Project Summary Our long-term goal is to understand how dynamic regulation of signal transduction systems control cellular stress responses. The focus of this proposal is on identifying the mechanisms by which dynamic expression of the transcription factors p53 and MYC coordinately regulate apoptosis and senescence in response to genotoxic stress. Proper regulation of p53 and MYC are of undeniable importance in human health, as their mutation predisposes human cells to cancer. While the regulation and functions of p53 and MYC have been extensively studied, exactly how they generate variable cell fate outcomes in individual cells of a population responding to the same stress remains poorly…
