General Research Interests
Life time research interest: Ageing (Biological Gerontology)
Life time main occupation: Philosophy (Biosophy)
* Personal Genomics:
SNPs
* Pathogen-host interaction analysis at genomic/proteomic scale.
This work is on a large-scale pathogenic interaction studies using protein-protein interaction information.
* Structural Interactomics (the whole biomolecular structural interaction network construction and analysis. Mainly proteins and their ligands). This is a high resolution structural analysis of interactome. It defines precisely the structural patterns and topologies of protein and chemical domains using computer algorithms developed by us. (Park, et al., 2001, JMB). (Http://interactomics.org/)
* Network Biology (mapping and archiving biological entities such as sequences, structures and genomes using search algorithms and methodologies developed by my group). This is more toward evolutionary and computational analysis of biological spaces (protein space, etc). It is computational and mathematical. (Review article: Park, 2002, IEEE, Intelligent systems). (Http://networkbiology.org/)
* Computational Bioenergetics (constructing databases for energy metabolism related genes and chemicals to analyze their networks and functions). We have been working on mitochondrial energy metabolism related proteins and their interactions and pathways to eventually model the biochemistry of energy metabolism.
* Geronto-Genomics (bioinformatics research of gerontology). We are constructing the databases for ageing related genes and proteins to establish a new field of gerontology where computational and genomic infrastructure is used on biological ageing problems.
* Protein Chemical (ligand) Interaction. I have been interested in the interaction between proteins and their ligands. No publishable or significant research results are available yet. However, I am quite interested in this topic and am currently negotiating a collaboration and grant with a research institute (symposium presentation: annual Korean Biochemistry society meeting, 2002. RNA and DNA binding proteins domains)
* SNP (single nucleotide polymorphism) and SAP (small number amino acid polymorphism) analysis.
* BioInfra (Construction of Bioinformatic infrastructure for large scale industrial biotechnology applications)
* Molecular Anthropology. I have been interested in analyzing ancient DNA to track the origins and migrations of ethnic groups.
* Protein and DNA chip development. I have been interested DNA chip data analysis for sometime. Now, I am interested developing and designing protein chips to detect proteins and map their interactions.
