Major Research Activities

Targeting arginine methylation in cancer (breast, melanoma and leukemia) and defining its substrates.

 

The specific research areas in the laboratory include:

  • Defining the role of protein arginine methylation inhibitors in cancer immunotherapy.
  • The role of RNA helicases in regulating R-loops or DNA:RNA loops to prevent genomic instability.
  • The role of RNA binding proteins in neurological diseases.
