Compartmentalization of vertebrate optic neuroephithelium: external cues and transcription factors.
The vertebrate eye is a laterally extended structure of the forebrain. It develops through a series of events, including specification and regionalization of the anterior neural plate, evagination of the optic vesicle (OV), and development of three distinct optic structures: the neural retina (NR), optic stalk (OS), and retinal pigment epithelium (RPE). Various external signals that act on the ...
متن کاملCompilation of vertebrate-encoded transcription factors
Since the discovery of DNA elements controlling the initiation of transcription by RNA polymerase II some ten years ago, it has become evident that the frequency of transcription initiation depends on proteins interacting with specific DNA elements of gene regulatory regions. Especially during the last three years an enormous number of such proteins, called transcription factors, have been isol...
متن کاملEstimating Location without External Cues
The ability to determine one's location is fundamental to spatial navigation. Here, it is shown that localization is theoretically possible without the use of external cues, and without knowledge of initial position or orientation. With only error-prone self-motion estimates as input, a fully disoriented agent can, in principle, determine its location in familiar spaces with 1-fold rotational s...
متن کاملCompartmentalization of transcription and translation in Bacillus subtilis.
Using fusions of green fluorescent protein to subunits of RNA polymerase (RNAP) and ribosomes, we have investigated the subcellular localization of the transcriptional and translational machinery in the bacterium Bacillus subtilis. Unexpectedly, we found that RNAP resides principally within the nucleoid. Conversely, ribosomes localized almost exclusively outside the nucleoid, concentrating part...
متن کاملModelling the compartmentalization of splicing factors.
Splicing factor (SF) compartments, also known as speckles, are heterogeneously distributed compartments within the nucleus of eukaryotic cells that are enriched in pre-mRNA SFs. We derive a fourth-order aggregation-diffusion model that describes a possible mechanism underlying the organization of SFs into speckles. The model incorporates two hypotheses, namely (1) that self-organization of deph...
