Illustration of mechanical parts with orange, green, and yellow elements, connected on a grey background.

ATP synthases

We have made significant progress towards fully elucidating this strictly con­served process, which is one of the most fundamental and ancient in biology.

Detailed view of a molecular structure with vibrant colors on a textured blue surface.

Respiratory chain complexes

Project Group of Structural Biology Department

Detailed cross-section showing interwoven turquoise and gray formations within a curved shape.

CryoET of mitochondria

CryoET makes it possible to not only examine mitochondrial membranes in molecular detail, but also whole mitochondria to study overall cristae organization and cristae junctions.

Three gold, cone-like 3D shapes on a blue gradient, each with a rough surface texture.

Archaeal membrane protein complexes

Archaea contain many unique protein assemblies and offer fascinating insights into an exotic, largely unknown macromolecular universe that we are exploring by cryoEM and cryoET.

Visualization of protein structure with helices and surface details in various colors.

Membrane transporters, channels and enzymes
