Powerful dominant negative mutants of the human estrogen receptor.
We have identified and characterized three human estrogen receptor (ER) mutants, which, at low concentrations, are capable of blocking the intracellular activity of wild type ER. The mutants, a truncated ER (ER1-530), a point mutant (L540Q), and a frameshift (S554fs), were generated by random chemical mutagenesis of the ER hormone binding domain and screened first for low activity in a yeast se...
متن کاملUnrestricted accessibility of short oligonucleotides to RNA.
The propensity of RNA to fold into higher-order structures poses a major barrier to the use of short probes (<15 nucleotides) by preventing their accessibility. Introduction of the pseudo-complementary bases 2-aminoadenine (nA) and 2-thiouracil (sU) and the destabilizing base 7-deazaguanine (cG) into RNA provides a partial solution to this problem. While complementary in hydrogen bonding groups...
متن کاملTrans-dominant negative mutants of Fos and Jun.
Jun and Fos nuclear oncoproteins form a complex that regulates transcription from promoters containing activator protein AP-1 binding sites. The leucine-zipper and basic-region domains of both Fos and Jun are necessary for formation of the heterodimer that binds to DNA. Reciprocal mutations in the basic region of Fos or Jun can influence the binding of the heterodimer to DNA, implying a symmetr...
متن کاملDifferential potency of dominant negative connexin43 mutants in oculodentodigital dysplasia.
Oculodentodigital dysplasia (ODDD) is a congenital autosomal dominant disorder with phenotypic variability, which has been associated with mutations in the GJA1 gene encoding connexin43 (Cx43). Given that Cx43 mutants are thought to be equally co-expressed with wild-type Cx43 in ODDD patients, it is imperative to examine the consequence of these mutants in model systems that reflect this molar ...
متن کاملEnhancers of conidiation mutants in Aspergillus nidulans.
Mutants at a number of loci, designated sthenyo, have been isolated as enhancers of the oligoconidial mutations at the medA locus. Two loci have been mapped: sthA on linkage group I, and sthB on linkage group V. Two probable alleles have been identified at each locus but two further mutants were unlinked to either sthA or sthB. Neither sthA nor sthB mutants have conspicuous effects on morpholog...
