Funded Activity Summary

This project is to understand how proteins in the cell detect the presence of invading viruses, and pass on the message for the cell to produce defence molecules. The overproduction of these defence molecules can lead to inflammatory diseases. This research will help us to understand the process of the innate immune response in cells and how we might control it in disease states.
