General Objective: Implement transcriptomic analysis as a tool to accelerate the discovery of anticancer and anti-T peptides. cruzi.
Specific objectives:
- Standardize transcriptomic analysis of A. spurrelli skin using Illumina and Nanopore sequencing.
- Characterize the primary sequence of A. spurrelli skin peptides by cloning, transcriptomics and proteomics.
- Determine the activity against cancer cells and T. cruzi of two synthetic peptides from A. spurrel
