Chemical conversion of tyrosine in proteins to DOPA
I and Dr. Talia Miron are currently working on polymerization of tyrosine containing proteins and peptides in order to produce bioadhesives similar to marine organisms. e.g. mussels and barnacles. We also continue to work on affinity chromatography and immobilization techniques.
