Characterization of SgK269, a master regulator of growth factor receptor signalling [ 2015 - 2017 ]

Research Grant

Researchers: Prof Roger Daly (Principal investigator)

Brief description Perturbed signaling within a cell can cause multiple diseases, including cancer. SgK269 is a scaffold protein involved in signaling and implicated in breast, colon and pancreatic cancer. By determining the signaling mechanism and function of the SgK269 scaffold, this work will provide novel and important insights into a key regulator of cell signaling, and reveal potential strategies for therapeutic targeting of the SgK269 scaffold that could be utilized in cancer treatment.
