A System for Carrying Out Active Microrheology to Probe Viscoelasticity of Protein
Indian Patent No. 539208 (27-May-2022)

In collaboration with Dr. Ayan Banerjee’s laboratory at the Physics Department, IISER, Kolkata, we developed a novel active microrheology-based method using pulsed optical tweezers (Soft Matter, Jul 2021;17(28):6787-6796. doi: 10.1039/d1sm00293g). This method determines the viscoelasticity of lamin A protein and its mutants in vitro, corroborating the significant alterations in nuclear plasticity in the cell as a disease phenotype. The method is fast, robust, and highly reproducible, requiring minimal sample amounts, making it suitable for translation into a biological toolkit.
