Research
interest
My career focuses in the
functional/structural characterization of proteins involved in
host-pathogen interactions and membrane trafficking processes linked to
human disease as main topic, giving also important attention to other
fundamental events such as redox processes. At present my main interest
centres in the structural and functional characterization of virulence
factors from Mycobacterium
tuberculosis, the causative agent of human tuberculosis.
My goal is understanding the molecular basis governing host-pathogen
interactions not fully understood so far in this infectious agent,
information that may lead to find new drug targets and developing new
strategies to fight tuberculosis.
