Background

Dr Kobe's research interests are in protein structure and function, focussing particularly on proteins involved in the processes of infection and immunity.

The primary techniques used in the laboratory are X-ray crystallography and cryo-electron microscopy, combined with a plethora of other molecular biology, biophysical and computational techniques.

Current projects include:

  • Structural basis of signalling by cooperative assembly formation (SCAF) in innate immunity and cell-death pathways, in particular Toll-like receptors and interleukin-1 receptors
  • Structural basis of plant disease resistance - particularly plant NLRs and the correponding pathogen effector proteins
  • Molecular and structural basis of function of proteins from pathogens (fungal, bacterial and viral pathogens)

Fields of research

Biological Sciences Plant biology

Qualifications

  • Bachelor of Science, University of Ljubljana
  • Doctor of Philosophy of Biochemistry and Biophysics, University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center

Research interests

  • Protein structure and function

    The group’s research theme is protein structure and function, with the emphasis on understanding the structural basis of intra- and intermolecular interactions formed by these macromolecules and inferring function from structure. The biological focus is on proteins involved in infection and immunity. The goal of the research is to use structural and molecular information to understand the molecular and cellular functions of proteins, validate proteins as therapeutic targets or biotechnological products, and to design new therapeutics and biotechnological applications. The primary techniques used in the laboratory are X-ray crystallography and cryo-electron microscopy, combined with a plethora of other molecular biology, biophysical and computational techniques

Research impacts

We focus on basic research that provides a foundsation for applications in medicine (inflammatory, neurodegenerative and infectious disease) anf agriculture (improving plant disease resistance).
