Role of ubiquitin biology in glycogen metabolism and associated diseases
We research the involvement of ubiquitination in glycogen biology and its role in glycogen metabolism related neurological and neuromuscular diseases. We also aim to develop appropriate therapies against these diseases using cutting-edge technologies such as gene therapy.
