In the Pyle Lab, they focus on two related questions: (1) How do large RNAs assemble into specific, stable tertiary structures? (2) How is RNA recognized and remodeled by ATP-dependent enzymes in the cell? Their studies involve a combination of solution biochemistry, enzymology, crystallography, and cell-based functional approaches. In parallel, they develop new computational methods for solving, analyzing and predicting RNA structures.
