Scholar-generated biography
Chunyi Hu is a researcher at the National University of Singapore whose work focuses on CRISPR/Cas, RNA, Telomere, Epigenetics, and Structural biology. His research explores the structural basis of CRISPR-Cas systems, including RNA-guided DNA cleavage and the regulation of methyltransferases. Hu's studies also investigate telomere maintenance through the TIN2-TPP1-TRF2 complex and the role of NBS1 phosphorylation in telomere repair. Additionally, he has contributed to the development of CRISPR-based tools for genome editing and nucleic acid detection. His work highlights the interplay between RNA and protein interactions in epigenetic regulation and structural biology.
