IrsiCaixa, Hospital Universitari Germans Trias i Pujol, Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona (UAB), 08916 Badalona, Spain
Interests: My research interests are focused in understanding the molecular mechanisms implicated in human viruses pathogenesis. In the last two decades, I have being studying how the genetic variability of HIV-1 and HCV has influenced virus pathogenesis, immunogenicity and response to antiviral therapy. Recently, I have explored how synonymous codon mutations impact HIV-1 protein expression and virus replication capacity. Codon or codon pair biases and HIV-1 RNA dinucleotide frequencies (e.g., CpG/UpA) affect host innate response, virus latency and pathogenesis (reviewed in Jordan-Paiz, Franco and Martinez, Frontiers in Microbiology 2021; Martinez et al Nucleic Acids Research 2019; Martinez et al Trends in Microbiology 2016).
