Our mission:
Development of fundamental new protein/peptide-based antifungal strategies
not just for the medical treatment, but also for the pest control and food preservation to
improve human welfare.
Main research areas:
- Isolation and purification of antifungal proteins from filamentous fungi and
plants
- Investigating the antifungal efficacy and the mode of action of antifungal
proteins
and their de novo designed peptide derivatives
- Investigating the biological role of antifungal proteins in the producer
organism
- Development of expression systems for bulk production of antifungal proteins
- Investigating the potential application of antifungal proteins in the medicine
and agriculture
- Rational design of antifungal proteins and peptide derivatives
