Lila Gierasch group in (UMass Biochemistry) studies how amino acid sequence determines the three-dimensional structure of a protein. This problem is addressed in the laboratory through the study of how conformational preferences of model peptides guides folding. Detailed studies of in vitro folding of a predominantly b-sheet protein with a very simple topology are also carried out. Methods of use in all of the folding work include circular dichroism, fluorescence, and nuclear magnetic resonance.
