Chemistry and Biochemistry Fall Seminar Series: Dr. Natarajan Kannan, University of Georgia

Conference/Seminar

"Evolutionary Clues to Protein Structural Mechanisms" Natarajan Kannan is associate professor in the Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology and the Institute of Bioinformatics at the University of Georgia. His pioneering research addresses the evolutionary systems biology of protein kinases, which are enzymes that turn signals on and off in cells—a critical part of cell communication. Protein kinases are involved in a range of diseases from malaria to cancer. Kannan develops computational and experimental approaches to understand how natural sequence variation contributes to functional variation in protein kinases and how non-natural variation contributes to disease.
