CEITEC MU - Protein Structure and Dynamics

Research areas are:

  • Structure, dynamics and interactions of proteins
  • Intrinsically disordered proteins
  • Development and application of NMR methodology

​The main objective is the development of new methodologies for the investigation of biomolecular structures, interactions, and dynamics.
We are focusing on investigations of the biomolecular structures and interactions and their relationship with physiological functions, diseases and therapies.
The next objective is the production of pure and homogeneous proteins for the structural analysis and production of monoclonal antibodies, with emphasis on the quality of the antigen-antibody selection.  The result is a selection of binding molecules from synthetic DNA libraries for diagnostic and therapeutic use.

Oregon State University - Mehl Research Group

In the early years the Mehl lab focused on optimizing the tools of Genetic Code Expansion for robustly expressing proteins with site-specifically incorporated non-canonical amino acids that have many applications as spectroscopic probes, protein crosslinkers, post-translational modifications and bioorthogonal ligations. This powerful technology has been developed by many labs in the world for incorporation of hundreds of amino acids into many different organisms and can be overwhelming to non-experts. To provide greater access to this technology and foster its diverse use we have started the worlds first Unnatural Protein Facility at Oregon State University.

In the later years the Mehl lab has combined the advances of Genetic Code Expansion with materials and oxidative stress. The ability to site-specifically alter any protein with polymers, chemically reactive groups and oxidative damage provides our lab unique control over construction of protein in or on materials and study of oxidative stress diseases.

National University of Cuyo - Cellular Signal Integration Laboratory

Our scientific interest is focused on the study of signaling pathways by post-translational modifications (phosphorylations, acetylations and others) in proteins using molecular, cellular and computational biology methods. Our study material is human and mouse cells, normal and pathological, the process of differentiation of adult mesenchymal stem cells and cell reprogramming.
Several of our lines of research focus on the master regulator of one of the most abundant post-translational modifications in the cell, phosphorylation. Said regulator is constituted by the family of proteins 14-3-3, which bind phosphorylated proteins in specific serines and threonines, located mainly in disordered regions. The 14-3-3 proteins in turn are regulated by other post-translational modifications, such as acetylation, which constitutes a regulation of regulators and establishes a cross-talk between different protein modifications. This makes the "language" used by the cell in signaling networks more complex and specific.
