    Collapse Overview 
    Collapse overview
    My main research interest is to understand the “RNP Code”, that is, the composition and function of RNA-binding proteins bound to RNAs, both coding and noncoding. I have contributed to efforts to characterize the assembly, composition, and function of ribonucleoprotein (RNP) particles, the influence of long noncoding (lnc)RNAs in translation and ubiquitin-mediated proteolysis, and the mechanisms that determine lncRNA abundance in the cell. I am interested in elucidating the rules that govern the assembly of RBPs into RNA-containing functional complexes, the influence of signaling events that regulate RNPs, and the impact of specific RBPs and RNAs on RNP activity and ensuing gene regulation. I am particularly interested in studying the consequences of RNPs on cellular events such as proliferation, survival, senescence, aging, and age-associated human diseases such as cancer. In my laboratory, I will strive to understand the role of RNPs in human physiology and in disease processes.

    PMC Citations indicate the number of times the publication was cited by articles in PubMed Central, and the Altmetric score represents citations in news articles and social media. (Note that publications are often cited in additional ways that are not shown here.) Fields are based on how the National Library of Medicine (NLM) classifies the publication's journal and might not represent the specific topic of the publication. Translation tags are based on the publication type and the MeSH terms NLM assigns to the publication. Some publications (especially newer ones and publications not in PubMed) might not yet be assigned Field or Translation tags.) Click a Field or Translation tag to filter the publications.
