My lab
I am interested in small non-coding RNA in eukaryotes, focusing on miRNA. miRNAs have key roles in the regulation of distinct processes in eukaryotes. They provide a key and powerful tool in gene regulation and thus a potential novel class of therapeutic targets. miRNAs play an evolutionarily conserved developmental role and diverse physiological functions in plants and mammals.
Overview of My Research
Biogenesis of plant miRNA
Potential of miRNA in therapeutic application
Interaction of miRNA with Transcription Factor (other gene regulator)
