The UV research groups (GIUV) are regulated in the 1st chapter of the Regulation ACGUV48/2013, which explains the procedure for creating new research structures. They are basic research and organizational structures that result from the voluntary association of researchers that share objectives, facilities, resources and common lines of research. These researchers are also committed to the consolidation and stability of their activity, work in groups and the capability to achieve a sustainable funding.
The research groups included in the previously mentioned Regulation are registered in the Register of Research Structures of the Universitat de València (REIUV), managed by the Office of the Vice-principal for Research. The basic information of these organisms can be found in this website.

Reference of the Group:
Description of research activity: Our group works on different aspects of protein trafficking in plant cells, with special emphasis on functional studies. On the one hand, we try to elucidate the function of a group of proteins (of the p24 family) probably essential in the quality control of protein trafficking in the secretory pathway and in the organisation of the compartments of the early secretory pathway, including the Golgi complex biogenesis. On the other hand, we are interested in investigating the molecular basis of the polar localisation of the auxin transporter PIN1, which determines the polar transport of auxins and is essential for plant growth and development, defining its global polarity.
