Alternatively spliced androgen receptor variants.
Alternative splicing is an important mechanism for increasing functional diversity from a limited set of genes. Deregulation of this process is common in diverse pathologic conditions. The androgen receptor (AR) is a steroid receptor transcription factor with functions critical for normal male development as well as the growth and survival of normal and cancerous prostate tissue. Studies of AR ...
متن کاملNucleosome Positioning and NDR Structure at RNA Polymerase III Promoters
Chromatin is structurally involved in the transcriptional regulation of all genes. While the nucleosome positioning at RNA polymerase II (pol II) promoters has been extensively studied, less is known about the chromatin structure at pol III promoters in human cells. We use a high-resolution analysis to show substantial differences in chromatin structure of pol II and pol III promoters, and betw...
متن کاملSelective secretion of alternatively spliced fibronectin variants
We demonstrate that the alternatively spliced variable (V) region of fibronectin (FN) is required for secretion of FN dimers during biosynthesis. Alternative splicing of the V segment of the rat FN transcript generates three subunit variants (V120, V95, V0) that differ by the inclusion or omission of an additional 120 or 95 amino acids. We are exploring the functions of this segment by expressi...
متن کاملYeast expression vectors using RNA polymerase III promoters.
A series of Saccharomyces cerevisiae--Escherichia coli shuttle vectors is described in which small RNAs can be stably expressed in yeast from two different promoters for RNA polymerase III transcription. The vectors are available in either high- or low-copy-number forms with either URA3, HIS3, or TRP1 selection markers, and are based on a previously described set of plasmid vectors [Sikorski an...
