관심분야

전사인자와 coregulators (coactivators & corepressors)는 유전자 발현을 조절하는 핵심 조절자들로서 발생, 성장, 분화 등 정상 세포의 생리활성 유지뿐만 아니라 암 발생 및 진행에도 중요한 역할을 함. 본 연구실은 다양한 분자세포생물학 (molecular cell biology), 생화학 (biochemistry), 후성유전학 (epigenetics)적 방법을 사용하여 새로운 coregulators를 발굴 및 동정하고 암 발생과 진행에 관련된 그들의 작용 기전 및 임상적 의의를 크로마틴 구조변화 (chromatin remodeling), 단백질 변형 (post-translational modifications), 새로운 전사조절 coregulator pathway등 분자 수준에서 규명하는 것을 연구 목표로 삼고 있음. 이와 같은 연구는 유전자 발현조절에 대한 분자 기전의 이해뿐만 아니라 다양한 생물학적 현상 및 병태생리 기전을 이해하는데 필수적인 기초 지식을 제공하고 또한 질병치료를 위한 새로운 치료표적으로서 신약개발에 적극 활용되고 있음.
