Research on Mutant p5
At CCIR Academy, Aadi explored bioinformatics through a research project titled “A Bioinformatics Analysis of the Transcription Interactions of Mutant p5.”
His project investigates how mutant p5 may influence gene expression and transcriptional regulation. To explore these effects, Aadi analyses genomic data using bioinformatics techniques. This approach helps him investigate potential target genes, transcription factors, and regulatory elements linked to the mutant protein.
