Structural dynamics
Our research aims to unravel the dynamics and interactions of proteins and protein complexes. To this end, we work from a foundation of advanced computations that are matched with experiments, where mass-spectrometric techniques such as ion-mobility spectrometry currently are of particular interest. The latter also motivates us to investigate the fundamentals of gas-phase proteins and how to keep them native-like in the absence of solvent. Our research span from the technically oriented, where we explore new means to interrogate macromolecules, to application to specific biological systems.
