Direct visualization of the small hydrophobic protein of human respiratory syncytial virus reveals the structural basis for membrane permeability [PDF]
, 2010 Human respiratory syncytial virus (HRSV) is the leading cause of lower respiratory tract disease in infants. The HRSV small hydrophobic (SH) protein plays an important role in HRSV pathogenesis, although its mode of action is unclear.

Small Ion Channel Linking Molecular Simulations and Electrophysiology [PDF]
Ion channels are pore-forming protein assemblies that mediate the transport of small ions across cell membranes. Otherwise, membrane bilayers would be almost impermeable to ions incapable to traverse the low dielectric constant, hydrophobic membrane core.

Investigation of Molecular Mechanism of JC virus Viroporin Activity
Uirusu, 2015 Viroporins are small and hydrophobic viral proteins that form pores on host cell membranes, and their expression can increase the permeability of cellular membranes and the production of progeny virus particles. JC virus (JCV) is the causative agent of progressive multifocal leukoenchephalopathy (PML).

Biophysical mechanisms of membrane perturbation and signal transduction produced by proteins and peptides [PDF]
, 2015 My primary research interest is focused on the field of cellular electrical activity, ranging from the ion channels that generates it, up to the study of intracellular processes regulating it, and new generation of drugs. For this purpose, during my Ph.D.
