معرفی
Mijoon Lee is a Research Professor at the University of Notre Dame's Mass Spectrometry and Proteomics Facility (MSPF), with a focus on LC/MS and LC/MS/MS methods development for small molecules and peptidoglycan analysis. Her work bridges biochemical characterization of bacterial cell wall enzymes, antibiotic resistance mechanisms, and pharmacological applications.
- Education: Ph.D. in Chemistry (2002), B.S. in Chemistry (1995) - Pohang University of Science and Technology, Korea
- Appointments: 2023–present: Research Professor, 2017–2023: Associate Research Professor, 2008–2017: Assistant Professional Specialist - all at University of Notre Dame
Her research spans bacterial cell wall turnover, antibiotic resistance pathways, and proteomics. Key collaborations involve structural characterization of enzymes like penicillin-binding proteins, lytic transglycosylases, and amidases, with applications in infectious diseases and wound healing. Articles highlight interdisciplinary work in Microbiology, Pharmacology, and Chemical Biology, focusing on LC/MS methodologies, peptidoglycan analysis, and antibiotic adjuvants. Scientific contributions include mechanistic insights into β-lactam resistance and novel inhibitors for matrix metalloproteinases.
