Funded Activity Summary

Structural and functional studies on prokaryote serpins. Proteins are the machines of life, many of which undergo complex movements to achieve function. The basic research described in this proposal will result in major outcomes in understanding how proteins fold, undergo complex changes in conformation, and misfold to dysfunctional states. As a result, the study will contribute fundamental knowledge that will underpin research in the fields of structural biology, protein design and protein folding. Through providing insight into protein misfolding, the work will will contribute to our understanding of degenerative misfolding pathologies that affect the ageing population and thus targets the 'ageing well ageing productively' priority goal.
