Yu-Fu Lin

Yu-Fu Lin studies how metal ions like zinc interact with small proteins and peptides, using computer simulations and mass spectrometry (a technique that measures the mass of molecules and their fragments) to understand molecular structure and behavior. This work sits at the intersection of chemistry and biology, focusing on how amino acids such as histidine and cysteine bind metals and affect molecular shape and charge. The research is relevant to understanding zinc-binding proteins at a fundamental, molecular level.

Publication output was minimal before 2019, dipped in 2020, then grew with some fluctuation, peaking at 6 publications in 2024, suggesting an overall increasing trend in recent years.
