Cis-acting elements in the antigenomic promoter of Nipah virus.
Genome synthesis in paramyxoviruses, including Nipah virus (NiV), is controlled by sequence elements that reside in the non-coding nucleotides at the 5'-trailer (3'-antigenomic) end that make up the antigenomic promoter (AGP). Using a chloramphenicol acetyl transferase-based plasmid-driven minigenome system, the terminal 96 nt of NiV AGP were first mutagenized in blocks of three hexamers to ena...
متن کاملCharacterization of cis-acting and NS1 protein-responsive elements in the p6 promoter of parvovirus B19.
Parvovirus B19 infections are associated with diverse clinical manifestations, ranging from no symptoms to severe symptoms. The virus shows an extreme tropism for replication in erythroid progenitor cells, possibly due to the activity of the only functional promoter (p6) of the B19 virus genome in combination with both cell- and cell cycle-specific factors and the trans-activator protein NS1. A...
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...
متن کاملIdentification and characterization of the cis-acting elements of the human CD155 gene core promoter.
The CD155 protein is the founding member of a new group of related molecules within the immunoglobulin superfamily sharing a V-C2-C2 domain structure and significant amino acid identity. We have recently isolated the promoter of the CD155 gene so that we may determine the transcription factors that regulate its expression and possibly gain insight into the cell biology of this gene. Here we rep...
متن کاملSeparate cis-acting DNA Elements of the Mouse Pro-cd(I) Collagen Promoter Direct Expression of Reporter Genes to Different Type I Collagen-producing Cells in Transgenic Mice
The genes coding for the two type I collagen chains, which are active selectively in osteoblasts, odontoblasts, fibroblasts, and some mesenchymal cells, constitute good models for studying the mechanisms responsible for the cell-specific activity of genes which are expressed in a small number of discrete cell types. To test whether separate genetic elements could direct the activity of the mous...
