Virtual BSC RS/Life Session: Protein structure informs functional mechanisms and the risk of disease
Jueves, 30 Septiembre, 2021
Speakers:
Host: Alfonso Valencia, BSC Life Sciences department director
Speaker: Prof. Christine Orengo, Group Leader University College London (UCL) & President of the International Society of Computational Biology (ISCB)
Short Bio: Christine Orengo is a computational biologist, whose core research has been the development of robust algorithms to capture relationships between protein structures, sequences and functions. She has built one of the most comprehensive protein classifications, CATH, used worldwide by tens of thousands of biologists, and central to many pioneering structural and evolutionary studies.
CATH structural and functional data for hundreds of millions of proteins has enabled studies that revealed essential universal proteins and their biological roles, and extended characterisation of biological systems implicated in disease e.g. in cell division, cancer and ageing. CATH functional sites have revealed protein residues implicated in enzyme efficiency and bacterial antibiotic resistance. This data also identified genetic variations likely to be driving human diseases and the drugs that can be repurposed to offset the pathogenic effects.
Christine is President of the International Society of Computational Biology (ISCB). She is a Fellow of the Royal Society of Biology and Elected member of EMBO since 2014, a Fellow of ISCB since 2016 and a Fellow of the Royal Society since 2019. She is a co-founder of the ELIXIR 3DBioInfo Community in Structural Bioinformatics.
