Healthy aging and longevity are a growing topic of interest. They depend on the complex interplay between nuclear and mitochondrial DNA, the environment and the microbiota, that is, the whole set of bacteria living in the different parts of our body with their whole set of genes. Understanding this complex nature versus nurture balance is one of the greatest challenges in human genetics a…
This project has as general objectives the collection, analysis, and investigation of molecular data from three microbiomes found in the Zoological Park of São Paulo state. These microbiomes are: Atlantic Rain Forest vegetation compost, water from a lake, and stool sample from Alouatta monkeys. The choice of microbiomes seeks to cover to some extent the environmental diversity found in th…
The goal of this project is to generate Hidden Markov Models for microbial protein families that have relevance inbioenergy. These models will allow the automated propagation of manual annotations of the genes that code for theseproteins. This project is associated with another project being carried out in the USA, which has as objectives thecreation of new Gene Ontology (GO) terms for fu…
Angiogenesis is the process which new blood vessels form from pre-existing vessels. Many diseases are dependent of neovascularization to growth in the organism, like Cancer and retinopathies. These diseases are known as angiogenesis-dependent diseases. The formation of blood vessels in a adult organism occur under delicate control of gene expression, and dysregulation of this process coul…
Angiogenesis is the creation of new blood vessels from pre-existing ones. It occurs naturally in physiological and pathological process, such as retinopathies and cancer. Through RNA sequencing (RNA-Seq), it is possible to study these differences between tissues at cell level in the moment of sequencing. RNA-seq data enables the identification and quantification of gene expression of the …
Many beneficial and pathogenic rhizobacteria are both well described and characterized in literature. We know who they are and what they do. However, we don't know why and how they evolve pathogenic or beneficial traits. Viruses infecting bacteria (phages) modulate host niche adaptation. Genomic evidences demonstrate that prophages contribute to the evolution of virulence. Most of the t…
The microbial mass present in the human species is ten times greater than that of human cells. We know now that this metagenome influences us greatly, playing a role in our metabolism, tissue development, inflammation and immunity. Certain body habitats suffer greater exposure to the outside world than others, increasing the importance of the human microbiome on such body sites. Studying …

Phages, the viruses of bacteria, are capable of establishing either antagonistic or mutualistic interactions with their hosts. Evidence so far clearly demonstrates the importance of phages for microbiome functioning. However little is known about how phage-bacteria interactions at the community-level respond to environmental changes. Environmental disturbances can change microbial communi…
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third most common cancer in the world, affecting more than 1.3 million people every year. CRCs can be divided into sporadic, inflammatory and hereditary forms. Genetics can, however, explain only a small proportion of disease variance. Using 16S rRNA amplicon sequencing, several bacterial species have been implicated in the development of CRC, but high-resol…
Phages studies have been experiencing a resurgence of scientific interest due to recent evidences that show their importance in microbial ecology, carbon and other nutrients cycling and potential applications as anti-bacterial therapeutics in clinical, agricultural and food processing fields. They are also theorized as Nature reservoirs of genetic diversity, being responsible for new gene…
