U1306 – Host-Microbe interactions and pathophysiology
The cell envelope of Gram-negative bacteria is a complex structure composed of two membranes and a cell wall. The cell wall determines cell shape and protects the cell from bursting due to osmotic pressure. […]

Bacterial transmembrane systems
On the cover: Type IV pili (T4P), long and flexible appendages at the surface of many bacteria, are critical virulence factors. Pili of enterohemorrhagic E. coli (EHEC), an important human pathogen, are polymers of […]

In the Cell, Proteins and Nucleic Acid assemble into larger structures, called macromolecular complexes. These complexes are specialized biological machineries that accomplish fundamental tasks that are at the basis of life. I employ computer modeling […]

Group: Biochemistry and chemobiology
My research interests are mainly focused on the structure-function relationships of macromolecules through multidisciplinary approaches. My studies have been concentrated on crucial enzymes belonging to the nucleotide metabolism, in particular nucleoside monophosphate kinases (NMPKs) […]
