研究方向
微生物来源的天然产物为人类健康作出了巨大贡献。1945年和1952年的诺贝尔医学与生理学奖分别颁给了青霉素（penicillin）和链霉素（streptomycin）的发现，而在60多年后的2015年，诺贝尔医学与生理学奖又颁给了阿维霉素（avermectin）和青蒿素（artemisinin）的发现。在这四个获奖天然产物里除了青蒿素外其余三个均来源于微生物。而在微生物里面，放线菌又是天然药物的重要来源，比如抗癌药物放线菌素（dactinomycin）和博来霉素（bleomycin）、抗菌药物万古霉素（vancomycin）和达托霉素（daptomycin）都是放线菌中发现的、未经过化学修饰直接成药的天然产物。
我们的科学研究聚焦在放线菌中结构复杂或生物活性特异的天然产物的生物合成。我们将运用微生物学、分子生物学、生物化学、结构生物学、生物信息学以及天然产物化学多学科交叉的技术方法，阐明放线菌基因组DNA中哪些基因负责天然产物的生物合成、这些基因编码的蛋白质在生物合成中催化何种反应以及如何催化这些反应、生物体是如何使这些酶促反应按照严格的次序进行下去的、如何人工改造生物合成途径使生物体产生结构更复杂或生物活性更特异的天然产物类似物等等。相关研究内容可简述为以下五个方面：
（1）对天然产物生物合成基因进行敲除，通过对突变体化学表型进行分析，考察基因敲除对生物合成途径的影响，进而推测基因的功能。
（2）对生物合成基因进行异源表达，对编码蛋白质进行纯化，构建体外酶活表征体系以验证基因的功能并揭示酶催化反应中对底物的位置和立体选择性。
（3）对生物合成基因编码蛋白质进行晶体结构研究，尤其侧重蛋白质-蛋白质或蛋白质-底物复合物晶体结构研究，进而阐释酶催化反应的具体机制。
（4）在阐明生物合成途径的基础上，对生物合成途径进行人工改造或组合生物合成研究，以产生结构更复杂或生物活性更特异的天然产物类似物。
（5）在已有的各类天然产物生物合成机制的阐明基础上，运用基因组挖掘技术对新颖的天然产物进行探索发现。
通过以上各项研究，我们拟发现天然产物生物合成研究中新的化学和生物学现象，为天然产物研究的整体发展作出贡献。
