Proteins under shear flow
Shear flow, as it occurs for example in blood vessel, is an alternative way of subjecting proteins to forces for signalling …
Extremely elastic proteins
The ultimate properties of proteins with respect to their ability to be force-reactive, are coarsely described by their capacity to withstand …
Interaction between intrinsically disordered proteins and structured partners
On the line of maturing new understanding of the factors regulating the correct dynamics of intrinsically disordered proteins in solution, one …
Conformational dynamics of intrinsically disordered proteins
Intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs) lack, by definition, of a well-defined three-dimensional structure and therefore explore a much larger conformational ensemble with …
How graphene sheets respond to force
Bogdan and Frauke have published two back-to-back articles (one together with the former member of the MBM group Dr. Ilona Baldus) …

What Determines the Stability of Proteins?
With mathematical methods and computer simulations, Humboldt Fellow Richard Henchman (University of Manchester) is exploring the factors of protein stability – Research …
Protein origami: Quick folders are the best
The evolutionary history of proteins shows that protein folding is an important factor. Especially the speed of protein folding plays a …
