Funded Activity Summary

Molecular characterization of the role of menin in embryonic development. Menin is a protein that is necessary to prevent development of tumours. Deletion of menin in mice causes embryonic death. We think this is because menin is necessary in the placenta. This project will examine the role of menin in the fetus and the placenta, and provide information about how normal pregnancy and fetal growth is controlled.
