Judith N Burstyn
A member of the UW-Madison Department of Chemistry for thirty-five years, having joined the faculty in January 1990, my primary job functions have been chemistry research and teaching. My research program is in the field of biological inorganic chemistry. My research interests spanned applications of metal-mediated hydrolysis, exploration of metal centers in gas sensing, and biochemistry and biophysics of heme proteins. Recent themes in my laboratory are how heme functions as a site for regulation of function in diverse protein families, focusing on CO sensing transcription factors, and the direct expression of heme proteins containing the non-native metalloporphyrin cofactor cobalt protoporphyrin IX.
