Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Jasmine Kaur Ahluwalia"
- Jasmine Kaur Ahluwalia's research primarily focuses on the post-transcriptional regulation of gene expression by microRNAs, particularly how single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) can influence this process and lead to variations in phenotype.
- In her 2012 article, she validated predicted microRNA-target interactions that regulate the expression of specific genes, namely JAG1 and TGFBR2, using luciferase reporter assays and expression analysis.
- The study highlights the concept of differential targeting of homologous 3'UTRs by microRNAs, emphasizing the complexity introduced by genetic variations at SNPs, which may contribute to incomplete penetrance and variable expressivity in biological traits.
