This project explores the role of multigene families in pathogenic bacteria and their interactions with host cells. It employs a Systems Biology approach to identify how these proteins contribute to virulence and host-pathogen dynamics.
The genomes of pathogenic bacteria often contain multiple copies of genes with similar sequence.
The encoded proteins are generally secreted or associated with the bacterial surface and are thus likely to be involved in the host-pathogen interaction.
However, the functions of these multigene families in pathogenesis remain largely unknown.
We will investigate the role of bacterial multigene family proteins in the host-pathogen interaction taking a Systems Biology-based approach.
We will focus on…
