I work in the Your Lab at XYZ University. I learned about OpenWetWare from iGEM, and I've joined because protein targeting to cell membranes; molecular mechanisms. Molecular chaperone action in posttranslational protein targeting.

IMPORT OF AVSUNVIROIDAE AND VIROID TRAFICKING
The multi‑domain FKBP TWISTED
DWARF1 (TWD1)/FKBP42, has been shown to reside on both the vacuolar and plasma
membranes
it interacts in mirror image with two pairs of ABC transporters,
MRP1/ MRP2 and PGP1/PGP19(MDR1), respectively.
Twisted dwarf1 and pgp1/pgp19
mutants display strongly overlapping phenotypes, including reduction and disorientation
of growth, suggesting functional interaction
All FKBP‑type immunophilins share a characteristic peptidyl‑prolyl
cis‑trans isomerase domain
Twenty-three FKBP‑type proteins have been identified in the Arabidopsis thaliana
genome, however, the function of individual FKBPs in plant biology is poorly understood
Research interests
RNA-templated RNA replication Chrysanthemum chlorotic mottle viroid Ascochyta (Mycosphaerella)
