Protein Folding & Dynamics

	Mario Amzel Professor Structure and mechanism of proteins involved in redox or phosphoryl transfer reactions, such as FPPS, MICAL, and Pl3K-alpha.  Many of these proteins studied are targets for drug design.		Doug Barrick Professor Stability and folding of modular proteins, structure and sequence analysis of protein evolution, protein-protein interactions in signaling pathways
	Ludwig Brand Professor Protein-ligand interactions, fluorescence spectroscopy of macromolecular complexes		Karen Fleming Associate Professor Membrane protein folding, thermodynamics of protein-protein interactions in membranes, membrane protein modeling
	Dominique Frueh Assistant Professor NMR studies of modulations of protein dynamics and conformations in active enzymatic systems		Bertrand García-Moreno Professor Experimental and computational studies of protein electrostatics, structure-based energy calculations, ligand-driven conformational transition, bioenergetics
	Vincent J. Hilser Professor Conformational fluctuations in function, disease and evolution		Juliette Lecomte Professor Structure and dynamics of protein in solution by NMR spectroscopy
	Peter Privalov Professor Thermodynamics of protein folding		Scheherazade Sadegh-Nasseri Associate Professor Mechanisms of T cell activation and unresponsiveness, mechanisms of antigen processing and presentation
	David Shortle Professor Protein folding and stability, NMR analysis of denatured protein, preduction of protein structure from sequence
