LOCATION: Building 8, 1st Floor, Room Ia.005
RESEARCH TOPICS:
- Functional characterization of plant and animal ion channels and transporters.
- Investigation of permeabilization mechanisms of pore-forming macromolecules in Black Lipid Membranes.
The activity of the laboratory directed by Carpaneto has been devoted to the investigation
of the molecular mechanisms controlling ion transport through plant/animal vacuolar/plasma membranes
using electrophysiological, biophysico-chemical and wide-field fluorescence microscopy techniques.
RESEARCH GROUP MEMBERS: Armando Carpaneto, Antonella Gradogna (IBF-CNR), Cristiana Picco (IBF-CNR)
