Adjoa O. Bonsu

OverviewAI-generated summary

Adjoa O. Bonsu's research focuses on understanding the molecular mechanisms of bacterial collagenases, particularly their interaction with collagen and the process of proteolysis. Her work has investigated the structural basis for how bacterial collagenase harnesses collagen geometry for efficient cleavage. She has contributed to determining the crystal structure of the S1 domain of collagenase H and developing a SAXS-derived enveloped structure of its binding domains complexed with minicollagen.

Her research employs techniques such as cryo-electron microscopy and X-ray scattering to elucidate protein structure and dynamics. Bonsu collaborates with researchers including Josh Sakon, Mahmoud Moradi, and Nicholas Henderson at the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville. Her scholarly output includes two publications with an h-index of 1 and 1 citation.
