Research Description:
My lab is focused on understanding the mechanism that the cell uses to maintain genomic stability, with an emphasis on DNA damage checkpoints. Components of these checkpoints effectively monitor the status of the genome, sensing the presence of DNA damage and coordinating a range of possible responses, including DNA repair, apoptosis, arrest of cell cycle progression, and maintenance of replication fork stability. Loss of this checkpoint response is a hallmark of cancer cells and is one of the early steps in the development of cancer.
We are studying the DNA damage response using both cell-free extracts derived from the eggs of the frog Xenopus laevis as well as cultured mammalian cells. We are using these systems and a range of multidisciplinary techniques to understand how the checkpoint is activated following DNA damage and how this pathway is integrated with the processes of DNA replication, cell cycle progression and DNA repair.
Specific areas of current interest are:
• Checkpoint Activation.
• Checkpoint Signaling .
• Chemical Modulation of Checkpoint Pathways . |
