But it remained unclear whether the gene had a counterpart in humans and – if it did – how that human version would work.Now, researchers led by UCLA ’sDr. Paul Krebsbach are the first to characterize the mechanism of the human equivalent, which they call mammalian EAK-7, or mEAK-7.Krebsbach, dean of theUCLA School of Dentistry and a professor of periodontics, led a team that found mEAK-7 regulates the molecular process, or “metabolic pathway,” that dictates cell growth and human development.The disruption of those processes is part of what causes cancer and other diseases, as well as some neurological disorders.
