Barbara Imperiali is one of the most popular and richest Researcher who was born on January 1, 1957 in England, United Kingdom. Barbara Imperiali (b. January 1, 1957) is a Professor of Biology and Chemistry at Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Affiliate Member of the Broad Institute. She is an elected member of the National Academy of Sciences and a Fellow of the Royal Society of Chemistry.
In 1999, she returned to MIT as the Ellen Swallow Richards Professor of Biology. Her research program is focused on protein glycosylation, a process by which a carbohydrate is added to a protein to change its structure or function. Her lab has developed techniques to track and understand how glycosylation at the time of protein production—a process known as translation—affects protein folding and conformation. Applying techniques such as Fluorescence Resonance Energy Transfer and nuclear magnetic resonance, she has elucidated how glycosylation might protect proteins against misfolding and how it affects folding mechanics and thermodynamic stability.

She received her Bachelor of Science in Medicinal Chemistry from the University College London in 1979. She attended Massachusetts Institute of Technology, where she received her Doctor of Philosophy in synthetic organic chemistry in 1983. She joined the lab of Satoru Masamune, working to develop and apply new techniques to synthesize a class of antibiotic chemicals known as ansamycin. As a postdoc in the Masamune lab she worked with the enzyme beta-ketothiolase.
In 1986, Imperiali became an Assistant Professor at Carnegie Mellon University before moving her laboratory to California Institute of Technology in 1989. While at Caltech, she was influenced by the research of Dennis Dougherty, who was applying unnatural amino acid mutagenesis to understand interactions of ligand-gated membrane channels and receptors. Imperiali’s work became focused on problems at the chemistry–biology interface, using chemistry to better understand the structure and function of proteins in vivo.
