Biological pathways supporting the formation and function of chromatin (Scholarship)

University of Liverpool Institute of Systems, Molecular and Integrative Biology

Every cell in our body contains the same DNA yet each cell expresses a different set of genes. These changes in gene expression are heavily influenced by histone proteins, their role in packaging DNA into chromatin and the “epigenetic” information they carry. Read more

Nuclear and transcriptional dysregulations during cellular senescence

University of Leicester Molecular and Cell Biology

Cellular senescence, which is characterised by a proliferation arrest, is a driver of ageing (1). Several stresses can induce cellular senescence, including persistent DNA damage, telomere dysfunction, and oncogene activation. Read more

Supervisors: Dr MT Tellier, Dr Y Markaki

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

Molecular mechanism of vimentin induced epithelial mesenchymal transition (EMT) and stemness in cancer cells

Queen Mary University of London Institute of Dentistry

Background. Most cancers are epithelial in origin and arise from a single progenitor cell, similar to an embryo, to become a clone of cells. Read more

Possible role of mutant vimentin in cancer progression and metastasis

Queen Mary University of London Institute of Dentistry

Background. This project will investigate the role of the cytoskeletal protein vimentin in cancer progression and metastasis using cell and molecular biology approaches. Read more
