Structural Biology Brussels Vrije Universiteit Brussel

Responsible

Structural biology is a central discipline in molecular life sciences, and our Center for Structural Biology (CSB) has been a cornerstone of the research conducted at the VUB and the VIB, first under the leadership of Lode Wyns, and more recently under the guidance of Jan Steyaert and Han Remaut. The Center has made several top-tier discoveries, of which Nanobody technology has been running like a tread through the history of CSB. The centre ...

VIB-VUB Center for Structural Biology Flanders Institute for Biotechnology

At the VIB-VUB Center for Structural Biology (CSB), we study the structure and dynamics of macromolecular complexes in health and disease to explain their mode of action. We integrate our structural biology work with genetic and cellular studies, aiming to bridge molecular and cellular resolution. We excel in translating our discoveries into biotechnological and medical applications.

Structural Biology Brussels Vrije Universiteit Brussel

The Structural Biology Brussels Lab, headed by Jan Steyaert was founded by Lode Wyns in the seventies at the Vrije Universiteit Brussel and is one of the Flanders Institute for Biotechnology departments. The understanding of the function of a protein, from its structure to its dynamics, remains the central theme of the lab. Our multidisciplinary team of about 40 researchers is housed in new laboratory facilities and combines extensive ...

Studying the structure and function of membrane proteins, with a particular emphasis on lipid biology and ion channels in membrane transport.

Efremov Lab Flanders Institute for Biotechnology

Responsible
Understand how biological molecular machines work, understanding how numerous factors alter the protein conformation and regulate the ion transport , determining the high-resolution structures of ryanodine receptors in multiple functional states, development of the method of single particle cryo-EM.

Loris Lab Flanders Institute for Biotechnology

Responsible
Research on proteins and their mechanisms of action, research on how proteins function in a cell, with a special interest on functional intrinsic disorder and dynamics.

Messens Lab Flanders Institute for Biotechnology

Responsible
Identifying redox-sensitive proteins and to define the architecture and conformational flexibility of redox-relay signaling complexes, understanding the crosstalk between redox and metabolite signaling, we develop new tools for sensing subcellular metabolite flux.
