Bio
You-Hai Xu, PhD, is interested in the regulation of gene expression at translation level. Dr. Xu is studying the cellular effect on transgene expression in mammalian system, especially the enzyme (human acid -glucosidase) deficient ex vivo/in vivo system (Gaucher disease). He is also studying translational control mechanism of protein synthesis and associated cellular functions.
Credentials
