Aritz Roa Eguiara serves as a Researcher at the Novo Nordisk Foundation Center for Protein Research, University of Copenhagen, within the Taylor Group. His position focuses on structural and functional analysis of protein complexes in bacterial systems.
His primary research areas include Structural Biology, Molecular Microbiology, Bacterial Motility, and Phage Biology. Specifically, he investigates the molecular mechanisms of anti-phage defense systems, the structure of phage tail fibers, and the ion selectivity of bacterial flagellar motors. His work employs cutting-edge techniques in cryo-electron microscopy and structural bioinformatics to unravel complex protein interactions.
Analysis of his recent publications reveals a strong emphasis on microbial defense and motility. The three most recent articles (2023-2025) cover phage tail fiber structures, the Zorya anti-phage system, and Vibrio flagellar stator units. These studies collectively advance our understanding of protein structure-function relationships in bacterial pathogens and their viral predators.
