Ongoing projects (highly summarized) | Projetos em andamento (bem resumidamente)

  • Evolution of the ubiquitin system. We aim to understand how the ubiquitin system evolved across different lineages. We integrate protein interaction, genetic, gene expression and comparative genomics data to investigate different aspects of the ubiquitin pathway. Special focus has been given to plants.
  • Soybean transcriptome. Here we integrate different gene expression datasets with the recently sequence soybean genome to find important regulatory pathways and how they evolved in the soybean lineage. Also, we want to understand what is the impact of whole genome duplications (polyploidization) in this process.
