Funded Activity Summary

Most of our cells are not dividing, but persist in a stable arrested state, yet little is known of the molecular mechanisms that regulate and maintain permanent arrest, or that go wrong when cells start proliferating and turn into cancers. This proposal addresses an area of fundamental, basic biology, that has been largely overlooked. A better understanding of the molecules that regulate cell stability might provide new drug targets so that tumour cell proliferation can be stopped.
