Funded Activity Summary

Role of the PU.1 transcription factor in regulating lymphoid development. Haemopoiesis is a tightly regulated process and provides an important model for our understanding and application of stem cell biology. Perturbation of early haemopoiesis results in a number of important disorders including leukaemia, anaemia and immunodeficiency. The application of stem cells to many disease conditions is currently being pursued, however, in order to develop therapeutic interventions knowledge of normal cellular differentiation is crucial. The studies outlined here aim to contribute to the understanding of the these processes and hence help to provide the framework for future studies aimed at more directly altering cell fate decision for clinical applications.
