Research project focused on understanding DNA helicase mechanisms and regulation using advanced biophysical techniques to study their role in DNA repair and genome maintenance.
Description
The project will use advanced biophysical techniques to understand the mechanisms of helicases involved in repairing DNA damage, specifically investigating how helicase interactions with DNA and with accessory proteins regulate their functions.
