Objective: A "Magic Machine" for Creating Membrane Protein Crystals Very Rapidly
I am interested in using a combination of approaches including biomolecular materials, synthetic biology, and electron crystallography (and with strong foundations in molecular biology and biochemistry) in order to create a general method for building protein crystals (particularly for membrane proteins) in a deterministic fashion.
I think that most of the technology to create this "magic machine" or tool for creating membrane protein crystals already exists, however, it will take some time to put all the pieces together to create a working prototype.
Helping me in this adventure are my collaborators and undergraduate students.
