Dr. Inlow's current research program reflects her long-standing interests in the relationship between protein sequence and structure, protein structure prediction, and structural bioinformatics. She is using bioinformatics tools to analyze the amino acid sequences of the enzyme tyrosinase from a variety of organisms in order to make predictions of structure and posttranslational modifications. So far, structures have been determined experimentally only for tyrosinases from a few species. Dr. Inlow is developing homology models for the structures of tyrosinases from other species and using bioinformatics methods to detect phosphorylation, proteolytic, and other posttranslational modification sites within the sequences of various plant and fungal tyrosinases to learn about the in vivo function of these enzymes.
