Short description of research profile

Understanding mechanisms of action of small proteins and peptides in biological systems. As a part of a large international (Poland, South Korea, USA, Argentina, France, Sweden) informal research group we participate in a project to develop what is called a coarse-grained (simplified) model of polypeptide chain called UNRES (UNited RESidues). (www.unres.pl)

Search and study of short peptide sequences having a defined spatial structure and showing the ability to catalyze chemical reactions.
