Research Summary
Before closing his lab, Bob Sauer studied the relationship between protein structure, function, sequence and folding. He focused on the molecular machines that degrade or remodel proteins, targeting proteins for these ATP-dependent reactions. His experimental tools included biochemistry and single-molecule biophysics, structural biology, protein design and engineering, and molecular genetics.
