Factors That Increase the Efficiency of Dna Repair When Using Transcript Rna as a Template
نویسنده
چکیده
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I wish to thank Dr. Francesca Storici, for giving me the opportunity to work in her laboratory. Without this opportunity I would have never been able to have a hands on learning experience in the field of genetics. I would also like to thank Chance Meers for allowing me to work with him in the laboratory and teaching me how to conduct and perform the experiments.

Nickel Increases Chromosomal Abnormalities by Interfering with the Initiation of DNA Repair Pathways
Background: Nickel is a carcinogenic, heavy metal released through industrial activities and via natural resources. It is able to cause DNA damages by reducing the efficiency of DNA repair mechanisms. However, the exact time point at which it is able to interfere with these mechanisms is not yet clearly understood. Methods: To find the most nickel-vulnerable time of repair mechanisms, human de...
متن کاملAssessment of adaptive response of gamma radiation in the operating room personnel exposed to anesthetic gases by measuring the expression of Ku 80, Ligase1 and P53 genes
Introduction: Staffs of operating room are continuously exposed to anesthetic gases and ionizing radiation. Adaptive response, as a defense mechanism, will occur when cells become exposed to a low dose of factors harming DNA that causes in the next exposures to higher doses o...
متن کاملP-230: Analysis of TEX15 Expression in Testis Tissues of Severe Oligozoospermic and Non-Obstructive Azoospermic Men Referred to Royan Institute
Background: TEX15 is a novel protein that is required for chromosomal synapsis and meiotic recombination. Human TEX15 is located on chromosome 8(8p12 region) and expressed in testis and ovary, as is its mouse ortholog. Loss of TEX15 function in mice causes early meiotic arrest in males but not in females. Specifically, TEX15 deficient spermatocytes exhibit a failure in chromosomal synapsis. In ...
متن کاملTATA-binding protein and transcription factor IIB induce transcript slipping during early transcription by RNA polymerase II.
To better understand the mechanism of steps in early transcription by RNA polymerase II (pol II), we investigated the molecular determinants of transcript slipping within complexes assembled on promoters containing a pre-melted transcription bubble from -9 to +3. Transcript slippage occurs when an RNA transcript contains a repetitive sequence that allows the transcript to slip back and pair wit...
متن کاملComputational Identification of Micro RNAs and Their Transcript Target(s) in Field Mustard (Brassica rapa L.)
Background: Micro RNAs (miRNAs) are a pivotal part of non-protein-coding endogenous small RNA molecules that regulate the genes involved in plant growth and development, and respond to biotic and abiotic environmental stresses posttranscriptionally.Objective: In the present study, we report the results of a systemic search for identifi cation of new miRNAs in B. rapa using homology-based ...
