Regulation of tissue-specific splicing of the calcitonin/calcitonin gene-related peptide gene by RNA-binding proteins.
Transcripts of the rat calcitonin/calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) gene are alternatively spliced in a tissue-specific manner resulting in the production of calcitonin mRNA and peptide in thyroid C cells and CGRP mRNA and peptide in neurons. Transfection studies using calcitonin and chimaeric human beta-globin/calcitonin exon minigene constructs showed that the splice acceptor and exon sp...
متن کاملThe Regulation of Trypanosome Gene Expression by RNA-Binding Proteins
The genome organization of trypanosomes, leishmanias, and related kinetoplastid organisms is highly unusual: Each RNA polymerase II promoter precedes multiple open reading frames, and the primary transcript is cut into individual mRNAs by 59 trans splicing and 39 polyadenylation [1]. Dedicated control of transcription at the level of individual mRNAs is therefore not possible. Nevertheless, mRN...

To increase the production level of heterologous proteins in plants, strategies such as choice of strongerpromoters, optimization of codon usage and specific localization of foreign proteins are of major concern.Calcitonin (CT), a 32 amino acid polypeptide is a powerful and specific inhibitor of bone resorption and isused to treat several human diseases. Calcitonin activity is...
متن کاملDown-Regulation of sidB Gene by Use of RNA Interference in Aspergillus nidulans
Background: Introduction of the RNA interference (RNAi) machinery has guided the researchers to discover the function of essential vital or virulence factor genes in the microorganisms such as fungi. In the filamentous fungus Aspergillus nidulans, the gene sidB plays an essential role in septation, conidiation and vegetative hyphal growth. In the present study, we benefited from the RNAi strate...

چکیده: سرطان پستان دومین عامل مرگ مرتبط با سرطان در خانم ها است. از آنجا که سرطان پستان یک تومور وابسته به هورمون است، می تواند توسط وضعیت هورمون های استروئیدی شامل استروژن و پروژسترون تنظیم شود. استروژن نقش مهمی در توسعه و پیشرفت سرطان پستان ایفا می کند و تاثیر خود را روی بیان ژن های هدف از طریق گیرنده های استروژن اعمال می کند. اما گروه دیگری از گیرنده های هسته ای به نام گیرنده های مرتبط به ا...
