OverviewAI-generated summary
Qingle Gan's research investigates the fundamental mechanisms of protein modification and their roles in biological systems. Gan's work has explored the acetylation of specific proteins, such as aconitase isozymes, glucokinase, and phosphofructokinase isozymes, and the functional consequences of these modifications. This research utilizes genetic code expansion techniques, including the introduction of noncanonical amino acids, to enable site-specific installation of post-translational modifications. Gan has also investigated bacterial resistance mechanisms, including genome-wide screening of genes conferring resistance to oxidizing agents and antibiotics in *Escherichia coli*. Collaborations include work with Chenguang Fan, Nour Fatema, Sara Ottinger, and Carson W. Ercanbrack, resulting in multiple shared publications. Gan's scholarship metrics include an h-index of 18, with 38 total publications and over 1,000 citations.
