　　长期从事生物化学与分子生物学研究。目前主要以tRNA和相关氨基酰-tRNA合成酶为对象核酸与酶的相互作用研究。氨基酰-tRNA合成酶是蛋白质生物合成过程中的关键酶，它催化蛋白质生物合成过程中的第一步反应-tRNA氨基酰化反应。氨基酰-tRNA合成酶对tRNA的精确识别保证了遗传信息由核酸传递到蛋白质的精确性，所以研究tRNA与氨基酰-tRNA合成酶的相互作用具有重要的生物学意义。随着研究的深入，该项研究还可以为人类的疾病防止和治疗、改善人类生存环境提供理论依据和新的思路。

　　研究组已发表研究论文120余篇。研究结果2400余次被包括《生物化学年鉴》和《细胞》中的综述，《美国科学院院报》，《欧洲分子生物学组织杂志》和《分子细胞》等学术刊物的研究论文引用。研究组与法国，加拿大，美国等多家实验室有合作研究关系。
