Field of activity


The platform has the equipment, infrastructure and expertise necessary for the structural study of cells and biomolecules such as :
NMR & spectrofluorimetry
Molecular modeling and dynamics
Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM)

NMR & spectrofluorimetry :

  • Structure, folding, stability and dynamics of proteins in solution.
  • Ligand/protein, protein/protein, protein/nucleic acid interactions.
  • Physiopathology of the microtubule cytoskeleton, cell cycle and neuron function.

Molecular modeling and dynamics

AFM (atomic force microscopy):

  • Nanometer-scale characterization of biomolecules and complexes.
  • Air or liquid media observations of single molecules (DNA or proteins).
  • DNA-ligand / protein-protein complexes and partner microtubules.

Partnership with Synsight, a company specialized in in silico molecular modeling, for drug design and molecule safety prediction.

EQUIPMENTS

  • 600 MHz NMR spectrometer equipped with a cryoprobe.
  • Molecular modeling and molecular dynamics software.
  • Spectrofluorometer with fluorescence polarization and temperature control (MD-5020, PTI).
  • 2 Nanoscope Multimode 8 and V9 atomic force microscopes (Bruker).
