Gruppe Anton Meinhart - mRNA Processing
|
|
RNA is the exclusive messenger that forwards genetic information for protein synthesis to the ribosome. In eucaryotic organisms, genes are transcribed into messenger RNA (mRNA) by RNA polymerase II in the nucleus. The pre mRNA resides in the nucleus and ...

Gruppe Tatiana Domratcheva - Computational Photobiology
|
|
Sunlight is an important environmental factor and light-induced chemical reactions may have both beneficial and detrimental biological effects. Photon absorption produces highly reactive excited molecules which can undergo chemical changes. On the one hand, ...

Gruppe Ilme Schlichting - Heme and Flavin Enzymes
|
|
Since light is an important environmental variable, many organisms have evolved signalling pathways that transmit and thereby translate this stimulus into various biochemical activities. Recently, new classes of blue light photoreceptors have been identified ...

Gruppe Ilme Schlichting - Coherent diffractive imaging
|
|
Structural biology, and in particular scattering based techniques making use of X-rays and electrons, have provided high-resolution insight in the structure and function of molecules and molecular assemblies. Despite a lot of advances in instrumentation, the ...

Gruppe Jochen Reinstein - Molecular Chaperones
|
|
Protein folding is often assisted by molecular chaperones. They not only prevent undesired side reactions but even revert already aggregated proteins into their native form. How the chemical energy of ATP is used by these molecular machines and switches to ...

Gruppe Johann Bollmann
|
|
During development, the nervous system is assembled by an ever increasing number of neurons that gradually acquire their mature structure and function over the course of days, weeks and months. Despite the dynamic nature of early neuronal connections in a ...

Gruppe Rolf Sprengel
|
|
One of the most fascinating problems of modern biology concerns the molecular mechanisms which underlie the acquisition, computation and storage of information in the human brain. It has been a long-standing assumption that both the number of nerve cells and ...

Gruppe Thomas Euler - Signalverarbeitung in der Retina
|
|
Die Retina wird oft mit dem Film in einer Photokamera verglichen - ein durchweg unzutreffender Vergleich, denn anders als ein Film in der Fotokamera verarbeitet die Retina die einfallenden Lichtmuster auf komplexe Weise: sie analysiert, extrahiert und filtert ...

Gruppe Witzemann / Koenen - Molekulare Anatomie neuromuskulärer Synapsen
|
|
Ziel unserer Forschungsarbeit ist die Darstellung der Anatomie der muskulären Endplatte - einmal auf supramolekularer Ebene, zum anderen mit Bezug auf die Genexpression - um vererbte muskuläre Fehlfunktionen (im einzelnen: Channelopathies) verstehen zu können. ...
