| Research Abstract |
Nuclear pore complexes are embedded in the nuclear envelope and act as molecular sieves, selectively facilitating the transport of proteins and RNA in and out of the nucleus. Recently, we showed that NUP98 binding partner, RAE1 involved in the development of NUP98-HOXA9 leukemogenesis. We want to investigate epigenetic mechanism in carcinogenesis through a novel approach of nucleoporins-histone modifiers orchestration. We also plan to compare the difference between the difference of NUP98 fusions, HOX genes (NUP98-HOXA9) and those fusions with PHD domain (NUP98-JARID1A). Through this grant support, we have generated NUP98-JARID1A mice. We are still investigating the NUP98-JARID1A and the leukemogenesis via this mice. Meanwhile, we also published several related NPC papers and presented some of our data in the international and domestic conferences.
