Sacks' Laboratory

Welcome to the website of the Sacks' laboratory! Our research focuses primarily on intracellular signal transduction regulated by scaffold proteins and Ca2+-sensing proteins. Current projects seek to identify new binding partners to those proteins, and to explore functional implications in cellular functions, physiology, and pathology. The research integrates an array of cell biology, biochemistry, and molecular biology techniques.
