We are studying protein complexes that acetylate lysine residues of chromatinal core histones. Our long term goal is to determine how these complexes regulate cell cycle in regenerating normal tissues, as well as in diseases with abnormal cell proliferation, including cancer. We are looking for enthusiastic undergraduate who will perform immunological methods of protein detection in tissues of mammalian origins.
