Research Interests
To date, Doyle's molecular and applied proteomics work has resulted in 130 peer-reviewed publications to date, over 7700 citations (h-index: 48), patented fungal diagnostic technology (EP2709659, awarded 2018) and commercialised products. It is directed towards understanding microbial pathogenicity, antimicrobial resistance and identifying new biotechnological, therapeutic and diagnostic targets. See https://scholar.google.com/citations?user=DJhTVdEAAAAJ&hl=en
He was also instrumental as Lead Applicant in securing competitive SFI funding for Departmental quantitative mass spectrometry (MS) facilities (€566,540) which has enabled multiple new project awards and research directions for many Principal Investigators within Biology at MU, MSc/PhD student projects - and is also available to internal & external users. All MS-related publications (129), equating to 1 per month since commissioning, to September 2023: https://www.maynoothuniversity.ie/system/temporary/filefield_paths/QP%20Publications%20Maynooth%202013-23_0.pdf
Doyle also secured competitive funding (€89,000) for Lightcycler 480 instrumentation which was offered, and loaned free-of-charge, to the National Virus Reference Laboratory (ultimately Enfer Scientific) from March - July 2020 to underpin essential and large-scale National molecular testing of patients for SARS-CoV-2, the causative agent of COVID-19.
The impact of this, and equivalent contributions by other Irish Universities, on the establishment of control over what was an
exponentially evolving pandemic, cannot be underestimated.
Doyle has also successfully supervised 31 PhD and 11 MSc graduate student projects to completion. His group also has a number of academic and industrial collaborations and group members have been pro-active in the promotion of the public understanding of science through participation in such activities as the Maynooth University Chain Reaction Lecture Series and the National Science Week. Research work in the laboratory is funded by Science Foundation Ireland, Leeds-Beckett University and MU. Professor Doyle holds the distinction of Visiting Professor at Leeds Beckett University, UK.
Research area 1.
Infectious diseases and antimicrobial resistance (AMR): identified as a major global challenge by UN Strategic Development Goals. His group discovered that the fungal non-ribosomal peptide, gliotoxin, inhibits bacterial growth in a metal-dependent manner. Indeed, it now appears that at least a component of bacterial growth inhibition by gliotoxin is due to its zinc chelating properties. Doyle’s research is now focused on this area to address antimicrobial resistance and identify new antimicrobial drug targets in Gram-negative spp. Secondly, he retains a major research interest in the WHO priority fungal pathogen Aspergillus fumigatus. Here, he studies the biology, diagnosis and molecular genetics of the human pathogenic fungus, Aspergillus fumigatus - a major cause of infection in immunocompromised individuals. He has a special interest in fungal siderophore biosynthesis and siderophore potential as both Trojan horse species and as fungal drug targets. Using protein mass spectrometry, his group has identified several potential virulence factors (proteins) in the organism, which may contribute both to its pathogenicity and emerging resistance to conventional chemotherapies. He was the first to identify and characterise a novel self-protection mechanism against gliotoxin in Aspergillus fumigatus and the presence of the potent antioxidant, ergothioneine. His group also identified and characterised several non-ribosomal peptide synthetases in A. fumigatus. Interestingly, fungal non-ribosomal peptide synthetases represent a novel source of bioactive metabolites, related to the AMR issue, and his published work is at the cutting-edge of this internationally competitive area. The primary research methods involved in this work comprise gene deletion studies, proteomics, NMR and LC-MS. Collaborators: Professor Gary Jones (Leeds-Beckett University, UK), Professor David Fitzpatrick, Professor Ozgur Bayram, Professor Ronan McCarthy (Brunel, UK), Dr Rebecca Owens, Professor Hubertus Haas (Innsbruck, Austria), Professor Gustavo Goldman (Sao Paulo, Brazil) and Dr Siobhan McClean (UCD).
Research area 2.
Immunodiagnostics: Using a well-established recombinant protein expression systems (E. coli and baculovirus) Doyle's group has expressed and continues to express A. fumigatus proteins to assess their diagnostic potential. In addition, he has developed novel immunoassays to detect fungal metabolites as disease indicators. In June 2020, he was awarded funding to develop COVID-19 ELISA and lateral flow-based immunodiagnostics. This work is in collaboration with Professor John P. Dalton, University of Galway. Proteomic studies of many organisms, using Departmental protein MS facilities, are underway and peer-reviewed publications are emerging from these efforts. We are also engaged with improving the diagnosis of neonatal sepsis, by rapid serum amyloid A detection, in Low-Middle Income Countries via SFI/Irish Aid-funded research.

