Welcome to the Kutluay Lab!
We study the fundamental biology of two diverse zoonotic viruses, human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and SARS-CoV-2. A big emphasis in the the lab is identifying the functions of viral and cellular RNA-binding proteins that regulate different stages of virus replication.
