Research Interests

The ADAMs (A Disintegrin And Metalloproteinase) and MMPs (Matrix Metalloproteinase) comprise large families of metalloproteases, each with a broad range of substrates and established roles in normal physiology and several diseased states. Proteolytic processing by these enzymes involves limited and highly specific cleavage of peptide bonds and can achieve activation, inactivation or completely altered substrate function. For example, ectodomain shedding can stimulate or desensitize signaling through a cell surface receptor, and highly specific cleavage of chemokines can reverse their activity. My research is focused on identifying novel targets of ADAM17 and MMP12 using proteomics methods. These include quantitative shotgun analyses, degradomics approaches and protein-protein interaction screens.
