Ministero dell’Università e della Ricerca, PRIN PNRR 2022 – Linea Giovani, LS1: "Deciphering the molecular basis of insect vitellogenin recognition by its receptor(s)" – Project code P20224WAME
Description
The project deciphers the molecular basis of insect vitellogenin recognition by its receptor or receptors, integrating structural, biochemical and proteomic approaches to understand a key process in insect reproduction.
Role of our laboratory
Recombinant production, structural and molecular investigations of insect vitellogenin recognition and the receptor complexity underlying this essential reproductive pathway.
