carry out basic biomedical research in the laboratory of D r. Richard G. Brennan. using a slew of biochemical approaches as well as structural studies to test the hypothesis that the transcription factor , MtrR from Neisseria gonorrhoeae, is a cellular sensor for the presence of reactive oxygen species (ROS). ROS damage biomolecules and the cell must provide an appropriate defence response to fend off cell injury or death. MtrR has four cysteines residues, one or more of which we hypothesize reacts with ROS to allow the upregulation of multiple ge nes involved in the Neisserial defence responseMinimum Qualifications
