My lab is currently researching these topics:

• A novel bacterial route for the synthesis of glutathione: A multifunctional fused protein (GshF) integrates the two primary catalytic activities.
• Development of new selective and essential targets for antibiotics, and their use in specific drug discovery programs.
• The Ribonucleotide reductase system of Staphylococcus aureus and Streptomyces coelicolor.
• Studies on control of bacterial gene expression by “riboswitch” mechanisms.
