Brief description Interferons (IFNs) are a family of proteins with critical roles in infectious and inflammatory diseases and cancers. Currently we do not understand why there are so many type I IFNs, their different functions and how they are achieved. This project will determine at a fine molecular level how different IFNs interact with molecules on target cells and transmit particular signals. We will focus on a novel IFNε that we discovered. These studies will underpin the development of new therapies.
