Mechanism and control of chromosome segregation in yeast. The research in our laboratory is centered on two cellular processes that are of fundamental importance in the eukaryotic cell cycle - chromosome segregation…
We have two major research interests: DNA Transposable Elements and Bacterial Signaling & Motility. (1) Transposable Phage Mu and E. coli Genome Organization. DNA transposition is…
Dr. Huibregte's lab studies the biochemistry of the ubiquitin proteolysis system, a major pathway for degradation of proteins in eukaryotic cells. In this pathway, the small protein, ubiquitin, is covalently…
We study the mechanisms by which extra-genomic nucleic acid elements evolve to become stably propagating entities in the host population. We use a common high copy number plasmid in yeast, the 2 micron circle, as a…
The Lambowitz Lab studies gene expression, RNA splicing, catalytic RNAs, and retroviral genetic elements, including possible ancestors of the AIDS and leukemia viruses. They recently discovered a novel mechanism for…
The main interests of this laboratory are in understanding the interactions of bacteria and their parasites, both plasmids and bacteriophages. Three major lines of research are being followed, all using…
