c-myc Suppression in Burkitt's lymphoma cells.
The purpose of the study was to elucidate how DNA tetraplex (also referred to as G-quadruplex)-forming oligonucleotides mediate suppression of the human c-myc gene at the level of transcription initiation. A 22-base-long oligonucleotide, which is rich in guanines and folds into an intrastrand DNA tetraplex under physiological conditions, was administered to a Burkitt's lymphoma cell line overex...
متن کاملc-Myc proteolysis by the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway: stabilization of c-Myc in Burkitt's lymphoma cells.
The c-Myc oncoprotein is a transcription factor which is a critical regulator of cellular proliferation. Deregulated expression of c-Myc is associated with many human cancers, including Burkitt's lymphoma. The c-Myc protein is normally degraded very rapidly with a half-life of 20 to 30 min. Here we demonstrate that proteolysis of c-Myc in vivo is mediated by the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway. In...
متن کاملRearrangements of c-myc and c-abl genes in tumour cells in Burkitt's lymphoma.
Rearrangements of oncogenes c-myc and c-abl were detected by non-radioactive hybridisation in a case of Burkitt's lymphoma/leukaemia. The surface phenotype of Burkitt's cells were positive for CD19, CD20, HLA-DR, CD14, CD33 and surface immunoglobulin markers. Although cytogenetic analysis was not performed, the c-myc and heavy immunoglobulin genes had the same 14.2 kilobase EcoRI molecular size...
متن کاملNuclear Binding and Half-Lives
Nuclear Forces. Protons give the nucleus of an atom a net positive charge. So, why doesn’t the nucleus explode? Nuclear stability is possible because the particles in the nucleus are each tiny magnets, and magnets can be arranged to attract one another. When the particles inside the nucleus have specific locations, the forces from electrical charge can be in balance with the magnetic forces fro...
متن کاملcloning of c-myc gene in embryonic stem cells
embryonic stem cells (escs) are pluripotent, self-renewing cells. these cells can be used in applications such as cell therapy, drug discovery, disease modelling, and the study of cellular differentiation. in this experimental study embryonic stem cells cultured in the laboratory and were amplified. total rna was extracted from cells and converted to cdna by reverse transcription-polymerase cha...
