Our team is part of the

• Membrane Research Group of the Hungarian Academy of Sciences
  head: Balazs Sarkadi
  

and associated with the

• Department of Biophysics at Semmelweis University
  head: Miklos Kellermayer.

Although start-up packages are unusual in Hungary, both Balazs and Miklos help us in the starting in many ways. Thanks!

We are an experimental and computation group studying ATP Binding Cassette (ABC) proteins. The altered function or expression of ABC proteins lead to various diseases, such as pseudoxanthoma elasticum, cystic fibrosis, diabetes mellitus type II, adrenoleukodystrophy, etc.

We aim to understand the molecular level processes resulting in ABC associated disorders and design strategies to overcome the effect of the altered functional state of ABC proteins.

We use methods in cell biology, biochemistry, and biophysics in combination with cutting edge computational approaches to study the function and structure of ABC proteins. See more details in the Research and Publications sections.
