Phinikoula S. Katsamba
Postdoctoral Scientist
Dr. Katsamba received a Ph.D. in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology from the University of
Southern California in 2002. Her graduate work involved characterization of a two-step model
for binding of the U1A protein to the U1 hairpin II RNA.
Dr. Katsamba joined the group in October 2002. She is currently working on examining the binding
interactions of small molecules to G Protein-Coupled Receptors (GPCRs) in an effort to
understand signal transduction within this receptor family.
