Project title:
Specific modulation of Ras-MAPK signalling by a mRNA-binding complex

Funding period:  
2009-2012

Program:
CRS/Gerald D. Price Fellowship

Summary:
Using high-throughput genomics and proteomics methods to characterize the links between the proteins involved in the maturation of mRNA and Ras-MAPK regulation to reveal unsuspected modulators of the Ras-MAPK cascade and eventually design novel anti-cancer therapeutics.
