High-resolution cryoEM of soluble multi-protein complexes

Research by Janet Vonck & Werner Kühlbrandt

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.

Respiratory chain complexes

Project Group of Structural Biology Department

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.

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.
