Señalización y proteómica de ubiquitina y similares

After obtaining an EMERGIA 2020 grant from the Andalusian Regional Government and being selected in the Ramon y Cajal 2020 program from the Spanish Ministry of Science I have recently joined CABIMER as an Emerging PI and visiting Scientist.

Since May 2018, I am a Senior Researcher and independent Junior PI in the Cell and Chemical Biology Department at the Leiden University Medical Center (LUMC), The Netherlands, after obtaining a Young Investigator Grant from the Dutch Cancer ociety (€k548). This grant enabled me to lead the “Genome (Ubiquitin-like) proteomics” group and hire my first PhD Student.

In my group, we are specialized in the identification and characterization of ubiquitination substrates in a ubiquitin ligase-specific manner employing our own developed TULIP2 methodology (Salas-lloret et al. 2019).

Previously, from February 2013 to May 2018 I was a postdoc in Alfred Vertegaal’s group at the LUMC, studying the role of the Small Ubiquitin-Like Modifier (SUMO) in DNA repair and Cancer progression. I published four first author publication and was allowed to lead my DNA repair-related projects, which is reflected in two corresponding author publications (Gonzalez-Prieto et al. 2015a, Gonzalez-Prieto et al. 2015b, Kumar,Gonzalez-Prieto et al. 2017, Gonzalez-Prieto et al 2021). Furthermore, I participated in several collaborative projects.

I did my PhD in Felix Prado’s group at CABIMER/CSIC, Seville, Spain. studying the role of the Homologous Recombination machinery during DNA replication and its control by cell cycle, which was published in EMBO Journal (Gonzalez-Prieto et al. 2013).

Previous to my PhD, I worked in the Gañan-Calvo group at the School of Engineering, University of Seville, Spain. My project aimed to develop biomedical application to their developed technology, Flow Focusing, I discovered a new microfluidic phenomenon, which was published in Nature Physics (Gañan-Calvo et al. 2007).
