Summary
Estrogen-mediated regulation of gene expression via transcriptional and translational control: complementary, synergistic or opposing responses? Hormones dictate cellular behaviour by activating pre-programmed responses. The sex hormone estrogen affects cell fate by regulating the gene expression, but it is unknown to which extent this response occurs via activation of genes or control of already transcribed gene. The project will investigate how the cell integrates the complex estrogen signals.
