研究领域：生物信息学，计算生物学。
研究内容：我们主要围绕以下几方面展开生物信息学研究：
(1) 细胞编程和重编程相关多组学大数据的生物信息学研究：通过将公共数据平台的多组学数据与本实验室内部产生的数据进行整合分析，利用大数据生物信息学方法系统分析哺乳动物早期胚胎发育和体细胞多种重编程的分子差异，先后揭示了异种克隆动物胚胎发育受阻的关键转录因子调控网络(BMC Genomics. 2014, 15:1113;BriefingsinBioinformatics. 2017 18(4):712-721)，构建了哺乳动物早期胚胎发育基因时序性表达数据分析平台EmExplorer(Open Biol. 2019, 7:7794-7802)，完成先锋转录因子Oct4靶向调控细胞重编程的理论生物学描述(Comput Struct Biotechnol J, 2019, 17, 1226-1233)，发展了草原家畜胚胎物种特异性差异基因识别的方法(IEEE Access, 2019, 7: 7794-7802, ESI 1%高被引)，建立了相关人工智能预测平台(软件著作权2019SR**)，筛选并探究一系列引起细胞编程和重编程阻滞的分子调控通路(Mol Ther Nucleic Acids. 2020 19:1053-1064)，基于蛋白质家族序列保守性和选择进化压力，解析了DNA去甲基化关键蛋白TET家族功能发挥的序列基础(Briefings in Bioinformatics. 2019, 20 (5), 1826-1835, ESI 1%高被引)。
(2) 蛋白/DNA功能发挥的序列和结构基础的计算生物学研究：自2009年起，较早地发展了基于DNA空间几何描述参数作为特征建立基因组启动子预测模型的方法(Prog Biochem Biophys 2009 36(7): 863-871; Physica A 2010 389(19) 4217–4223; Genomics 2011 97(3): 112-120)，首次将离散增量算法与K紧邻算法有机结合，先后提出了K近邻平均离散增量算法K-MID(Amino Acids 2010, 38:859–867)和K近邻最小离散增量算法KNN-ID(Amino Acids. 2013, 44(2):573-80;Mol Biosyst. 2015 11(3):950-7)，发展了基于蛋白质序列氨基酸约化(Reduced Amino Acids)用于蛋白质的功能分类的方法(Peptides. 2009, 30(10)1788–1793; Plos one, 2015 10(12):e**)，成功搭建了大数据蛋白质序列氨基酸约化与特征提取数据分析平台(Bioinformatics. 2017, 33(1):122-124;ESI 1%高被引, Database, 2019, baz131,软件著作权2019SR**)。
(3) 具有育种价值分子标记人工智能预测筛选的相关功能基因组学方面：开发了一套基于生物信息学方法的外源基因密码子优化和组织特异性表达调控元件改造方法，优化的人源化亚麻脂肪酸脱氢酶基因FAD3已经成功用于动物基因修饰育种(国家发明专利号：ZL3.5)。通过筛选出具有组织特异的启动子和增强子序列转录因子结合位点调控Motif，该算法已成功构建了MRF4人工设计肌肉特异性表达启动子调控元件(国家发明专利号：ZL6.1)，已在具有经济价值的动物基因编辑育种上进行了试验，效果明显。
