Scientific interests
Sergei Lukyanov’s basic scientific interests lie in the area of analysis of structure and functioning of eukaryotic genomes.
Scientific results
The methods based on the Selective Suppression of Polymerase Chain Reaction — effect discovered by Lukyanov, are widely used in molecular biology labs in Russia and over the world. The technologies using Duplex-Specific Nuclease — enzyme isolated and characterized in collaboration with the laboratory of Marine Biochemistry of the Pacific Institute of Bioorganic Chemistry (headed by Professor V.A. Rasskazov), — have also found broad application. Lukyanov’s research on fluorescent proteins has revolutionized in vivo labeling technologies and brought him wide international recognition.
