该项目旨在解开一个主要的蛋白质超家族如何能够在细胞膜上钻孔的分子细节。动物、植物、真菌和细菌都使用成孔蛋白作为大规模杀伤细胞的武器。尽管它们具有致命的性质,并且在感染和免疫中发挥作用,但这些蛋白质如何工作仍然是个谜。项目成果可以揭示这些必需蛋白质的新机制,并为理解所有生命王国的重要生理过程提供基本见解。最终,所获得的知识可能会被证明是有用的工程膜孔作为高度特异性的传感器的各种分子与纳米技术和生物技术的应用。
英文摘要
This project aims to unravel missing molecular details of how a major superfamily of proteins is able to drill holes in cell membranes. Animals, plants, fungi and bacteria all use pore-forming proteins as cell-killing weapons of mass destruction. Despite their lethal nature and their roles in infection and immunity, how these proteins work remains enigmatic. Project outcomes could reveal novel mechanisms general to these essential proteins and provide fundamental insights in understanding vital physiological processes across all kingdoms of life. Ultimately, the knowledge gained may prove useful in the engineering of membrane pores as highly specific sensors for a variety of molecules with nanotechnology and biotechnology applications.
