Funded Activity Summary
Mechanism and function of cell asymmetry during cell death. This project aims to investigate how dying cells rearrange their cellular contents to aid their removal. More than 200 billions cells die daily in the human body. It is critical that dying cells are rapidly cleared as their buildup can interfere with normal tissue functions. This project will use a suite of contemporary molecular/cell biological approaches to study a newly identified process that occurs during cell death. Expected outcomes include a paradigm-shift in understanding the process of cell clearance. This project is expected to generate fundamental new knowledge of the mechanisms by which dying cells are efficiently removed from tissues. This should provide significant benefits to the cell death and general cell biology fields.Funded Activity Details
