The research program of the laboratory (established in 2013) is focused on studying heme-containing sensor proteins using biochemical, molecular biological, physicochemical and computational approaches. The aim is a deeper understanding of signal transduction mechanisms and structure/function relationships of the target proteins having some important practical applications. If you are interested in the secret of hemoproteins you can find more here.
