  Subject Areas on Research

  • Brain ligatin: a membrane lectin that binds acetylcholinesterase. 
  • Congenital hemolytic anemias and red cell enzyme deficiencies. 
  • Definitive prenatal diagnosis for type III glycogen storage disease. 
  • Engineering of glucose-stimulated insulin secretion and biosynthesis in non-islet cells. 
  • Expression of glucokinase in cultured human muscle cells confers insulin-independent and glucose concentration-dependent increases in glucose disposal and storage. 
  • L-glutamine D-fructose-6-P aminotransferase regulation by glucose-6-P and UDP-N-acetylglucosamine. 
  • Ribose metabolism and nucleic acid synthesis in normal and glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase-deficient human erythrocytes infected with Plasmodium falciparum. 
  • The beta-phosphoro[35S]thioate analogue of UDP-Glc is efficiently utilized by the glucose phosphotransferase and is relatively resistant to hydrolytic degradation.
