Research topics
Giorgio Gribaudo is a Molecular Virologist and Head of the Laboratory of Microbiology and Virology (LMV) at the Department of Life Sciences and systems Biology.
His main fields of research of interest are:
- Cell and Molecular Biology of Herpesviruses-Host Interactions;
- Identification and development of novel broad spectrum antiviral agents.
Experimental models currently employed in the laboratory include: Human and Murine Cytomegaloviruses (HCMV, MCMV), Herpes simplex 1 and 2 (HSV-1, HSV-2), Influenza A and B viruses, Respiratory Syncitial Virus (RSV), human coronaviruses hCOV-OC43 and hCoV-229E.
Major topics and current projects:
- Structure and functions of HCMV-encoded Ca2+-conducting viroporins
- Structure and functions of HCMV proteins that regulate virus cell tropism
- Structure and functions of HCMV-encoded transcription factors
- Virus-host cell interactions in HCMV and HSV models
- Mechanisms of herpesviral-induced dysregulation of host cell gene expression
- Mechanism of herpesvirus-mediated evasion of intrinsic and innate immunity
- Discovery and development of new host-targeting antiviral (HTA) molecules against human respiratory viruses
- Discovery and development of new direct-acting antiviral (DAA) agents against human respiratory viruses
