Kellye A. Cupp-Sutton is bioanalytical chemist specializing in mass spectrometry-based proteomics. She earned a Bachelor of Science in Chemistry at The University of Central Oklahoma in 2013 and subsequently earned a Ph.D. in Chemistry at The University of Oklahoma, Norman with Dr. Michael T. Ashby in 2018. Her graduate research focused on examination of the kinetics and mechanism of lactoperoxidase mediated oxidation of thiocyanate using stopped-flow UV-Vis spectroscopy which challenged a long standing mechanism. Upon graduation, she began postdoctoral research with Dr. Si Wu at The University of Oklahoma. Her research has focused on the development of quantitative mass spectrometry-based top-down proteomics methods for high-throughput functional proteomics. Primarily, she has developed a top-down thermal proteome profiling platform to study the effect of protein modification on protein thermal stability. In addition to her research, she has helped mentor twelve graduate and seven undergraduate students in diverse areas of research including single-cell proteomics, high throughput hydrogen-deuterium exchange mass spectrometry, and intact protein isobaric chemical tag labeling for complex samples resulting in authorship or co-authorship of thirteen research articles, reviews/perspective, and a book chapter in addition to presentations at national and international conferences.
