Research Departments Medical BioSciences News Interview with Mark van Goor and Jenny van der Wijst

12 November 2019

NierNieuws posted an interview with Mark van Goor and Jenny van der Wijst explaining their published work on the epithelial calcium channel TRPV5.

In collaboration with the groups of Yifan Cheng and David Julius (UCSF, San Francisco, USA), Mark and Jenny employed cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) to resolve atomic-level details of TRPV5, recently published in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.

"Researchers from Radboud University Nijmegen have succeeded in mapping the structure of the TRPV5 ion channel. This protein is found in kidney cells and controls how much calcium go in and out the cells. Jenny van der Wijst PhD and Mark van Goor MSc tell how they came to this breakthrough." - translated from NierNieuws.
