Membrane protein structure & function
Membrane Protein Structure and Function
The area includes projects focused on the study of respiratory chain NADH:quinone oxidoreductase (Complex I), aquaporin membrane water channels and a technology platform for monitoring trans-membrane proton flux. This platform allows us to monitor proton translocation across a lipid bilayer quantitatively at ms time resolution and high sensitivity. The platform may be used for functional investigations of important membrane proteins, as well as investigating lipid bilayers of different composition.
Principal investigator's working on these projects: Per Kjellbom; Urban Johanson; Susanna Törnroth Horesfield
