Funded Activity Summary

Function of a new splicing factor, RBM4. New genomic knowledge is revolutionizing our world. However our understanding of the basic mechanisms of RNA maturation, especially regulation of splicing lags significantly behind our understanding of related genomic processes. This project is a genetic approach to help elucidate the function of new splicing factors and characterize the way in which specific RNA sequences are recognized. It should promote the better understanding of regulatory events involved in controlling gene expression during development and differentiation. Results from this project will also provide new insights into the 'multifunctionality' of cellular proteins and will illustrate the importance of RNA studies in molecular medicine.
