Maradona Daouda-Agbanrin is a researcher in the Cellular and Molecular Microbiology working group at the Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences. His work focuses on understanding the assembly mechanisms of type III secretion systems (T3SS) in Salmonella, which are critical for the pathogen's ability to manipulate host cells during infection.
His research explores the coordination between inner and outer membrane components of the T3SS encoded on Salmonella pathogenicity island 1, with particular emphasis on identifying the stage at which secretion initiates and the needle structure assembles. This work has implications for developing anti-infective drugs targeting bacterial virulence mechanisms.
He employs techniques in bacterial genetics, molecular biology, membrane protein biochemistry, and protein-protein interaction analysis to advance these studies.
