Dr. Yue Chen obtained his Bachelor of Science in Chemistry from Peking University in China and Ph.D. in Chemistry from the University of Texas at Arlington. After his postdoctoral fellowship research at the University of Chicago. He joined the Department of Biochemistry, Molecular Biology and Biophysics at the University of Minnesota. He is a member of Masonic Cancer Center at the University of Minnesota. His areas of interests include the biochemistry and enzymology in protein modification pathways, protein-protein interaction and protein complex analysis, functional proteomics and quantitative metabolomics, bioinformatics and chemical biology.
Yue Chen research aims to develop and apply powerful proteomic technologies in combination with biochemistry, cell biology and computational analysis to understand the dynamic profiles of the PTM networks in various diseases, and reveal the correlation between cellular metabolism and diverse PTM pathways.
