加工成siRNAs;(2)在RNA誘導的沉默復合物(RISC)中,Argonaute(表現(xiàn)出切割活性的關鍵組分)可誘導向導鏈介導的靶RNA裂解。Dinshaw J. Patel教授還對(3)沿著microRNA (miRNA)生物發(fā)生通路的蛋白-RNA復合物感興趣,這些復合物介導初級miRNAs加工為其前體對應物,以及與miRNA向導鏈介導的靶RNAs裂解、翻譯抑制或降解相關的過程。

piRNA生物發(fā)生
piRNAs是后生動物生殖細胞中各種轉座因子轉錄和轉錄后抑制的指導因子。目前的工作是了解蛋白質和相關RNAs在piRNA生物發(fā)生機制中的作用。

二、CRISPR-Cas Endonucleses
基于利用CRISPR-Cas系統(tǒng)可編程的dsDNA裂解技術,可以實現(xiàn)高效和位點特異性基因組工程。單組分Cas和多組分級聯(lián)復合物的結構研究為dsDNA和RNA靶標的裂解化學機理提供了新的思路。未來的挑戰(zhàn)包括了解不同的CRISPR-Cas系統(tǒng)在努力擴展和增強其作為基因組編輯工具的適用性時所采用的各種機制。目前還在努力對涉及進化噬菌體抑制蛋白的識別原理提供結構性的解釋,這些蛋白抑制CRISPR-Cas通路,從而調節(jié)CRISPR-Cas系統(tǒng)的基因組工程活性。
