Structural Biology PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships in Manchester

We have 13 Structural Biology PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships in Manchester

Identification and structural analysis of transient interactions in supra-molecular complexes involved in protein synthesis

The aim of this project is to understand the dynamic interactions in the mechanism and control of protein synthesis in eukaryotic cells at the molecular level using hydrogen-deuterium exchange mass spectrometry (HDX-MS), and particularly the role of the eukaryotic translation initiation factors eIF2, eIF5 and eIF2B[1,2].

Understanding KANK1 contribution to neuronal health and disease.

Motor Neurone Disease (MND) is a catastrophic disease with a 100% fatality rate but is mechanistically poorly understood. Recently, αβ-integrin heterodimers have been implicated in neurodegeneration. Read more

Viral-surface interactions studied by vibrational sum-frequency spectroscopy

The recent COVID-19 pandemic, and in particular fomite transmission of the virus, led to a lot of interest in how viral particles attached to surfaces, their survival times on different materials and how they transferred to hosts. Read more

Defining the role of glycation in extracellular matrix damage in ageing and diabetic skin

In skin, long-lived extracellular matrix (ECM) components in the dermis undergo a form of ageing where damage is accumulated to their protein structures by mechanisms such as glycation, photo-oxidation and protease cleavage, leading to profound changes in tissue architecture and function.

Developing novel light-induced in-situ Electron Paramagnetic Resonance (EPR) methods

Light-induced in-situ Electron Paramagnetic Resonance (EPR) studies are a growing field in both continuous wave and pulsed EPR. It can be used to monitor photoactivated chemical and biochemical reactions involving radical reagents, projects or intermediates. Read more
