In a single yeast cell, the protein machinery is made of an estimated 50,000,000 protein molecules. Understanding how these proteins are organized in space and time with respect to each other to bring about life is a tremendous challenge central to biology, and at the core of our research.
In order to understand principles of protein organization inside cells, we use both in vivo and in silico approaches. These involve biochemistry, protein engineering, genetics, high-throughput screens, as well as in silico analyses of biological data - in particular of structural and network data.
