Description of research in the laboratory of Dr. R. Mahalakshmi:

The goal of research in my laboratory is to identify a functional link between proteostasis, membrane protein remodelling and quality control, and occurrence of disease states. My laboratory is equipped with state-of-the-art facility for spectroscopic, electrophysiology, and biochemical studies. I combine biophysical studies with functional assays to obtain a complete understanding of membrane protein behavior. For further details, please visit our department website or click here .
