Chromosome Function and Regulation Laboratory
Chromosomes play a central role in the faithful inheritance of genomes during cell proliferation and progeny formation. However, for some reason, some flexibility is inevitable in the structure and organization of the chromosomes. That flexibility results in the alteration of chromosome structures; this can drive both cancer formation and biological evolution. However, little is known about the regulation of the flexibility and alteration of chromosomes. Our research interest is the elucidation of molecular mechanisms. |
