What we study
The Bungert Lab studies how RNA and proteins regulate blood cell development and cancer. They use techniques like proteomics and genomic analysis to understand these processes.

Current projects
The molecular basis of 7SK RNA methylation in non-small cell lung cancer
Investigating how RNA methylation affects lung cancer development.
Structure and Function of the human beta globin locus control region
Studies how the locus control region, a set of DNA sites, switches on the beta-globin genes at the right stage of red blood cell development.

In Vitro Analysis of RNA Polymerase II Transcription Complex Recruitment to the Human ß-Globin Gene Associated Locus Control Region Super-Enhancer
Researchers study how the cell’s RNA‑building machine attaches to a special DNA region that turns on red‑blood‑cell genes. They use a single‑molecule imaging system to see where the machine binds and how long it stays.
