This is the final annual report from our Focus Group for Cellular Protein Biochemistry at the TUM-IAS. Matthias Feige, heading the group as a Rudolf Mößbauer Tenure Track Assistant Professor, has just obtained tenure and now continues his career as Associate Professor for Cellular Protein Biochemistry at TUM. This provides the opportunity to summarize some our achievements during the Fellowship as well to provide a few glimpses of the path ahead. full report …
Short CV
Professor Matthias Feige studied biochemistry at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology (ETH Zurich) and TUM. In 2009, he obtained his PhD in biochemistry under the supervision of Johannes Buchner at TUM. As a postdoctoral fellow in the laboratory of Linda Hendershot at the St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, Memphis, TN, USA, he expanded his research toward cell biology and now heads the laboratory for cellular protein biochemistry at TUM.

Research Interests
Matthias Feige’s laboratory aims at understanding how cells control and maintain the integrity of their proteome. He is particularly interested in proteins of the secretory pathway – proteins that are ultimately secreted or localized on the cell surface and allow cells to interact with their environment. Using an interdisciplinary approach from protein biochemistry to cell biology, he analyzes the machinery and mechanisms that monitor cellular protein biogenesis. By focusing on proteins of immunological and biomedical relevance, he seeks a molecular understanding of fundamental biological processes that at the same time may help in developing new approaches for protein engineering and human therapy.
