Cell-Specific Post-Transcriptional Regulation of γ-Synuclein Gene by Micro-RNAs
γ-Synuclein is a member of the synucleins family of small proteins, which consists of three members:α, β- and γ-synuclein. γ-Synuclein is abnormally expressed in a high percentage of advanced and metastatic tumors, but not in normal or benign tissues. Furthermore, γ-synuclein expression is strongly correlated with disease progression, and can stimulate proliferation, induce invasion and metasta...
متن کاملPost-Transcriptional Regulation of Papillomavirus Gene Expression
Papillomavirus genomes are transcribed as one large complex transcription unit with multiple promoters, two poly(A) sites (early and late), and considerable alternative splicing. As a result, there are multiple opportunities for post-transcriptional regulation of papillomavirus gene expression. Although this area has not been as extensively studied as transcriptional regulation, there are a few...
متن کاملPost-transcriptional regulation mediated by specific neurofilament introns in vivo.
Neurons regulate genes post-transcriptionally to coordinate the supply of cytoskeletal proteins, such as the medium neurofilament (NEFM), with demand for structural materials in response to extracellular cues encountered by developing axons. By using a method for evaluating functionality of cis-regulatory gene elements in vivo through plasmid injection into Xenopus embryos, we discovered that s...
متن کاملIsolation and Identification of Post-Transcriptional Gene Silencing-Related Micro-RNAs by Functionalized Silicon Nanowire Field-effect Transistor
Many transcribed RNAs are non-coding RNAs, including microRNAs (miRNAs), which bind to complementary sequences on messenger RNAs to regulate the translation efficacy. Therefore, identifying the miRNAs expressed in cells/organisms aids in understanding genetic control in cells/organisms. In this report, we determined the binding of oligonucleotides to a receptor-modified silicon nanowire field-e...
متن کاملCell-Specific Transcriptional Regulation of Human Leukotriene B4 Receptor Gene
Leukotriene B(4) (LTB(4)) is a lipid mediator that activates leukocytes and is involved in host defense and inflammation. BLT1, a high-affinity receptor for LTB(4) (originally termed BLT), is expressed exclusively in inflammatory cells and is inducible in macrophages upon activation. The mechanisms of tissue-specific expression and induction of BLT1 are important for the understanding of mechan...
