Role of Aberrant Alternative Splicing in Cancer
Alternative splicing can alter genome sequence and as a consequence, many genes change to oncogenes. This event can also affect protein function and diversity. The growing number of study elucidate the pathological influence of impaired alternative splicing events on numerous disease including cancer. Here, we would like to highlight the significant role of alternative splicing in cancer biolog...
متن کاملCoevolution of positively selected IZUMO1 and CD9 in rodents: evidence of interaction between gamete fusion proteins?
Proteins involved in sexual reproduction are known to evolve rapidly, often as the result of positive Darwinian selection, although the selective forces driving such adaptive changes are poorly understood. A process of coevolution between proteins in male and female gametes may promote rapid divergence of fertilization proteins. In the mouse, only two proteins have been shown so far to be essen...
متن کاملthe study of aaag repeat polymorphism in promoter of errg gene and its association with the risk of breast cancer in isfahan region
چکیده: سرطان پستان دومین عامل مرگ مرتبط با سرطان در خانم ها است. از آنجا که سرطان پستان یک تومور وابسته به هورمون است، می تواند توسط وضعیت هورمون های استروئیدی شامل استروژن و پروژسترون تنظیم شود. استروژن نقش مهمی در توسعه و پیشرفت سرطان پستان ایفا می کند و تاثیر خود را روی بیان ژن های هدف از طریق گیرنده های استروژن اعمال می کند. اما گروه دیگری از گیرنده های هسته ای به نام گیرنده های مرتبط به ا...
15 صفحه اولOocyte-triggered dimerization of sperm IZUMO1 promotes sperm–egg fusion in mice
Sperm-egg fusion is indispensable for completing mammalian fertilization. Although the underlying molecular mechanisms are poorly understood, requirement of two spermatozoon factors, IZUMO1 and SPACA6, and two oocyte factors, CD9 and the IZUMO1 counter-receptor JUNO, has been proven by gene disruption, and the binding of cells to an oocyte can be reconstituted by ectopic expression of IZUMO1. H...
متن کاملEvolution of alternative splicing after gene duplication.
Alternative splicing and gene duplication are two major sources of proteomic function diversity. Here, we study the evolutionary trend of alternative splicing after gene duplication by analyzing the alternative splicing differences between duplicate genes. We observed that duplicate genes have fewer alternative splice (AS) forms than single-copy genes, and that a negative correlation exists bet...
