Research interests:
protein folding, aggregation, complexes; proteomics; mass spectrometry of non-covalent interactions.
Group interests involve proteomic and structural protein studies with special focus on molecular
complexes involved in the functioning of the neural system. We are using diverse biophysical methods
to characterise these complexes. We develop new approaches to use mass spectrometry of non-covalent
complexes to gain insight into weakly associating molecular entities - peptides and proteins. We are
also involved in several proteomics projects, being responsible for identification of proteins of
interest and characterisation of their post translational modifications. This activity is illustrated
on IBB PAS, Mass Spectrometry and Proteomics Lab page:
