  • Discovered the mechanism by which the extracytoplasmic linker peptide controls the kinase activity of the sensor protein SaeS in response to host signals and is critical for S.
  • aureus's virulence in mice.

Postdoctoral Research Associate
January 2011 to January 2013
Rice University
  • Laboratory of Prof.
  • Kwang Cheol Jeong Investigated host-pathogen interaction and biological roles of effector proteins in Enterohaemorrhagic E.
  • coli (EHEC).
  • Discovered the mechanism of antibacterial activity of chitosan microparticles against various pathogenic bacteria and implications on the treatment of infectious diseases.

Postdoctoral Research Associate
January 2006 to January 2011
  • Laboratory of Prof.
  • Eduardo A.
  • Groisman Led, designed, and executed research projects to investigate the molecular mechanisms of two-component signal transduction systems and gene regulation in Salmonella typhimurium.
  • Engineered bacterial strains, generated mutant alleles, designed and developed biochemical and cell-based assays to examine biological roles of histidine kinases in controlling gene expression.
  • Designed, overproduced and purified mutant proteins to examine their biochemical activities using radioisotopes (in vivo and in vitro kinase and phosphatase, nucleotide binding studies, EMSA, transcription assays) Discovered and characterized a mechanism of intrinsic negative feedback whereby a change in the opposing biochemical activities of a bifunctional histidine kinase results in differential gene expression, which has implications for the diverse cellular events that depends on the enzyme's function.
  • Determined a new mechanism of gene regulation whereby a transcriptional factor H-NS controls the timing and level of expression of horizontally acquired genes.
