Myosin light chain 3F regulatory sequences confer regionalized cardiac and skeletal muscle expression in transgenic mice
The myosin light chain IF/3F locus contains two independent promoters, MLC1F and MLC3F, which are differentially activated during skeletal muscle development. Transcription at this locus is regulated by a 3' skeletal muscle enhancer element, which directs correct temporal and tissue-specific expression from the MLC1F promoter in transgenic mice. To investigate the role of this enhancer in regul...
متن کاملConservation of regulatory sequences and gene expression patterns in the disintegrating Drosophila Hox gene complex.
Homeotic (Hox) genes are usually clustered and arranged in the same order as they are expressed along the anteroposterior body axis of metazoans. The mechanistic explanation for this colinearity has been elusive, and it may well be that a single and universal cause does not exist. The Hox-gene complex (HOM-C) has been rearranged differently in several Drosophila species, producing a striking di...
متن کاملAnalysis of muscle creatine kinase gene regulatory elements in skeletal and cardiac muscles of transgenic mice.
Regulatory regions of the mouse muscle creatine kinase (MCK) gene, previously discovered by analysis in cultured muscle cells, were analyzed in transgenic mice. The 206-bp MCK enhancer at nt-1256 was required for high-level expression of MCK-chloramphenicol acetyltransferase fusion genes in skeletal and cardiac muscle; however, unlike its behavior in cell culture, inclusion of the 1-kb region o...
متن کاملInvestigation of the RBP4 and GLUT4 gene expression in skeletal muscle of STZ induced diabetic rats following aerobic exercise training
Background: Type2 diabetes is a metabolic disease that is rapidly increasing in the world. GLUT4 and RBP4 are factors that play a role in glucose uptake. This study aimed to investigate the effect of moderate-intensity continuous training on RBP4 and GLUT4 gene expression of soleus muscle in STZ induced diabetic rats. Methods: This experimental study was conducted between May and September 201...
متن کاملKey Regulatory Gene Expression in Erythroleukemia Differentiation
The characteristics of cellular and molecular mechanisms associated with cell proliferation and differentiation is important to understand malignancy. In this report we characterise a leukemic model, D5A1, to study the action of differentiation agent, cellular events and gene expression of the selected transcription factors. Cells induced with 4 mM hexamethylene bisacetamide (HMBA) caused signs...
