We are interested in the chemical biology of metabolism as a mediator of the host-pathogen interaction. We focus specifically on Mycobacterium tuberculosis and its ability to both asymptomatically infect and cause disease in humans.

We investigate (1) how UBR5, a novel protein ubiquitin ligase frequently altered in human cancers, promotes tumor metastasis by regulating epithelial to mesenchymal transition (EMT) in a cell intrinsic manner;(2) to identify UBR5’s E3 ...

My research focuses on deciphering the role of exosomes in mediating the crosstalk between the host immune system and the tumor, and the mechanisms through which exosomes coax the immune system to contribute to ...
