The UV research groups (GIUV) are regulated in the 1st chapter of the Regulation ACGUV48/2013, which explains the procedure for creating new research structures. They are basic research and organizational structures that result from the voluntary association of researchers that share objectives, facilities, resources and common lines of research. These researchers are also committed to the consolidation and stability of their activity, work in groups and the capability to achieve a sustainable funding.

The research groups included in the previously mentioned Regulation are registered in the Register of Research Structures of the Universitat de València (REIUV), managed by the Office of the Vice-principal for Research. The basic information of these organisms can be found in this website.

Description of research activity:
Interactions between proteins play a significant role in the different functions of a cell. The function carried out by each protein is regulated by interaction with other proteins and different types of low molecular weight molecules. These interactions cause a change in the three-dimensional structure of a protein and, therefore, modulate its function. The group's research history has been varied, as it can be seen from the diversity of the members that we wish to be part of it. In addition to being included in the most recent publications of the most recent six-year period of each of the members applying, it must be said that bio-interactions are studied "in vitro", "in silico" and "in vivo". Due to their general complexity, these interactions require special latest technology instruments such as dual-polarisation Interferometry. This line of research focuses on the integration of experimental and computational information for the optimisation of intermolecular interactions. These interactions enable the development of new detection methodologies, as well as the design of new drugs aimed at target molecules involved in diseases and infectious processes.

Furthermore, studies of polymer-solvent binary and ternary interactions allow us to approach the interactions between polymers and biopolymers, as well as a whole world of research on new materials of a polymeric nature.
