Extensive sex-specific nonadditivity of gene expression in Drosophila melanogaster.
Assessment of the degree to which gene expression is additive and heritable has important implications for understanding the maintenance of variation, adaptation, phenotypic divergence, and the mapping of genotype onto phenotype. We used whole-genome transcript profiling using Agilent long-oligonucleotide microarrays representing 12,017 genes to demonstrate that gene transcription is pervasivel...
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...
متن کاملGene trapping uncovers sex-specific mechanisms for upstream stimulatory factors 1 and 2 in angiotensinogen expression.
A single-nucleotide polymorphism (C/A) located within an E-box at the -20 position of the human angiotensinogen (AGT) promoter may regulate transcriptional activation through differential recruitment of the transcription factors upstream stimulatory factor (USF) 1 and 2. To study the contribution of USF1 on AGT gene expression, mice carrying a (-20C) human AGT (hAGT) transgene were bred with mi...
متن کاملSex-specific regulation of the male-specific lethal-1 dosage compensation gene in Drosophila.
Dosage compensation in Drosophila occurs by a twofold increase in transcription per copy of X-linked genes in males (XY) compared with females (XX). msl-1 is one of four genes that are essential for dosage compensation in males, and MSL-1 protein is associated specifically with the male X chromosome. To explore the basis for the sex specificity of dosage compensation, we examined MSL-1 expressi...
متن کاملSex-specific effects of cis-regulatory variants in Drosophila melanogaster.
Sexual dimorphism at the level of gene expression is common and well documented, but much less is known about how different cis-regulatory alleles interact with the different trans-regulatory environments present in males and females. Here we show that sex-specific effects of cis-regulatory variants are common in Drosophila.
