The Iberian cryoEM community BAG (III)

The Iberian cryoEM BAG is a consortium of approximately 40 research groups from Portugal and Spain, focused on addressing critical biological questions. These include studies on membrane proteins, disease-related metabolic enzymes, antibiotic resistance, DNA replication and maintenance, protein synthesis, viral structure and replication mechanisms, and macromolecular complexes involved in key cellular processes such as protein folding and degradation. For these groups, electron cryo-microscopy is an indispensable tool, and access to ESRF resources is vital for advancing their research and achieving impactful results.

伊比利亚冷冻电子显微镜（cryoEM）联盟（Iberian cryoEM BAG）是由葡萄牙与西班牙共约40个研究团队组成的联合体，致力于攻克前沿生物学核心难题。其研究范畴涵盖膜蛋白、疾病相关代谢酶、抗生素耐药性、DNA复制与维持、蛋白质合成、病毒结构及复制机制，以及参与蛋白质折叠、降解等关键细胞过程的大分子复合物相关研究。对于该联盟成员而言，冷冻电子显微镜是不可或缺的核心研究工具，而获取欧洲同步辐射装置（ESRF）的科研资源，对于推进其研究进展并取得具有影响力的成果至关重要。
