Keith Wilkinson PhD
Academic Appointment
- Professor, Department of Biochemistry, Emory University School of Medicine
Education
Degrees
- PhD from The University of Michigan
- BA from Albion College
Research
Focus
- Our laboratory concentrates on the regulation of protein amount and location in the cell. We are studying the ubiquitin-dependent proteolysis system that is responsible for regulated degradation of intracellular proteins as well as the role of ubiquitin and ubiquitin-like proteins as a targeting signal.
