Biomolecule Structure and Functions
Our interest is the structure and function of various biomolecules, including nucleic acids, proteins, and their combinations. We run in vitro experiments using purified molecules and their complexes, with special emphasis on projects that integrate genetic, biophysical, and structural approaches to study complexation, molecular recognition, and the interactome. These include microscopy, biolayer interferometry, NMR, crystallography, optogenetics, and genomic methods.
