NIH grant awarded to University of Utah for research on miRNA decay mechanisms affecting hematopoietic development, aiming to understand and restore blood development in patients with mutant USB1.
Description
Research project to understand molecular mechanisms leading to hematopoietic failure due to altered miRNA processing and to find mechanisms to restore blood development in patients with mutant USB1. The project uses molecular and cellular tools to study miRNA stability and function in blood cells.
