معرفی
Udo Bläsi is a Professor at the Max Perutz Labs, affiliated with the Department of Microbiology, Immunobiology and Genetics. His research focuses on translational regulation, RNA-protein interactions, and bacterial pathogenesis, particularly in Pseudomonas aeruginosa and archaeal systems like Sulfolobus solfataricus. He leads projects on small RNAs, Hfq-Crc regulatory networks, and antimicrobial resistance mechanisms. Over 100 peer-reviewed publications span topics including ribonucleoprotein complexes, gene expression control, and bacterial physiology. Collaborations highlight global networks in microbiology and molecular biology.
Research interests include:
- RNA regulatory mechanisms
- Translational control in bacteria/archaea
- Antimicrobial resistance
- Hfq-mediated riboregulation
- Archaeal translation machinery
Notable projects (2020-2023) investigate small RNAs' role in antibiotic susceptibility and P. aeruginosa virulence. Recent articles emphasize structural biology of Hfq-Crc assemblies and CrcZ RNA's role in biofilm formation. Grants and collaborations fund explorations into metabolic regulation and bacterial genetics.
Labs/teams: Active in Max Perutz Labs' microbiology and immunobiology divisions, with contributions to structural and functional studies of RNA-protein complexes.
