Funded Activity Summary

Function and regulation of the Schlafen gene family: novel regulators of blood cell proliferation and function. The immediate outcomes of the proposed research will be in fundamental knowledge and understanding of important cellular and biological processes in which the Schlafen genes are involved. In particular, Schlafen genes are likely to play a role in inflammatory responses and in blood cell growth. These process clearly have relevance to a range of major human (and animal) diseases including infectious disease, auto-immune disease and leukaemia, and thus a long-term outcome may be improved treatments for such disease.
