Expertise
The Institut Jacques Monod is dedicated to fundamental research in molecular, cell and developmental biology. As part of the Genome Biology department, the Biomolecular Nanomanipulation group focuses on using single-molecule nanomanipulation and visualization approaches to study protein-DNA interactions in real-time. Our research themes include the regulation of DNA transcription, replication and repair by molecular motor proteins such as RNA polymerases, DNA helicases, and other DNA translocases..
