Mechanisms of adaptation to abiotic stress in plants

Our work is focused on the study of the role of the fibrillins (FBNs) in the protection of photosystems against abiotic stresses. FBNs are a family…

Regulatory RNAs in Cyanobacteria

The regulatory mechanisms orchestrated by non-coding RNAs have emerged in recent years as ubiquitous in all living beings. In particular, bacterial…

Stress response and synthetic biology of photosynthetic microorganisms

The main objective of our group is the improvement of the productivity of photosynthetic microorganisms with applications in biotechnology and…

Structural and functional regulation of Arabidopsis thaliana telomeres

Our group studies the regulation of the structure and function of Arabidopsis thaliana telomeres and is integrated since it started by Dr. Miguel…

Molecular mechanisms of signaling through G proteins

Along the years our group has aim to understand the processes of signal transduction that let to changes in cell structure and function in physiology…

Regulation of the proteasome: control of cellular homeostasis and design of novel therapeutical approaches.

The goal of the lab is to examine novel levels of regulation of the proteasome pathway focusing on the mechanisms that control proteasome function…

Multivalent networking and synaptic plasticity

The connections in our brains are constantly changing. As we interact with the environment and each other, connections between our neurons are…

The endocytic pathway and the actin cytoskeleton

We aim at unveiling the molecular mechanisms supporting endocytic traffic, with a particular focus on the role that actin and lipids play in the…

Neural Proliferation Control

The main interest of our group is the control of proliferation and differentiation processes along nervous system development. Germ line and somatic…
