Biography

Dr. Panisko currently uses proteomic and molecular biology methods to study fungal morphology and hyperproductivity. She is experienced with stable isotope labeling strategies and affinity purification of peptides for mass spectral analysis. One of her current projects focuses on the contribution of technical and biological variability to relative protein concentration determined by high throughput proteome analyses. Her graduate and postdoctoral research experience has included expression of heterologous proteins in plant tissues and investigating the kinetics of a tricarboxylic acid cycle enzyme in Saccharaomyces cerevisiae. In 2002, she became a member of the Fungal Biotechnology team.
