Highly sensitive control of transcriptional activity by factor heterodimerization.
Several molecular mechanisms have been proposed to explain highly sensitive controls of cellular functions by effector molecules. Here we study an equilibrium model describing the regulation of transcriptional activity through the heterodimerization of transcription factors. We demonstrate that this model involves a new type of biochemical control which accounts for a very high sensitivity.

در این پایان نامه، درهمتنیدگی بین یک سیستم نقطه کوانتومی دوگانه(مولکول نقطه کوانتومی) و میدان مورد مطالعه قرار گرفته است. از آنتروپی ون نیومن به عنوان ابزاری برای بررسی درهمتنیدگی بین اتم و میدان استفاده شده و تاثیر پارامترهای مختلف، نظیر تونل زنی(که توسط تغییر ولتاژ ایجاد می شود)، شدت میدان و نسبت دو گسیل خودبخودی بر رفتار درجه درهمتنیدگی سیستم بررسی شده اشت.با تغییر هر یک از این پارامترها، در...
15 صفحه اولRegulation of the yeast transcriptional factor PHO2 activity by phosphorylation.
The induction of yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae gene PHO5 expression is mediated by transcriptional factors PHO2 and PHO4. PHO4 protein has been reported to be phosphorylated and inactivated by a cyclin-CDK (cyclin-dependent kinase) complex, PHO80-PHO85. We report here that PHO2 can also be phosphorylated. A Ser-230 to Ala mutation in the consensus sequence (SPIK) recognized by cdc2/CDC28-relat...
متن کاملTranscriptional Control of Synaptic Plasticity by Transcription Factor NF-κB
Activation of nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) transcription factors is required for the induction of synaptic plasticity and memory formation. All components of this signaling pathway are localized at synapses, and transcriptionally active NF-κB dimers move to the nucleus to translate synaptic signals into altered gene expression. Neuron-specific inhibition results in altered connectivity of exc...
متن کاملTranscriptional control of epidermal growth factor receptor by retinoic acid.
Retinoic acid (RA) and epidermal growth factor (EGF) regulate growth and differentiation of epithelial cells. RA has both direct and indirect effects on gene expression. Direct effects result from modulation of the transcriptional activity of genes, which contain RA response elements (RARE) recognized by trans-acting nuclear RA receptors (RARs). A second indirect mechanism for the modulatory ef...
