Our work revealed DNA break formation and rearrangements at the Mixed Lineage Leukemia (MLL) gene of the human genome, once DNA replication stress shuttles Endonuclease G from mitochondria to the nucleus. Library screening as well as 3D structure modelling identified human peptides that protect against these genome rearrangements causing secondary leukemia in response to chemotherapy.

The aim of this project will be to elucidate the mechanisms of peptidic compounds that protect against leukemia-inducing genome rearrangements. The candidate will exploit unique model systems to dissect the mechanisms of therapy-induced rearrangements at fragile sites. Techniques will cover the full range of molecular and cell biological methods from peptide biochemistry to multiparametric immunofluorescence microscopy as well as ChiP-Seq and proteomics.
