Elucidating the mechanisms of outer membrane biogenesis in Gram-negative bacteria
The emergence of bacteria that are resistant to available antibiotics represents an enormous and growing global threat requiring new targets and strategies to combat infection. Read more
Biopolymers for packaging and membrane applications
Membrane-based separation of gaseous mixtures is recognised as a low-energy and low-carbon alternative to traditional separation techniques. Read more
Membrane transporters for biotechnological and biotherapeutic applications
This project aims to investigate the mechanism of membrane transport. Membrane transporters are essential biomolecules controlling what goes in and what comes out of the membrane. Read more
Cell membrane engineering for biotechnology
The global economy has an unsustainable dependence on fossil raw material and concerns about environmental sustainability are becoming more acute. … Read more
Investigating the structure of tetraspanin membrane proteins
Tetraspanin membrane proteins are emerging as potential therapeutic targets for major human disorders such as cancer, infection and inflammatory diseases. Read more
Textile wastewater removal using nanoparticle embedded graphene oxide membrane
Graphene has remarkable hydrophobic properties which are ideal for wastewater treatment. Naturally, Graphene repels water, but allows permeation when there are narrow pores within it. Read more
Membrane protein efflux pump dynamics in biofilm formation and multidrug resistance
Membrane protein efflux pumps can expel a broad range of toxic substances out of bacteria which significantly contributes to multidrug resistance against functionally diverse antimicrobial drugs and biofilm formation. Read more
(EPSRC DTP) Probing structural ensembles of mechanosensitive channel proteins in membranes by PELDOR/DEER spectroscopy, HDX-mass spectrometry and Molecular Dynamics simulations
Mechanosensitive ion channels form pores in the membranes converting mechanical cues into electrical signals. Read more
A novel membrane-free flow battery for renewable energy storage: Prototype Design by Simulation
PROJECT REFERENCE NUMBER. Please select SCEBE-22SF-NMFFB-Chen from the drop-down list or add this to your proposal writeup. BACKGROUND. Read more
Membrane shaping in cilia formation and function
Supervisors: Dr Mark van Breugel. Funding: SBBS Start-up Studentship. Deadline: 15th June 2023. The following fully-funded PhD studentship is available in the School of Biological and Behavioural Sciences with an expected start date of Sept 2023. Read more
Understanding the factors limiting proton exchange membrane (PEM) electrolysers using in-situ transmission electron microscopy (TEM)
Background. Proton exchange membrane (PEM) electrolysis is a key route to production of green hydrogen from renewable electricity. Read more
Proteomics to determine how defects in membrane trafficking within the secretory pathway cause human disease
Work in the Lowe laboratory is aimed at deciphering the molecular mechanisms that control membrane trafficking within cells. A major focus of our work is the trafficking of proteins to and through the Golgi apparatus, which lies at the heart of the secretory pathway. Read more
Pathophysiology of red cell membrane permeability
Our project investigates how red cell membrane permeability is altered in pathophysiological states. Read more
Probing structural ensembles of mechanosensitive channels by EPR spectroscopy, HDX-mass spectrometry, Molecular Dynamics and CryoEM
Mechanosensitive ion channels form pores in the membranes converting mechanical cues into electrical signals. Read more
