Statement of Research Interest

The Lowe Lab studies membrane traffic in the secretory and endocytic pathways. A major interest is the structure and function of the Golgi apparatus. We also study the lipid phosphatase OCRL1, which is mutated in Lowe syndrome and Dent-2 disease, and which plays an important role in endocytic trafficking. We use a combination of mammalian cell culture and zebrafish as experimental systems to carry out this work.
