2021
| Project | Info |
|---|---|
| Cell surface clusters of MHC class I molecules | The two-hybrid antibody micropattern technique, which distinguishes the conformational forms of class I MHC, is used to study the formation of these clusters, their structure and their physiological role. This work is complemented by single molecule microscopy, biochemistry and in silico studies. (Dr. Peter Lanzertorfer, FWF JOINT, 276.853,- Euro) |
| PhytoFERM | Microencapsulation and fermentation of plant substances to increase their biological effectiveness (FFG, dissertation program of the University of Applied Sciences Upper Austria, 120,000 euros) |
