Projects
1. Protein regulation of metal functionality and therapeutic potential
2. Using peptides for selective metal delivery
3. Synergizing titanium(IV) and iron chelators in an anticancer drug design strategy to attack the bioavailability of iron in cancer cells
4. With the emergency of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Tinoco laboratory will be embarking on a mission to apply the functional tunability of metal-protein interactions for the development of a specific drug against SARS-COV-2. To this end, we will explore the development of albumin-fatty acid-metal complexes operate in a multimodal fashion to attack SARS-COV-2 and inhibit its aggressive spreading.
