As Z-DNA binding protein 1 (ZBP1) has emerged as a promising target for simultaneously targeting infectious and inflammatory diseases, UNIST has been consecutively selected for national research and development projects to accelerate the de... Read More
Abstract The molecular mechanisms underlying metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) remain largely unclear; however, emerging evidence suggests that microRNAs (miRNAs) play a critical role in modulating transcripti... Read More
Abstract Proteins, inherently biocompatible and biodegradable, face a challenge in forming stable hydrogels without external chemical crosslinkers. Here, we construct a ring-shaped trimeric SpyTag-fused Proliferating Cell Nuclear Antigen Pr... Read More
Abstract In most murine species, spermatozoa exhibit a falciform apical hook at the head end. The function of the sperm hook is not yet clearly understood. In this study, we investigate the role of the sperm hook in the migration of spermat... Read More
UNIST biomedical engineering researchers are fostering global collaborative research with world-class research institutes. The Ministry of Science and ICT (MSIT) has recently selected two faculty members at UNIST for the project aimed at de... Read More
Abstract Chronic myeloid leukemia (CML), caused by BCR::ABL1 fusion gene, is known to regulate disease progression by altering the expression of genes. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying these changes are largely unknown. In this... Read More
