All cells have a proteasome system to degrade unwanted proteins. Proteasome dysfunction causes a build-up of proteins that triggers, through an unknown mechanism, activation of the immune system leading to inflammation. People with mutations in genes which code for proteasome activity experience a severe disease known as Proteasome-Associated Autoinflammatory Syndrome. We aim to elucidate the link between protein aggregation and immune activation and employ this knowledge in disease treatment.

所有细胞都有一个蛋白酶体系统来降解不需要的蛋白质。蛋白酶体功能障碍导致蛋白质积聚，通过未知机制触发免疫系统激活，导致炎症。编码蛋白酶体活性的基因突变的人会经历一种称为蛋白酶体相关自身炎症综合征的严重疾病。我们的目标是阐明蛋白质聚集和免疫激活之间的联系，并利用这一知识在疾病治疗。
