Research Interest
Ribosomal RNAs (rRNAs) are the catalytic and structural components of a functional ribosome. The rate of rRNA synthesis determines the growth and proliferative capacities of a cell. Controlled rRNA production is fundamental for cell survival and homeostasis; however, deranged rRNA synthesis causes catastrophic effects on normal cellular physiology. Elevated rRNA synthesis is tightly linked to cancer aetiology and hypertrophy related diseases.
