Host-Pathogen
interaction during Infection
The emergence of drug resistant
strains of tuberculosis has contributed to the fact that Mycobacterium
tuberculosis remains one of the most successful pathogens.
Research has been initiated in the
area of host –pathogen interaction using cell biology and recombinant DNA
based approaches. The main focus is on identifying multifunctional
housekeeping enzymes of the host and pathogen that could be essential in the
process of infection and survival of intracellular M.tuberculosis. In
addition, a screening assay for anti-mycobacterials is also being developed.
Other areas of interest are Iron metabolism and
Immune signalling |
