Starting March 1, 2024, Dr. Maria Sokolova will investigate the mechanisms of transcription by phage RNA polymerases in her Lise Meitner Research Group Bacteriophages at the Max Planck Institute (MPI) of Biochemistry. Bacteriophages, or phages for short, are viruses that infect bacteria. Investigating an enzyme called RNA polymerase in phages promises the further improvement and development of novel tools in mRNA vaccine production and other biotechnological applications.
