Research interests

Our current lines of enquiry include polyglucan and starch biosynthesis in plants and microbes, and symbiosis signalling in plants. We are a multidisciplinary group that studies enzymes at the atomic level using biochemical and biophysical methods along with complementary molecular biology approaches to address physiological function. Enzymes that have been studied previously include cupins, such as oxalate-degading enzymes, and chorismate synthase.
