DNA viruses and tumor cells sabotage such controls to drive their respective pathological propagation, albeit with one small difference: In tumor cells the key cellular players are targeted via mutations, while in infected cells viral proteins achieve the same end. Not surprisingly, many of the cellular targets are the same. Dr. O'Shea's lab is exploiting this overlap to help address three key questions: What are the critical cellular targets and pathways that drive deregulated growth? What is the human growth deregulation...
