Date du début: 1 janv. 2017, Date de fin: 31 déc. 2021,

Histone proteins provide a dynamic packaging system for the eukaryotic genome. Chromatin integrates a multitude of signals to control gene expression, only some of which have the propensity to be maintained through replication and cell division. For our understanding of cellular memory and epigenetic inheritance we need to know what features characterize a stable, heritable chromatin state through ...

Restoration of tumor suppressor function by induction of translational read-through of premature termination codons - a strategy for improved cancer therapy (TRANSREAD)

Date du début: 1 sept. 2016, Date de fin: 31 août 2021,

Tumor suppressor genes such as TP53, RB1, PTEN and APC are frequently inactivated in sporadic and inherited human tumors. A significant fraction of the mutations in these genes are nonsense mutations that lead to premature termination of translation and expression of truncated unstable and non-functional proteins. We will identify and characterize novel molecules that can induce translational read ...

Reversing the epigenetic state of oligodendrocyte precursors cells in multiple sclerosis (EPIScOPE)

Date du début: 1 sept. 2016, Date de fin: 31 août 2021,

Oligodendrocytes (OL) are glial cells that mediate myelination of neurons, a process that is defective in multiple sclerosis (MS). Although OL precursor cells (OPCs) can initially promote remyelination in MS, this regenerative mechanism eventually fails in progressive MS. OPCs go through several epigenetic states that ultimately define their potential to differentiate and myelinate. OPCs in progre ...
