abstract background: selectable marker gene (smg) systems are critical for generation of transgenic crops. transgenic crop production background: selectable marker gene (smg) systems are critical for generation of transgenic crops. transgenic crop production without using smg is not economically feasible. however, smgs are non-essential once an intact transgenic plant has been established. elim...

Background: Phytoestrogens, a group of plant-derived polyphenolic compounds have recently come into considerable attention due to the increasing information on their potential adverse effects in human health. Some of phytoestrogens show estrogenic activity that may be carcinogenic for human. In the present study, we investigated the transcriptional effects of variety of phytoestrogens&nbsp...

Abstract Background Our previous study shows that LINC01278 inhibits the malignant proliferation and invasion of papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) cells by regulating miR-376c-3p/DNM3 axis. However, regulation mechanism expression in PTC is still unclear. Methods The luciferase reporter ChIP assays were used to confirm binding LEF-1 putative promoter site gene. RNA immunoprecipitation pulldown ...

background: phytoestrogens, a group of plant-derived polyphenolic compounds have recently come into considerable attention due to the increasing information on their potential adverse effects in human health. some of phytoestrogens show estrogenic activity that may be carcinogenic for human. in the present study, we investigated the transcriptional effects of variety of phytoestrogens on the bo...

background: some of metal ions as environmental pollutants show estrogenic activity. this xenostrogenic compounds can be caused carcinogenicity in organs. the mechanism of carcinogenicity of metal ions is not clarified. objectives: in this study, we investigated the transcriptional effects of variety of metal ions on the bovine oxytocin and the thymidine kinase-ere promoter by estrogen receptor...

purpose: in order to express human granulocyte-macrophage colony stimulating factor (hgm-csf) under heat shock. materials and methods: two expression plasmids were constructed based on pbc(sk) plasmid. the expression cassettes in the two plasmids are equipped with a 75 base pair fragment, derived from the pl promoter of the bacteriophage lambda (λ). the plasmids also contain a temperature muta...

Saccharomyces cerevisiae accumulates trehalose as a stress metabolite in adverse environmental conditions. The synthesis and breakdown are important for the regulation of levels within yeast cell. Therefore, TPS1 NTH1 gene expressions tightly regulated during transcription also translation. Since both genes contain Stress Response Elements (STRE) promoter regions, they co-activated under Howeve...

Objective(s): Phospholipase C ζ (PLCζ) is considered as a nominee for sperm associated oocyte activating factors and is located back-to-back with CAPZA3, an actin-capping protein controlling actin polymerization during spermiogenesis. They contain a common bidirectional promoter. The objective of this study was to identify individuals with parallel low expression of PLCζ and CAPZA3 mRNA, in hop...

Background: Pseudomonas protein expression in E. coli is known to be a setback due to signifi cant genetic variation and absence of several genetic elements in E. coli for regulation and activation of Pseudomonas proteins. Modifi cations in promoter/repressor system and shuttle plasmid maintenance have made the expression of stable and active Pseudomonas protein possible in bot...
