Biochemistry @ Bristol
Welcome.
This is the homepage for Paul Curnow. I am a Research
Associate in the Department of Biochemistry at the University
of Bristol, UK, with interests in the folding and
reconstitution of integral membrane proteins and the potential
application of these proteins in nanotechnology.I am currently working with Professor Paula Booth on the reversible unfolding of the proton pump bacteriorhodopsin. Previously, I was a postdoctoral Fellow at the University of California, Santa Barbara in the lab of Daniel Morse where I used the outer membrane protein OmpA as a scaffold for cell surface display. My PhD studies, also at Bristol, concerned the reconstitution of the multidrug transporter EmrE.
I was recently awarded the 2009 Early Career Research Award in Bioenergetics and Metabolism from the Biochemical Society.
Recent publications can be found here, and a more detailed research synopsis here.
