ARC Centre for Structural & Functional Microbial Genomics

澳大利亚第一产业将受益于微生物遗传学、生物信息学和蛋白质结构与功能方面的专家团队，他们将对微生物基因组学和表型组学进行综合研究，重点关注基本生物过程和宿主/病原体相互作用。全基因组表达和蛋白质谱将用于描述在受感染宿主中表达改变的基因，并分析参与控制关键细胞过程的基因。该中心还将确定关键分子的形状及其相互作用。实际成果将包括新的兽医疫苗和鉴定新的抗微生物靶点。

Australian Primary Industry will benefit from a team of experts in microbial genetics, bioinformatics and protein structure and function undertaking integrated studies on microbial genomics and phenomics that are focused on fundamental biological processes and host/pathogen interactions. Whole genome expression and protein profiling will be used to characterise genes whose expression is altered in the infected host and to analyse genes involved in the control of key cellular processes. The Centre will also determine the shapes of key molecules and their interactions. Practical outcomes will include new veterinary vaccines and the identification of novel antimicrobial targets.
