Research summary

Caleb M. Embree studies how messenger RNA (mRNA), the molecular messenger that carries genetic instructions from DNA to make proteins, is regulated after it is made. His recent work focuses on 'cap-chaperone' proteins (like eIF4E and NCBP2) that bind the mRNA cap and influence its fate, on nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (a quality-control pathway that degrades faulty mRNAs), and on how splicing (the editing of RNA before it becomes a final message) affects gene expression, including in the context of cancer cells such as acute myeloid leukemia.

Publication output was sparse and irregular from 2017-2022 but has increased noticeably from 2023 through 2026, suggesting a recent uptick in research activity.
