Function of sulfotransferase SULT4A1 - transcriptional and post-transcriptional regulation

我们对蛋白质的重要作用的理解对于设计疾病治疗的现代方法至关重要。该项目专门研究与精神分裂症相关的蛋白质硫转移酶4A1，并可能涉及其他神经疾病。该计划旨在描述这种蛋白质的功能，以及异常调控可能带来的影响。通过一系列复杂的实验，蛋白质的分子和细胞特性将被更清楚地定义。

Our understanding of how important proteins work is critical to devising modern approaches for disease treatment. This project looks specifically at a protein sulfotransferase 4A1 linked with schizophrenia, and may be involved in other neuronal disorders. The plan is to characterise how the protein functions and what might be the implications of abnormal regulation. Through a series of intricate experiments, the molecular and cellular properties of the protein will be more clearly defined.
