Laboratory of Structural Biology of G-protein Coupled Receptors

The Laboratory of Structural Biology of G-protein Coupled Receptors focuses on structural and functional studies of G-protein coupled receptors (GPCR). We use a multidisciplinary structural-biological approach in which we combine computer methods with a wide range of biophysical methods (crystallography, the fluorescence of single molecules, electron microscopy, NMR, mass spectrometry, etc.) to find answers to questions concerning the mechanisms of ligand recognition and signal transmission in GPCR.
To carry out this activity, the laboratory works in close cooperation with leading research centers in Europe, the United States, and China.
