研究方向:

  蛋白质的结构与功能密切相关,其错误折叠和聚集往往引起功能的异常,分子伴侣能辅助蛋白质折叠、抑制错误折叠和聚集,是细胞内蛋白质质量控制体系的重要组成部分。本实验室采用多种研究技术手段,特别是单分子荧光技术,开展蛋白质折叠、修饰与质量控制的研究,当前主要研究方向包括:

  1. 单分子荧光技术研究淀粉样蛋白折叠和组装机制

  单分子技术可揭示生物大分子状态分布及动态变化信息,捕捉混合体系内低含量组分。我们采用单分子荧光技术深入研究淀粉样蛋白从可溶态转化为不可溶纤维态的分子机制,并试图揭示致病性与功能性淀粉样纤维的毒性差异原因。

  2. 分子伴侣的构象动态和翻译后修饰与功能的关系

  我们采用生化和细胞生物学方法、单分子技术、结构生物学技术等多种手段,深入研究Hsp70及Hsp40等分子伴侣调控蛋白质折叠和错误折叠的机制,以及翻译后修饰对分子伴侣结构和功能的影响,试图阐明分子伴侣在蛋白质质量控制体系中发挥功能的分子机制。

  3. 基于淀粉样纤维的功能性生物纳米材料开发

  淀粉样纤维具有高强度和稳定性,以及组装和功能可调控等特点,是一类具有潜在应用价值的生物纳米材料。我们研究淀粉样纤维的力学性能与其组装机制的关系,并利用淀粉样纤维的独特性来设计新型的纳米材料。
