- Epigenetic regulation of gene expression.
A partial list of
technical expertises that the Lab can offer to potential partners
in the fields of:
Chromatin
transcriptional layout at gene promoters of interest [CpG
methylation (Methylation-Specific Polymerase Chain Reaction - MSP,
Bisulfite Sequencing – BS)], [Global/local histone marks (western
blotting - WB, Chromatin ImmunoPrecipitation - ChIP)];
Expression of genes
of interest [mRNA level (RT-PCR, immunofluorence microscopy - IF),
protein level (western blotting - WB, immunofluorence microscopy -
IF, immunoassays - ELISA, enzymatic assays)];
Molecular cloning
and heterologous expression [Standard iGEM assembly and numerical
modeling of associated transcriptional/translational
program(s)].
