Areas of specialization |
- Organic synthesis, especially asymmetric synthesis
and total synthesis of natural products
- Peptides and peptidomimetics
- Drug design and Molecular Modeling
|
|
|
| Major
Research Activities |
- Development of new designer molecules based on sugar
amino acids and related multifunctional building blocks,
studying their three-dimensional structures and properties,
such as transporting ions or molecules across membranes,
anion binding by directed hydrogen bonding interactions,
and development of artificial receptors to carry out
in vitro studies of various molecular recognition
processes.
- Peptidomimetics, peptide conformations and secondary
structures, structure-activity relationship studies.
- Synthetic organic chemistry with special emphasis
on asymmetric synthesis and total synthesis of polyketide
based macrolides as well as acyclic natural products.
- Total synthesis of other biologically active natural
products like peptides, cyclic peptides and peptides
having "unnatural" amino acids, peptide-based
enzyme inhibitors, etc.
