Research Area

Our group major interesting is on the study of microalgae molecular biology and genetic engineering. Now we focus on the field of genomic and proteomic of red bloom algae, base on the gene regulation and protein interaction, study the cell suspension mechanism of microalgae, egMicrocystis. We study and do well in the cyanobacteria genetic engineering. The transgeneSpirulina has obtained the transgene safety certificate which permit applied on medical and fodder field.
