Project description:Studies of expression of mechanims of defense of the Acinetobacter sp.5-2Ac.02 from airborne hospital environment under stress conditions, such as SOS response (ROS response, heavy metals resistant mechanisms, peptides), as well as Quorum network (acetoin cluster and aromatics biodegradation cluster). Characterization functional of AcoN-like as negative regulator protein from acetoin cluster in Acinetobacter spp. Strains
Project description:The objective of this study is to provide a novel method to study multigene proteins in Plasmodium spp. The method is based on selection linked integration (SLI), which allows positive selection of genomic integration events. By targeting specific members of multigene families, parasites are being selected for not only genomic integration but also expression of the targeted gene under its endogenous promoter
