Identification of genes that interact with Drosophila liquid facets.
We have performed mutagenesis screens of the Drosophila X chromosome and the autosomes for dominant enhancers of the rough eye resulting from overexpression of liquid facets. The liquid facets gene encodes the homolog of vertebrate endocytic Epsin, an endocytic adapter protein. In Drosophila, Liquid facets is a core component of the Notch signaling pathway required in the signaling cells for li...
متن کاملIdentification of candidate genes with pro-apoptotic properties by functional screening of randomly fragmented CDNA libraries
The sequences of many genomes are available; therefore, relevant methods are needed for rapid and efficient identification of functional genes. The ability of tumour cells to resist apoptosis induced by anticancer agents may decide about the success or failure of tumour elimination. Although the CD95-signaling pathway is functional in tumour cells, the increased resistance of tumour cells to CD...
متن کاملIdentification and characterization of genes that interact with lin-12 in Caenorhabditis elegans.
We identified and characterized 14 extragenic mutations that suppressed the dominant egg-laying defect of certain lin-12 gain-of-function mutations. These suppressors defined seven genes: sup-17, lag-2, sel-4, sel-5, sel-6, sel-7 and sel-8. Mutations in six of the genes are recessive suppressors, whereas the two mutations that define the seventh gene, lag-2, are semi-dominant suppressors. These...
متن کاملIdentification of Human Chromosome Segments that Have High Homology with Rat Genomic DNA
This study was conducted to determine the location of DNA segment with homology to the rat conserved genomic DNA in human chromosomes. The labeled rat genomic DNA was hybridized with normal human (male) metaphases. The study of 74 metaphases after fluorescence in situ hybridization showed 371 twin-spot signals on human chromosomes. Statistical analysis indicated that the specific accumulation o...
متن کاملDifferential Requirement for Caspase 9 in Apoptotic Pathways In Vivo
Mutation of Caspase 9 (Casp9) results in embryonic lethality and defective brain development associated with decreased apoptosis. Casp9-/- embryonic stem cells and embryonic fibroblasts are resistant to several apoptotic stimuli, including UV and gamma irradiation. Casp9-/- thymocytes are also resistant to dexamethasone- and gamma irradiation-induced apoptosis, but are surprisingly sensitive to...
