The Transition of Poised RNA Polymerase II to an Actively Elongating State Is a “Complex” Affair
The initial discovery of the occupancy of RNA polymerase II at certain genes prior to their transcriptional activation occurred a quarter century ago in Drosophila. The preloading of these poised complexes in this inactive state is now apparent in many different organisms across the evolutionary spectrum and occurs at a broad and diverse set of genes. In this paper, we discuss the genetic and b...
متن کاملMre11-Rad50-Nbs1 complex is activated by hypertonicity.
When exposed to hypertonic conditions, cells accumulate double-strand DNA breaks (DSBs) like they are exposed to ionizing radiation. It has been proposed that inactivation of the Mre11-Rad50-Nbs1 (MRN) complex due to nuclear exit is responsible for the accumulation of DSBs as cells fail to repair DSBs produced during normal cellular activity. In this study, we examined the MRN complex in cells ...
متن کاملSNF1/AMP-Activated Protein Kinases: Genes, Expression and Biological Role
Most of the physiological and metabolic processes in any organism are controlled by a regulatory factor network, which includes a lot of protein kinases, protein phosphatases and transcription factors. Protein kinases and phosphatases are key regulators of the majority of transcription factors which control metabolism both in normal and in different pathological conditions; it is a circadian ty...
متن کاملA biologically-motivated system is poised at a critical state
We explore the critical behaviors in the dynamics of information transfer of a biologically-inspired system by an individual-based model. “Quorum response”, a type of social interaction which has been recognized taxonomically in animal groups, is applied as the sole interaction rule among particles. We assume a truncated Gaussian distribution to quantitatively depict the distribution of the par...
متن کاملActivation of yeast Snf1 and mammalian AMP-activated protein kinase by upstream kinases.
The Snf1/AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) family plays fundamental roles in cellular responses to metabolic stress in eukaryotes. In humans, AMPK regulates lipid and glucose metabolism and has been implicated in such metabolic disorders as diabetes and obesity and in cardiac abnormalities. Snf1 and AMPK are the downstream components of kinase cascades, but the upstream kinase(s) have remaine...
