轉錄及表觀遺傳調控發育及疾病之機制

基因轉錄結合表觀遺傳決定細胞命運。表觀遺傳泛指一種生物機制，能夠在不改變DNA序列(genotype)的前提之下，改變基因表達及細胞表現型態(phenotype)。真核細胞的DNA，與其所纏繞的組蛋白，及其他相關蛋白，總稱為染色質。染色質調控蛋白必須修飾組蛋白或DNA，使染色質結構鬆散或緊密，DNA始能複製、轉錄或修復。染色質調控蛋白是調控表觀遺傳最重要的因子。阮麗蓉實驗室著重於探討人類細胞中染色質調控系統蛋白的功能，其於癌變過程，早期發育，以及腦部疾病所扮演的角色。本實驗室近年研究指出，與人類發育遲緩智能不足相關的蛋白質N端乙醯酶Naa10p為胚胎DNA甲基化、基因印記及胚胎發育所需。Naa10p過量表達可導致癌症及肥胖。目前研究重點有三：ㄧ、Naa10p於腦神經功能及病變之角色，二、組蛋白N端加上乙醯基調控發育及疾病之機制，三、表觀遺傳如何調控成體神經幹細胞老化。我們期待藉這些研究發展新型藥物，治療人類疾病。
