Evolution of Gene Expression after Gene Amplification
We took a rather unique approach to investigate the conservation of gene expression of prolamin storage protein genes across two different subfamilies of the Poaceae. We took advantage of oat plants carrying single maize chromosomes in different cultivars, called oat-maize addition (OMA) lines, which permitted us to determine whether regulation of gene expression was conserved between the two s...
متن کاملRelationships Linking Amplification Level to Gene Over-Expression in Gliomas
BACKGROUND Gene amplification is thought to promote over-expression of genes favouring tumour development. Because amplified regions are usually megabase-long, amplification often concerns numerous syntenic or non-syntenic genes, among which only a subset is over-expressed. The rationale for these differences remains poorly understood. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDING To address this question, w...
متن کاملGene Expression and Pulmonary Toxicity of Chitosan-graft-Polyethylenimine as Aerosol Gene Carrier
Chitosan-graft-polyethylenimine (CHI-g-PEI) copolymer has been used for theimprovement of low transfection efficiency of chitosan. The present study aims to test thepulmonary toxicity and efficiency of CHI-g-PEI as an aerosol gene carrier. Mice were exposedto aerosol containing green-fluorescent protein (GFP)-polyethylenimine (PEI) or GFP-CHIg-PEI complexes for 30 min during the development of ...

متن کاملRegulation of Gene Expression
For all living cells, regulation of gene expression by extracellular signals is a fundamental mechanism of development, homeostasis, and adaptation to the environment. Indeed, the ultimate step in many signal transduction pathways is the modification of transcription factors that can alter the expression of specific genes. Thus, neurotransmitters, growth factors, and drugs are all capable of al...
