The Graduiertenkolleg 1591 (GRK1591), a DFG-funded training program for doctoral students, seeks to reveal and characterize the nature and role of regulatory mechanisms directing gene expression at the posttranscriptional level. These involve the regulation of mRNA processing, turnover, translation and, in certain cases, directed transport of mRNAs to subcellular cytoplasmic compartments. Major known regulators of mRNA fate are RNA-binding proteins and non-coding RNAs such as microRNAs in higher eukaryotes and small noncoding RNAs in bacteria. A particularly important and rapidly evolving area of research explores the impact of posttranscriptional control mediated by RNA-binding proteins and non-coding RNAs on pathogenesis. The international meeting of the GRK1591 aims at providing a platform to discuss latest developments in the field of posttranscriptional gene regulation and how these impact the initiation and progression of disease on the molecular level.

You can combine search terms with and, or and/or not, e.g. Philo not logy.
You can use brackets to separate combinations from each other, e.g. (Philo not logy) or (Psycho and logy).
Coherent groups of words will be located as complete phrases if you put them into quotation marks, e.g. “Federal Republic of Germany”.
You can also use the advanced search without entering search terms. It will then follow the criteria you have selected (e.g. country or subject area).
If you have not selected any criteria in a given category, the entire category will be searched (e.g. all subject areas or all countries).
