Assessing the evolutionary safety of mutagenic antiviral drugs in the context of recombination
The COVID-19 pandemic highlighted critical gaps in our antiviral arsenal, with many families of viruses lacking targeted inhibitors. Read more
(BBSRC NWD) mRNA epigenetics: Characterization of novel layer of gene regulation for essential brain functions
For over 40 years we know about modified nucleotides in mRNA, but the emerging field of epitranscriptomics is still in its infancy in developing methods for accurate global detection of mRNA modifications. Read more
Molecular profiling of altered cell states in renal ciliopathies
Research Group:
MRC Human Genetics Unit
This project is part of Cilia-AI (European Training Programme for Deconvolution of Multi-scale Cilia Function in Health and Disease by Integrating Machine Learning-AI Approaches. Read more
Drug repurposing in HNRNP-related disorders: towards developing novel therapies.
Rare diseases affect over 3.5 million people in the UK and recent medical advances have provided the means to generate potential treatments for several rare diseases that have been studied to-date but have no treatment. Read more
Plantarflexors (calf muscles): how much do they impact sarcopenia and aging?
The Leicester Lifestyle and Health Research Group (LLHRG). Read more
Investigation of the molecular mechanisms underlying antibody-stimulated INSR signaling bias and potential implications for understanding processes linking insulin resistance and development of atherosclerosis
One focus of the Brierley lab is the investigation of the potential utility of agonistic INSR antibodies as a therapy for severe insulin resistance caused by INSR mutations. Read more