Research area 3.
Fungal biocatalysts, Armillaria mellea: In the past, this plant pathogenic fungus has proven recalcitrant to detailed molecular analysis. However, Doyle with Professor David Fitzpatrick has undertaken genome sequencing of this organism and has established a robust proteomics pipeline to identify novel biocatalysts (enzymes) with biotechnological, pharmaceutical and biofuel applications. This work involves conventional individual protein mass spectrometry and shotgun proteomics. The primary research methods involved in this work comprise genome sequencing, bioinformatics, proteomics, HPLC and small molecule LC-MS. Collaborators: Professor David Fitzpatrick and Dr Rebecca Owens (Maynooth University).
Research equipment infrastructure available for Industry-Academia Collaborations: The Department of Biology possesses a range of modern molecular and proteomic instrumentation which is used for both PhD and Post-Doctoral Research projects. This equipment, much of which has been funded by competitive awards from the HEA, HRB, SFI and Enterprise Ireland, is also available for use by companies on a commercial basis.

3. Proteogenomic-mediated discovery of novel biological systems: Since 2004, Doyle has pioneered an integrated proteogenomic approach to new systems discovery in fungi, which has led to the first identification of: (i) oxidoreductase mediated self-resistance mechanisms against redox-active peptides, (ii) negative regulatory system for redox-active metabolite production, (iii) new biosynthetic functionality of detoxification enzymes, (iv) integration of primary and secondary metabolism via methylation systems, (v) a novel metal biochelator, (vi) detailed proteogenomic investigation of plant pathogen Armillaria mellea and (vii) discovery of supra-antioxidant, ergothioneine, presence and biosynthesis in Aspergillus fumigatus. These proteogenomic strategies have involved fungal growth under specific conditions, comparative quantitative proteomics to identify altered proteins/pathways/systems, and subsequent gene deletion of cognate genes to elucidate discrete
protein functionality.

BSc (Biotechnology) Degree Coordinator (1997-2023):
Coordinated until 2023 by Professor Sean Doyle, the BSc (Biotechnology) degree (CAO code: MH202) at Maynooth University was introduced in 1996 by Head of Department, Professor Peter Whittaker, and the first students graduated in 2000. Since then, over 470 students have graduated with a BSc (Biotechnology) from Maynooth University. Numerous teaching methodologies are utilized for the programme combining didactic, self-directed and active learning, and include lectures and practical classes, allied to experiential learning in terms of Industry-based educational outplacement (3 months in final year), and acquisition of presentation skills and site visits to biotechnology companies. The degree is of four-year duration, requires simultaneous study of Chemistry for 3 of the 4 years, and is one of the most popular and highest points courses in the Faculty of Science and
Engineering. The course has been modularised and semesterised since 2003.
Annually, it is actively promoted by course co-ordinator Professor Doyle, in
association with colleagues in the University Admissions Office. In academic
year 2018-19, there are 95 students taking Biotechnology at Maynooth University
(years 1-4). Students take 4 subjects in 1st year, three in 2nd
year, two in 3rd year and only Biotechnology in 4th year.
Indeed, in 4th year, all lecture modules are completed in Semester 1 and
students go on work placement during Semester 2- with modules being examined at the end of both Semester 1 and 2, respectively. It was the first Maynooth
University degree programme to offer an industrial placement, which served as a
predicate for many of the industrial placement modules now found in other
Maynooth University degrees (2018). Professor Doyle managed the industrial
outplacement programme until 2015, and the BSc (Biotechnology) was used as a
basis to establish the BSc (Biomedical and Pharmaceutical Chemistry) degree at
Maynooth University, indeed both courses still share high percentage identity
for years 1 to 3. Dr David Fitzpatrick and Dr Paul Dowling now lead the
industrial placement of 4th year Biotechnology students, with
support from Professor Doyle. The course has evolved since its inception and
now places a strong emphasis on both molecular biotechnology and chemical
biology, in particular the identification, study and use of biomolecules as
diagnostic and therapeutic agents. Students taking the BSc (Biotechnology)
programme experience both subject-unique modules and shared modules with other Departmental undergraduates, and have found employment in the
biopharmaceutical, pharmaceutical, diagnostic and food industries. Many BSc
(Biotechnology) graduates have undertaken PhD degrees at Maynooth University
and elsewhere, and are now in both academic and industrial leadership
positions.
