We study the transport mechanisms of membrane proteins, such as multidrug resistance pumps and ion channels, using NMR spectroscopy and other techniques.

Check out our latest paper!
Full opening of helix bundle crossing does not lead to NaK channel activation, say Vilius Kurauskas, Marco Tonelli, and Katherine Henzler-Wildman @KHW_Lab @UWBiochem: bit.ly/3UlvgJl #MembraneTransport #Biophysics #Biochemistry #IonChannels

In collaboration with Chanda lab, we recently developed robust protocol for purification and structural characterization of Shaker VSD. We identified interesting structural features and that it is super dynamic with NMR!! Check out the paper: doi.org/10.1016/j.bpj.2019.0…

We identified a mutant of EmrE shown to impair transport and alternating access, which can lead to cleaner NMR spectra and some interesting scientific questions! Check out the paper here: doi.org/10.1016/j.jmb.2019.0… #memebraneproteins #dynamics #bacterialtransporters
