Research at the Bioanalytics & Intermediary Metabolism, Institute of Biochemistry, University of Innsbruck, Austria
Our research aims to elucidate molecular mechanisms at the interface of metabolism and protein function in the context of cellular homeostasis, systems biology, epigenetics, cancer and metabolic diseases. The Kwiatkowski lab specialises in mass spectrometry-based cross-omics. This includes state-of-the-art proteomics, metabolomics and metabolic flux analysis. We combine cross-omics with computational modelling, cell and molecular biology to study the regulatory interplay between cellular metabolism and protein modifications. Our technological advances have always been driven by research questions that cannot be addressed with current tools, from basic biochemistry to personalised medicine and applied biotechnology. We are currently investigating the cellular dynamics of hub metabolites (CoA, acetyl-CoA & acyl-CoAs, SAM, NAD, ATP) and how these molecules control protein modification signatures (acylation, methylation, phosphorylation) and regulatory circuits.
