研究領域與專長

我們致力於細菌細胞分裂機制的研究，以生長分裂過程的細胞骨架功能和細胞膜-蛋白質交互作用為研究重點。說明如下：

  1. 小細胞系統振盪現像與膜蛋白定位

    大腸桿菌利用小細胞系統對細胞分裂位點進行精準的空間調控。小細胞系統由三個蛋白質組成，附著於細胞膜表層，在桿狀細胞的兩個端點間來回振盪，用以建立促使自細胞中點進行分裂的濃度梯度。小細胞系統蛋白MinD及MinE具有在細胞膜上進行自組裝的能力，當有充足腺苷三磷酸供應時，會在細胞膜上持續進行規律的泳動，形成中尺度圖樣。過去我們對小細胞系統蛋白的自組裝能力及與細胞膜的交互作用進行生化特性探討，並結合顯微影像技術及體外重建的仿生膜系統，用以了解小細胞系統蛋白與細胞膜交互作用於時間與空間上的變化。
    除已知的分裂隔板定位功能外，近期我們發現小細胞系統於細胞膜上的振盪現像，能影響數種蛋白質於細胞膜上的定位，進而假設小細胞系統能調節附著性膜蛋白於細胞質與細胞膜之間的存在平衡態，藉此調節蛋白質功能。目前我們正針對此假說進行驗證。

  2. 細胞膜的物化性質與分裂蛋白的分佈動態關係

    以仿生膜系統研究蛋白質與細胞膜交互作用，可釐清生化條件與隨時間及空間變化的交互作用關係。因此我們透過合作，發展可用於分離及檢測膜蛋白的仿生膜平台，預期對不同形狀、表面電性、及掛膜方式的膜蛋白進行分佈動態的定性及定量分析。

  3. 細菌生理與抗藥機制

    研究細菌生理是了解病原細菌產生抗藥性及尋找新型抗生素的基礎。於上述研究中我們發現細菌內膜的平衡態會影響細菌對抗生素的敏感度以及代謝功能。因此希望透過對細菌外套及關鍵代謝酵素的研究，尋找克服細菌抗藥性的方法。
