Funded Activity Summary

Regulation of B cell differentiation, which occurs when our body responds to antigen infection is tightly controlled by a gene regulatory network. This project will be the first study to reconstruct a regulatory network for this process by using genome-wide expression and transcription factor binding data. The research finding from this study will elucidate the molecular mechanisms regulating this process and will shed new light on how this network is altered in lymphoma and myeloma.
