PUBMED DOIInformación adicional
Nuestro principal objetivo es estudiar los mecanismos epigenéticos que regulan la fisiología y la patofisiología del músculo estriado, centrándonos en el complejo remodelador de la cromatina Chd4/NURD. Hemos demostrado que Chd4/NURD controla la identidad de ambos músculos estriados ya que, en el corazón, mantiene reprimidos los genes sarcoméricos del músculo esquelético y viceversa. Actualmente, hemos enfocado nuestro estudio en las proteínas que interaccionan con la ADN-helicasa Chd4, componente principal del complejo NuRD, para intentar comprender cómo influyen estas proteínas en el reclutamiento y función del complejo Chd4/NuRD, y su impacto en la expresión génica que determina la identidad del músculo estriado.
Por otra parte, estamos también estudiando el papel de la helicasa de ADN y RNA llamada Rhau en el desarrollo cardiaco y su impacto en el funcionamiento del sistema de conducción cardiaco. Nuestra metodología de trabajo incluye tanto abordajes in vivo, con el uso de ratones modificados genéticamente, como abordajes in vitro. Con todo, intentamos entender los mecanismos por los cuáles se desarrolla la identidad del músculo estriado para comprender las bases moleculares de algunas patologías raras asociadas a este tejido, tales como algunas miopatías y determinados problemas de conducción cardiaca para, con ello, desarrollar terapias para estas enfermedades.
