| Korber, Philipp |
We study nucleosome positioning mechanisms with unicellular yeasts Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Schizosaccharomyces pombe as in vivo and in vitro model. As our specialty, we established the first genome-wide reconstitution system that allows the biochemical characterization of factors and their roles in nucleosome positioning. |

Next summer, join us in investigating the intricate link between glucose metabolism, transcriptional control and gene regulation in eukaryotes. Our project focuses on how the sugar-tolerance transcription factor ChREBP and its paralogs directly sense cellular metabolites to drive large changes in gene activity. |

Our goal is to understand the molecular principles underlying cargo recognition by transport complexes, complex assembly and activation, and eventually complex disassembly after the transport. |

The Amgen scholar will be involved in designing (cloning) and optimizing (purification) different protein constructs followed by screening LLPS conditions using microscopy and biochemical characterization, ie protein-protein interactions, using nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy, electron microscopy (EM) and other biophysical techniques (ITC, SLS), which will ultimately provide foundation to obtain a structural model of the peroxisomal protein import machinery. |

The research aim of the lab is to investigate how cells know which cell type they are and why they never forget. We employ a wide range of CRISPR methods to brain cells to test in vitro and in vivo, which epigenetic marks and gene activities have functional relevance in mediating cell identity or disease phenotypes. |
