Studies on Histone Acetyltransferase Targeting, Activity and Specificity
EF 2012-13
Résumé
We will study members of a family of proteins that are required for the maintenance of normal structure and function of our chromosomes. Chromosomes are the packaged forms of our genetic material, and must be maintained properly for the proper storage and repair of damaged DNA, and transmission of genetic information to future generations. We will study a group of enzymes called histone acetyl transferases that are essential for the maintenance of our DNA in chromosomes and also for the regulated decoding of our genetic information into proteins.
