PhD – Protein Structural Biology and Biophysics – Switzerland
Proteins must fold correctly to function, and this process is tightly regulated by a network of chaperone proteins. At the heart of this network is Hsp90, a molecular chaperone essential for the folding and maturation of at least 20% of all cellular proteins. Hsp90’s malfunction is implicated in cancer, neurodegenerative, and metabolic diseases. Despite its […]
