Chemical energy conversion in biology studied using advanced spectroscopic and structural tools

University of Leicester Department of Chemistry

Redox properties of metal-containing active sites are critically important to many biocatalytic processes. one third of all proteins contain a redox-active metal, and ca 22% of submissions to the Protein Data Bank contain a transition metal. Read more

Structural-guided PROTAC targeting of BMX to modulate apoptotic sensitivity in disease

University of Leicester Molecular and Cell Biology

What determines at the molecular level whether a cell lives or dies? Regulation of the cellular life–death switch is essential in healthy cells for normal foetal development and for the clearance of damaged cells. Read more

How do RNA-binding proteins control splice site selection? A multi-disciplinary approach

University of Leicester Molecular and Cell Biology

Almost every protein-coding gene in vertebrates can and does express multiple proteins. This is achieved primarily by RNA splicing, which is an essential step in gene expression in mammals and generates incredible diversity. Read more

Understanding gene regulation by HDAC1 complexes in development and cancer

University of Leicester Molecular and Cell Biology

Packaging DNA into nucleosomes helps protect the long fragile genomes of eukaryotic species. However, in doing so it becomes an ever-present physical barrier to the machinery required for its replication, repair and transcription. Read more
