SIGNALING CIRCUITRY CONTROLLING FUNGAL VIRULENCE: IDENTIFICATION AND CHARACTERIZATION OF CONSERVED AND SPECIFIC FUNGAL VIRULENCE GENES AS COMMON ANTIFUNGAL TARGETS.
ARIADNE uses a comparative biological approach at the systems biology level to identify and validate signalling target genes that play an essential causative role in fungal virulence in both plant and human hosts.
Role of andalusian partner
MAP kinase signaling cascades in the pathogen Fusarium oxysporum.
Impact
ARIADNE will make a key contribution to the field of fungal pathogenesis filling in existing gaps concerning the overall knowledge and the shortage of human capital in the fields of structural and functional genomics, proteomics or cell signaling.
