Project description:Comparative genomic analysis of T. cruzi CLB vs Trypanosoma rangeli (strains SC, Choachí, C23, H14, R1625 and PIT10) and Trypanosoma conorhini
Project description:This laboratory is focusing on to clarify the biologic relevance of a virulence factor known as trans-sialidase from Trypanosoma cruzi, the agent of the Chagas disease (American trypanosomiasis).

Project description:Antibody recognition of Trypanosoma cruzi conserved proteins was assessed by evaluating pools of patient IgG samples on microarrays of 400,000 peptides covering these proteins as 15-mers with an overlap of 13 amino acids.
