Genetic information leads the entire physiological cell functioning. We study the nature of the genetic material and the molecular mechanisms that regulate gene expression.
Our approaches deal with the analyses of the ancient processes that produced the present informational molecules and,... -
The research projects carried out by our group fall into four main research fields: structure, function and integrity of chromatin, genetic control of cell division, molecular mechanisms of ageing and diseases, evolution. Different aspects of these broad topics are specifically analyzed, using...
