Distinct regulatory elements mediate similar expression patterns in the excretory cell of Caenorhabditis elegans.
Identification of cis-regulatory elements and their binding proteins constitutes an important part of understanding gene function and regulation. It is well accepted that co-expressed genes tend to share transcriptional elements. However, recent findings indicate that co-expression data show poor correlation with co-regulation data even in unicellular yeast. This motivates us to experimentally ...
متن کاملMultiple RNA regulatory elements mediate distinct steps in localization of oskar mRNA.
Pattern formation in the early development of many organisms relies on localized cytoplasmic proteins, which can be prelocalized as mRNAs. The Drosophila oskar gene, required both for posterior body patterning and germ cell determination, encodes one such mRNA. Localization of oskar mRNA is an elaborate process involving movement of the transcript first into the oocyte from adjacent interconnec...
متن کاملDistinct promoter elements mediate endodermal and mesodermal expression of the HNF1α promoter in transgenic Xenopus
The gene encoding the tissue specific transcription factor HNF1alpha is expressed in vertebrates in tissues of endodermal origin such as the liver and the gut as well as in the kidney, a mesoderm derived organ. Using a 6 kb HNF1alpha promoter fragment linked to GFP we observed green fluorescence in transgenic embryos restricted to the liver and gut as well as to the pronephros, the embryonic ki...
متن کاملPax4 regulatory elements mediate beta cell specific expression in the pancreas
Pax4 is a member of the Pax (Pax, paired box) family of transcription factors with restricted expression and essential functions in the developing pancreas. Pax4 deficient mice do not develop pancreatic beta and delta cells and thus die after birth due to diabetes. In this study using transgenic mouse technology we report the identification and characterization of a 0.9 kb DNA fragment in the 5...
متن کاملDistinct Cis Regulatory Elements Govern the Expression of TAG1 in Embryonic Sensory Ganglia and Spinal Cord
Cell fate commitment of spinal progenitor neurons is initiated by long-range, midline-derived, morphogens that regulate an array of transcription factors that, in turn, act sequentially or in parallel to control neuronal differentiation. Included among these are transcription factors that regulate the expression of receptors for guidance cues, thereby determining axonal trajectories. The Ig/FNI...
