Molecular Biotechnology of Plants and Micro-organisms

The main fundamental research questions in the MBPM division are related to the elucidation of environmental-induced signal transduction pathways in yeast, pathogenic fungi and plants and how these pathways affect phenotypes such as growth, development (plants), immune priming, stress tolerance, fermentation capacity, morphogenesis and virulence. The fungal groups also use yeast as ...

Biological role of ECM1 in the human skin. The extracellular matrix proteine 1 gene (ECM1) was isolated in our laboratory in 1994 and encodes for a secreted glycoprotein with a typical cystein CC-(X7-10)-C pattern. Four splice variants have been described so far: Ecm1a (540 aa), Ecm1b (415 aa), Ecm1c (559 aa) and a truncated protein of 57 aa. Ecm1 has been shown to play a role in endochondral bone formation, morphogenesis of the nephron and is a ...
