Brief description All cells in our body sense and respond to stressful changes in our environment. We are focused on enzymes called JNKs that relay this information, and so form part of the key response pathways. JNKs are now being evaluated as new drug targets for the treatment of diseases including diabetes and stroke, but we know very little about how JNKs work in stressed cells. We will define new partners for the JNKs and in so doing reveal new information on the stress-activated events they regulate.
