چکیده

We have isolated a chick cDNA for p63, a member of the p53 transcription factor family. This cDNA encodes a protein of 582 amino acids for an alpha isoform in the C-terminal region, while lacking the N-terminal transactivation domain. The chick p63 gene is first expressed in the prospective cutaneous ectoderm at stage 6 and later in the developing epithelia. The p63 expression is intense in specialized epithelial structures, such as apical ectodermal ridge of the limb bud, epithelia of branchial arches and feather buds. Furthermore, we have found that the transcripts are detected in the interdigital epithelium, intersomite epithelium, and epaxial dermamyotome.

An Immunohistochemical Study Of P63 Protein Expression In Meningioma

  Background and Objective: Histological grading has prognostic and therapeutic implications in meningioma. However, histological criteria are sometimes not fulfilled to predict the biological behavior of meningiomas. P63 gene is a novel P53 family member, known as tumor suppressor factor, with multiple isoforms and shows high expression in many normal and neoplastic human tissues. In this stu...

Cloning and gene expression of cytochrome P450 gene from Alcanivorax borkumensis Bacterium

Alcanivorax borkumensis is a marine bacterium that has ability to grow on limited substrates that mainly is alkanes. The ability to use wide range of hydrocarbons is advantage of this bacterium to other marine community bacteria. A. borkumensis have two genetic systems for alkane biodegradation. The First system is alkane hydroxylase (alk-B1and alk-B2) and the second system is...

Cloning rhoptry protein 1 (ROP1) gene of Toxoplasma gondii (RH) in expression vector

  Toxoplasma gondii contain various immunogenic antigens. The most important Toxoplasma antigens are somatic and excreted/secreted antigens. Rhoptry proteins are known as excreted/secreted antigens. These antigens have been proposed as a vaccine candidate against toxoplasmosis. The main objective of the present work was cloning rhoptry protein1 (ROP1) Gene of Toxoplasma gondii (RH) in a cloning...
