KLang Lab | Chemical Biology : Overview and News
Welcome to the Lang Group for Chemical Biology
The research of Kathrin Lang and her group is based in the interdisciplinary area between chemistry and biology. We are excited about developing tools to study and manipulate biological processes. We take a multidisciplinary approach and techniques typically span from chemical synthesis to protein engineering and cell biology. We are especially active in enabling and advancing approaches to expand the genetic code to incorporate non-canonical amino acids beyond the 20 proteinogenic amino acids into proteins and in developing in vivo chemistries that are amenable to physiological conditions, as we are convinced that such a combined approach is ideally suited to address unmet challenges in studying and manipulating biological processes.
