Biography
Paul R Ortiz de Montellano laboratory investigates the mechanisms of heme proteins, the roles they play, and approaches for their inhibition in therapeutic situations of enzymes in both humans and bacteria that have heme groups. Her studies in my laboratory employ a diversity of techniques, including organic synthesis, molecular biology, enzymology, and multiple spectroscopic techniques. We frequently collaborate with laboratories that have complementary expertise in organic synthesis, X-ray crystallography, NMR, or resonance Raman spectroscopy.
