Title: Lactococcus lactis as a promising factory to express & characterize membrane proteins
Dr. Annie FRELET-BARRAND studied biochemistry at the University of
Franche-Comté (France) and was graduated as MS in 1998. In 2006, she received
her PhD degree on membrane proteins (MP) characterization at the Institute of
Plant Biology, Zurich. During her postdoctoral fellowship (CEA Grenoble,
France), she developed L. lactis
system for functional characterization of MPs. In 2009, she became CNRS
Researcher at CEA Saclay, studying MPs involved in liver detoxification. In
2015, she integrated the Institute FEMTO-ST and is now producing and
characterizing by biological, biochemical and biophysical techniques diverse
(nano)biological elements from MPs, vesicles to bacteria and mammalian cells. She
published 33 research articles including 4 book chapters (h=16).
