Yuri Nesmelov, PhD
My research interests are focused on biological molecular motors. I study myosin, the protein responsible for force generation in muscle, cell locomotion and intracellular trafficking. I combine protein mutagenesis, site directed labeling, multifrequency electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) and transient time-resolved fluorescence resonance energy transfer (TR2FRET) to explore myosin functional dynamics on molecular and submolecular level.
