Arnaud Basle

Dr. Arnaud Basle is a Researcher at Newcastle University, specializing in structural biology and biochemistry. His work focuses on bacterial physiology, glycan metabolism, and metal homeostasis, with a particular emphasis on enzyme mechanisms and protein structure-function relationships.

• Research Themes: Structural analysis of bacterial enzymes (e.g., polysaccharide lyases, glycoside hydrolases), copper transport systems, and outer membrane protein complexes.
• Collaborations: Professor Bert van den Berg, Dr. Alan Cartmell, Professor Harry Gilbert (Emeritus), and Dr. Jon Marles-Wright.
• Recent Trends: Studies on glycan uptake systems in gut Bacteroidetes, thermostable biocatalysts, and ribosome hibernation factors.
