Our Group & Teams

Our Group
Our group Molecular Genetics is interested in plant RNA binding proteins and their role in the regulation of chloroplast RNA stability and translation. A dedicated group of plant biologists under the guidance of Julia Legen are trying to wrestle the secrets from a mysterious family of chloroplast RRM proteins. A separate group tries to understand how the tiny mitochondrial genome of Apicomplexans is expressed.
