Our laboratory is interested in the identification and characterization of nuclear genes that affect mitochondrial function and the biogenesis of mitochondrial proteins, specially those involved in the biogenesis of Fe-S clusters and maturation of Fe-S proteins in plant and algae.

We are also interested in plant polysaccharide metabolism and plant metabolic engineering for the development of design starches.

 

Research projects
Plant Biotechnology for the production of design starches
Structure-function studies of enzymes involved in polysaccharide metabolism
Strategies for the production of male-sterile plants
Biogenesis and regulation of mitochondrial proteins
