Identification of molecular modulators of protein-protein interaction using bioinformatics analysis, peptide and protein chemistry,and system-wide biological assays.
CV
Dr. Kvit completed his PhD in organic chemistry at the Hebrew University, developing different strategies for the synthesis of small molecules and peptides, in solution and solid base, for various therapeutic applications.
Research
Protein-protein interactions represent a significant proportion of functionally relevant biological interactions, and therefore manipulating these interactions is an important therapeutic strategy. The main focus of the Qvit lab is the identification of molecular modulators of protein-protein interaction using bioinformatics analysis, peptide and protein chemistry, and system-wide biological assays. Our goal is the development of compounds capable of modulating protein complexes that will allow a better understanding of the role of specific protein-protein interactions in cells and will be a starting point for the development of therapeutic compounds.
