Research Interests

Research in the Jenner Lab focuses on the application of mass spectrometry, in combination with other analytical and structural techniques, to solve complex biological problems.

Our primary interest concerns the enzymes involved in the biosynthesis of polyketide and non-ribosomal peptide natural products – this includes a fundamental understanding of their structures, mechanisms and protein-protein interactions. Our key research themes are:

  • Enzymology of Polyketide Synthases and Non-Ribosomal Peptide Synthetases
  • Mapping Carrier Protein Interactions in Biosynthetic Systems
  • Genomics-Driven Natural Product Discovery & Biosynthetic Pathway Elucidation

Scientific Inspiration

Richard P. Feynman. His ability to distil complex ideas down to simple principles – truly ‘The Great Explainer’.
