Cell cycle regulation of flagellar genes.

چکیده
The expression of the flagellar master operon, flhDC, peaked in the middle of three consecutive cell cycles. The level of expression was lowest at the time of cell division. The expression of the second-level operon, flhB, peaked at cell division. The swimming speed of individual cells was also highest at the time of cell division.

Effects of berberine on the secretion of cytokines and expression of genes involved in cell cycle regulation in THP-1 monocytic cell line
Objective(s): Current acute myeloid leukemia (AML) therapeutic strategies have irreversible side-effects. Berberine (BBR) is an isoquinoline alkaloid, which has been known as an aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) ligand. AhR is a cytoplasmic receptor, which is involved in the regulation of cellular and immune responses. Here, we investigated the expression profile of genes involved in the cell cyc...
متن کاملRegulation of cellular differentiation in Caulobacter crescentus.
In Caulobacter crescentus, asymmetry is generated in the predivisional cell, resulting in the formation of two distinct cell types upon cell division: a motile swarmer cell and a sessile stalked cell. These progeny cell types differ in their relative programs of gene expression and DNA replication. In progeny swarmer cells, DNA replication is silenced for a defined period, but stalked cells rei...
متن کاملA mutation that uncouples flagellum assembly from transcription alters the temporal pattern of flagellar gene expression in Caulobacter crescentus.
The transcription of flagellar genes in Caulobacter crescentus is regulated by cell cycle events that culminate in the synthesis of a new flagellum once every cell division. Early flagellar gene products regulate the expression of late flagellar genes at two distinct stages of the flagellar trans-acting hierarchy. Here we investigate the coupling of early flagellar biogenesis with middle and la...
متن کاملCoordinate cell cycle control of a Caulobacter DNA methyltransferase and the flagellar genetic hierarchy.
The expression of the Caulobacter ccrM gene and the activity of its product, the M.Ccr II DNA methyltransferase, are limited to a discrete portion of the cell cycle (G. Zweiger, G. Marczynski, and L. Shapiro, J. Mol. Biol. 235:472-485, 1994). Temporal control of DNA methylation has been shown to be critical for normal development in the dimorphic Caulobacter life cycle. To understand the mechan...

Introduction: One mechanism of cell cycle manipulation and mitotic catastrophe is arrest at G2/M phase of cell cycle. Cabazitaxel, a mitotic inhibitor agent, is a second-generation semisynthetic taxane. An expected anti-neoplastic effect of Cabazitaxel is cell cycle perturbation and alteration of microtubule dynamics. In contrast to other taxane compounds, Cabazitaxel is a poo...
