Biografi/ Biography :
Advances in sequencing techniques gave rise to the rapid increase of new sequences. Yet, resolving the protein structure is complicated and time-consuming, creating an ever-widening “Protein structure gap”. With a mission to narrow the gap using computational tools, Su Datt pursued his PhD in Bioinformatics at University College London. Obtaining a good template is key to the success of protein structure modelling. During his PhD, he developed a template searching protocol that produced higher percentages of good quality modes compared to the state-of-the-art template searching protocol. His modelling platform has been applied to model >70% of the structurally uncharacterised proteins for >14 model organisms.
After graduated from his PhD, he embarked on a study to understand the biological impacts of mutually exclusive exon splicing (MXE) in 5 different genomes. MXE-specific residues tend to be surface exposed and cluster near protein functional sites. MXEs tend to maintain the protein fold, but alter the specificity and selectivity of protein functions. These results suggest MXEs may have some important roles in cells and also in cancer. He recently acquired a research grant to study the structure of proteins found in a fungus living in Antarctica. Studying proteins found in harsh environment may lead to the finding of new enzymes that may be in industrial applications or possible bioproducts.
