Eukaryotic gene expression occurs in the context of structurally distinct chromosomal domains such as the relatively open, gene-rich, and transcriptionally active euchromatin and the condensed and gene-poor heterochromatin where its specific chromatin environment inhibits transcription. To study gene silencing by heterochromatin, we created a minichromosome reporter system where the gene silenc...
The identification of a common cis-acting silencer element, a neuron-restrictive silencer element (NRSE), in multiple neuron-specific genes, together with the finding that zinc finger transcription factor REST/NRSF/XBR could confer NRSE-mediated silencing in non-neuronal cells, suggested that REST/NRSF/XBR is a master negative regulator of neurogenesis. Here we show that, although REST/NRSF/XBR...
A plate silencer consists of an expansion chamber with two side-branch cavities covered by light but extremely stiff plates. It works effectively with a wide stopband from low-to-medium frequencies only if the plate is extremely stiff, to ensure a strong reflection of acoustic wave to the upstream in the duct. However, a plate with a slightly weak bending stiffness will result in non-uniform tr...
We investigated the gene expression of the nuclear transcription factors c/EBPalpha, GATA-2, and the silencer Oct-1 in conjunction with the gene expression of all major cytochrome P450 genes and of eNOS in cultures of endothelial cells of the rat. The purity of cultured endothelial cells was also confirmed by flow cytometry measurements of PECAM-1, a surface antigen of endothelial cells. Taken ...
The RE1 binding silencer protein REST represses neuronal-specific gene expression in nonneuronal cell types. In this issue of Neuron, Ballas et al. show that REST inhibits gene expression via the recruitment of multiple histone deacetylase complexes.
Transcriptional silencing in the budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae may be linked to DNA replication and cell cycle progression. In this study, we have surveyed the effect of 41 mutations in genes with a role in replication, the cell cycle, and DNA repair on silencing at HMR. Mutations in PCNA (POL30), RF-C (CDC44), polymerase ε (POL2, DPB2, DPB11), and CDC45 were found to restore silencing...
The clinical diversity of sickle cell anemia is strongly related to the degree of intracellular hemoglobin S (Hb S) polymerization, which in turn is dependent on the intracellular concentration of Hb S. We have recently defined a region of DNA approximately 500 bp 5‘ to the human p-globin gene that acts as a silencer for the transcription of this gene and have shown that a polymbrphism in this ...
T lymphocytes differentiate in discrete stages within the thymus. Immature thymocytes lacking CD4 and CD8 coreceptors differentiate into double-positive cells (CD4(+)CD8(+)), which are selected to become either CD4(+)CD8(-)helper cells or CD4(-)CD8(+) cytotoxic cells. A stage-specific transcriptional silencer regulates expression of CD4 in both immature and CD4(-)CD8(+) thymocytes. We show here...
Starting from a random RNA library expressed in yeast cells, we evolved an RNA-based transcriptional silencing domain with potency comparable to that observed when Sir1, a known silencing protein, is localized to a promoter. Using secondary-structure predictions and site-directed mutagenesis, we dissected the functional domains of the most active evolved RNA transcriptional silencer. Observed R...
The secondary structure of a pre-mRNA influences a number of processing steps including alternative splicing. Since most splicing regulatory proteins bind to single-stranded RNA, the sequestration of RNA into double strands could prevent their binding. Here, we analyzed the secondary structure context of experimentally determined splicing enhancer and silencer motifs in their natural pre-mRNA c...
