Project description
Enhancing understanding of transcription regulation in enhanceropathies
Transcription is a key step in gene expression whereby the code carried by the DNA is copied to a single strand of RNA that is then used as a template to assemble the protein. Transcription regulation is the most common form of gene control and enhancers are rapidly becoming a key therapeutic target. Enhancers are regulatory DNA sequences that enhance gene transcription by binding to specific proteins called transcription factors. Disruption of their function is associated with numerous diseases, now broadly termed enhanceropathies, yet their mechanisms of action are largely unknown. ENHPATHY is training researchers in the multidisciplinary techniques required to elucidate mechanisms. Partnering with private companies will move discoveries from the bench to the bedside.
