An analysis of vertebrate mRNA sequences: intimations of translational control
Five structural features in mRNAs have been found to contribute to the fidelity and efficiency of initiation by eukaryotic ribosomes. Scrutiny of vertebrate cDNA sequences in light of these criteria reveals a set of transcripts--encoding oncoproteins, growth factors, transcription factors, and other regulatory proteins--that seem designed to be translated poorly. Thus, throttling at the level o...
متن کاملTranslational control of gene expression and disease.
In the past decade, translational control has been shown to be crucial in the regulation of gene expression. Research in this field has progressed rapidly, revealing new control mechanisms and adding constantly to the list of translationally regulated genes. There is accumulating evidence that translational control plays a primary role in cell-cycle progression and cell differentiation, as well...
متن کاملDNA methylation and control of gene expression in vertebrate development.
MeCpGs act as ligands for nuclear factors (repressors) that are components of chromatin modification and remodelling activities. The DNA-methylation-mediated repression system (Dnmt1s, MeCPs and MBDs) is highly conserved in vertebrates. DNA methylation is essential for normal vertebrate development. It is possible (but remains unproven) that the role of DNA methylation in regulating development...
متن کاملTropomyosin isoforms bias actin track selection by vertebrate myosin Va
Tropomyosin (Tpm) isoforms decorate actin with distinct spatial and temporal localization patterns in cells and thus may function to sort actomyosin processes by modifying the actin track affinity for specific myosin isoforms. We examined the effect of three Tpm isoforms on the ability of myosin Va (myoVa) to engage with actin in vitro in the absence or presence of the cargo adapter melanophili...
متن کاملTranslational control of puf operon expression in Rhodobacter sphaeroides 2.4.1.
The puf operon of Rhodobacter sphaeroides 2.4.1 encode the beta- and alpha-polypeptides of the B875 complex, the L and M polypeptides of the reaction centre and the pufX gene product. A previous report from the authors' laboratory indicated the potential existence of a 20-codon open reading frame (orfK, now designated pufK) located immediately upstream of the pufB structural gene. It is now dem...
