Former Research Group "Biomolecular NMR Spectroscopy"

Welcome to the previous web site of the former research group Biomolecular NMR Spectroscopy.

Maintenance of this website is ceased as successful operation of this group closed at end of 2015.

Former Research Interests

The structure-function relationship for biomolecules relevant to ageing processes and age-related disease were recent focus of the Biomolecular NMR Group in order to understand damaging and repair mechanisms in mechanistic molecular terms. This research included the cytotoxic oligomeric beta amyloid peptide involved in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's Disease, the DNA repair/replication helicases RecQL4 and MCM, the DNA repair protein Aprataxin and heme-binding proteins. This work also included methods development for solid-state and liquid-state NMR spectroscopy as well as for CD spectroscopy.

The results of the former Research Interests are itemized in several publications. Software generated by the former group is still provided by this website.
