研究方向
微生物比較基因組學
（1）以科學問題為導向的生物信息學套用研究－細菌可移動遺傳元件的比較分析
細菌的染色體骨架通常相對保守，但有些菌株通過擁有某些特殊的可移動遺傳元件，如原噬菌體、整合型接合元件和基因組島等，維持或增強了它們在選擇壓力下的競爭優勢和遺傳穩定性。圍繞可移動元件功能研究中遇到的關鍵科學問題，我們開發了一系列生物信息學工具和資料庫：（i）元件識別：我們在MobilomeFINDER中提出了搜尋臨床和環境菌株特有基因組島的新策略，即“tRNAcc工具識別島插入熱點，tRIP-PCR技術搜尋島，酵母捕捉質粒克隆新島”；而我們創建的mGenomeSubtractor則實現了在2～3分鐘內高速識別幾十個細菌染色體序列中的保守骨架或特異片段，利用並行計算解決了在比對數目、大小和運算時間上的難點。（ii）元件轉移：ICEberg資料庫通過生物信息學預測和文獻挖掘，系統地識別了上百個細菌中400多個整合型接合元件，比較分析了島的位點特異整合、切出環化和接合等典型的自行轉移特性，聚焦了它們所編碼的DNA硫修飾限制系統、致病性、抗菌素抗性和重金屬降解等重要生物學性狀。（iii）元件與宿主的互作：宿主菌可能會藉助與程式性死亡相關的毒素-抗毒素系統來調控新獲得可移動元件。TADB資料庫比較分析了1萬多個廣泛存在於細菌可移動元件上的II型毒素-抗毒素操縱子，系統分類為14個家族。
（2）可移動遺傳元件的功能解析－革蘭氏陰性條件致病菌致病和耐藥傳播機制的研究
條件致病菌肺炎克雷伯菌是醫源性感染最主要的革蘭氏陰性菌之一，可引起肺炎、尿路感染、敗血症等多種疾病。在廣譜抗生素濫用造成的強大選擇壓力下，肺炎克雷伯菌通過獲得質粒或基因組島介導的抗菌素抗性基因，成為多重耐藥菌或極度耐藥菌。多年來我們廣泛收集不同來源的肺炎克雷伯菌，包括各種環境株臨床多重耐藥株和。通過MobilomeFINDER策略考察了這些不同生境肺炎克雷伯菌的基因組多樣性。此外，我們還關注銅綠假單胞菌和鮑曼不動桿菌等重要耐藥條件致病菌致病。
（3）“乾-濕”科學緊密的結合－細菌基因組島編碼的DNA硫修飾及其限制系統
我們與多個研究組展開優勢互補的合作，圍繞微生物代謝過程中關鍵科問題開展開了一系列比較分析研究。合作研究發現了DNA硫修飾系統通過水平轉移以基因組島的形式，廣泛存在於分類地位和生態差異很大的細菌和古細菌中；對預測的天藍色鏈黴菌基因組島深入分析，首次發現了DNA硫修飾依賴的限制系統，其中一個島編碼了能切割磷硫醯化DNA的IV型核酸內切酶。這些合作結晶有助於闡明DNA硫修飾的生物學意義。
