During her undergraduate degree, Gintare focussed on the synthesis and characteristics of biological active nicotine acid derivatives. Her Master’s research project was about post transitional addition of PTS1 to proteins and concentrated on modified peptide probes interactions with mutant receptor PEX5 in order to investigate protein importation into the peroxisomes.
