Long Non-Coding RNAs Transcribed From Prader-Willi syndrome Locus: Key Regulators of Gene Expression (Year 2)
Funded Year: 2021Preliminary research done by Dr. Grzechnik has shown that “long non-coding RNAs”, (lncRNAs) from PWS-region genes may act as important regulators in neurodevelopment. In this project, Dr. Grzechnik will study the changes that occur when the PWS lncRNAs are depleted during the early, middle and late stages of neuronal development.
