AboutAbout the lab
Understanding life phenomena through protein solutions
The Protein Science Lab studies solutions in which proteins are dissolved.
Protein solutions are involved in controlling familiar foods such as egg white, stabilizing biopharmaceuticals, activating enzymes, and developing cosmetics.
The lab calls the framework that organizes ways of viewing solutions and compiles design methods for stabilization, activation, and aggregation control "protein solution science."
On the lab's website, it is presented under the name "Shiraki-Ura Lab."
Key terms
- Protein solution science
- A framework that organizes ways of viewing protein solutions and compiles design methods such as stabilization, activation, and aggregation control.
- Phase separation biology
- The lab's name for the study of life phenomena considered from the viewpoint of protein solutions.
ResearchResearch themes
The lab organizes perspectives that help in understanding protein solutions, and has built them into a framework of solution design methods such as stabilization, activation, and aggregation control. It calls the study of life phenomena from the viewpoint of protein solutions "phase separation biology," and says it is also related to controlling the function of proteins that give rise to life phenomena inside cells.
