Evaluating the impact of genotoxic aldehyde stress in premature ageing

University of Leicester Department of Chemistry
Aldehydes are highly reactive chemicals that are common pollutants and human metabolites. However, the vast majority of aldehydes’ biological functions are unknown. Read more
 Supervisors: Dr R Hopkinson, Dr K Tanaka

Structural-guided PROTAC targeting of BMX to modulate apoptotic sensitivity in disease

University of Leicester Molecular and Cell Biology
What determines at the molecular level whether a cell lives or dies? Regulation of the cellular life–death switch is essential in healthy cells for normal foetal development and for the clearance of damaged cells. Read more
 Supervisors: Dr JF Fox, Dr JH Hodgkinson

Epigenetics of early human development: From molecular mechanisms to regenerative medicine

University of Leicester Molecular and Cell Biology
The 46th chromosome in XX female mammals, the second X, has to be switched off. That way females equalize gene dosage of X-linked genes with XY males. Read more

Cancer biology: identification of new treatment options for EML4-ALK driven lung cancer through understanding mechanisms of cell division and migration.

University of Leicester Molecular and Cell Biology
Lung cancer is the largest cause of cancer-related deaths in the UK and worldwide. While little progress has been made in long-term survival rates, we now have a good understanding of the genetic drivers raising the prospect of earlier diagnosis and more effective treatments. Read more

Structural and functional analysis of the protein complexes which regulate cell fate decisions to identify novel cancer therapies

University of Leicester Molecular and Cell Biology
Whether a cell dies or not has profound consequences on health and disease. In healthy tissue, cells that acquire high levels of genetic damage are safely removed via a process of programmed cell death. Read more

The Evolution of Vision in Mosquitoes

University of Leicester Department of Genetics and Genome Biology
Background . Due to their capacity to transmit viruses such as Zika and parasites like Plasmodium (the causative agent of malaria), mosquitos are regarded by the World Health Organization as one of the most lethal organisms on our planet (WHO | Global vector control response 2017–2030, 2020).

Understanding gene regulation by HDAC1 complexes in development and cancer

University of Leicester Molecular and Cell Biology
Packaging DNA into nucleosomes helps protect the long fragile genomes of eukaryotic species. However, in doing so it becomes an ever-present physical barrier to the machinery required for its replication, repair and transcription. Read more
