Defining a redox-dependent pre-apoptotic nuclear condensation in KRAS mutant cancer cells

Project: FDCRGP

Project Details

Grant Program

Faculty-development competitive research grants program for 2023-2025

Project Description

Nuclear condensation is a hallmark of apoptotic cell death. Chromatin packing precedes nuclear condensation. The mechanism of a redox-dependent nuclear condensation is a main focus of the proposal.
