Investigating viral genes as possible sensitizers for drug resistant cancer cells
Which viral protein prevents DNA-PK activation?
Investigating viral genes as possible sensitizers for drug resistant cancer cells
Mentor: Eileen Bridge, Ph.D.
Project goals
1) Which viral protein prevents DNA-PK activation? 2) Can inhibition of DNA-PK activation sensitize cancer cells to treatment with chemotherapy drugs? via Nu7441 (proof of principle), via expression of a viral gene
