• The Tooley lab is interested in how proteins are modified and the importance of these modifications in development and disease.

• We are specifically interested in the protein modification of N-terminal methylation and the enzymes that add this modification, NRMT1 and NRMT2.

• Projects in the lab include understanding the biochemistry of these enzymes, their roles in cancer formation, and their roles in stem cell development.
