I study Biochemistry and Cell Biology at the University of California, San Diego. I just like going on Cell Biology pages and looking into current research to update the information. I have access to scientific journals and enjoy reading them/discussing them. I intend to add some sort of "current research" updates to pages, but I have real life adult responsibilities like groceries, bills, class, and research. I am a student, but I prefer being a science educator considering my relative in-depth knowledge of biochemistry and cell biology. Other fields of study include: business, education, finance, investing, and Japanese.

Currently have a draft on:
COPI

Hope to add to:
COPII : more specifically add more detail but also simplify the mechanism of vesicle formation, but there are a lot of reviews I need to catch up to regarding the recent role of new GTPases and other g proteins in the budding mechanism and how the relation of errors results in human diseases.

KDEL : more specifically add more detail about HDEL, since HDEL technically came first, but KDEL is the human homologue/mammalian, so more attention is paid to it. Although plants also use KDEL, but plants may also use HDEL and other less efficient ER signal sequences.

Haven't looked deeply into, but would like to work on/make a page on:

 * ER Signal Sequences (Specifically to go into an overview of KDEL and KKXX and to add to their roles in protein trafficking).

Eventually I'd like to shift my focus towards plant immunity, communication, and adaptations to the agricultural industry/prospective agriculture research such as the possible integration of plant microbiota to increase salt tolerance in plants. Thats after I get these signalling pages updated though.
