Main scientific achievements Developed a strategy of enzymatic deglycosylation of target proteins in vivo by co-introducing bacterial PNGase F, which allows for producing functional active valuable recombinant proteins, vaccines, therapeutic proteins, antibodies etc. in eukaryotic system including plants in a non-N-glycosylated form.

Discovered that Chlamydomonas reinhardtii green algae possess glycoproteins with mammalian-like sialylated N-linked oligosaccharides.

Discovered novel Phosphoenolpyruvate Carboxylase genes and their active polypeptides in the green microalga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii, which are essential for high rates of carbon dioxide fixation in plants/algae, i.e., for biomass accumulation and biofuel production.

Developed the efficient procedure for the purification of PGPase in a green alga C. reinhardtii that enabled to get the world’s first purified enzyme in eukaryotes, which allowed determining the sequence of PGPase from many organisms. This finding was the first molecular and enzyme characterization of PGPase in any eukaryotic organisms including human.

Discovered the importance of the annealing time for successful amplification of high GC DNA regions.

Developed a rational platform for gene synthesis using a fast polymerase chain reaction that provided the world's fastest synthetic gene synthesis.

The carbonic anhydrase was purified, characterized and crystallized from Cicer arietinum leaves for the first time and molecular model of its quaternary structure was proposed.
