Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Ahmed Shubbar's research program investigates molecular mechanisms relevant to neurological disorders and drug resistance. He employs a combination of computational and experimental techniques, including molecular dynamics simulations and single-molecule Förster resonance energy transfer (smFRET) spectroscopy. His work has explored the potential of dual monoamine oxidase B and acetylcholine esterase inhibitors for treating movement and cognition deficits in a C. elegans model of Parkinson's disease. Shubbar also studies the P-glycoprotein transport cycle to understand and potentially reduce anti-cancer drug resistance, investigating its lipid-dependent conformational changes. Further research includes examining the structural dynamics of sphingosine kinase 1 regulation and inhibition, and the protonation- and substrate-regulated dimer opening that couples brain-type creatine kinase to vesicular and actin-remodeling membranes. Shubbar has published 11 papers, with an h-index of 2, and collaborates with researchers at the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville, including Hope Woods and Mahmoud Moradi.
