OverviewAI-generated summary
S. Unnikrishnan's research focuses on understanding and developing targeted protein degradation strategies, particularly PROTACs (proteolysis-targeting chimeras), for applications in oncology. This work involves the design and optimization of these molecules to selectively eliminate proteins implicated in cancer, comparing their efficacy to other targeted degradation methods. Additionally, Unnikrishnan investigates presynaptic dysfunction, specifically the role of MUNC18-1 proteins, utilizing human induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC)-derived neurons to study and potentially rescue these neurological issues.
Broader research interests include analytical methods for food composition, plant physiology, and insect herbivore interactions. Unnikrishnan's work has resulted in 31 publications and 512 citations, with an h-index of 9. Collaborations include Md Mahfuzur Rahman, Nikitha Modupalli, and Deepak Dilip, all from the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville.
