RESEARCH EXPERIENCE
Project leader, Therapeutic protein lab of CEE department of the UCR May. 2013 -present
Project: Using yeast surface display to select the antibodies which functionally inhibit the Matrix Metalloproteinase14 ( MMP14)
Clone different anti-MMP14 antibody gene libraries to plasmid pCTCON-2 and transform to the yeast cells
Produce fluorescence MMP14 and N-TIMP2,
Express anti-MMP14 antibodies at the yeast surface which then detected by ELISA, microscope and FACscan
Antibodies and antigen MMP-14 immunology reactions, and fluorescence was scanned by FACS
Project leader, Therapeutic protein lab of CEE department of the UCR Feb. 2013 - Apr.2013
Project: Antigen and inhibitor protein expression and inhibition test of N-terminal domain of tissue inhibitor of
metalloproteinases 2 (N-TIMP2)
Clone N-TIMP2 gene into plasmid pET32a, and express, purify and refolding N -TIMP-2
Test antigen Matrix Metalloproteinase14 ( MMP14) and N-TIMP2 inhibition reaction by FRET assay, get IC50 32 nM and
observe the fluorescence by spectrophotometer
Produce inhibition product N-TIMP2-MMP14 complex and analyze the crystal structure about residue interactions by pymol
Project assistant, Erythromycin fermentation lab of the ECUST Aug. 2011 - Mar.2012
Project: Kinetic constants and model equations of growth and production for the Saccharopolyspora HE1086E3 during different
growth phases by Matlab
Culture the cells in 5L fermenter for 48 h, and test the productions by HPLC
Simulate the final equation to get the constants by Matlab, and compare the simulation curve wit h the theory curve.
Optimize the conditions for the fermentation and achieve better production
