Dunham Laboratory

Macromolecular machines involved in the regulation of translation

Welcome to the Dunham lab webpage!   Our lab’s research focus is on the important roles that RNA molecules and RNA-protein interactions play in gene expression and regulation. We primarily use the structural biology technique of X-ray crystallography to study the molecular details of protein-protein and protein-RNA recognition. Additionally, we use complementary biophysical techniques to address function in vitro.
