Vandana submitted her PhD thesis entitled ‘Development of dual-(+1)-Fluorescence Correlation Spectroscopy for Monitoring Protein Oligomerization Leading to Membrane Pore Formation’ that she plans to defend at MATFYZ, Charles University in November 2024. Congratulations!!!
Our BJ paper on the role of oxidized lipids in the BAX induced cell apoptosis is finally out! Congrats to Pawel et al for this great achievement!This work demonstrates that a consistent amount of membrane-associated BAX molecules is required to open pores of sufficient size for the passage of…
A paper entitled ‘Lipid conjugate dissociation analysis improves the in vivo understanding of lipid-based nanomedicine’ published in the Journal of Controlled Release is now out. Our contribution to this comprehensive study involved biophysical experiments that deepened our understanding of the…
Our eLife paper ‘Disulfide bridge- dependent dimerization triggers FGF2 membrane translocation into the extracellular space’ has been published in its revised form. The paper is a result of successful collaboration with Walter Nickel’s lab in Heidelberg. The paper reports important findings,…
Micromanipulator of Giant Lipid Vesicles (GUVs) connected with a Fluorescence Lifetime Imaging confocal Microscope (FLIM) is in our lab. ‘Micropipetting’ GUVs is an innovative, highly promising method for studying lipid membranes in response to altered membrane mechanical properties such as…
