The Feig Laboratory

Wayne State University
Department of Chemistry

Our laboratory has a diverse set of interests spanning several areas of biochemistry and biophysics. The overall theme of the projects pertains to molecules that undergo large scale structural rearrangements as part of their biological function and/or regulation. We use a multidisciplinary approach to tackle fundamental problems in biology although some of these systems have potential practical applications in biotechnology as well.

Current lines of research include:

RNA Folding Thermodynamics

Biology and Biochemistry of non-coding RNAs and their Complexes with Hfq

Mechanistic Enzymology of Bacterial Toxins from C. difficile

Additional information on these projects can be found by pressing the Research Link on the menu bar.
