Statement of Research Interest
What are the molecular mechanisms how single amino acid variations cause disease? How can one distinguish varitions with no or only mild effect from disease-causing variations? A major mechanism is misfoding of the variant proteins. Molecular chaperones can rescue deficient folding and my studies on deficiency of the mitochondrial HSP60/HSP10 chaperone complex enlightens these mechanisms.
