A nitrate-inducible GARP family gene encodes an auto-repressible transcriptional repressor in rice.
Nitrogen is the most important macronutrient in plants and its supply induces responses in gene expression, metabolism and developmental processes. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying the nitrogen responses remain poorly understood. Here we show that the supply of nitrate but not ammonium immediately induces the expression of a transcriptional repressor gene in rice, designated NIGT1 (...
متن کاملThe GARP gene encodes a new member of the family of leucine-rich repeat-containing proteins.
We have characterized a new human gene, named GARP, localized in the 11q14 chromosomal region. GARP comprises two coding exons, is expressed as two major transcripts of 4.4 and 2.8 kilobases, respectively, and encodes a putative transmembrane protein of 662 amino acids, the extracellular portion of which is almost entirely made of leucine-rich repeats. The molecular weight of the protein immuno...
متن کاملAP4 encodes a c-MYC-inducible repressor of p21.
In the majority of human tumors, expression of the c-MYC oncogene becomes constitutive. Here, we report that c-MYC directly regulates the expression of AP4 via CACGTG motifs in the first intron of the AP4 gene. Induction of AP4 was required for c-MYC-mediated cell cycle reentry of anti-estrogen arrested breast cancer cells and mitogen-mediated repression of the CDK inhibitor p21. AP4 directly r...
متن کاملROS1, a Repressor of Transcriptional Gene Silencing in Arabidopsis, Encodes a DNA Glycosylase/Lyase
Mutations in the Arabidopsis ROS1 locus cause transcriptional silencing of a transgene and a homologous endogenous gene. In the ros1 mutants, the promoter of the silenced loci is hypermethylated, which may be triggered by small RNAs produced from the transgene repeats. The transcriptional silencing in ros1 mutants can be released by the ddm1 mutation or the application of the DNA methylation in...
متن کاملIdentification of a Cryphonectria parasitica laccase gene promoter element involved in cycloheximide-inducible, hypovirus-repressible transcriptional activation.
The gene lac-1, encoding the enzyme laccase, is the best characterized of a number of genes in the chestnut blight fungus, Cryphonectria parasitica, that are repressed by hypoviruses, a group of virulence-attenuating mycoviruses. lac-1 has also been shown to be transcriptionally activated by low concentrations of the translational inhibitor cycloheximide (CHX) and by the immunosuppressant cyclo...
