New research aims to unlock how biological proteins fold and become functional . Christian Kaiser (pictured third from left) and his research team at Utrecht University. Utrecht University has appointed Christian Kaiser as professor of Biophysical Chemistry of Membranes and Proteins. Kaiser and his team will explore the way biological proteins are produced, processed and transported in the cell. Fundamental insights into these mechanisms could pave the way for new approaches to combat protein-related diseases, such as dementia and cystic fibrosis. Proteins are fundamental building blocks of life, and play a crucial role in constructing and maintaining organisms. But the central role that proteins play also has a downside.
