Funded Activity Summary

Stringent control of gene expression ensures the harmonious life of all human cells. Loss of this control leads to development of a chaotic genome, characteristic of diseased states such as cancer. In this proposal, we aim at capturing and understanding the first key steps of the mechanism that, if dysfunctional, leads to aberrant gene expression. We will use cutting-edge structural bio-imaging to answer questions of fundamental importance to human health and pathologies.
