Project: MARCH-I dependent ubiquitination in innate and adaptive immunity: from characterization to manipulation.
About
CNRS – University of Melbourne Graduate Research Projects
The project investigates the molecular interplay between the E3-ubiquitin ligase MARCH1 and its partners in antigen-presenting cells, aiming to modulate immune responses for cancer immunotherapy and anti-inflammatory treatments. Using CRISPR/Cas9, high-resolution microscopy, “omics” technologies, and novel Protac/antibody strategies, we will dissect their regulation, trafficking, and functional impact on immunomodulation.
Co supervision with Pr. Justine Mintern , Bio21 Molecular Science and Biotechnology Institute, University of Melbourne, Australia.
