... Current applications of quantitative proteomics technology at the Institute for Systems Biology are directed towards the discovery of proteins markers that differentiate cancer cells from their normal counterparts, to the investigation of the mechanisms of fundamental cellular processes by the comparative analysis of the gene and protein expression profiles in cells at different states, and to studies in the area of medical microbiology.

... He oversees the human genome project, a complex multidisciplinary scientific enterprise directed at mapping and sequencing the entire human DNA, and determining aspects of its function. A working draft of the human genome sequence was announced in June of 2000, an initial analysis was published in February of 2001, and the completed sequence is anticipated in the spring of 2003.

... He also pursued research interests at the Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston in the areas of breast cancer, mammalian cell cycle regulation and cell cycle checkpoint genes. He is currently an Attending Physician at the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute and holds an academic appointment through the Department of Biological Chemistry and Molecular Pharmacology at Harvard Medical School.

... JOHN WALKER has been engaged in structural studies of the ATP syntheses from bovine heart mitochondria and eubacteria for more than 20 years. These studies resulted in a complete sequence analysis of the complex from several species and in the atomic resolution structure of the Fat catalytic domain of the enzyme from bovine mitochondria.
