Apoptosis Projects

"Our research focuses on how cancer cells bypass apoptosis and survive and propagate inappropriately."

  • IAPs – The last line of defence against caspase-mediated damage
    Investigating the molecular mechanism through which IAPs block caspases
  • Setting up the anti-apoptotoic threshold
    Elucidating how the protein levels of IAPs is regulated.
  • IAP antagonists – Overcoming the anti-apoptotic roadblock
    Investigating IAP-binding proteins to identify novel IAP-regulatory proteins.
  • Ubiquitylation in apoptosis
    Studying the mechanism of IAP-mediated signalling.
  • Caspase-independent function of IAPs
    Linking microbial infections to chronic inflammation and cancer.
