LIM-homeodomain interactions in neuronal development. The loss of central nervous system function, through accident or disease, is devastating for affected individuals and their families. Our current inability to stimulate the regeneration of nervous tissue is a result of the lack of detailed knowledge of the complex processes that must take place, at the molecular and cellular levels, during neuronal development.

The loss of central nervous system function, through accident or disease, is devastating for affected individuals and their families. Our current inability to stimulate the regeneration of nervous tissue is a result of the lack of detailed knowledge of the complex processes that must take place, at the molecular and cellular levels, during neuronal development. We are determining how a group of cellular proteins that have key roles in motor neuron development interact with each other and with DNA. With this information we are developing reagents that can be used to further probe central nervous system function and may ultimately be used to regenerate damaged nerves.Read moreRead less
