Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are small, amino acid-based molecules with antimicrobial properties. Our research focuses on engineering E. coli to produce novel cyclic AMPs for potential clinical application as antibiotics.
Chromoproteins
Chromoproteins are proteins that naturally fold to reflect visible light, producing vibrant colors such as pink, yellow, blue, and purple. Our research focuses on engineering the amino acid sequences of these proteins to explore the potential for generating new colors and discovering novel properties.
