Functional analysis of bacterial type III effector proteins in plants
Many gram-negative plant pathogenic bacteria have acquired a highly conserved type III secretion system (T3SS) which enables them to inject so called ...
| Head (acting) of Programme Area 1
Head of Research Group 1.2 Professor for Plant Metabolism Institute of Biology and Biochemistry Universität Potsdam |
|
| Research profile | |
| Main research areas are the analysis of the regulatory properties of enzymes of primary plant metabolism, the control of gene expression through metabolic signals, and the regulation of cellular processes through protein-protein interactions. Beyond that, he is studying plant-bacteria interactions on the molecular level in order to understand how pathogens re-program host cellular processes for their own benefit. This also involves the analysis of plants as hosts for human enteropathogenic bacteria. | |
