Daeyoup Lee is a professor at KAIST, specializing in chromatin biology. His research explores the molecular mechanisms governing chromatin structure, function, and regulation in both eukaryotic and viral systems. His work investigates how chromatin remodeling complexes, histone modifications, and transcription factors interact to control gene expression. Key areas of focus include the role of chromatin in viral replication, transcriptional regulation, and epigenetic modifications. His publications highlight the interplay between chromatin dynamics and cellular processes such as DNA repair, cell cycle control, and cancer progression. Lee's research also examines the impact of histone variants and post-translational modifications on chromatin stability and function.
