Job Description
Missions
The objective will be to identify the most likely protein candidates among microbe–human pairs as targets for further comprehensive investigation. This challenge will be addressed by developing and applying bioinformatics tools capable of predicting protein aggregation and co-aggregation, followed by large-scale scanning of microbial proteomes against the human proteome.
Activity
The objective of the bioinformatics part of the project is the development and application of novel bioinformatics tools for prediction of aggregation and co-aggregation of proteins.
