Master of Sciences in Toxicology and Bachelor's at Pharmacy-Biochemistry from School of Pharmaceutical Sciences of Ribeirão Preto - USP. She was undergraduate student at the Laboratory of Animal Toxins at this same universitywith research projects related to isolation and characterization of snake venom toxins. She has experience in Toxinology; isolation of proteinaceous compounds; structural, biochemical and functional characterization of animal toxins as well as mass spectrometry focused in protein analysis and their post-translational modifications. Currentyl, my research project is related to heterologous expression of snake toxin, focusing on its chaacterization (structural, biochemmical and function) and biotechnological application.

Snake envenoming is a public health problem in many countries. In Brazil, more than 170 thousand cases have been recorded, being the majority due to snakebites from Bothrops genus. However, the Crotalus genus is the most lethal one. Snakes from this genus are popularly known as rattlesnakes, and there is only one species (Crotalus durissus) in the Brazilian territory. The C. durissus is …
Snakebites represent a serious public health problem in tropical countries. In Brazil, the vast majority of reported accidents are caused by Viperidae family and genus Crotalus is responsible for the higher mortality of the accidents. Snake venoms are complex mixtures of proteins, peptides and organic compounds that affect a huge variety of biological process. L-amino acid oxidase (LAAO) …
Ophidian accidents are considered a serious public health problem in tropical countries and snake venoms from Crotalus genus is the most lethal one in Brazil. Among this genus, Crotalus durissus terrificus is the most abundant subspecies. Venom is the result of an evolutionary process of some snakes and presents multiple functions including immobilization, death and digestion of the prey.…
