A cellular view of plant metabolic networks

We aim to holistically decipher plant metabolic networks to tackle the impending challenges of changing climate, food security, and availability of sustainable energy sources

Subcellular localization of enzymes

Advances in our understanding of plant metabolism have underpinned many traits that improve plant productivity. To quantify, model, predict, and engineer desirable metabolic traits -- such as maximizing biomass production under suboptimal conditions or reallocating biomass from carbohydrates to lipids -- we must decode the complex metabolic networks. Subcellular compartmentalizing of metabolic reactions through the locations of enzymes is critical to understanding, modeling, and engineering plant metabolism. Our team will create a high-quality subcellular map of small molecule metabolism in Sorghum and Brachypodium.
