Title:

Trapping allosteric regulatory states of ABC transporters for cryo-EM

(英語の後に、日本語での案内もあります。)

Dr. Thomas Tomasiak is currently the assistant professor at the Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry, University of Arizona. His primary research focuses on understanding the molecular mechanisms of the solute transport system across the membrane. He has recently published a series of impressive works on the ABC transport system and its regulation, combining biochemical and structural biology methods (Thaker et al. Nat. Chem. Biol. 2022, Khandelwal et al. Nat. Commun. 2022, etc.). In this presentation, he will present his latest work including sample preparation for functional/structural studies.

第11回 SBRC International Cryo-EM Seminar

JOINT SEMINAR with Tsukuba Purification Forum

日時:

2022年4月21日(木)午前9時30分~(日本時間)(Zoom Online)

(参照:2022年4月20日(水)午後5時30分(USA – MST時間)) 

スピーカー : Thomas Tomasiak, Ph.D. (アリゾナ大学)

タイトル : Trapping allosteric regulatory states of ABC transporters for cryo-EM

Thomas Tomasiak博士はアリゾナ大学のPIで膜輸送の分子メカニズムの解明を主に研究しています。最近では生化学と構造生物学の手法を組み合わせたABC transporterに関する研究を発表しています(Thaker et al. Nat. Chem. Biol. 2022, Khandelwal et al. Nat. Commun. 2022 等)。本講演ではABCトランポーターの最新の結果と共に、試料の調製、精製などについても話していただける予定です。
