Brief description We are studying the function and biology of a novel gene that looks like a generegulator. We generated a zebrafish mutant with defective myeloid development, and we found this gene causes the defect. This mutant fish provides a handle on the biological function of the gene in development. This gene has the hallmarks of a transcription factor and we will study how it regulates other genes, and how it may be a target for treatment of several cancers in which expression of this gene is activated.
