Biochemistry
Professor: TAKEI Kohji
Our research focuses on the shape of cells. We are investigating the dynamic changes in cell shape at the molecular level, such as neuronal differentiation, migration and invasion of cancer cells, and intracellular invasion of pathogens. We are also studying metabolic networks and the metabolism of sulfur-containing amino acids.
