The research carried out in this laboratory is devoted to
understanding some basic biological mechanisms in yeast and
plants using biochemistry, molecular and cellular biology
tools.
A major research programme concerns the study of the membrane
proteins involved in transporting various molecules across
the plasma membrane (proton pumps-ATPases, drug transporters,
aquaporins). The fate of transporters and other proteins
by selective proteolysis (ubiquitin-proteosome system) is
also studied. Iron homeostasis in yeast is studied in relation
to Friedreisch ataxia. This laboratory also develops integrated
genomic projects. These research topics
are briefly detailed here.
