Department of Medical Biochemistry and Biophysics

Researching nucleotide metabolism – enzymes, regulation and drug development.

I lead a research group investigating the molecular basis of mitochondrial protein quality control, with a focus on proteostasis of mitochondrially encoded proteins.

Professor of Medical Biochemistry

dNTPs and maintenance of genome stability

PhD

Professor of Biomedicine

Associate Dean for Research of the Faculty of Medicine

I am a communications officer at Chemical Biological Centre (KBC, www.umu.se/en/kbc)

Professor in medical biochemistry

Targeting the nucleotide metabolism of protozoan parasites.

Yeast geneticist. Using the Saccharomyces cerevisiae model to investigate segmental duplications of the genome in vivo.

Himanshu Sharma has been awarded the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions postdoctoral fellowship to investigate the infection mechanisms of the intriguing parasites Microsporidia.

Protein physics and biophysics.

My research is focussed on Type 4 secretion systems, which bacteria use to spread antibiotic resistance and virulence factors.

My research area is biomolecular function from molecular scale to global scale.

Kasturika is a PhD student in the Carlson lab where she is investigating the molecular mechanism of Enterovirus replication using biochemistry and structural biology techniques.

I lead a research group that studies human viruses and the molecular mechanisms that they use to replicate themselves.

Amyloid formation - from molecular mechanisms to disease and novel nanomaterials

Maintenance of genome integrity by DNA Helicases

Pallabi Sengupta is a Wenner-Gren post-doctoral fellow in Nasim Sabouri's research group. She investigates the structural organization and biological implications of i-motif DNA in the cells.

I lead a research group that focuses on mitochondrial DNA and the molecular mechanisms that mediate the signaling of its instability.

I am a postdoc in Anna Arnqvist’s group. My research focuses on the gene regulations of Helicobacter pylori during different environmental stresses.

Structural biology of Type 4 Secretion Systems from Gram-positive bacteria.

Selma Dahmane is a postdoc in Lars-Anders Carlson’s group.

Molecular mechanism of DNA repair and replication in human mitochondria

The mediator complex and its function in transcriptional regulation at the molecular level

Protein-carbohydrate interactions during health and disease

I do reserach on extracellular matrix degrading proteases and their inhibitors.

I am a postdoc researcher in Ronnie Berntsson’s group. I am an enthusiastic bacteriologist, particularly interested in antibiotic resistance/tolerance and pathogenesis.
