Genes and mechanisms governing cell phenotype

I am studying gene expression in clones of neural cells that express different levels of the transcription repressor REST/NRSF and are therefore differently competent for a variety of functions: neurosecretion, proliferation, migration etc.

Keywords: Membrane traffic / regulated exocytosis / nerve cell differentiation / gene expression / transmembrane signaling

Subject area(s): Differentiation & Death | Membranes & Transport | Neuroscience
