Professor KITAGAWA Masatoshi

Our research interests are primarily in the areas of cell cycle and cell fate regulation. Currently we are working on six projects:

1. Regulatory mechanisms of cell cycle and cell fate via ubiquitin system
2. Molecular mechanisms of DNA damage response and DNA replication
3. Regulatory mechanisms of cell growth/arrest signaling
4. Function of long non-coding RNAs
5. Molecular mechanisms of progression of nephropathy
6. Post translational modifications of tumor suppressor gene products
7. Molecular mechanisms of X chromosome inactivation
