Max Planck Institute for Empirical AestheticsAbout
Herbert Zimmermann is a Professor at the Goethe University Frankfurt, affiliated with the Institute of Cell Biology and Neuroscience. His research focuses on nucleotide signaling and adult neurogenesis, particularly the role of ectonucleotidases in neural stem cell regulation. He also leads projects in synaptic vesicle proteomics, investigating molecular machinery involved in neurotransmitter release.
His work utilizes advanced techniques such as immunoaffinity purification, mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF-MS and nano-LC ESI-MS/MS), and neural stem cell culturing. Recent publications highlight studies on:
- Microglial P2Y13 receptor disruption in neurogenesis (2018)
- Adenylyl cyclase interactions with adenosine receptors (2018)
- CD73 inhibitor development (2019, 2020)
- Historical perspectives on ectonucleotidase research (2020)
Current research emphasizes molecular characterization of synaptic proteins and signaling pathways in neural development.
