Ultra-low input ribosome profiling for characterizing translation in development, cancer and immunology
A fundamental goal of molecular biology is to characterize the dynamics of gene expression from individual cells. This knowledge will ultimately reveal the diversity of cell types that make ...
Characterize translation machinery alterations in thousands of tumors of diverse origins
Recurrent cancer mutations that disrupt protein-coding regions have been identified through large-scale projects employing targeted sequencing strategies such as whole exome sequencing. While ...
Develop a platform for discovery of trans-acting translation regulators
Regulatory proteins control translation by scaling global protein production and by modulating translation from specific mRNAs. Targeted approaches continue to reveal new translation regulator...
Determine cis-regulatory translation control elements in the human genome
Advances in sequencing have greatly accelerated our ability to catalog human genetic diversity, yet the functional consequences of these genomic differences are still poorly understood. Geneti...
