What we do

Integrated Structural Biology

Our main expertise is in protein crystallography, which is a high-precision technique to elucidate the 3D-structure of proteins and other macromolecules. Depending on the project, we also apply NMR spectroscopy, cryo–electron microscopy or small-angle scattering techniques. Our main interest is in medically relevant systems, such as anti-cancer antibodies and bacterial toxins, in particular those involving protein-carbohydrate interactions or enzymes.

In several projects we are involved in developing drugs (structure-based drug design). 

Cooperation

Our research groups are associated to PX-Oslo and GlycoNor, and have a large network of international collaborations.
