Research in the Bachovchin lab focuses on characterizing the functions of enzymes in normal and pathological processes. In particular, we are interested in the roles that serine proteases play in cancer and immune system signaling. We use a variety of tools and approaches to study these enzymes and pathways, including new chemical probes developed in our lab, mass spectrometry-based proteomics, activity-based protein profiling, and genome engineering (CRISPR).
