In the Lab The goal of Cai lab is to interrogate the molecular mechanisms in facilitation of tumor progression and provide the scientific rationale for cancer treatment. Numerous oncogenic proteins require fatty acyl modifications to carry out their functions in cancer cells. Protein acylation, including myristoylation and palmitoylation, is particularly essential for leading these proteins…
