A rat-tissue aminotransferase acting on L-tyrosine O-sulphate.
1. Rat tissues have been shown to possess an aminotransferase that is active towards l-tyrosine O-sulphate and dependent on 2-oxoglutarate and pyridoxal phosphate. 2. Kidney, liver and pancreas have the greatest activity and the enzyme is localized mainly in the mitochondrial fraction in the liver and kidney cell. 3. The enzyme was shown to be distinct from l-tyrosine-2-oxoglutarate aminotransf...
متن کاملA new cis-acting regulatory element driving gene expression in the zebrafish pineal gland
MOTIVATION The identification of functional cis-acting DNA regulatory elements is a crucial step towards understanding gene regulation. Ab initio motif detection algorithms have been extensively used in search of regulatory elements. Yet, their success in providing experimentally validated regulatory elements in vertebrates has been limited. RESULTS Here we report in silico identification and...
متن کاملIdentification of a cis-acting regulatory element conferring inducibility of the atrial natriuretic factor gene in acute pressure overload.
To identify the cis-acting regulatory element(s) which control the induction of the atrial natriuretic factor (ANF) gene in acute pressure overload, DNA constructs consisting of promoter elements linked to a reporter gene were injected into the myocardium of dogs, which underwent aortic banding or were sham-operated. Expression of a reporter gene construct harboring the ANF promoter (-3400ANF) ...
متن کاملThe identification of a cis-acting element involved in cyclic 3',5'-adenosine monophosphate regulation of bovine vasopressin gene expression.
Cyclic adenosine 3',5'-monophosphate (cAMP) has been implicated as an intracellular messenger mediating osmotic regulation of expression of the gene encoding the neuropeptide vasopressin (VP) in the hypothalamus. We have used a heterologous transient transfection system to demonstrate that cAMP regulates the bovine VP gene promoter following transfection into CV1 cells. Mutational analysis iden...
متن کاملSelectable Marker Gene Removal and Expression of Transgene by Inducible Promoter Containing FFDD Cis-Acting elements in Transgenic plants
Abstract Background: Selectable marker gene (SMG) systems are critical for generation of transgenic crops. Transgenic crop production Background: Selectable marker gene (SMG) systems are critical for generation of transgenic crops. Transgenic crop production without using SMG is not economically feasible. However, SMGs are non-essential once an intact transgenic plant has been established. Eli...
