-''C. crescentus'' é um modelo no que se refere a estudos de ciclo celular em procariontes. Pouco se sabe, no entanto, a respeito de seus mecanismos de reparo de DNA. Em seu genoma já seqüenciado, vários genes foram anotados com funções relacionadas à integridade do material genético, mas poucas análises funcionais foram realizadas. Nosso objetivo é, portanto, trazer mais informações a respeito dos mecanismos de reparo de DNA nesse organismo. Buscamos também a análise das implicações de prejuízos ao DNA para o ciclo celular singular dessa proteobactéria.+''C. crescentus'' is a model organism for cell cycle studies in prokaryotes.

Graduated in Biological Sciences in Universidade de São Paulo – USP in 2005. Currently she is doing her PhD. program in the DNA repair Lab. Research area: DNA repair and relationships between genetic material integrity and cell cycle in Caulobacter crescentus.

Resumo do Projeto

C. crescentus is a model organism for cell cycle studies in prokaryotes. Its DNA repair mechanisms are, however, less studied and understood. C. crescentus genome has already been sequenced and several genes have been annotated as putative members of the genetic material integrity maintenance system. Even though, only few functional studies have been done. Therefore our objective is to bring more information about the DNA repair mechanisms in this organism. We also objective to analyze the implications of DNA damage to the singular cell cycle of this proteobacteria.
