R
University of Delaware

Advisor: Dr. Wilfred Chen

esearch Assistant           Post-translational modifications of protein-nanocages as a universal biosensor platform



  • Successfully assembled protein nanocage based biosensors for thrombin and cancer marker detection.

  • Overcame limitations of conventional bio-nanoparticle surface decoration strategies by using bio-friendly post-translational modification techniques.

  • Achieved signal amplification by immobilizing multiple copies of sensor components on the same protein nanocage.

  • Demonstrated the modularity of input and output domains to increase the universality of the platform for multiple diagnostic and therapeutic applications.

  • Immobilized elastin-like polypeptide (ELP) on protein nanocages as purification tags to enable chromatography-free purification of assembled nanocages.

Graduate                           12/2009 – 09/2013

Advisor: Dr. Wilfred Chen
esearch Assistant
          Artificial cellulosomes construction on DNA template for efficient cellulose hydrolysis

  • Successfully utilized ease to synthesize DNA scaffolds as templates for artificial cellulosomes assembly through Zinc Finger Protein (ZFP) guided immobilization.

  • Elastin-like polypeptide was used as purification tag as well as a linker for ZFP and cellulases.

  • Observed enhancements in cellulose hydrolysis comparable with already existing protein scaffolds based artificial cellulosomes.

  • Targeting higher order-structure cellulosomes with DNA nanotechnology in anticipation of higher cellulose hydrolysis efficiency.
