Structural studies: The nonstructural NS3 protein from the hepatitis C virus is responsible for processing the non-structural region of the viral precursor polyprotein in infected hepatic cells. Fluid Atomic Force Microscopy shows how NS3 needs a structural Zn ion to fold correctly, otherwise is an extended protein.

Structural studies: fluid Atomic Force Microscopy showed that the structure of the apoferritin protein loaded with magnetic oxides –visualized by TEM) is very similar to the natural holoferritin, and both differ from the empty protein.

DNA-protein: Sequential binding model proposed for FurA-PfurA using fluid Atomic Force Microscopy. This is the first binding model of a protein regulator to inactivate a promoter. DNA bending contributes at the first steps of FurA repression promoting the recruitment of new molecules resulting in a fine regulation in the Fur-dependent cluster associated genes.

Enzymatic mechanisms: fluid Atomic Force Microscopy revealed that the coenzyme-mediated A) monomer− B) dimer transition of the human apoptosis-inducing factor modulates the conformation of the proapoptotic domain, as well as its mechanism as reductase: a key information in the understanding of the physiological role of hAIF in the cellular life and death cycle.
