We have 4 main topics:
1) Modular structure in ion channels.
2) Functional/structural mechanisms of voltage-gated K+
channels.
3) Biogenesis of ion channels implicated in calcium
signaling.
4) Microglia/neuron interaction.
We have 4 main topics:
1) Our primary objective is to further understand how ion
channels work in terms of their underlying protein structure.
Specifically, we are interested in the functional/structural
mechanisms of voltage-gated K+ channels.
2) Functional and Structural studies on the modular hypothesis
of different ion channels and receptor channels.
3) Biogenesis of ion channels implicated in calcium
signaling.
4) Microglia/neuron interaction and microglial role on
neuroprotection
