Welcome to Marianna Török’s Biochemistry Research Laboratory at the Department of Chemistry, University of Massachusetts Boston. The research in our group focuses on the mechanism and control of protein misfolding associated with human diseases, including Alzheimer’s disease. Particular emphasis is placed on the self–assembly of amyloid b (Ab) peptide, and the biomedical applications of the information gained from these studies. We are also interested in finding alternative environmentally benign (green) methods for the synthesis of peptides and peptide-based biomaterials. |
