Jakob Schneider is a visiting PhD student from Paul Schanda’s lab in Vienna (Institute of Science and Technology Austria, ISTA). He is studying the structure and function of the Tom70 receptor of mitochondria. Tom70 connects mitochondrial function to the cytosolic proteostasis network. During his research stay in Kaiserslautern in the lab of Hannes Herrmann, Jakob tests the activity of purified proteins in protein import reactions with isolated yeast mitochondria and semi-intact cells. We wish Jakob much success for his project and a good time in Kaisersslautern.
We welcome Jakob to his research stay in our RTG
