Conducted laboratory experiments to support ongoing research projects and validate hypotheses.

Currently researching the role of MMS21 in alleviating oncogene-induced replication stress and genomic instability in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

Developing a plasmid-shuffling system incorporating ligase-deficient mms21Δ22 mutants and a MAD1Δ strain replaced with the selectable marker KanMX.

Modeled oncogene-induced replication stress using a galactose-inducible CLN2 overexpression system in S. cerevisiae.

Discovered that under CLN2-overexpressed conditions, ligase-deficient mms21 mutants exhibit significantly reduced growth compared to wild-type, demonstrating Mms21’s essential role in resisting replication stress.

Maintained accurate records of experimental results and prepared comprehensive reports for review meetings.
