Clusters of multiple different small nucleolar RNA genes in plants are expressed as and processed from polycistronic pre-snoRNAs.
Small nucleolar RNAs (snoRNAs) are involved in many aspects of rRNA processing and maturation. In animals and yeast, a large number of snoRNAs are encoded within introns of protein-coding genes. These introns contain only single snoRNA genes and their processing involves exonucleolytic release of the snoRNA from debranched intron lariats. In contrast, some U14 genes in plants are found in small...
متن کاملApoptotic effect of apoptin gene transduction on multiple myeloma cell line
Introduction: Following the first description of multiple myeloma (MM), as the second most prevalent hematologic malignancy, multiple promising advances have paved the way to increase the long-lasting complete remission for patients. In the era of the novel therapeutic approaches, the cloning of the apoptosis-inducing genes into the genome of malignant cells has attracted tremendous attention. ...
متن کاملRegulation of transcription termination in the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans
The current predicted mechanisms that describe RNA polymerase II (pol II) transcription termination downstream of protein expressing genes fail to adequately explain, how premature termination is prevented in eukaryotes that possess operon-like structures. Here we address this issue by analysing transcription termination at the end of single protein expressing genes and genes located within ope...
متن کاملDifferential Expression of Arabidopsis thaliana Acid Phosphatases in Response to Abiotic Stresses
The objective of this research is to identify Arabidopsis thaliana genes encoding acid phosphatases induced by phosphate starvation. Multiple alignments of eukaryotic acid phosphatase amino acid sequences led to the classification of these proteins into four groups including purple acid phosphatases (PAPs). Specific primers were degenerated and designed based on conserved sequences of PAPs isol...
متن کاملGenetic transformation of Tomato with three pathogenesis-related protein genes for increased resistance to Fusarium oxysporum f.sp. lycopersici
Fusarium wilt caused by Fusarium oxysporum f.sp. Lycopersici is one of the major obstacles to the production of tomato which causes huge losses in tomato products worldwide. In order to increase the tolerance to this disease, a triple structure containing PR1, chitinase and glucanase genes controlled by 35S promoter was transferred to tomato. Eight days after planting on pre-culture me...
