6. Postdoctoral Position 

Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:

Epigenetic modifications comprise histone modifications, histone variants, nucleosome occupancy and DNA methylation and are crucial for organization of the genome into active chromatin (euchromatin) and repressed chromatin (heterochromatin). The functional organization of chromatin is important for regulation of transcription, cellular differentiation, and genome maintenance. The current focus of our studies is to understand the molecular mechanisms and biological role of LSH (Lymphoid Specific Helicase) that my group has discovered. LSH mutation in humans cause the ICF4 syndrome, a complex disease with immunodeficiency, centromeric instability and several organ deficiencies.
