Minxin Guan
Associate Editors, Mitochondrial Communications
Zhejiang University, Hangzhou, China
Research interests: Human mitochondrial genetics and biomedicine.
Guan’s pioneering work with mitochondrial diseases included the discoveries of the mitochondrial cause of maternally inherited non-syndromic and aminoglycoside induced hearing loss. Currently, Dr. Guan's lab is focusing on investigating the mechanisms underlying the aberrant mitochondrial tRNA metabolisms including the synthesis, processing, maturation, CCA addition, posttranscriptional nucleotide modification and aminoacylation of tRNA, and their impact on human diseases including deafness, optic neuropathy and hypertension.
