Biography and Research Information
OverviewAI-generated summary
Qinglei Gan's research focuses on the study of post-translational modifications, particularly lysine acetylation, in biological systems. Gan investigates these modifications using genetic code expansion techniques to introduce noncanonical amino acids, enabling site-specific installation of modifications and the study of their functional consequences. Publications detail the characterization of lysine acetylation in enzymes such as aconitase isozymes and glucokinase, and phosphofructokinase isozymes. Additionally, Gan's work includes genome-wide screening of resistance genes in Escherichia coli, examining both oxidizing agent resistance and antibiotic survival genes. Collaborations include work with Chenguang Fan, Nour Fatema, and Sara Ottinger at the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville, and Carson W. Ercanbrack at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences, with multiple shared publications.
