Repressing differentiation
نویسنده
چکیده
ain Cheeseman, Georjana Barnes (University of California, Berkeley, CA), and colleagues have peered into a 28-protein mix and found the individual residues responsible for attaching and detaching chromosomes and microtubules. The phosphorylation of these residues by Ipl1p (an Aurora kinase) apparently allows budding yeast cells to convert monopolar chromosome spindle attachments to bipolar attachments. The group used the mass spectrometry (MS) expertise of Scott Anderson and John Yates (Scripps Research Institute, La Jolla, CA) to identify 28 yeast kinetochore proteins (including 5 I

Repressing of SOX6 and SOX9 in Situ Chondrogenic Differentiation of Rat Bone Marrow Stromal Cells
Introduction: SOX9 is a transcriptional activator which is necessary for chondrogenesis. SOX6 are closely related to DNA-binding proteins that critically enhance its function. Therefore, to carry out the growth plate chondrocyte differentiation program, SOX9 and SOX6 collaborate genomewide. Chondrocyte differentiation is also known to be promoted by glucocorticoids through unknown molecular mec...
متن کاملPelota controls self-renewal of germline stem cells by repressing a Bam-independent differentiation pathway.
In the Drosophila ovary, germline stem cell (GSC) self-renewal is controlled by both extrinsic and intrinsic factors. The Bmp signal from niche cells controls GSC self-renewal by directly repressing a Bam-dependent differentiation pathway in GSCs. pelota (pelo), which has been previously shown to be required for Drosophila male meiosis, was identified in our genetic screen as a dominant suppres...
متن کاملThe role of diffusible molecules in regulating the cellular differentiation of Dictyostelium discoideum.
A central problem in developmental biology is to understand how morphogenetic fields are created and how they act to direct regionalized cellular differentiation. This goal is being pursued in organisms as diverse as moulds, worms, flies, frogs and mice. Each organism has evolved its own solution to the challenge of multicellularity but there appear to be common underlying principles and, once ...
متن کاملEzh2 Orchestrates Gene Expression for the Stepwise Differentiation of Tissue-Specific Stem Cells
Although in vitro studies of embryonic stem cells have identified polycomb repressor complexes (PRCs) as key regulators of differentiation, it remains unclear as to how PRC-mediated mechanisms control fates of multipotent progenitors in developing tissues. Here, we show that an essential PRC component, Ezh2, is expressed in epidermal progenitors but diminishes concomitant with embryonic differe...
متن کاملMusashi: a translational regulator of cell fate.
Transcription is thought to have a major role in the regulation of cell fate; the importance of translational regulation in this process has been less certain. Recent findings demonstrate that translational regulation contributes to cell-fate specification. The evolutionarily conserved, neural RNA-binding protein Musashi, for example, controls neural cell fate. The protein functions in maintena...
متن کاملMicroRNA-378 targets the myogenic repressor MyoR during myoblast differentiation.
MicroRNAs play important roles in many cell processes, including the differentiation process in several different lineages. For example, microRNAs can promote differentiation by repressing negative regulators of transcriptional activity. These regulated transcription factors can further up-regulate levels of the microRNA in a feed-forward mechanism. Here we show that MyoD up-regulates miR-378 d...
