Polycomb repressive complexes (PRCs) and the rixosome are evolutionarily conserved enzymes that are required for silencing the developmental genes of multicellular organisms. This project aims to investigate how these key regulators maintain gene repression using cutting-edge approaches ranging from biochemistry, structural biology, cell biology to genomics. The expected outcomes include generating new knowledge in gene regulation, strengthening the research capabilities of Australia in fundamental biology, and training the next generation of scientists.

Polycomb抑制性复合物（PRC）和rixosos是进化保守的酶，这些酶是沉默多细胞生物的发育基因所必需的。该项目旨在研究这些关键调节剂如何使用从生物化学，结构生物学，细胞生物学到基因组学等尖端方法来维持基因抑制。预期的结果包括在基因调节方面产生新知识，增强澳大利亚在基本生物学方面的研究能力以及培训下一代科学家。
