Professor Dek Woolfson - University of Bristol

The principal aims of the Woolfson lab are (1) to understand the links between protein sequence, structure and function, i.e., the informatics aspect of the protein-folding problem; (2) to apply this knowledge to design entirely new protein structures and assemblies from scratch; and (3) to use these de novo proteins as components for applications in biotechnology, cell biology and synthetic biology.
