About
Dr. Ashwini Maratha is a leading researcher in the field of inborn errors of metabolism, with a particular focus on classical galactosaemia and glycobiology. Her work has fundamentally advanced our understanding of how this rare genetic disorder disrupts protein glycosylation, specifically through the study of immunoglobulin G (IgG) N-glycosylation patterns. Dr. Maratha’s most cited paper, "Classical galactosaemia: novel insights in IgG N-glycosylation and N-glycan biosynthesis" (2016, 46 citations), provided groundbreaking evidence that galactosaemia patients exhibit persistent abnormalities in N-glycan biosynthesis, challenging previous assumptions about the disorder’s pathophysiology. She further developed a novel monitoring approach in her 2015 study, demonstrating that IgG N-glycosylation galactose incorporation ratios can serve as a sensitive biomarker for disease management. These contributions have not only deepened the molecular understanding of galactosaemia but also opened new avenues for therapeutic monitoring. Her work is highly influential among metabolic disease specialists and glycobiologists, with her research cited in over 50 publications, establishing her as a key voice in the intersection of clinical metabolics and glycomics.
