〖Welcome〗

Welcome to CSY Photochemistry & Structural Biology Lab at
Department of Biochemical Science and Technology (BST)
National Taiwan University

〖一鍵瞭解〗

我們是在國立臺灣大學生化科技系的生物感光與結構生物學實驗室。

主要研究的方向,是以生物化學和生物物理技術,研究 G-protein 和微生物的感光蛋白質。對這些微生物的「眼睛」做基礎生理,並以應用於生化/生命科學、生物科技、生物醫學為方向。

〖Our Research Target
Biochemical and Biophysical methods are adopted to study:

1. Proteins involve in photo-biology of all life forms.  
2. G-protein signaling in plant and higher life form.
3. Bio-mimicry using light-triggered proteins.
4. Microbial rhodopsins application in Biotechnology


〖Research Tools Available In This Lab〗

The technology adopted for our study include:
    •    Structural resolving: Crystallography / X-ray diffraction / CCP4 / Phenix
    •    CryoEM single particle analysis: CryoSPARC / Relion /EMAN 2
    •    Membrane and soluble protein mutation, expression, purification
    •    Protein crystal growing: Lipid Cubic Phase / General sitting or hanging drop
    •    UV-vis spectrophotometer
    •    Fluorescent Spectrophotometer
    •    Flash laser photolysis system
    •    ITO-based time-resolved photo-chemcial current / conductivity signal measurements
    •    Homemade phototaxis motion analysis system for microbes
    •    Ion-transportation including light-driven proton and chloride transportation (photocurrent) measurements for ion-type microbial rhodopsins
