1. Systems Biology of Yeast Lipid Metabolism
Abstract : Lipid metabolism plays an important role in the development of many different life-style related diseases, such as type 2 diabetes and atherosclerosis, and understanding the molecular mechanisms behind regulation of lipid biosynthesis and degradation may lead to development of new therapies. In this project we undertook a global study of lipid metabolism in the eukaryotic model organism Saccharomyces cerevisiae. READ MORE

2. A molecular chaperone that governs membrane contact sites and lipid metabolism
Abstract : Transmembrane proteins represent almost one third of the total cellular proteome, and the majority of them requires translocation into the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) to be folded, sorted and transported to their final subcellular destination. High translational rates during exponential cell growth result in a massive influx of immature proteins into the ER, requiring rapid and accurate folding. READ MORE
