A team around UniSysCat group leader Adam Lange shows a new way how to measure the interaction of membrane proteins with different lipids and the influence of lipid exchange on the stability and activity of the protein.

An interdisciplinary UniSysCat team uses molecular imprinting to immobilize and exploit enzymes for heterogenous catalysis.

A team around the UniSysCat groups of Holger Dobbek, Petra Wendler and Athina Zouni visualize the structure of photosystem II at unprecedented resolution - thanks to cryo-electron microscopy.

A team of UniSysCat scientists from TU Berlin, Fritz-Haber-Institut and BasCat (UniCat BASF JointLab) developed a new catalyst for propane dehydrogenation based on cobalt nanoclusters.

In a recent study, a team of UniSysCat researchers investigated the extent to which their heterostructured electrocatalysts based on non-noble metals can actually compete with noble metals when operated for longer times.

Scientists from BasCat (UniCat BASF JointLab) and the Fritz Haber Institute developed an accelerated discovery approach for the catalytic production of propylene that can compete with a procedure developed over decades.

By combining different spectroscopy methods, the UniSysCat groups of Holger Dau, Peter Hildebrandt and Kallol Ray have gained new insights into the function of the active site of the enzyme SOR.

UniSysCat researchers design surfaces with asymmetric metal pairs to promote electrochemical valorization of CO2 into multicarbon e-chemicals.

UniSysCat group leader Martin Oestreich and coworkers just published a paper in Nature on a catalytic halodealkylation of fully alkylated silanes by making use of a sacrificial Friedel–Crafts reaction.

Rhomboid proteases are promising targets for drug development. Researchers from the Leibniz-Forschungsinstitut für Molekulare Pharmakologie (FMP) and UniSysCat have published new findings about them in Science Advances.
