Catherine Eichhorn, assistant professor of chemistry at Nebraska, will use a five-year, $1 million grant from the National Science Foundation’s Faculty Early Career Development Program to develop a clearer picture of the structure-function relationship in RNA and ribonucleoproteins, or RNPs, which are RNA-protein complexes. She’s focusing her work on 7SK RNP, a key player in regulating gene expression.
