European Transcriptome, Regulome and Cellular Commitment Consortium (EuTRACC)

Grunddaten zu diesem Projekt

Beschreibung

The EuTRACC consortium proposes to determine the regulation of the genome by mapping the regulatory pathways and networks of transcription factors that control cellular functions. EuTRACC will be part of and work in close collaboration with the International Regulome Consortium (IRC), an worldwide network that will address the regulation of genome function at a higher level by mapping the genetic regulatory nodes and networks that control the activity of embryonic stem cells and the process of differentiation to specific cell types. This Integrated Project will focus on mapping the genetic circuitry that controls the formation of neural tissues and the blood system. The project will utilize genetics, proteomics and genomics tools in the mouse, zebrafish and xenopus model organisms.
