DNA Methylation and Trinucleotide Repeat Expansion Diseases
DNA methylation of CpG dinucleotides is essential for mammalian development, X inactivation, genomic imprinting, and may also be involved in immobilization of transposons and the control of tissue-specific gene expression (Bird & Wolffe, 1999). The common theme in each of these processes is gene silencing. Therefore, gene silencing is a major biological consequence of DNA methylation. As such, ...
متن کاملDNA repair and trinucleotide repeat instability.
enes harboring certain trinucleotide repeat (TNR) sequences are at risk for high-frequency mutations that expand or contract the repeat tract. The triplet sequences CNG (where N = any nucleotide) and GAA are known to cause human disease when they expand by more than a few repeats in certain key genes. One of the crucial questions in the field is the mechanism (or, more likely, mechanisms) of tr...
متن کاملTissue specificity in DNA repair: lessons from trinucleotide repeat instability.
DNA must constantly be repaired to maintain genome stability. Although it is clear that DNA repair reactions depend on cell type and developmental stage, we know surprisingly little about the mechanisms that underlie this tissue specificity. This is due, in part, to the lack of adequate study systems. This review discusses recent progress toward understanding the mechanism leading to varying ra...
متن کاملKinetic and thermodynamic studies of the removal of murexide from aqueous solutions on to activated carbon
The objective of this study was to assess the adsorption potential of activated carbon (AC) asan adsorbent for the removal of Murexide (Mu) from aqueous solutions. The influence of variablesparameters including pH, amount of adsorbent, sieve size of adsorbent, temperature and contact timeon Mu removal was studied. Following optimization of variables, the relation between concentrations ofdye re...
متن کاملpostnatal studies of bats (pipistrellus kuhlii and miniopterus schreibersii) & histomorphology and histochemistry studies of organs and diseases of (neurergus microspilotus and n. kaiseri)
1. to determine whether difference in birth body mass influenced growth performance in pipistrellus kuhlii we studied a total of 12 captive-born neonates. bats were assigned to two body mass groups: light birth body mass (lbw: 0.89 ± 0.05, n=8) and heavy birth body mass (hbw: 1.35 ± 0.08, n=4). heavier body mass at birth was associated with rapid postnatal growth (body mass and forearm length) ...
