中央研究院化學研究所

我們實驗室擅長使用先進生物造影術擷取蛋白質巨分子的單分子結構和動態。這樣的結構資訊(通常是多重結構)代表蛋白質機器在執行功能的結構，具有生理意義。具體來說我們使用原子解析度冷凍電子顯微鏡和單分子螢光顯微術以及發展機器學習運算法術，廣泛探討控制人類遺傳訊息傳遞和修復的蛋白質巨分子，病毒的入侵，以及甲烷如何變成甲醇的機轉。目前我們破解的結構有：核醣核酸聚合酶的原子結構，魚類病毒的原子結構，還有嗜甲烷菌的膜蛋白的冷凍電子顯微鏡結構。解析和侵入細胞的機理。我們借助了酵母菌分子生物學來開發蛋白質純化和化學標記的方法，使得我們直接觀察到第二型和第三型核醣核酸聚合酶的亞單元體的振動。我們將要把這些方法應用到針對新冠肺炎核醣核酸聚合酶的藥物開發上。
